First house party I went to in High School. Thought it was going to be something out of American Pie.

80% of my colleagues are female, lol. It's human rights though, so bit of an anomaly.

The advice of Trip McNeely covers this thread nicely

I would get banned if I did.

I would get banned if I did.

So what, you'll get street cred, I'm banned from the main board and pull roots on that basis alone.

Tourism Management? I knew a girl that said she was in Tourism Management, her actual job was hosing off Asian spew from the back of Turtles in Cairns and she looked like Randy Savage had mated with a Snow Leopard.

For months on Friday nights we would with 3 interns from the tourist operator next door. Smoke blunts drink Cooper's and such.

They sat behind a desk all day answering the phone and selling holidays. You've never seen three more amazing beauty's in one place. All up I got to know about six of them. All about 12/10 compared to Australians.

One worked as a stripper to.pay bills. They get a little over 150 a week as an intern. They know this when they start thier degree in thier country. They have to find accommodation themselves. Then food and party money. They do know how to party

When you've tasted the best you find the rest a let down.

Some did get shitty jobs cleaning buses but they all got free holidays somewhere in oz after the internship.

What was remarkable about them was they had beautiful souls. Were generally really good people. Not like Australian chicks with thier self entitled bullshit

Losing your virginity owns this thread.

Pardon my gloating but I must be the exception to the rule because I actually recall my first time being one of my better performances of the early days. It was the next few times after that though that I’d rather forget

I have a photo of a 6 foot blonde european beauty who was tried out for the Olympics in swimming , wearing nothing but one of those vacuum cleaner back packs with the nozzle next to a private body part of mine.

I don't share it with anyone out of respect for the person who has trust in me to leave me with such a memory.

The vacuum cleaner a let down compared to her

An AFL Grand Final. I had always wanted to go to one and I thought it would be something special. But it turned out to be just another footy game at the MCG, which you can do any weekend of the season. The atmosphere wasn't as good as big games in the regular season because of all the neutrals/corporates.

Seeing my English soccer team play a couple of cup finals at Wembley was special as you never normally see your them play there. The fans of each team get a lot more tickets than the AFL gives to the fans of the competing clubs.

This is not a post I wanted to read two days prior to attending my first AFL Grand Final.

Oops sorry. I hope you enjoy it.

First time I got on a plane I expected it to be packed like it is on TV/movies, but it was probably only 30% full.

First time I got on a plane, I was surprised at how noisy planes are. So quiet on TV.

Airplane food.

Not that it looks great in movies or videos, or anything like that, but at least it looks neatly packed and a bit appetizing.

 

[Scotland]

Airline food is great... for the first 5 or 10 rows.

Everyone else gets food comparable to cafeteria/frozen dinners. Which is about what you'd expect feeding a few hundred people at once cheaply.

 

[Cruyff14]

Actually don't mind airline food. I've had some pretty decent meals.

 

[Scotland]

It's OK. Depends on the airline and what is on the menu for that route.

It is what it is though. When you're feeding 162 people (Boeing 737-800) row by row then it's not like you are getting a fresh cooked meal from a restaurant sitting in 24E.

 

[Gough]

Gin and valium are always a better option on long haul.

I treated myself to Business Class to Europe and back recently. It was ****ing awesome. Each meal they would lay out a tablecloth, a selection of bread rolls and metal knives and forks. You get starter, main and desert and they were all like something you would get in a top restaurant. The food in the lounges was decent too.

Then there's the seat that goes completely horizontal which means you get a heap of sleep. On a couple of the flights I had a private cubicle area that had a guest seat at the end. Plus you get priority for check in, security, boarding, disembarking and your luggage comes out first. I was expecting Business Class to be good but it probably exceeded my expectations.

 

[Scotland]

Yep international business class does not belong ITT.

Domestic business class, though. $2k to fly to Melbourne when it's not GF week? GTFO.

I thought breastfeeding would be beautiful and natural and easy. It ******* hurt like a mother****** and was one of the hardest things I've ever tried to do and then I had to stop anyway because my baby was losing weight instead of gaining

You didn't get a visit from a Maternal Health, Breastfeeding Nazi, Nurse? My wife was the same as you, in the end we switched to the bottle. I was almost tempted one day to jump my post office counter, grab the nurse, who was basically bullying and belittling my wife, by the hair and drag her out my front door and give her one to go on with on her way out said door.
