Would dig seeing more of these when you have them I learned what a trompe is the other day and now I can't stop thinking about trompes

well why not posted:what’s the semi hateful stereotype for the Northern Beaches? As in the area from Manly - Palm Beach. Its like The Shire except they have more money, further away from everything and a loving pain in the arse to drive into/out of. the locals are like the worst people of Sydney and the worst people of the central coast combined into one turbo-bogan. They act like nowhere else in Sydney has beaches. its Sydneys G*** C****

Palm beach on the forbidden coast is surprisingly chill for a place both on the gc and with it’s own smallish Centrelink bc of the large number of housing commission places out the back of the beach front. I worked there while I was at Burleigh and there’s a pretty sizeable homeless population for what it is but all the rich yuppies in thongs at worst ignore them completely. Kinda reminds me of Byron right before it shifted from chill trendy to hyper crystal fuckwit trendy

I think the moment for me Byron went to poo poo was when the bong shop on the main drag changed their name from ‘the bong shop’ to something like ‘awakened energy’ around the mid 2000s but it’s probably a very subjective moment to define between each person, I know for a fact people I knew living there at the time were lamenting me getting around shirtless with rum in a pineapple as having ruined the place

Byron had well and truly gone to poo poo by then.

I managed to get all of the security cahmehrahs mounted. I haven’t run the cabling yet so I can’t survey my angles and there’s probably a couple of hours just aligning them right but i can’t wait to get 1080p footage of someone stealing my cameras

You're lucky if your cokes getting cut with anything stimulant related these days. As an immigrant I was and still am shocked at how poo poo all the drugs are over here. Also Canada is loving grouse and I'd still be living there if the whole idea of the place didn't just send me into a spiral of depression thanks to the ex.

The Kins posted:Leaving Australia to live within driving distance of the United States of America sounds... counterintuitive at best. People don't seem to want to admit it but a lot of dumb bullshit seems to diffuse across the border. Especially work related poo poo, 'yes you should get a good wage and suitable conditions but no I don't think we should have to pay you a a better wage or benefits. Not my fault it's unfair now get back to the coal mine you ungrateful cur.' seems to be a common theme. gently caress I miss Australian working conditions.

I see they've got scrotum keyrings and scrotum bottleopeners, what else would you like to buy in scrotum format? I'm thinking like a phillips head screwdriver. A corkscrew perhaps.
