“Dear Bigfooty...

I never thought this would happen to me....”

Clearly you’ve never visited the awkward flirting stories thread.

Off the market - thank God, met a lovely lass who apparently looks a tad like Princes Di or some Royal. Hojuman can confirm

 

[The acurate one]

I so want to post a pic of her, cause it's just plain ridiculous. Oh also knows of my illness and all the s**t I've dealt with. Not an issue for her.

With all of the fun you've been having tao, I hope that she has demanded that you be tested..... for covid-19, of course!

And no, we won't believe that you were 1.5 metres away when you were having your fun!

Oh I so know right . I think I’m punching above everyone’s weight , hence the reason she was single . Speaks fluent French , not sure I mentioned that . And is now a tad filthy, an very proud of her for that .

My dating advice is very simple .... if you’re single, pretend to be someone who women want to be with, cause clearly the normal you isn’t popular

If it's Bigfooty it's more like:

"I knew this was a matter of time..."

Or

"My mama warned me there'd be days like these..."

University union agrees to wage cuts to save 12,000 jobs

www.google.com

News to me , and yeah no !! Geebus they’re saving jobs that no longer exist. Ie Capital Projects across the sector have been cancelled , things like the 150 mil RISE building at Burwood have been “iced”. So what those CP galahs are going to take a hit , but still turn up with nothing to do . Some are on over 150k pa !! .

Same as lecturers, the international’s are gone, so wtf are they going todo ?

For the first time the virus is impacting on me and I don’t like it one bit ! Lol

Surely I can say no and get paid out ?

When I saw that I knew you’d love it. It’s almost like CNN are trolling. Poor kid will pay for this down the track.

Do you know anything about the others? Do they have any actual experts?

Quite a few Saudi/Middle Eastern along with Chinese
Plenty of farmers especially in marginal areas have sold up and the corporations have taken them over

Folks carry on about foreign ownership as if they come with an invading army.

Yet, I would bet the house that the media will roll out a good old Aussie farmer in a flany and akubra to get sympathy
