Well fair enough but I'll stick with my credit union thanks. The banks can get stuffed!!!

I get my loans through CU's (lower rates) and hold my shares and transactions through big banks. That said, banks offer certain things to that CU's cant and will also loan to people with less stringent restrictions, it's good to harness the power of a bank for certain things. This will be changing shortly though, as i'll be getting a wealth package with CBA and this will provide me with interest rates and various deals that are better than what the CU's can offer me.

Does it matter if they care? If the effect is what it is?

The effect would be so negligible it may as well round back to zero, plus I'm a cynic of the less paper = environmentally friendlier. Obviously people will be spending more time on electronics in its place.

I don't disagree that it is their right as a business to implement whatever policy they see fit, but it is far from the coup de grace some are painting it as, and as a customer that has invested a significant... Well maybe not to them but by the average Aussies definition of a significant amount of dosh and am very satisfied with the services provided, this one time I'm the leftie hippy cynic.

Keep in mind it's more than just paper. Theoretically it's the transport costs and pollution associated with it as well.

I want my statements by carrier pidgeon.

Hulk Hogan's attorney should be able to afford a better wig.

Carrier pigeon? Not on my watch! Are you gonna wash the cars?

As I touched on earlier too, transport and pollution is killing jobs of posties. Courier services might have picked up with the rise of internet business, but your traditional postie is being cut by measures like these.

Posties are finished, I don't think anything will stop that, everything will be digital soon enough. Supply chains are an incredibly fickle thing. Take online food shopping for example, no need for a checkout person - but there is a need for someone to pick, pack, load and deliver the order.

Courier companies on the other hand are well and truly on the way up, online shopping is king.

I see my Aussie Post parcel delivery guy on average about twice a week. He won't be losing his job any time soon.

The demise of the traditional postman will be bad news for dogs everywhere.

No loose MILFs rocked up.

And my brother-in-law's daughter wasn't the skank glamour she was cracked up to be.

But some random dude at the pub bought Robin a round of drinks worth $80.

So, um, yeah.

Work is gonna be fun when I sober up and the hangover really kicks in...

 

[SilenceOz]

Well Im about 5 episodes in to Daredevil and I'd be very happy to see a Punisher spin off.
Jon Bernthal is quite good in the role which surprises me because I thought he was fair shit in TWD

 

[Magpiespower]

Shane was awesome. Rick Grimes can GAGF. Two times!

Finished Daredevil season 2 yesterday afternoon. Loved it.

Well now he will, yeah.

Have you any idea how much damage feral pigeons do the the environment and what a health risk they pose?

Im just under half way mark, there's a few clunky mentions of Jones, I wished they would stop towing it and just have her in an episode or something.

2 episodes in. Loving Punisher!

Haven't been motivated enough to watch Jones yet. Might be next on the list.

Just been watching Arrested Development so read that as analrapist. If yoni massage therapist is a real job now I'm predicting a decrease in the number of male medical students majoring in OBGYN.

I guess the capitalist answer would be to get the unemployed posties to catch and eat feral pigeons.

The vibe I got from the Daredevil season 2 trailer was that the punisher had been remodelled in to some sort of Dark Knight Joker style character. Is that how it turned out?

Nope.
He is a simple character played well, war vet with a single minded focus to put a bullet in the head of every gang member in the city.

Currently at the Between the Buried and Me gig @ the Roxy in LA. First time I've seen them - colour me impressed.

Hmmm. The "you're one tragedy away from me" line in the trailer reeks of Heath Ledgers Joker but I'll take you word for it.

I suppose it could be viewed that way, the Punisher is just Daredevil without the guilt of killing criminals.

The difference between Matt and the Punisher is, would it be better to permanently remove the gangs by murdering them OR temporarily remove them by arrest.
