    Home & Garden Buying a home.

    It is a catch 22 in Perth and also the South West at the moment. I'd avoid buying at the moment because I believe that there will be a price correction in 2022/23 as borders drop and COVID issues begin to move to the side however the rental market also sucks.

    The Perth Thread - Part 4

    Even if Perth branding wasn't allowed for the GF her argument about the Optus sponsorship is still idiotic.

    Certified Legendary Thread Chrisco Hampers - who in their right mind buys them ?

    Are we seeing more young people in hospital in total or more young people as a proportion of those in hospital?

    Society & Culture Things in life you just don't understand - Part 4

    https://www.wsj.com/articles/heavier-passengers-on-planes-mean-new-safety-limits-for-airlines-11623243606?mod=e2tw Why aren't fat people charged more? They disadvantage other customers and the airlines themselves. Maybe do it by BMI or other measure so taller people aren't unfairly singled out...

    Boomers deepen housing problems

    It would be easy for me to say boomers should do this and that but this is a good post. For some people, buying and selling houses is largely transactional, for others it involves moving from social groups, or away from your GP or whatever, so I am sympathetic to that.

    I'm Johnny_Knoxville and this is my opinion on the Australian travel ban

    If you want to catch COVID there are far better options than Bali, entry requirements for foreigners in particular aren't exactly loose. Of course it is an easy target for politicians, media outlets and bogans who do not have an understanding of the world beyond Kuta.

    Coronavirus 2020 / Worldwide (Stats live update in OP) Part 5

    Well I agree with you to a point but it is a quite a s**t example to set, especially when her state has been lagging in vaccinations anyway.

    I can't see how anyone could defend Palaszczuk with a straight face in regards to the vaccine choice and the explanation.

    Always a laugh when anti vax or COVID is the flu types lecture other people about being sheep without a hint of self reflection.

    So predictable too. Australians as a general rule only are motivated when something may directly affect them.

    Coronavirus 2020 / Worldwide (Stats live update in OP) Part 5

    This sort of dramatic language from politicians is not helpful in my opinion. We as the general public have been dealing with COVID-19 news for well over a year now.

    Micra clearly at fault, for lack of awareness if nothing else.

    People who come to a complete stop at roundabouts despite no oncoming traffic need to be stripped of their licenses.

    Things that sh*t me the fifteenth part

    No doubt, which leads to a bunch of moaning from other parents, which leads to the "everyone is a winner" mentally which creates a culture of mediocrity. You should be able to appreciate the success of others without feeling insecure. Tall poppy syndrome in this country often goes too far.

    Things that sh*t me the fifteenth part

    How would anyone else know where your kid lands on a NAPLAN test unless you are actively disclosing it to others ? Parents are weird. Putting pressure on your child to do well because of your own insecurities is sad. Wrapping kids in a bubble and protecting them from any scrutiny is also sad.

    Things that sh*t me the fifteenth part

    Parents who whinge about NAPLAN being too stressful for kids. If your kid cannot handle a generic test at school, you are failing as a parent.

    Society & Culture Loser addictions

    You would be incorrect here. I dabbled in it during high school like many do but nothing beyond that. The "depends on the person" bit is based on my experience with dope smokers in my life, some of whom are creative and functional individuals while others are basically excuse makers who either...

    Business & Finance Your advertising sh*tlist - what TV ads have annoyed you so much you will never ever buy their product?

    Anything with squeaky, annoying kids, NAB mini legends for example. Also anything with a cringeworthy feel good and/or woke message like "smile strong". My list is actually short though because I do not watch much TV or stream much except for some sport and some things on YouTube or Twitch.

    Describe the worst ******* person you ever had to work with

    Pompous private girls school type with wealthy parents and the typical high opinion of herself. At least we had the same tactic of dealing with each other, radio silence :D
