What i don't understand (well i do), and what shits me is Melbourne Storm/Craig Bellamy propping up the ******* league. This guy will have a star he has built from nothing that will go back home cos hes a bitch for nothing. Ok that's fine, so we will go to the feeder club and pick up some rookie scrub and turn him into a ******* champ just so he can return home to the Broncos. Ok, thats fine, so we will find another scrub on the scrapheap and turn him into a ******* champ and then the lil bitch wants to go home, so we let him go. RINSE AND ******* REPEAT.
That whole system is a crock and one of the very few things the AFL has done right in the last 20 years is not allow that. Oh wait.

Didn't McLean jump before halfway?

The AC in office buildings sucks, you get hit and cold spots so on any given day someone is sitting under a cold breeze with a jumper on while elsewhere it feels like a sauna

Years ago we worked at a place where the AC control was on the wall, it was a call centre and most of us were around 21.

One of the guys used to turn the heating up, wait for the girls to take their jackets off, then turn it down

He'd do this all day

Office building temperature is dependent on the design and layout of the building and the quality/complexity of the A/C system itself. Modern houses with modern split systems can have very different temps per room if you really need it, such as if you are a penguin married to a hippo and have a mixed race polar bear child...

If like in my building the A/C system design and office layout were done independently at different times, then setting it on 21 degrees still means that some offices are freezing and others not simply from vent locations and air flow patterns.

People who actually want it freezing all the time - well they can GTFO.

Watching Underworld on TV the other night. I don't understand how anybody could see this and be like 'yep, that's what sex looks like'. I mean, I'm no expert but the positioning seems a bit off.

I think you're right the knee is in the wrong spot. It should be in the ear

Dang was intended to edit. I don't blame you.

I guess that's as far as my annoyance can go so... where can I take this...

Oh yeah. I don't understand what I'm allegedly paying for both with regards to increased public transport fees and my stupid NBN.
I don't think PT should go up above inflation, it's meant to be a public service, they should stop awarding private contracts and bring it back to one
We're already paying taxes towards it which I have no issue with, I just don't want to pay taxes towards private companies profits because our government can't be bothered running it.

NBN, don't get me started on that monumental political dogs breakfast

Why people go over the top with their Xmas lights on their houses.
We had someone move into our court a few years ago. Big Xmas decorators, lights, reindeer statues, the whole bit. Only one in the history of our court that's ever done it and no one else is following suit, we all think they're a bit weird.
