Cool, dip the corner of the box into some water so we can take a photo for insurance. Off you go, enjoy

i just buy the nice midrange chinese market mechanical watches and sometimes the quartz ones. for a hundo you can get a real nice watch that both works well, is at least as aesthetically pleasing as the rolex it's ripping off (for like, 0.1% of the price) and if you smash it open glassing someone then it's no biggie at all to replace the only time you should spend more than a two hundo on a watch is for a nice g-shock, big and metal and heavy enough to bean someone with

Unironically using a calculator watch in 2024 I didn't like smart watches actually, as much as the pebble was peak smartwatch The calc watch is actually a nice form factor, it's thinner than you expect, and the rapid access to a count up timer is really nice , and it's a calculator too

Non Compos Mentis posted:shops that sell alarm clocks should have them setup in a little wooden box with a porthole so you can see how bright they are at night I bought digital alarm clocks off ebay and they have a dial on the back to adjust the brightness. How this is not a standard feature will forever be a mystery to me. Also, they plug into USB which is another bonus. Similar to this one, but without the projector option: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/3843129...ABk9SR9yXwZubYw

NVJ is the assistant Potato Shingle Slicer at the Albury/Wodonga Border Fish and Chip Shop, which has two seperate lines for Vic and Non-Vic folks so people can order however they like because it'd be such a loving travesty to put both options on a single line and god help you if you order a pot of beer on the NSW side because they will absolutely loving tell you about it

I've always though of Newie as being home of the Busted Arse (pie Sanger with heaps of tomato sauce) but that might just be another on a long list of crimes perpetrated by my extended family

I mean like regions within Australia with dishes and produce that are really only worth getting there. I guess we don't have the history, maybe in another century it might evolve.

It's nice, but it doesn't really work with the flavour of a burger. That said, sometimes you just can't cram enough carbs into your mouth at once.
