I would blow Dane Cook posted:Anyone have any experience with pedophile teachers back in the day? I went to a Christian Brothers secondary school that had a lot of paedophiles but I think it had stopped by the time I went there in the nineties and most of the teachers were not brothers anymore, just normal people. Some of the brothers still getting around the place gave off some serious vibes.

Black metal diversified a lot over the last 20 years ago and there's plenty of good non-nazi stuff, sometimes you find something random that you like and have to do a bit of homework though.

I don't particularly like riding bikes but I do about 150k a week riding to and from work so I have to look after mine and I have some kind of attachment to it. Also I reckon everybody got an e-bike for Christmas based on what I see on the commute

I was getting pissed with a bunch of cops that I played basketball with and I mentioned I was going to ride my bike home and asked if it was illegal. None of them even knew if it was and said they'd never considered ticketing someone for riding a bike pissed. Victoria btw

femcastra posted:Years ago I had a massive tumble on my bike taking a corner too fast. It was after work drinks and I distinctly remember thinking as I took the turn ‘oh wow I didn’t realise I could take this corner so fast’. Cut my face up, arms and legs all grazed and bruised. A couple of work colleagues drove past and bundled me into the car not long after. I had the obligatory tangle with Melbourne tram tracks after work drinks. Went over the handlebars, bike landed on me and fractured my shin. Didn't go to hospital and only found out it had been fractured after an x-ray for an unrelated issue years later

I would blow Dane Cook posted:I'm reminded of the time that cadbury had one of those instant win a free chocolate bar competitions. They printed a message on the inside of the wrapper, but they only printed the message if it was a winning bar, and you could see a slight indent on the wrapper from the outside because of the printing. Somewhat related, Freddo frog packaging has various endangered frog species on them starting this week. I did the 3d modelling for those frogs.

I lived in a big sharehouse with mates when I was younger. It had an upstairs and downstairs lounge. We were all sitting in the downstairs lounge when we heard a massive crash. There was some badly done flashing or something and after a week of solid rain about a 2x2 m section of sodden plaster just gave way. Also a bunch of insulation and downlights. The landlord sued the builder and my mate had to go to court

There was palpable urgency at the Woolies in Camberwell this morning. Joint was getting ransacked, big queues. Some weird things, diced and crushed canned tomatoes all gone but lots of canned whole tomatoes. Quick oats all gone, but lots of normal rolled oats.

McSpergin posted:I was thinking stuff like dried legumes, pulses and beans mainly which you can usually get from an Indian grocer for a couple bucks a kilo. Yeah I hit the Indian grocery 2 weeks back and got 5kg bags of chickpeas, various lentils & beans, brown rice etc for good prices. Various pickles and dried spices too. I use this stuff all the time anyway so I consider it hoarding not prepping *Edit* I just soak stuff overnight and cook normally

I have quite a lot of legumes and pulses hoarded away and we visited the Macedonian inlaws yesterday and came away with several kilos of chillis from their garden (kinda like hungarian wax chillis) several large cabbages, preserved veg and some cauliflowers. Going to fill the unit with toxic gas

I did a trial WFH day yesterday, we're only a small studio but it's VFX so there's large amounts of data and lots of different software and pipeline issues. Went pretty well cos our IT guy is very competent but mentally I don't really like it. My bike commutes to the office are part of my exercise regime and they separate work brain from home brain really nicely. If it comes to it I have no doubt I'd adapt but I wouldn't do it by choice.

NPR Journalizard posted:So keep the routine up, and go for a ride around the block then start work when you get back home. That mental seperation can be important. Yep I would do something like that, it didn't help that my wife had a day off so we were both home and it felt like a weekend. One thing that fried my brain was 8 hours of navigating between network storage at work over VPN and the mirrored project structure set up at home, I lost track of which mapped drives were remote and half the time I was remote desktop-ing into my work machine and flicking between desktops. At one point the IT guy was RDing from his home computer to his work computer and tightVNC-ing from that onto my home machine to take control of my mouse to set stuff up and then he RDed into my work machine from my home machine to show me how that works. desktop'ception

Woolies in Camberwell was weirdly quiet and not very ransacked this morning. There was pasta and rice available, didn't check bog scrolls Maybe the 2 item limit is having the intended effect Fresh food market was not that busy, poultry places were running low on eggs at 9:30ish but not yet out. Lots of meat available Fruit & Veg pretty much normal
