    Social Science Unpopular Opinions you have (non-football) Part III

    I think it could be a good thing. People follow sport because they played it so I think for women's sport this will be great. But the main thing is community sport and a pathway needs to be built. Women's sport can't go the way of afl or cricket where it's elite pathways and $$$ and everyone...

    Where were you born? Were are your ancestors from? Are you about to trace centuries of histories back and be on the first plane out or are you a hypocrite?

    I'm all for renaming. It is important to acknowledge historical significance. But here's an unpopular opinion. I was born in and of this land in 1983 and love it. If I can appropriate language I'm just as native to it as anyone else and I couldn't give a flying * where anyone else's ancestors...

    Very interesting. And it goes back to the issue of land itself. You own it because the government released it and gave you a title. But who gave the government permission to do that in the first place? Most lands in history have been conquered or claimed. But do we want ever lasting war? At the...

    Society & Culture The BigFooty Guide to getting the non-gender specific person of Your Desire (Part 8)

    Mmmm that's a week. And this is just a few messages. Not like you've stormed round in the middle of the night. Don't know. Let me know when you want to talk message than leave it. If she doesn't respond in a fortnight it's really gone pear shaped

    Computers & Internet Tinder

    From the limited success + more strikeouts -Organise a meet early. Endless chat leads nowhere -If tinder chuck in a flirt/breezy compliment early so you don't get suckered with generic chit chat. Save for hinge I'm going to say after 3 dates things should have led somewhere if the relationship...

    Would apply to most pro sports. No way you go up mountains or most feats they do on pasta and Gatorade. Either way it's not like you shoot epo and are in the tour d France or HGH and are AFL ready. Problem with sports doping is the unequal playing fields. The ones who go stupid with it like...

    Actually saw a photo of me from 8 years ago. Christ I looked young. Slightly younger than at the time. Now I look my age. Have aged a bit. My photo is one I took last week + a holiday shot and some from this summer. Will take my age off and see how that goes.

    Back on myself. No matches. Although I'm barely on. Will keep interaction brief and get a meet up early. (Assuming match). Don't have the energy to stuff around messaging all day.

    While absolutely ******* ridiculous as a football theme song the birds of Tokyo west coast song(obviously with changed lyrics) should be Australia's national anthem. Start with the intro and opening lyrics "Born of pride from isolation etc" Stick with the rest but obviously change lyrics and...

    In the absence of a traditional sauce tomato sauce on pasta is ok. Add some ham spring onion and mushrooms. Delicious

    Things that please me - Part 4

    Indirectly. A good bolagnase is tomato and meat bases. If no tomato paste use tomato sauce and tomatoes. Should just be onions as well with the meat. Maybe garlic.

    If by sugar I assume you mean fructose Was once put on a no sugar (as in anti carb diet for a health issue never again). As to sweet sugar I do try limit. Might have 1 soft drink every couple of days and sweets after dinner if out. On holidays recently one thing I did find helped is if you have...

    The Heat....

    I'm actually feeling it. An interesting article can't link on my phone but a lot of Australian s struggling due to poor design. Homes after heat just turn into saunas. They turn into greenhouses and don't cool. People need cool temperature to sleep. 36+ indoors in some places at night = over...

    Are we really even ready for any disaster?

    Agree with the first paragraph not the second. A wealth Tax will cripple business (if self owned) and retirees. Hell even cash is an asset and considered liquid wealth so you are disincentivising saving. (Maybe not a bad thing to turbo charge spending and growth). GST is partially regressive...

    Are we really even ready for any disaster?

    Uuhhm volcanoes can be quite enormous. If an underground volcanic explosion happened that size it is good night Australia. Hell across the Tasman one of NZs great lakes (bigger than Port Phillip Bay) is an dormant volcano. (formed by an eruption 1000s of years ago.) That blows and bye bye NZ...
