Pinch punch first day of the month no returns
Drove my wife to South Melbourne. 25 minutes.
Drove the return trip. 55 minutes, which included 2x10 mins of continuous dead stop while the trams, cops, and us drivers in both directions all wait for a protest to roll past.
At least some of the cops seem to be in a good mood, reminding them to turn their flashy lights on and then a few moments later, playfully slammed the door of their colleague’s car a few times.
I want to like you, Spotify DJ… I really do… but STOP RECOMMENDING BEYONCE ETC TO ME, YOU GOON!
Also, I started on the vodkas a couple of hours ago. Responsibly. Cheers and welcome to my birth-season: Autumn. Do you pronounce the N in Autumn? How do you even do that? Get out of here, unnecessary N!
Its for the adjective - autumnal - not pronounced when not an adjective. The other seasons have Springlike, Summery, Wintry. Why not an N?
Vernal - Spring
Æstival - Summer
Autumnal - Autumn
Brumal - WinterWhat do the Americans say? Fally? Fallish? Fallesque?
No idea. Fallen? That would be cool.
I’ve never in my life heard Autumnal and I’m sad that Springlike isn’t Springy.
Cheers buddy 🍺

How cute is that. I love the brothers grim stories. Keep em coming. Bill and Ted make me laugh.
It may be “Autumn” but we’ve still got plenty of Smarch weather to look forward to.
Autumn starting on March 1 has always been bullshit as far as I’m concerned anywhere in Australia. Even in Melbourne (at least the last 12 years).
We are going to have a very warm Autumn , including the nights
Just filled out, scanned and sent off the current batch of documents to the conveyancer.
All this adulting…
Sometimes I ask myself why I write stupid poetry because it sounds lame and stupid, and then I read the lyrics to some popular songs and realise my writing it perfectly fine.
your pomes are really good
they are real and speak from the heart 🤗
Thank you _ that means a lot! 💜
Yeah, if you were curious what a 40yo white man thinks about it/you: you’re cool and it’s cool. I read them all.
Aw thank you! Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside :D
Im getting in on the action today.
My community contribution, not mine but I think it’ll still counts.
What’s bunnykins name?
Melinda I thimk.
Only paying us a visit for a couple of weeks. Little babies next to her too!
So cute!
Aaaaaargh
Is this the random screaming thread?
Excellent idea.
Yaaaarrrrhhhhh!
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarggggggggghhhhh!!!
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
😭
I am tipsy cooking and involves a pressure cooker. If I’m on the news later I’ll wave to you all.
Please set a timer.
It’s one of those automagic doodads, it has me covered!

Awaiting earth shattering kaboom
I like how that main button looks so dejected.
“ok”
Beers been had. Time off is feeling better already
Can’t WAIT to crack a gin! Stupid soda water cooling down too slowly.
enjoy it while it lasts
Not the gin, the soda water.Just drink it on the rocks!!
Or neat. The way it was intended
I’ve never heard of soda water needing to cool down.
I sip icy soda water on the side. The waiting time is nil
I don’t think I’ve ever waited for a drink to chill. Ever.
Ok, this is awesome, my “boss” that I work with has given me permission put on the NZ vs AUS test match while I’m working at my desk.
My day has gotten so much less boring now.
Omg. How fun is Lego? Good for the soul. Not good for the eyes.
I love Lego. It costs too much, but I love it!
It’s addictive
Sooo addictive. You might be interested to know that Jecka (similar principle but built differently) have a Jack Russell model or two. Yes, I’ve been sucked in but I haven’t built it yet!
Woah. I need this!
Omg. Need to make him with sticky uppy ears!
I’m sure once you got the hang of the connector bits you’d be able to make them sticky up.
I’m gonna make this happen.
I need pics! Mine hasn’t made it out of the box yet.
I wish there were more decent big sets that weren’t themed to whatever franchise is in fad
My kid gets into some of the franchises, and right now it’s Star Wars so $$$$. We keep all the instructions and over the years have accumulated a giant bag and a few organisers of bits. Free play is great fun, put the bag on the table and we’ll waste a day building all sorts of stuff. We have sone of his favourites on display but change them up often.
When I was a kid I got no new lego, just a giant denim bag with all sorts of pieces inherited from brothers and various cousins 8-12 years older than me. A good chunk of the instructions were gone too. So in those pre-internet days I just happily built whatever I wanted and figured the very basics of random parts from some meccano set to make a basic steerable car and some kind of winding contraption.
We’ve built some awesome vehicles from the big bag of bits. Mine always lose in the races though.
There should be a Lego library where you can borrow a set, build it, then return it. They’d sanitise it between builds. There’d be a fee if you return it without deconstructing it.
I say this because I like putting them together but I don’t want to display ugly Lego on my shelves. I’m not leaning that hard into the 40+ year old single male stereotype and I just think they look bad in general.
That’s a good idea.
I ain’t gonna display them. It’s not even the real lego. I just like pulling shit apart and putting it back together so Lego kind of scratches that itch.
Pull it apart. Keep the instructions but use the bits for free play.
Loaning kits of anything involves counting all the pieces when they come back. Very expensive in staff time.
Surely AI can solve this problem for us!
Alright, off I go! Fingers crossed!

By Australian Consumer Law I am entitled to return it. Hence, Pinch punch first day of the month to you
Ok but you’ll have to give me your details. Name, phone number, address, email, your mother’s maiden, first dog you owned. What exactly is wrong with it again? I’ll get my supervisor.
I didn’t feel neither the pinch nor the punch hence why I am returning
I believe you are only entitled to return it if it was defective or not as described.
Told the wife “you know, I think they’re lying to you” “who?” “Square enix. I’m pretty sure this isn’t the FINAL fantasy, I bet there will be another one!”. I can’t say how satisfying the groan and look on her face was.
You have ascended the dad joke mountain!
