Things that please me - Part 6

We got upgraded from premium economy to business class on a MEL > LA flight back when V Australia was quite new, so we weren't loyal customers or anything. They didn't even tell us we'd been upgraded, they were just profusely apologising that their pyjama supplier hadn't delivered and we...

Mate of mine's fourteen year old grandson is getting into Wu Tang Clan

It's kinda funny that 90's hip hop is becoming the new Dad rock. Had a few young people only pushing 18 around us when they came out the other year.

Just had to kick the secondary blanket off. Too hot. It comes back on around 5-6am when it gets even cooler.

Ps. Clean bed sheets night 1

Unfortunately I’ve a got arthritis forming in a joint that connects the hip and spine and now they are doing further testing as I’m in a lot of pain when I move around so I could also have a slipped disc as well. The whole scenario is putting my job which I love at risk so it’s a pretty shitty situation.

Good luck with everything

That blows.
Hopefully you'll be in the ment soon enough.

I think I've got similar on my Samsung but because I've got a Foxtel box and watch everything via that (including accessing various streaming options) I don't even touch the TV remote other than to turn the TV on

I was playing around with something on the TV itself one day and found these random channels - maybe I should check them out again

1075

Thank me later!!!

I did the same a few years ago, didn't think I'd be interested in the Ssmsung internet tv channels.... found Baywatch and it's been a regular rotation ever since!! I had since read that they had been a thing since 2020 (spewing I missed out for years lol).

I generally skip the last 2 years (Baywatch Hawaii sucks!) But the 5 days of regular season episodes are bliss. Occasionally they'll rotate themed days/weeks into the playback. eg: last year they played the Christmas themed episodes in July as a Christmas in July special. They've also done other events like fathers day, Halloween themed.

Also do shark episodes during shark week. It must be shark month as so far They've played the same shark centered episode between 8-9am for weeks now.

My yellow bin returned today.

I don't know where Old Yeller has been all week but it's good to have him back home again.

Stay tuned for the heartwarming Disney film about a middle aged bloke and his favourite bin.

We must be the only 2 people left in Australia with Foxtel judging by the endless melts about Kayo in countless threads

+1 for Foxtel.

+1 for Foxtel.

Love Foxtel. Kayo is pure shit

We still have fox but don’t use it for anything other than footy so it’s an expensive outlay

 

[troybe]

Haven’t had Foxtel since the 99 World Cup

I never had it growing up, it was too expensive. But as soon as I could get it fully installed as a fringe benefit through work my parents were on board and have been ever since.

What pleased me today is my drive through Maccas McPops order was put through as 2-for-$2.50 instead of two $1.50 line items like it normally is. Love my Biscoff McPops.

Bought a new LG Smart TV. After a week or so of playing around with it

You didn't throw it against the wall??

Random little horse bet on a race in California. Something seemed off. 30-1 shot but experts said 40% chance to win. Put $5 on nose and won $150.

These days I am an exhausted parent and can't stay out past dark. Last night we got a babysitter and went to dinner. I had a strategic energy drink at roughly 5pm and didn't start feeling tired until just before midnight, when we had just gotten home and were ready for bed.

I'll never get the timing right on that again.

Caffeine is meant to have a half-life of roughly 8 hours. I'd assume those taurine type energy drinks would be at least that.
