What pissed me off this week ?

[Cold Sober]

1. The sports media's obsession with getting at least one coach sacked per season, obviously it's Buckley's turn.
2. The price fluctuations in fuel prices.
3. Weekdays.

Don't most towns close up on any public holiday?

dropped a small container of cream from fridge, but looks like it was a ******* catering sized one.
s**t went everywhere, both splashed inside fridge on bottom draws, and then a big pile on the floorboards, and under the fridge. took forever to clean up every last drop.
and then after washing the towels and sponges they still stink, will just throw them away i think

I looked at Aldi's website to see if they are open and it said that they were so I went there and they were closed.

I didn't even realise it was a public holiday until yesterday, went to do some shopping at Coles, thought it would be open and the whole shopping centre was shut except for Grilled which is right next to the front door, walked up to the automatic doors and nearly walked into them, some sitting at Grilled were quite amused by my befuddled look.

Depends on the nationality of the owners. I live in country victoria and most open every day regardless. Good for the locals.
You're correct, most do, some open for an hour or two.

Sounds like Queensland's tourism slogan should be "Beautiful one day, closed the next".

 

[Billy ray]

Another public holiday.
Ffs
1) spread the bloody things out over the year. One a month would be good

2)align them across the country

The big Nigerian basketballer, complaining about diversity in a photo which had an indigenous guy and a disabled person in it and stabbing Australia in the back after we probably paid for everything to keep her playing basketball and then finding out it's all about underwear

You mean the big Australian basketballer I assume? I'm no fan of hers but at least be accurate

I was being slightly sarcastic even though she is half Nigerian . surely the indigenous bloke in the photo must be very annoyed

Fear-mongering government and mainstream media.

How do you stir coffee loudly? Especially to the point it pisses people off? I will jump back a few pages to see if I can find the original post about this as it had me very intrigued.

The campaigner I think holds the spoon really loosely and let’s it flatter against the sides of the mug, also does it really fast and for a long time, well after the sugar is stirred in. I hope you never have to put up with it!
