You need an old school ute with bull bars. Some modern cars have pedestrian protection systems. A slight contact with a wallaby and your bonnet explodes upwards leading to a repair bill of $5,000.

‘It’s overkill’: Tesla’s active hood feature leaves owners with a hefty bill

As cars are getting safer, they're getting more expensive to fix. This Tesla feature is leaving owners with a large bill.

I sometimes rinse oven trays and cooking racks off with the hose out the front. Works well particularly with the wire racks, they can be a campaigner to clean

Oven Power FTW. Comes with plastic bags you put the racks with the cleaning solution in. Leave overnight, rinse off and like brand new.

Steel wool with Ajax powder plus elbow grease works well.

Do you ever look at a word and say it in your head a few times so that it loses its meaning? I did it with 'beyond'.

beyond beyond beyond. It feels like an olde worlde word - like a magic spell.

Same effect with reading it over and over on a piece of paper

I remember my cousins once stayed with my folks for a few days when they were out in the Surf Coast for a holiday and they remarked how weird it was that my dad rotated the plates and cutlery after a dishwasher cycle (i.e. putting the cleaned dishes and cutlery at the bottom) and the unused pieces on top. I didn't say anything, but in my head I was like "shouldn't you do that though? Otherwise the bottom plate in the drawer gets used like twice a year?"

I don't do it every time, but definitely rotate like that once in a while.

the more you look at a word, the more it looks like it spelt wrong

I started doing this on occasion last year, but only with cutlery.

I used to break in corners which everyone does. But now brake well before the corner and hold speed.

Going down hills i never use my brakes which nearly everyone does. I guess driving trucks helps understand.

Used to be the highlight of a trip to Adelaide for me as a 5yo old Devils Elbow.
That and the Eagle On The Hill roadhouse are still there.

Thats where I was. I have a shitty 2 speed auto. But never in a rush so just do 80 in the left lanes

I might have mentioned this before but when I was a kid I was so amazed by the movie Home Alone (I saw it in the cinemas at least 7 or 8 times) and inspired by the Wet Bandits that I used to go to shopping centres and school bathrooms clogging up the sinks and turning the taps full blast in the style of The Wet Bandits.

I was 11 okay, who doesn't love Harry and Marv, two of the best movie villians ever !

I'm a non-rotator. I've got 6 favourite plates that always live at the top of the pile. 4 others that get used if those are dirty. There's about 10 plates below that that never get used.

I've got a tea mug, a coffee mug, a cup-a-soup mug and two mugs that I use for mixing stir-fry sauces. Probably 12 mugs that have been at the back of the cupboard for years.

I'm sentimental about my cutlery as it was a present for my Mum and Dad's 25th wedding anniversary.
