And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.

And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

Nandos is just disappointing. It's barely spicy and way overpriced.

Ogalo is where it's at. Make sure to get it every time I'm back in Sydney. Hopefully they'll open a store up here some time.

Shut your loving mouth.






The Ogalo across the road from me closed down months ago. :smith:

Why would you go out and buy spiced chicken when you can make your own at home cheaper with fresh ingredients that's much more delicious?

Time is worth money, and gently caress cooking would be a big part of it.

If I am in a mental state to want to eat the poo poo the KFC passes off for food, im not in a mental state where I should be allowed to cook.

KFC was always my lovely Fast-Food Place Of Choice, and over time I've slowly come to the conclusion this may be a personal flaw of some kind.

I mean, none of them are great, and I was certainly never claiming KFC as a good dinner. But my favorite of all possible fast food chains is the one almost universally considered the worst, which can't be anything but proof that I've got poor taste.

KFC is and always will be great and its love is unironic. Also you can get hot n spicy all year round at the one on George St. Plus KFC chips are best fast food chips.

We've got a local pizza place we use because they do jeagan and my wife can't eat dairy. But you got to pick it up, so if we're working different shifts and it's every person for themself, I just say fuckit and get Pizza Hut.

Home cooked always tastes different. Especially something like a chicken which is pretty hard to get anywhere near similar without special gear.

THREE Federal Ministers to be hauled in front of Supreme Court

I am sure nothing will happen to them, beyond maybe a small "Don't do that" message.
Even less. The 'ministers' didn't even bother to attend and the provisions on contempt have (like 18C/D) explicit exclusions for fair criticism of the court. Makes me wonder why the Vic Supreme court bothered. In the old days (1970's) this would have been seen as a major scandal and all three ministers would have resigned. If it was the ALP it would be banner headlines for weeks and a never ending barrage of accusations of treason. The arch cynic in me thinks it has all been a media spotlight opportunity for the tough on terror three. The thing I hate most about it is that it continues to feed into a cultured ignorance in the populous about what exactly parole is meant to achieve.

Also (and I know I am going to regret this) Hobo Erotica it is (yet another) an example of kicking down, not up. If a fat person commentates on their difficulties in society it is completely different to a thin/average weight person complaining about the difficulties of having a fat person around. As a journalist the nuance of this should be constantly on their mind when making copy. It is a fine line between empathy and advocacy to outright fat shaming.
