Banter TRTTT Part 16 - How good are fingerless gloves

[TazD]

IS SKIN CANCER ACTUALLY REAL??? WHO KNOWS

Lol, when they said that I literally felt like this

I had smashed avo on toast for brekky today - how Aussie is that! Only plain wholemeal bread though, not sourdough, so not fully authentic.

Should've made damper.

My nephew whom is indigenous, 20 years old. I work with him. I said whats your thoughts on Australia Day?
He looked at me with no conviction or opinion. He doesn't give Fs. As do the other young lads I work with, dont give Fs. Just want to get on the beers and pipes and do burnouts.
Its us old campaigners that are opinionated and bring it up year after year after year. Its boring.

 

[SparklingAle69]

Getting a melanoma to stick to it to the wokeys. Yes. YES. This is some good Australia Day posting.

No education back then Dyls.

 

[SparklingAle69]

If anyone can get a double drunk on let me know.

I believe it's a biological impossibility.

Does it count on Australia Day edge?

Yep I don’t even remember sunscreen as a thing to do in the 80s.

People used to actually just laugh at epic sunburn.

Not anymore

Sunscreen wasn't a thing.
Remember coming home looking like a rock lobster, and my dad would put vinegar on it.
It would sting like a bitch for 10 or so minutes and stink for a while longer, but a couple of days later you'd have a tan to die for.

And the most heinous peeling a week later. Yuk

Goes to show the mods here have way more intelligence than you, thankfully you're not one, and that's as light as I can put it.

for what it's worth I am glad you're back but in the fine tradition of aus day conflict I'm taking pot shots everywhere

 

[JimmyBC]

Fukc this bring on winter

 

[Ford Fairlane]

I remember my old man dousing my sunburn in vinegar and smelling like a 20 of chips freshly unwrapped from its newspaper

Age wearies you and wises you. If you're young you'll get it. If you're older I pity you're aggressive nature.

 

[Doctor Feel]

Fair effort this!

Peeling skin with sunburn. We had an old Australian Terrior called Charlie. I would peel my skin off and he would have no qualms getting it down him. Champion

 

[SparklingAle69]

Back in the day he just wandered the streets living his best life until he wanted a drink or feed. He got bowled over by a car when he was ten and didn't leave the nest after that. We had to put him to Rainbow Bridge when he was 16. Epic dog was Charlie

get robbed at dinner with the 20% surcharge.

Just got slugged that on a pizza delivery.

It's unostrayan.

 

[EskimoPAFC]

I love the new aus day tradition of arguing with buffoons on the internet about changing the date or not

That being said, if it means so much to you, go march with the Nazis and I hope you get heat stroke

It sure beats the new Christmas tradition where suddenly the least interesting bloke you know wants to argue about how Die Hard is a Christmas movie

I can't remember when the old slip, slop, slap ads (since expanded) first started, but before that people didn't so much use sun screen as tanning oil, so you'd baste yourself up like the Christmas flippin' turkey!

Around '81, I reckon. Took a few more years of sunburn and blisters to sink in, tho. Thx, Mum!

80s were great for cartoon ads driving public health education and shit.

Did that fat bastard Norm ever lose weight?
