@feelgoodtale Apart from a recycled story, since the invention of cordless angle grinders NO bike is safe outdoors. Get a folding bike & take it inside with you.

@RetroMemoriesHQ Absolutely the first thing I’d install after the Drivers. My thought was “Why would people use a separate app for email? Crazy.” Yahoo was odd & Google was still an idea years away.

@stephenRB4 Soccer. 2 hours of shuffling around for 1 goal. Boring as f@&$. And the money the players get is an insult to surgeons, social workers, doctors, nurses & other essential workers. FUKM.

@aussiesoph I actually buy toilet paper called “Who gives a crap”. Quality paper made from bamboo, no trees needed or harmed. Gags written over the box, fun brand & seriously good. Great value too, not wrapped loose to feel soft.

[Brook Valentine @brookmeister]

@kelly_ques I did. Very similar to pencil erasers cooked in a buttery garlic sauce. No flavour from the snails, so I would say very underwhelming. Most probably a poverty induced meat alternative?

@theoztrucker To draw a map, got out the perforated paper pattern of Aus., then heavily drew chalk on the board, wiped it up with the duster, then banged the duster over the holes. Remove paper then join the dots! 1976

@kelly_ques Living in an overheated, desiccated, dried out climate with people saying “someone will fix it”. Petty shit on tv, idiots listened to despite low IQ, still moaning about homeless numbers, housing, kids in poverty… nothing will get fixed.

@aussiewongm Not sure it’s that big an issue. I’m 60, lived in 14 houses across 4 countries, owned or used 12 washing machines, and I have never had a hose burst or split, nor know of any friends who had either. How bad are hoses where you live? Didn’t think it’s a thing anymore.

@LachlanB_ Or, when you see the lensing effect of light going around the plane and splitting, falling on the cloud as a rainbow. I’ve seen it too in a flight while everyone else was sleeping. Nice to think it was just for me.

@MissAlly_01 Only 3 kinds of people in the world… those who can count and those who can’t.

@AusTravelDaily Did it a fortnight ago. Fine, seats could have better bum cushioning. WiFi on but no connection, I’m prepared to pay for it as advertised, but guy next to me said “I fly this route every year, it never works”. Thats sad, they are missing $$.

@taipan168 I approach it as... wear clothes as comfortable as pyjamas, but neat enough to eat in a café in. Multi coloured top helps disguise food spills, darker pants for same reason, and keep the crutch loose... it gets hot down there after a few hours & you want loose for sleeping.

@peachastro When the guy saw the cars approach the country house & went towards them (?) then got in a car & drive towards them again, to get her, then what?? Lame. She was no threat, should’ve driven away from them! Interesting premise but will never watch again.

@kylecordes @OutofSpecDetail I drive a MG ZST… the intermittent/ auto wipers always play up, keep wiping when dry, fail to start until you can’t see & ignore the base intermittent setting. Love the car, but the wiper software is shit.

@Bint_e_Q @isaacrrr7 AI rubbish photo… B52s have always had 4 twin engine pods. This plane would struggle to take off. Sad event, yes, but don’t honour them with this crap, it’s disrespectful.

[Brook Valentine @brookmeister]

@DanKretzer @hollywoodscifi I think it was because he was a surgeon, amongst other things, that he wore the bow tie. But yes, odd wardrobe match.

[Brook Valentine @brookmeister]

@antiderivative1 @hollywoodscifi Yes, sadly, but yes.

@BillHuntBits Loved this show as a youngster. Something I found… https://t.co/lnWukrRDer
