Being aware is everything
interesting that we had this conversation yesterday and this morning i almost witness what would've been a pretty bad crash due to lack of awareness from two people.

i was in a backed up right lane to turn right. guy in front of me didn't queue across an intersection leaving a space for traffic in the other direction to turn right down another street. 50km/h zone.

so a guy comes along to turn right from the other direction but can't see particularly well cause he's got about 6 cars obscuring his view down the road, including me. instead of waiting till he can see or really easing his way through, he pretty much just went straight into his right hand turn. p plater on my left comes up doing at least 60 (probably closer to 70) and misses the front of his nose by about a foot. in the process p plater swerves left to miss and was probably fairly lucky not to sideswipe a telegraph pole and/or post office box. pretty ordinary driving all round.

Geeze, saw an Ambulance, lights on, on the other side of the main road I was driving down today.

It looked like it was stuck in traffic, along with the rest of us. Some people are srlsy ****ed in the head... or got their heads up their arses.
What gives an ambulance the right to go in front of me? They're probably just going out to get something to eat anyway.

How much damage does a roo do to your car anyway? Break windscreen? Dent?
A friend of mine used to drive a Toyota Corona, he was driving home one day when a roo jumped out from a shrub and kicked his door, proceeding to knock his car off the road and heavily damaging his driver side door that it wouldn't open anymore.

I reckon from reading all these posts, that actual real kangaroos are doing/can do more damage than the kangaroos football team.

BOOM. :cool:
I dunno. Even a real kangaroo will usually just hit you hard early then **** off without finishing the job off or doing any fatal damage.

Drinking nail polish is just bizarre. I cant imagine it tastes good- i mean it smells ****ing disgusting!!

I might go have to have a swig of my Loreal quick dry, LOL, try it for myself.
Can't be any worse than Withnail drinking aftershave, I recommend you do it and when you come round, tell us what it is like and whether it's worth it.

Driving along you see a car on the side of the road in a nice position and it has a piece of cardboard placed in the windscreen.
I know what it's therefore, my dog knows what it therefore, someone from a tribe in Papua New Guinea knows what it's therefore.
So why do they put FOR SALE and not the f$@&ing price on it!
Just gets me
Good point. Never thought about that before.

Wow. That is pretty twisted. Maybe I should start watching this program and my strange behaviours won't seem so bad anymore.

Drinking nail polish.

Tearing out stuff out of ya ears till they bleed.

WTF?!?!?!??!?! :eek:

That show is nuts! I've seen a few that were especially memorable. Lots of eating things (Ajax, catfood, tyres, face mask cream etc.) The weirdest ones are where people fall in love with inanimate objects. I've seen people obsessed with balloons, pool toys and another guy who 'had relations' with his car o_O

What you mean eating toilet paper or drywall isn't normal?
Bahahaha. I will forever remember that toilet paper ep- that was the first one I ever saw. I almost had to turn it off, kept dry retching or at least felt like dry retching.

The one where the woman ate her husband (cremated husband) I reckon was the saddest. no1. she got the whole episode devoted to herself (usually there's two cases shown), and no2. she had to have serious help, i think she was checked into a mental hospital it was that bad.
