I grew up drinking VB so I think it's alright. It is one of those beers that tastes really different every time you drink it which is a bit of a worry. It's very temperature sensitive I guess.

When I lived in the bush I would wake up in the morning and kangaroos would be standing right up near the window staring in. It was pretty creepy

Snowglobe of Doom posted:I live within spitting distance of the Melbourne CBD and although we never get snakes in our backyards there's a popular walking/cycling track along a creek that runs right through the suburb which frequently has snake sightings all the way through the warmer months. If there's a permanent source of water and a bit of scrub there's guaranteed to be snakes as well. I used to see the odd tiger snake on the Merri creek trail

They're planning to do most of the Commonwealth Games in regional Vic, I guess if you're going to do these things that's better than having it all in Melbourne. Also with the Commonwealth Games there's a lot less absurd IOC bullshit and white elephant projects. If the Olympic Games was more like the Commonwealth Games it would probably be a good thing.

The Commonwealth Games are so small time that having the rowing on lake Wendouree for a few days won't exactly destroy Ballarat, they were expecting traffic chaos on the gold coast and then the businesses were complaining about the lack of punters

I'm sure there are others they're only aware of because there have been documentaries or mini-series about them. I'd never heard about the Luna Park ghost train fire till that doco miniseries came out last year. Which was very good btw

When the Marysville/Kinglake super fire was going on or around Black Saturday all of Melbourne was a disturbing orange colour and reeking of smoke. There was also that time a few years ago where Box Hill had the world's worst air quality for half a day or something due to bushfires.

Maximum Sexy Pigeon posted:I just finished reading John Birmingham's Leviathan again, absolutely recommended reading, especially if you already despise Sydney. I might start Roger Franklin's Inferno today, brush up on Black Saturday before the 14th anniversary which is in little over two weeks. Thanks for the doco and the book reco, will check that out I read The Arsonist: A Mind On Fire by Chloe Hooper which is pretty good and covers a specific part of the super fire complex thing

I think Bill was a yank who pretty much opened the first "Mexican" restaurants in Australia I've been to the one in South Melbourne a few times when I worked near there because they sold dirt cheap margaritas. The food was whatever
