Thanks.
I have $75 in my PSN account so it's cheaper to just buy it digital.
When I was looking for a mouse, I was looking at a Steelseries. But the Sensei Raw. Bit of a price difference but.

We kinda lucked out. After the C-section the normal ward was full, so we went to a different one that only had single bed rooms. Spent about 3-4 days there because of recovery.
With the twins, wife had a share room, mixed public/private hospital, we lucked out of a private room as we were admitted as a public patient due to emergency c-section and I wasn't going to hang around doing paper work while the wife was being prepped for the op...
Thing is, the lady in the other half of the room was on bed rest while pregnant.. and had been for moths, so it was all a bit strange really.
edit: in summary, i don't like hospitals and don't wanna see the inside of one for a while. thanks.

Sounds like beer o'clock to me.
The whole c-section thing was so bizarre.
All the halls between the operating theatres were the same faded pastel green colour and completely empty apart from doors. Felt like an episode of House.
The theatre itself was huge, with machines, nurses and doctors everywhere.
Was weird having that many people around for the birth, something like 12 people as well as the wife and me.
And then I accidentally got a view of her belly opened up when I walked back from cutting the cord. Managed to keep my food down though.

I have a Steel Series Raw mouse and it's pretty rad. I can't find which model the Sims one is based on, which makes it hard to give any real info...
Seems like $30 is the price for it in a few places.
It looks kind of like a cheaper version of the sensei raw. No braided cable, and lower DPI? Should be a decent enough mouse I think.

Tell me about it. Off to Crown in a bit to get my drink on.
Hmm are you looking for CBD? I am guessing so since thats easiest for everyone?
Where is PAX? Southbank?
I hate this saying, in Australia (looking at you Jambo) it typically implies a bad thing, whereas in the US a good thing.

The amount of arguments the missus and I have with this... Seriously once a week.
I blame US tv shows.

Yesssssssssss you should go, I owe you and Cookie a few beers!
does it? I never realised.
what's the difference between lucked in and lucked out?
I don't play games where DPI is intensive (fps makes me nauseated), just looking for a good simple gaming mouse with more than 2 buttons which I can map,
which is exactly what this is

Australians say "got lucky"
Americans say "lucked out"
Australians wouldn't say that because its like saying your luck ran out. or your out of luck. I understand that, and the concept makes sense. However, I'll continue to say lucked out, when referring to getting lucky. Never heard of lucked in though..
America is backwards, when it comes to...well pretty much everything. Can't say I am really eager to go back.
Never heard the term lucked in before?
Haha I can imagine.
That's fair, it aint no thing.

will gently cradle you as time slowly ticks away.
Speaking of American English used on TV shows and whatever that annoys me:
"Do you mind if I come in?"
"Sure, come in."
"Do you mind if I come in?"
"Sure, come in."

That's pretty common, why does that annoy you?
yeah, but now i'm unsure if there's a difference between lucking into something and lucking out of something

Lucked out means got lucky in America? lol, a lot of things make more sense now.
Yeah me too. English in general is a bit silly when it comes to negative answers though. It's impossible trying to convince my students that the answer to (eg.) "Don't you want to come?" is no (I don't want to), and not yes (that's correct and I agree with the statement you just made).

Saying "yes"/"sure" means that you do mind. As in: no, you can't come in.
I see why this is used though, as a positive answer usually means a positive outcome.
Found a place 1.5 blocks from my uni which stocks the mouse for $29, and you can order online an collect instore.
So I managed to find a mouse which ticked all the boxes and is $30 and under
and it changes colours
super happy
yeah for colloquiums we really can't be too uppity

Yeah English is stupid with negative sentences
that's new. I've never heard that term before.
Did they end up just looking at ya like a pack of stunned mullets?
So many confuses.
Just did some reading up on it. Origin of the saying is lost... only popular because Rex hunt says it. Lol

I will never understand this 'heaps good'. It sounds so weird and I think I'm saying it as well D: stupid naturalisation. Same with cheers.

I do know what you mean but I could care less.
it's in the way that I tell them. So Fridays on Ausgaf are becoming like Mind Your Language repeats.
thanks heaps for your input
My old boss brought in photos of the whole thing so I got a very good view of something I never wanted to see...
All of the nurses and surgeons were telling me to take a phone or camera in.
At the moment of "birth," when he was pulled out of the opening, one of the nurses grabbed my phone and snapped a few photos.
It's not actually too bad, but there's a lot of blood and goo.

What's weird about "cheers"?
I never considered heaps good to be a SA special but now that you've mentioned it I only know SA people who say it.
It's Australia wide, but tonnes of SA people say it.
I found that a lot of Americans only use it when clinking glasses together and not in place of thanks/thank you.
