Society & Culture Things in life you just don't understand - Part 6

[Pistol Night]

Most places have a zero refund policy on smokes.
Rightly so.


I heard Coles do or did give you a refund if half the pack was left .

Open dart surgery has been performed on many packs

 

[Gough]

The illegal darts, think they're less than half the price.

I was talking to an old mate who's a lawyer at the ATO and he said they've been told the cat is out of the bag now and that for every one cheap baccy shop being shut down two are opening, and the police are filthy that this has been allowed to become such an issue,

 

[JackOutback]

Several weeks for a carton? I best not say anymore..

I try to save my drinking for weekends, peppered with a few trips to the pub (where it's even more expensive).

 

[rocker_oz33]

People drink alot at the footy .
You could buy a slab and then some .
With the money spent.

 

[Scotland]

I've never had more than 2 or 3 beers at the footy unless I've been lucky enough to jag a corporate seat.

$10-15 cups of mid strength just make you piss like a pregnant woman.

This is true. Cold weather and middies nearly make a colostomy bag an essential item

There's just way too many about to police, same for vapes too, they sell them openly in the smoke joint in my local plaza. They do the darts too, $15 bucks a pack of 20s, reckon that's at least double the legal ones.

 

[Scotland]

I also don't understand people who go to the footy then go back and forth to the bar 20 times. If you aren't interested in watching just stay home, a lot cheaper.

Just grab 4 at each break like the serious, organised piss heads

 

[rocker_oz33]

We were at the gunners gig two very large ladies were seating next to me and one of their legs I should trunks was pushing hard on me, good times.
The couple on the other side looked over and felt sorry for me and moved over so I could breath.
Anyhoo they went to the bar and got a CC each I asked how much each ...$16 ea I think .
They spilled some , I said there goes 50cents , they laughed ...

I recall two blokes doing this at the Melbourne UFC in 2019. Geez they got lippy "LET'S SEE SOME BLOOD" "BLEED FOR MELBOURNE", cringeworthy

Ive got a dickhead mate that always yells out "Hes been doing it all day" at the first contest at the footy. Thats sober too usually. He barracks for Carlton so i allow him a few privileges to keep him happy

 

[peternorth]

I don't think a white guy could ever be as racist as I've heard Asian people be about other Asians. I was in China with a bunch of other Taiwanese workmates, that was interesting to say the least.

Do you know how big Asia is?

 

[the_interloper]

Do you know how big Asia is?

I wonder how she's going, maybe Chief should unban her for a day so she can give us an update?

 

[gaskin]

Getting that way with booze, but at least $60-$70 for a carton can several weeks, unless these people are a single smoke a day, many are paying that on the weekly.

I haven't had a drink since September 2023 and the price is part of the reason why.

Celebrating the Pies flag?

 

[gaskin]

Celebrating the Pies flag?

Nope. My Birthday. Went out with family for a feed for dinner and had 2 pints. I haven't had any since.

 

[Shell]

Commiserating the Pies flag?

Fixed that for you

 

[Shell]

It's been a while since I've had a drink. I think because I've been sick with colds. Turned off alcohol rn

 

[Pistol Night]

I was certainly doing just that on the Sunday. Pissed as grandpas jocks after we won

There's a bloke in the Geelong social club area who does that. It was funny the first time 10 years ago.

This is worse at concerts.

Why pay several hundred backs for a ticket, to either sit there and drink/chat the whole way through? Such a waste.

 

[deck]

She could have had a trolley full of food for that much."

Yeah 20 years ago not now. Won't even get you a full basket these days.

Depends what you buy. And how many you’re buying for. You can still get quite a bit for $65, but probably not everything you need.
