      Any chili oil stuff that’s from a smaller brand tends to be good. I picked up some stuff from a Mrs C’s Chili Oil and it has been great. It’s perfectly balanced where I know how much to add for a kick or massive spice

    Our Anniversary is towards the end of June and I’ve pretty much got the evening all planned. How long do you think I should wait before telling my girlfriend we have plans?

    I wouldn’t tell her what it is just get, but maybe just to be like ‘keep your calendar clear on the 21st, I’ve got it all sorted.’

      The 21st is also winter solstice fwiw, if you want to tie that into some romanticness.

        I’m sure I’ll be able to tie the solstice into it somewhat. I also want to get ahead of things early in the unlikely event she’s planning something as well.

        Like seeing meat labelled ‘Hormone Free’. All meat is Australia is hormone free. We don’t do that shit here.

        But it implies that all other brands have added hormones.

        I think it’s hormones, I could be wrong.

    Might have found a store with staff more useless than Bunnings. SuperCheap Auto.

    Need new headlight globes. Take them out, bring them in, ask the people there for some help. Bloke grabs a couple of the shelf and rings them up. I walk to my car, look at the box and the fitting looks wrong. Sure enough, it’s the wrong type. I go back in and ask to exchange and he’s trying to tell me they’re the right ones.

    I take one out of the box put it against one of my old ones, similar, but definitely not the same. He mumbles something like “I should have been more specific”

    Mate, how much more fucking specific do you want?

    He tries to help me again, and I kind of shoo him away, grab the right globes, swap them and job done.

    I feel it’s my fault for not grabbing them myself to begin with instead of asking for help.

      I bought headlight globes at SuperCheap last year. They were supposed to be extra long lasting, which turned out to only be two months. They also didn’t seem to be as bright as they should have been. I got more expensive Phillips ones sourced from somewhere else to replace them and was much happier, they were brighter and still going strong when I traded the car in.
