Egh. Tried to download my uni lectures and my internet just happened to be capped. Really shouldn't have downloaded those BF3 updates... >_>

 

[reptilescorpio]

Been rainy this afternoon, power got knocked out about an hour ago though

Edit: and as I type this it comes back on!

 

[FormallyMegadrive]

yeah but it's actually called woolworths.

safeway doesn't exist anymore.

you mongs

There's one near my gfs. One in St Albans. Safeways that is

 

[reggie]

Heat in Newcastle is fucking disgusting at the moment. KILL ME NOW.

Its a woolworths. They just haven't changed the signage.

And all the wind, ugh.

Get yourself to the beach, stat.

 

[reptilescorpio]

2 Safeways here too. New store built on the edge of town has been labelled a Woolworths though I am pretty sure. They rebranded all the Safeway Liquors to BWS in the last few weeks which is cool, get some good deals through BWS that they will price match now.

 

[Dead Man]

The whole fuel thing is terrible too. I mean the discount is negligable, but now its pretty much just shell and caltex...

IGA's here will do a fuel discount thing in reverse, go to any petrol station then bring your docket in and they will refund you.

 

[CryptiK]

Its so hot 41 Degrees and I hear a firetruck go past every hour :S

God almighty, you people and your oh 41 is so hot. Perth, Adelaide, and those buggers down on that island all had to put up with it, now pull your socks up and walk like a man.

 

[jambo]

We're getting 25 in Adelaide tomorrow, but then back up to high 30s for the rest of the week.

God almighty, you people and your oh 41 is so hot. Perth, Adelaide, and those buggers down on that island all had to put up with it, now pull your socks up and walk like a man.

To be fair you made an equally smart-arse comment when Tasmanians mentioned the hot weather and we happened to get a fucking large bushfire that is still out of control. You know, Western Australians (or wherever you are from), don't have a monopoly on commenting on the heat.

 

[Shaneus]

Hadoken! http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/90281

I might have actually considered this if my arcade sticks weren't for 360.

I remember my brother and I payed about $180 for SF2 SCE on Megadrive. That for $96 is a steal.

But the fact that I never bothered cracking the seal on my 360 copy of SF4 means I really can't be fucked with fighters, as much as I'd like to think I can.

West Australians are a bunch of softcocks when it comes to winter, don't worry. They pull out the thermals and stoke the woodfires if it dares drop below 20 in an afternoon.

 

[Shaneus]

God almighty, you people and your oh 41 is so hot. Perth, Adelaide, and those buggers down on that island all had to put up with it, now pull your socks up, put on your sandals and walk like a man.

Ahaha, you wear your socks pulled up. I bet you fit right in over there in Adelaide!

 

[reptilescorpio]

But how could you type... if you had no power?

I got meself one of these newfound contraptions called a smart mobile telephone! It does telephoning as well as interneting! I had a chat to Gustave Eiffel at that World's Fair thingy and he sold me one! Maybe one day your village will have one too!

 

[Yagharek]

I'm guessing everyone saw this horrible video on two russian guys in an inflated ball on a ski slope.
If you dont want to watch it, don't click because it turns out they rolled down the mountain and one died, the other was seriously injured.


Well, a few months back there was a thread on GAF about someone who survived a fall off a snowmobile, and the video has been dubbed with the Mario 64 snowslide music.


Well either way, I'm going to hell because this song is stuck in my head and has been when I see the first video.

Tele...what? You mean telegram? Surely a portable telegraph would be prohibitively cumbersome.

Yep, so looking forward to tomorrow.

MY NIGHTMARE RETURNS

Destroyed me.

As soon as I figured out I didn't ned to do them for to get to the end of the story, I forgot they even existed and never touched them again. Evil fucking things.

To be fair you made an equally smart-arse comment when Tasmanians mentioned the hot weather and we happened to get a fucking large bushfire that is still out of control. You know, Western Australians (or wherever you are from), don't have a monopoly on commenting on the heat.

Calm down, moaning about who has it the worst with heat is a traditional bush pastime. How does 'To be fair' apply here? And I am not from WA.

Ahaha, you wear your socks pulled up. I bet you fit right in over there in Adelaide!

Righ, that's enough out of you!!

 

[Shaneus]

Well, isn't that splendid! I was under the assumption that you also didn't have mobile telephonic internet with which to use your portable receptacle. Good show, old chap.

Righ, that's enough out of you!!

I can only assume you didn't see my edit. Phew.

 

[Danoss]

Calm down, moaning about who has it the worst with heat is a traditional bush pastime.

Totally.

I was laughing to myself when someone said something like "June cannot come quick enough..." That was because I extended the sentence in my head to "... so we can complain about how cold it is".

 

[Yagharek]

And here's a sobering thought.

Redback spiders. I dont need to post an image of one, we all know what they look like, right?

Wrong.

This is the male redback spider.

I wonder how many times I've confused them with daddy long legs.

I won't tell my wife.

 

[Rezbit]

Calm down, moaning about who has it the worst with heat is a traditional bush pastime. How does 'To be fair' apply here? And I am not from WA.

I am calm. I'm saying to be fair because you've made the same comment before, and Cryptik was making a comment about the heat. So to be fair to him? That works right?

 

[CryptiK]

God almighty, you people and your oh 41 is so hot. Perth, Adelaide, and those buggers down on that island all had to put up with it, now pull your socks up and walk like a man.

I don't get what you are trying to say here. 41 is hot and it has set a national record for heat enjoy your 25 in Adelaide.

 

[Dead Man]

Well, isn't that splendid! I was under the assumption that you also didn't have mobile telephonic internet with which to use your portable receptacle. Good show, old chap.

Totally.

Exactly LOL

Yeah, that works.

I don't get what you are trying to say here. 41 is hot and it has set a national record for heat enjoy your 25 in Adelaide.

I am saying everywhere else was hotter last week or on the weekend. I was having a dig an SYdney siders for being soft. 41 is hot. 25 is not. We already had 44 last week. I maoned about it, I expect people to moan about 41, since that is hot.

Is my humour really that unclear? Sorry.

 

[Fogz]

Fairly standard summer here so far. Was really wet the past couple of years which was out of the ordinary.

Hasn't been 45 yet but there's still time

 

[Kritz]

Man, this game really sucks time out of me. Was 12pm when I started, 7pm now. And all I did was add a player model, create a texture for it, and some animations, and made the camera logic have this really cool sweep.

And eeeverything still looks like garbage.

But it has bump mapping now! .. :<

Spoiler

the dwarf's name is Yolo The Dwarf

 

[Yagharek]

Is my humour really that unclear? Sorry.

I got the joke. Just be thankful you're not in WA. There's a persecution complex over here about being ignored by all other "eastern states" news and how it was hot here last week.

Which it was.

Moving on.

 

[Ningo]

I went to work today. I did not work today. I hope to go to work tomorrow and work.

 

[reptilescorpio]

I like that artstyle Kritz, looks like plasticine.

Oh my.

Remind not to complain about the heat around my parents, "Back in MY day we had this thing called the Summer of 1972/1973..... I had an onion tied to my belt, which was the style at the time....."

 

[Salazar]

And eeeverything still looks like garbage.

Looks like Tasmania.

 

[Yagharek]

Looks like Tasmania.

Time to add dinosaurs to every golf course then.

THE Prince Charles Hospital has slashed 25 full-time nursing jobs and four beds from its surgical wards as part of budget-cutting moves.

Dat Queensland.

Mr Roberts said they were necessary because of mid-financial year Federal Government budget cuts to the Metro North district of $22.5 million.

Dat Federal Labour.

You're all a bunch of pussies. You didn't hear a peep out of us hardened Queenslander's last week. Maybe you should all put on your summer dresses and shut up.

I went to work today. I did not work today. I hope to go to work tomorrow and work.

What the fuck is wrong with you?

Hmmmmmm... I call shenanigans. I doubt those numbers aren't actually answerable and... yeah. I'm just going to assume you posted it for laughs...

Wow is that real? Skeptical because I assume it's an automated mass message, but that's awesome if someone replied "Don't be a fucking smart arse!"
