I don't think we are getting much of the rain up here but we just got a quick shower in from the south just then and that's supposed to happen a few more times over the next couple of days so I'm going to get out there this evening

If any of you are nerds that still have an N64 and want wireless controllers, The Gamesmen have Brawler64s for preorder for Feb delivery for $40 instead of the bullshit $80+ on ebay from international sellers.

I love that game, but now hate that song for being used on all of Larry Bundy Jrs Kickscammer videos.

Reminds me to hit up the old bloke who ran an old arcade for that bare cab he promised me years ago.

I'm 31 and I also don't have my Ps and I'm gonna get them this year. I was getting pretty decent and ready for the test and epilepsy got in the way. Good luck. Driving is stressful to me for some reason.

I have a managable tic disorder which also just makes the whole process of driving a very methodical process

A similar mindset to operating industrial machinery

I can't have music on or have a chat, just constantly checking things and cooly continuing on

High stakes was the best NFS. Racing for pink slips and taking your mates car off his 8mb memory card was insanely gratifying.

I'm actually really enjoying NFS Heat. It's not super deep but it's fun to paint a Countach hyper orange / pink and drift around fake Miami. Graphics are killer, too.

I liked doing this in a fake but reasonably accurate los Angeles in GTA V as well with the added fun of sliding into civilians and shooting cops

They are made locally in punchbowl, and the gamesmen advertised and sold them, they are loving solid as.

i don't really like GTA for some reason. I liked the PS2 era games but IV was no fun soured it for me. V looks more fun, I should install it one day.

I was into NFS because it's arcadey and has real cars you can play dressups with.

Anyone else's cat obsessed with licking adhesive tape? Whenever a package arrives we have to immediately dispose of the tape or else the cat will go to town on it.

One of my cats was insane for cardboard and would absolutely destroy any cardboard sheets or box in the house. Turns out it's some kind of dietary problem or nutritional deficiencies. Switched foods etc and he normalised.

I've pavlov'd my cat so that every time I get a bit of crinkly paper I will crush it into a ball and throw it for her to play with.

Great with receipts I don't care about, or old letters.

Not so great when I have a bag of Minties

Bought a Gel Blaster for less than less than lethal shenanigans. Yup it hurts still. Also pulling apart reassembling the gearbox is a frustrating activity.

you have to go to the forbidden coast, play 3 pokies at the casino then you can cross the border into NSW.

no one is allowed into NSW unless they can prove they understand how to play poker machines.
