It's taking a look at the darker, more uncomfortable side of Australian history.

I am finding harder to play Fallout 4, at this stage i thought i would be at least 20 hours in but i just can't play it for more than an hour.

Humorous self quote to self response post content ratio.

"I'm taking a look at the darkest side of Australian history...Fallout 4 playing time."

That feeling when you accidentally sell a legendary silenced pistol to a trader and you forget which one you sold it too now I have to find it or craft a similar one.

Also Gun Nut 3 + Lvl 25 is far too high a requirement to craft a silenced sniper rifle.

Edit: Further to this, you just know after buying it off me for 100 caps they are going to charge 2000+ for me to buy it back.

If you loot any silenced weapons you can take the silencer mod off the weapon to use in another in the weapon workbench

Went along to Chisel last night. Barnes and Alain Prost's doppelgänger have still got it. Moss in particular. Voice still as smooth as ever, which surprised me given pub rockers can sound like Lurline Lumpkin as they eke out their last paycheques.

Special mention to Grinspoon though, played a solid 45 minutes-long set to open proceedings with a stack of their back catalogue. Gotta say, growing up when they were in their pomp they never floated my boat, but they were pretty freaking speccy. Phil came back on later and sang Cheap Wine & A Three-Legged Goat with Jim which initially illicited groans from the bogan element (pretty much everyone bar 4.2 people), but they warmed to him as it was clear Jim thinks pretty highly of him.

8/10.

Moss didn't pull rank and play Tucker's Daughter nor Telephone Booth.

1/10.

They were up here last week.
Didn't go but the review I got from some who did is that they were as good as ever.

I believe the 1985 Ryder Cup was played there

What a cesspool. Should the club look to focus on other mediums (which as far as I am aware...) which don't seem to attract such halfwits? It's not a great look.

I mean, there's no doubt trolls aplenty on twitter but from what I've seen commenters there seem to at least have some kind of awareness unlike the above.

Halfwits have money, with which to exchange for a PA membership.
That's the reason they use a facebook page

The percentage of those who know less than nothing is staggering for people connected to the internet.

When Mitchell won the first 3km TT of the preseason someone was all, "umm how can this be? we delisted Mitchell" and it had a stack of likes.

How even why?

This was probably covered days ago but Charlie Sheen is HIV Positive? Wow it's always the last ones you expect right? Who'd have thought a lifestyle of drugs and pr0n stars would put you at risk?

Probably didn't stop him from ****ing anything that moved.

Really feel for Bree Olson.

With everyone going on about how great it is, I thought "Maybe I'm wrong and it's not going to be a buggy, weak game with no story and be really engaging."

I've played for a couple of hours but nothing has made me think this isn't Fallout 3 with a new hat. You'd have to be a Fallout fanboy to think it's worth the hype.

GET A BODY BAAAAG, YEAAAAAHHH.

In other news, I just told the HR manager that her job is like Homer coaching the springfield kids NFL team. "I like your hussle, that's why it was so hard to cut you."

She wasn't impressed.

So that's why all the retirement homes were at half capacity last night.

My brother in law got through to his second interview for a marketing position in a very big company in SA. The next day HR rang him and said they loved him, thought he had great credentials, and he interviewed well. But they declined to offer him the job as they said the manager is a bit of a prick, and they didn't think my brother in law would get along with him.
Has to be the most amateur thing I've heard from a HR person, and I generally hold those types in quite low regard anyway.

I understand why there needs to be a HR division in large companies to look after staffing levels and movement etc, but interviewing should really, really be done by people who will actually manage the staff member they are hiring where possible.

Nah this HR manager is a hell of a chick. Works her ass off restructuring organisations, handling the unions, managing massive cultural and reformational change. The shit she has to deal with is top tier rubbish. Every business unit she gets deployed to hates her to begin with because she is a harbinger of change, then everyone loves her after its all done. I don't envy her job, she cops it. Fiercely battles lawyers on the phone regularly with aplomb.

What type of person does get along with a prick? A campaigner of course
