Mega Thread The Random Thoughts Thread Part 1

[Dobie G]

We beat Norwood in 1955 and 1957 - saw both of those Big Events.
The opposition were the ones with dementia on those two Saturdays.
Double dementia.

As for my recent memory - I recall 1962, 1963 and 1965.

Funny... I have a blank when it comes to 1960, 1961, 1964 (especially 1964), 1966 -
Then comes an extended blank spot....

Yes 67 and 68 ditto and '66 for some reason is a double blank.

Oh.

I thought you might be really flexible.

Not even in the athletic sense, Dingle.

I'm going to go on the record as someone who hates fireworks and sees absolutely no point to them. Do not understand how anyone over the age of 8 can get a boner over that shit. All they do is freak out dogs and every year plenty jump fences and flee. That said anyone who leaves their dog outside, particularly on a night such as this, is a dick.

 

[Trewth]

Because I've drank fanta since they made it 'all natural'.

That reminds me, whoever ****ed with the Mountain Dew formula needs to be donkey punched in the throat.

Now to take it back to nespresso's, I love that shit. I like to put middle 'espresso' setting pods on the larger 'lungo' setting, cos I likes more coffee's. It drives my wife insane ("it won't taste right!") but meh, yolo etc.

I've been waiting to reach the age where I dislike fireworks, but for some reason it's never happened. I can take or leave the visual element, but I guess I just like noisy shit.

We get invited to stand on the roof of the Shangri-Las Hotel overlooking Sydney Harbour every year.

I went once.

Tonight I am looking after my daughter while my wife goes out as the thought of going out amongst all the once a year ****wits makes my head explode.

.... is a dick.

Awesome.

Nope, the council website mentions a "New Year’s Eve Bar & Beer Garden", but no maps, dammit!

So they've renamed Hindley Street then.

Every other night it's just "You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious."

Just bought a Nespresso Lattissima coffee machine.... Pretty happy.

I was sceptical about Nespresso until I got a Lattissima for my studio.
Good coffee plus very quick and easy.

Haven't settled on a favourite capsule yet but the Roma and Arpeggio are pretty good.

 

[bomberclifford]

Same one as me. Awesome product, just for the love of god remember to clean out the milk thing. Else your coffee will taste like ass for weeks. NEVER use cleaning agents/suds/washing liquid because it will also store the taste of that, and it will taste like ass.

Wash in water only - and for the love of god don't let it sit. It will even go off in the fridge after a day or two.

Quoted for emphasis. Need to express some steam through that pipe before you make your coffee too. Old milk cheese doesn't work well with the café au lait.

 

[Eddie Dingle]

...I got a Lattissima for my studio...

Hope your boyfriend likes it as much as you do.

 

[Eddie Dingle]

...café au lait...

Good god.

 

[bomberclifford]

How do you know what "ass" tastes like?

Tastes a bit like donkey.

If finny's allowed to be a fireworks contrarian then I might as well come out and say that coffee (and the great neverending cultural coffee discussion) bores the living shit out of me.

 

[Doctor Feel]

Hope your boyfriend likes it as much as you do.

Eddie is just mad that the proletariat can't afford such luxury.

 

[bomberclifford]

Hope your boyfriend likes it as much as you do.

Not as much as he likes my De'Longhi.

Good god.

Chill Dingle. Was a sarcastic use of le francais.

I have no choice in the matter. I'm addicted.

Is that the guy from Blink 182?

Any more chilled and I would be in a coma my dear sweet Boomer

Spot on man I mean raman.

New tatt is itchy as f**k

Everybody's a barista ...

 

[Ford Fairlane]

New tatt is itchy as f**k

Is that the one between your shoulder blades? Tres inconvenience.

Indeed... Not allowed to scratch however.

At least the itch will eventually go away

I like one cup per day, in the morning. But coffee "culture" makes me want to kick people in the shins.

"Hey Tobias, how was your trip to Europe?"

"It was ok, but the fact I couldn't get a decent coffee in Dusseldorf pretty much ruined my entire trip".
