Mega Thread The Random Thoughts Thread Part 1

Usually this doesn't even work because you only attract developers who are generally extremely stingy.

Think it said the land has been rezoned and council is looking to build a train station so I think that's the idea? Could be wrong. They look to get 4 mill each in theory. This was Sydney as well.

Good point I'd have to mull it over, I don't dislike Ian's voice really it's distinctive it just didn't fit with the doors.

Ay at least it's not Axl singing AC/DC.

The cash office lady at work had the biggest rant to me today, lost her shit. Been a lifelong fan (she's from Elizabeth you know) and seen them every tour, once held a wake for Bon Scott when she was living in Elizabeth. Just came to see me for something then lost her shit, calling him a ranga woman bashing ginger campaigner and she's done with them. Done.

Then ranted why they should have gotten Swanny, who is apparently Barnsies lesser known brother, or Barnsy himself. Then she reminded me she's from Elizabeth one last time and went back to work.

It's funny because both are equally beneath contempt.

Some useless knowledge for ya Bon Scott, Barnsey & Swanny were all in the band Fratenity at different stages... what a great bogan fun fact

You weren't formerly one of those filthy, grubby poor people, were you? You fraud. Don't expect to be invited back to any of my mansion orgies.

I just got richer.

Went to the pub for a quick beer and backed a horse called "Just Spec Mod" at Gosford and turned fiddy into freefiddy.

Go Spec mod go.

Ironic as Fraternity didn't exactly make bogan music, prog rock hippies they were. There's a classic photoshoot of them running in the Bon days kicking a footy around in the hills.

'Straya.

So have you asked her out yet?

She's happily married. I used to go over her house and have coffee and smokes that weren't tobacco that made me feel funny. We then discussed classic rock, she would play Jeff Beck loudly, and I'd drool over their guitar collection. A Gibson Corvette in every colour.

Then he had a stoke, poor guy. He's recovering now. One of the reasons she's stayed in Broken Hill she reckons is the health and rehab is amazing.

I'm afraid, as much as I don't understand his appointment in his new role, I don't feel the same way abot Axl as she does. I think he's alright.

That's a dealbreaker.

Yeah look, I'm leftist by nature but all this "BAWW COST OF LIVING" shit you hear today is absolute muffcabbage.

Sure, council rates and utilities will always be an unwelcome whack for lower socio-economic types, but by the same token, there has never been greater access to welfare of all kinds (i pay tax and have kids, give me my tax back and some AND maintain health, education, roads, police and military pls) and even your average povlov is usually replete with multiple of the following: brand name clothing, Foxtel, 3 or 4 wireless devices, wi-fi, a flatscreen TV or two, a fridge full of booze, smokes, non-generic foods of all descriptions.

Having grown up poor and seen my mother work her fingers to the bone to cling to her home when interest rates were 17-18% - indirectly self-inflicted mind, because her choice of men (chiefly my father) was ****ing terrible - those roughly 35-40 and below who think this a tough economy or a capitalist dystopia are freaking kidding themselves.

As with any given generation there are genuine battlers who are struggling to keep their heads above water, but by and large it's the cost of luxuries rather than living that are the primary issue.

tl;dr took a left turn at albuquerque

think you'll find if they've got all that crap they're selling drugs m8

your average povlov is on the dole which is WELL below the poverty line. you'll struggle to have enough to pay rent and provide food, before adding anything else.
