Glorious tale of woe! High mileage electric car usage is working out almost twice as expensive as petrol (25 Nov)…

“Very interesting, Mr Kneel!”
Yes, Dot – the other advantage of the various LENR fusion techs (there are several others that use different techniques to produce high energy He ion “streams” and so on), is that they are pretty much all “fail safe” or “walk away safe”. That is, if you over- or under-fuel it, or the control systems fail, it simply “fizzles out” rather than going “boom”, and all are no radiation /no radioactivity / non-toxic fuel, reaction and waste.
Most are (at least potentially) small enough to drop into your local suburban electricity substation and provide power for the suburb – with double-ups, you would have redundancy and the existing HV distribution network could be used as backup if both fail (leech off others until it’s fixed), so making the electricity grid very resilient.
The potential for powering remote towns, mine sites etc is also obvious, as is the use on heavy rail etc. Nearly unlimited, cheap and clean electricity is truly world changing stuff, especially B11-p as I described – the “fuel” is quite literally available everywhere, and no-one has a monopoly on it.
The most frustrating thing about EMCC’s research (to me, anyway), is that they only needed $200 million to prove the concept – in around 2018 or so! Yet apparently no-one was prepared to fund it. Given the billions spent on renewables and tokamaks etc, it seemed to me like it would be worth an even 1% chance of it working for that amount to be worth spending. Sure, you’d probably need to spend several years and a few 10’s of billions more to get it “real world ready”, but it would be world changing and potentially be worth trillions. I even wrote to local politicians at the time, but with no result, sadly. Pity someone like Elon Musk wasn’t prepared to risk it, but such is life I guess.
Hopefully, given the original “net positive” result, we are on course to have something commercially viable within a decade or so. Gives you hope for us fur-less monkeys after all, dunnit?
So were the Vikings, if Graeme’s last great Flight of Famtasy was to be believed…
You stupid obese retard.
No maaaate. He’s Serbian!
How good is a $millions seetlement for your resilience! .. just days after being down and out mentally, physically and whatever other superlatives were available to the media “knickerless” has regained her composure and wherewithal to graduate “double” honours from University ..
She was in such a mental state that the Crown Prosecutor was worried about her mental well being.
Obviously didn’t affect her ability to study for a double University degree.
Brittany Higgins has stepped out for her university graduation ceremony, saying she “couldn’t be more proud” of the occasion.
After the intense public scrutiny during the Bruce Lehrmann rape trial – and the decision by prosecutors to drop the charge against him – Miss Higgins posted video footage from inside a Brisbane mental health clinic as she shared the emotional toll of the saga.
Now, just days after reaching a confidential settlement with the Commonwealth over her Comcare personal injury claim for sexual harassment, sex discrimination, disability discrimination, negligence and victimisation, Miss Higgins stepped out in public with hundreds of fellow students from Griffith University for a graduation ceremony on the Gold Coast.
The former Federal government staffer took to Instagram to thank her supporters for their help as she graduated with a double degree.
“It has been a journey, but we’re finally here,” she wrote.
“My university experience has been an unconventional one but I couldn’t be more proud to share this day with the people who helped me get here.
“Thank you to everyone who lent me their time and expertise over the years – from lecturers to professional mentors.”
The post was accompanied by pictures of Miss Higgins clutching a giant teddy bear and posing with friends and family outside the ceremony at the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre.
Her partner David Sharaz also posted pictures on Instagram to mark the occasion, saying he was “in awe” of what she had been able to achieve during a time of such turmoil.
“Here’s to this absolute queen for graduating with her double degree today,” he wrote. “Somehow she managed to start and complete four assignments during a criminal trial, snapping up distinctions along the way. I’m in awe, endlessly. Love you.”
On Tuesday, Miss Higgins settled her claim against the Commonwealth, receiving a confidential payment after initially seeking about $3 million in damages.
Looks like the report post function gone.

Just an idle observation .
I know he’s Greek.
Gee thanks Dot. I was just putting that one out there for a laugh.
That wasn’t the ‘insight’ Grigory was looking for, Graeme.
Try reading his post again. Slowly this time.
I know mania makes it hard to focus, but it will mildly slow your facelong crash-dive into vehement incomprehensibility. And maybe reduce the severity of the comedown afterwards…

Indeed. The grass and weeds I cremated with the spicy dust dribbles* from the Leschenault Lady’s ashpan at Boyanup 4 weeks ago, were the grateful recipients of a long, wet winter amd mild spring. Didn’t stop them getting tinder-dry after 4 weeks of relatively dry and sunny weather.

Really, Graeme?
Not even Alex Jones went full retard like that…
Good comment made on Herald Sun article where article claimed unvaccinated represent 41% of deaths :
Victorias population – 6.6 million
Unvaccinated population – 5% or 330,000 people. More if you include children
Covid deaths last three months – 604
Unvaccinated @ 41.7% = 252 people
Death rate unvaccinated for three months = 0.076%
Survival rate unvaccinated for three months = 99.924%
Maths is simple.

I have to tell you. If I were reading your posts without giving it any thought at all to what you’re saying, I’d figure you’re a very gifted writer. But when I then turned my brain on to figure what you’re saying, I’d realize you’re stark raving mad. I told you to get away from that leveraged banking bullshit, leading to the Rothschilds and then you know who. I warned you, but you didn’t listen and not look at the result.
Ukelele Lady:
You think a team of hitters killed the Trains earlier in the day and the 4 cops were sent out late in the afternoon to construct a [barely] believable narrative?
Get your hand off it, Grigs.
You’re not helping.
Bird, you’re lucky you don’t own anything. Jones received a judgement against him in the billions and he’s bust.
You too should do the show together.
JC,
You are right I did report some of your stoushing posts as you were on a stoushing bender for three consecutive days and it was very tedious.
However I am confident I would not have been the only one and mine alone would not have enough to justify removing the function.
I guess you must have some kind of immunity token so well done on that.
Now give yourself an uppercut for being an obnoxious repetitive moron. Repeat each day when coming back here.
There were ways around it. Find a doc that would punch you with saline solution calling it a vaccine.
Not that easy. All the Doctors I went to were shit scared. Even the Doctor who was most incensed by what was happening to me wouldn’t do it. The only place I know of where this was a thing was in the Muslim community, and clearly you needed to be part of that community to make it happen.
One person I know who was pro choice signed up to be trained as a “needle woman” when they were supposedly desperate. Never got a call back and she was already working in a quasi medical role. Social media vetting perhaps.
Uh oh,
Graeme’s now saying it was the perfidious….CENTRAL BANKERS’ wot did it all.
Amazing how the fly always manages to land back on the exact same turd.
Every time.
What a nuffy.
Why are you confirming this as there was no need? Of course we know you’d report anything that disagreed with your LGBTQF view of the world. (F for faggot)
He removed it because of your incessant reporting. No doubt in my mind.
I’m confident you were 99.5% because of the thousands of times you buzzed.
Huh?
Okay, but what am i being repetitive about? I haven’t called you a nasty little queen today. I changed it to fastidious little faggot to avoid repetition. What are you on about?
Birdie knows as much about the Trains as Special Ed does about Britnee the knickerless. SFA!
Wait a minute-
Is Graeme saying doing an OJ Simpson, and saying he dun it?
Or that he is an IsRaElI?
See what I mean about staying focussed, Graeme?
Ukelele Lady:
Bruce Lehrmann?
Your thoughts?
Go to bed, Graeme.
There’s no voltage coming to one sensor and he’s narrowing it down to one of the CPU’s in the cab.
He’s pretty sure that’s the cause of all the issues. Fifteen grand because of a two bit chip.
BLOODY COMPUTERS!!
I had a look over last years contract harvesters JD. I shuddered at the amount of wiring, sensors and CPU’s. Fault finding another couple of levels up from shaft not turning = v belt fallen off.
Collie coal is a right prick to use in a power station. Without coal from the Hebe seam in the blend, the run of mine coal is high ash, high moisture, full of shale and pyrite, and highly reactive.
Only a desperado would burn it in an open grate.
Thanks, Ukelele.

Go to clonazepam.

Fair dinkum, what happened to you? If it were available I’d offer conversion therapy on me.
Errr…. hi?
That one time a transgender exposed itself in a women’s restroom and forgot he was in Brazil.
That’s pretty funny, natural justice!
So, that would explain 4 cops going to a remote area for a routine welfare check an hour before knock off time.
The Trains bodies would be in pretty bad shape if the check was made on Tuesday, so it had to be Monday to construct a narrative.
Regarding Trump NFT’s I thought this was interesting…
“There is a maximum of 45,000 NFTs available to be minted during the Sweepstakes Entry Period, including a maximum of 44,000 NFTs available for purchase during the Sweepstakes Entry Period.”
Where and how/who gets the other 1,000?
Bird
Focus for a minute. How old are your kids now and are you seeing them?
So how do you even know their character is ‘good?’ Let alone ‘proven?’
So in other words, you’re still making it all up as you go along, eh Graeme? Like the atomic camouflets planted by the Mafia under contract to the dratted Mossads in your sock drawer that brought down the World Trade Centre some 30 years after their construction.
Or the Mossads somehow landed a ballistic missile on a warehouse full of badly stored fertiliser at the Beirut docks.

One of Bird’s funnier outbursts during the Coof period. He reckoned all the nasal swabs had sentient machines in them that were going to eat people’s brains and render them mind-controlled. Or something.
Truth is, he ended up producing a Cat meme on par with Struth’s Roadhouse Human Turd story. Though the latter has had better legs over time. 🙂

Dr David Cartland calls for the immediate suspension of the Covid injections, adding his name to a growing number of medical professionals from the UK calling for an end to the Covid19 injections due to the lack of safety and efficacy.
He’s right about this. There are absolutely fucking shocking Indian drivers here. Yes they are in a minority. Unfortunately stories like this are true. The good folk get incredibly embarrassed about this sort of stuff.
Hot cotting isn’t something I’d do either. However it solves the rental crisis.
Two bunks in each bedroom of a 4 bed home means that in theory almost 50 people can “live” there (you sleep in shifts). Maybe someone sleeps on a couch or on a fold out sofa.
Get an Indian here long enough and they won’t go back, they want their kids to be westernised Aussies.
Fijian Indians are basically Aussies. They fit in seamlessly.
So, in effect, what has been going on for the past two years is forced medical experimentation on the whole of humanity and outright murder.

Chuckle!
The Anglo Indians tend to be great people in my experience. More British than the British.
I used to work with an Anglo Indian welder, jaw dropping skill. I used to watch him weld and he’d talk me through what he was doing. Welding on a weldolet one day, he just stood in the one spot and did the whole 360, I don’t think he even needed to watch, just muscle memory and feeling his way with the rod. “Now watch this, I’m going to run up over where I started, if most people try this the weld will fail, but I can do it….” Finishes, as the weld cools, every scrap of flux just pops off and you can’t even tell where he started and finished.
He invited me to his house and I got to meet his wife. Just lovely, they never had kids which I reckon was a tragedy.

I reckon there’s a serious problem here. Their elite ending up in Australia or the US etc. are more and more showing up as having a very negative attitude towards whites.

NSW fast tracks mRNA FMD and Lumpy Skin Disease vaccines
The NSW Government has taken another step towards fast tracking the world first mRNA vaccines for Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) and Lumpy Skin Disease, inking a deal with US biotechnology company Tiba Biotech.

Thanks Ed.
I thought shitting onto the engine was a myth too. It just seems ridiculous. People I know (truck drivers and freight loaders) reckon they know third parties (heh) who have dealt with it directly – drivers or freight loaders talking to other truck guys. I asked them multiple times and assured me it wasn’t an urban myth.
Okay, so what do the staff do in the circumstance?
Also, take Magic Marvin’s comment toward me just before. There was no reason for it and the piece of shit doesn’t do it just to me as 95% of his comments are directed towards creating an argument. The other 5% are to tell us how wonderful and god like he is.
This comment
He took the comment that had nothing to do with him and tried to begin a stoush by throwing out a low IQ smart arse comment
Now here where it becomes problematic. His comment starts an argument and if it gets bad both are moderated, right? Is that right?
What’s the other option- to ignore it? Okay and he will continue doing. Ignoring the solderer won’t stop him. The only solution is to hurt the piece of shit twice as hard. Turning the other cheek is too meek for a douchebag like that.
See my point?
Stories there UHF told them.
I think it’s something to do the with the sexual marketplace where both males and females aren’t feeling they’re attracting white partners. Resentment builds.
I think you’re onto something. But the other aspect is that if things are heading in that direction, the Indian family will typically find a way to wreck things so that he/she can “find a nice Indian” to hook up with.

Also one pax completely lost, absolutely NFI where they had been sitting, not even 100% sure about which side of the plane!

The latter certainly can be treated using Iodine. I would, of course, add a drench with Ivermectin!
When I was researching the research development of the genetic “ vaccines” back in early 2021 (after hearing about the first death in Australia with AZ), I learned that this research had been underway for at least 20 years, using animals in trials. My understanding was that the frequent death of these research animals was the main reason why they did not proceed to human RCTs – until the Emergency provisions put into action following the outbreak of Covid.
Snopes has now given us an explanation how it’s possible. Both Little and Fox have allowed Indian drivers an appature access to take a running shit while on the job.

Why thank you Struth for proving me right.
The fact that you are here to comment means you have not lost your “future”. You still have options while you draw breath.
Who is the ignorant one I wonder?
JC, do you really think you’ve never done this? The third option is to point it out privately so they can be moderated. This applies to everyone. If people fall for the bait they also will be moderated. Punching back twice as hard has only worsened the situation because if people are baiting you that is exactly what they are looking for, while also attracting more baiting.

Okay, I pointed it out publicly so moderate Magic Marvin. Go on! He deliberately countered your request about toning it down and this is a great example of showing you mean it. Put him in the bin a dirty one too.

Struphid has been making racist comments for the past 48 hours. Surely, you’ve seen his comments. What have you done about it as the jumble-head is still here?

But it’s not a nice hit. It’s stupid, offers zero and the intention was mendacious, because you’re a piece of shit and have always been one. Two years, you attacked liz. Two fucking years and it was finally after I embarrassed you out of it that you stopped. Immediately, you went around looking for other targets because you have zero to offer any discussion.

Thais can’t do pies so it will have to wait.
It was probably Talair then. I won’t ask where in Goroka they lived. We were next door to the Anglican Church on the eastern side of the airstrip, but lots of expats on the western side also.
The Highland Show alternated between Hagen and Goroka. I have a great photo of my children with one of the accountants from the Beloved’s work. He’s fully decked out in the bilas, including the arse grass, and there are my little kids beside him, one in the stroller.
They weren’t at all concerned about the wild looking man with plumes in his hair and a boar’s tusk through his nose. The Mud Men frightened them though.
Don’t be thick, calli. Get back to us when you’ve suddenly become unemployed and aren’t entitled to benefits, you can’t pay your mortgage or rent, you’re homeless, there is no way up and it’s all based on a series of appallingly bad lies and tell us how it feels because that is what is happening.

One half-century in his last ten Test innings.
Strikingly similar to another sacked opener in recent times. Burns-esque, you might also say.
Dot it, you appalling midget houso cheat. Retire at the end of this match, and give Australia a Christmas to remember.
And yet it’s true.
Hold your breath and find out.
Minced mutton, sprinkled with gluten. Yummmm.
all based on a series of appallingly bad lies and tell us how it feels because that is what is happening
It certainly adds to the difficulty when your position is legitimate, and gets more legitimate with each passing revelation. Yet Bastard Government and a whole lot of Mong Sheep are screaming at you to “get the experimental medication”. Frankly I had a lot off difficulty assimilating that this was real and that it was actually happening, it was and still is a fucking nightmare.
You may not see them (especially is if your surrounded by enablers with there own agenda’s) but you always have options. Killing is never an option unless its self defence.
Preach it brother. GF, of course.
this is what I’m talking about
frog-shit
enough
To crush your pie tins.
To see their crumbs driven before you.
And hear the lamentations of their gravy.
This is what pie shop is best in life.

Neighbour I had was an international cricketer that was going to marry an Indian lass. Family was dead against a mixed marriage. Her family. They got married. Her brother and family came with them including his wifes brother and family. They had the best Indian restaurant in town, always busy.
Typed without any sense of self-awareness by the main offender for every sin listed in that comment.
But I was just being funny and instead of taking such a stern line you could have said.. , “good onya, nice hit you clever bastard” instead of throwing a spazz about it.
And on the subject of pies,
I’m bringing pastry back!
Yep every bit Turtlehead. By the way, did you check with the doc to see the idione won’t interact negatively with the other serious meds your taking as a result of the heart transplant?
How very convenient. A great shopping list of conditions…and then, and only then, am I entitled to “get back” to you.
Grow up. Do you honestly think I haven’t been in situations that are seemingly hopeless? Not quite like your conditional list, but imposed unfairly and beyond my control. Everyone experiences horrible circumstances in their lives. Everyone.
whoops iodine..
Beechworth Bakery.
Oh, and Ted. You’ve blown in especially to abuse me.
I wonder why. I’ve never ever abused you. Wouldn’t dream of it. Yet here we are.
Sacré bleu, Cats!
I should entertain guests at the cottage more often. A wonderful afternoon was had by all, chowing down on various tastee protein treats prepared on the BBQ by Hairy and Dragnet. The ladees were transfixed by my many anecdotes about Miss Emily, although various wallees present claimed that she was obviously just a figment of my imagination.
“No eastern suburbs glamourpuss party chick would be willingly seen dead in the company of an inner west dinobore of the economist persuasion”, was just one of the many heartless barbs aimed at me this afternoon. 😕
The only real bummer was the herculean effort this morning to bash the place into some semblance of respectability. One and a half hours on the front and back gardens alone, not to mention the bathroom bleaching.
Over and out, Cats, time to relax. 🙂
You may not see them (especially is if your surrounded by enablers with there own agenda’s) but you always have options. Killing is never an option unless its self defence.
You always have options, but that’s assuming that you have the remaining mental capacity to think of what those options might be, and the remaining strength to gird your loins and execute plans around those options. Some people find themselves in these situations with nothing left in the tank.
Blithely saying “you always have options” doesn’t cut it, especially when it’s Government that turned peoples world upside down. That’s something when the most powerful authority in the land has decided to fuck you out of the blue.
LOL. How old are you Rex? Ridley Didge Pies were in Tamworth for a few months (maybe 3 months if that) about 20 odd years ago. The BIL did some work on the “shop front” over a weekend because the franchisee was desperate to open on the Monday. He then squelched on the bill (claiming some bullshit it was too expensive despite being quoted up front what it was going to cost). The BIL wasn’t the only tradie who had to chase his money from the dodgy bastard. From memory, he never got paid (or might have got a part payment).
At the end of the day, Ridgy Didge were basically only in town for a short period of time (a few months at most). I’ve nothing against the pies or the company (it’s a franchise operation out of Port Macquarie). Not sure if the parent company had any internal relationship to the dude, but it was definitely a “fly by nighter”.
The registered address still appears on the internet, but I can assure you, it’s not there. It hasn’t been there for decades. The property owner of the site probably took the franchise agreement in exchange for unpaid rent. It looks to be the old “Markers Bakery Shop” which is now a Ice Cream shop or something or other.
Lurkerscreechers!
Mate of mine has a very good bakery. Bumped into him the other day. He says “I haven’t seen you in lately”. I can’t afford your prices. He looked hurt. $7.50 for a pie and you don’t make chunky beef and pepper. People pay it. Iget mine from a Vietnamese bloke, $4.50 and his pastry is better. Don’t think he’s going to speak to me any more.
I was talking about moderation which incl. everyone, including you.
You did it earlier by calling a commenter a ‘faggot’.
Two things, firstly, re Ed Case, because he largely ignores it the thread is largely unaffected. Secondly, I never told you to ignore it and that’s it, I told you, and anyone else, to notify me.
Also, the big difference Turtlehead between your comparison and reality is that unlike you and a few others and especially the Liz bashers, I stoushed on my own against others who fight back. It was always one on one. The liz bashing was around 8 on 1 against someone who never fought back, you degenerate fleabrain. And stop hiding behind that veneer as we know who you are and it’s not going to change anything you big cowardly coward.
I see no one is putting up the pies from the tuck shop at high school.
Generally the worst pies ever baked. The base was either burnt solid or fell out like trap door when you picked it up for a bite.
Small pieces of meat floating in tasteless clear stuff that didn’t even look like gravy. The pastry would stick to the roof of your mouth like glue.
Inedible without tomato sauce.
Being reset to financial zero, at or beyond the age of one’s prime, with the ability to ply your trade or utilise your experience totally denied, for life, is a very serious circumstance to be in.
Very few are able to grasp what this may feel like. As so many, provided they don’t take up crime, will never face the prospect of losing their entire life’s bankroll, plus being denied all avenues of utilising their professional qualifications and their experience, & have to start again, beyond their physical prime, at entry level jobs competing against twenty year olds.
And that is what would be like to have your future prospects removed.
Okay, I’m notifying you now on the on the matrix comment. Also I’m notifying you on the Strupid’s racist comment earlier today.
Dover
When I saw Strupid racist comment and you not doing it anything about it, I took it to mean nothing was going to change, so hence the faggot comment directed to Rooster. Actually it was fastidiously fastidious faggot to be exact.
Chunky beef pies are $5.80 from my local Vietnamese bloke. They’re very chunky and very yum.
With lots of tomato sauce! I am thankful for Vietnamese Aussie bakers.
Sadly the Vietnamese fish and chip shop, which had works hamburgers to die for, closed, and was recently replaced by a Dominos.
Pies, it’s either this one or the pie shop in Culverden.

Man, there was nothing on Earth like hooning around the port of Lyttleton in the Cortina as an apprentice and getting a pie and Coke for lunch.
You don’t get good pies in nob suburbs. The pie is working man food made by working men bakers.
That’s just a stupid cop out. Either abuse is essentially done or it’s not. Eddles taking it or not does zero for how others see it and behave.
The original story had a crew of four.
Chuckle. I see I’m Mrs Popularity!
Just goes to show it’s not just the Left that’s tribal.
Garlands in Kangaroo flat is not too bad for the Australian version after the Gillies factory closed.
Couple of pizza places round here still hanging on thank goodness.
The one in Malmsbury was good back in the day when the highway still went through there.
Taleb wrote a book called anti-fragility. It talks about always having enough surplus to be able to encounter adversity. He directed that primarily towards businesses. It also applies to people too. One should always have enough reserves on hand which somewhat explains a little in favor of Calli’s comment.
The pieshop in Yackandandah, Gumtree Pies is pretty good. There is a nice pie shop in Hawks Nest NSW too. I’m still trying to shed the kilos from my August visit there.
I’ll disagree that Calli wouldn’t know what it is to have one helluva setback.
If I had to pick a half dozen Cats who knew what is like to be blindsided financially & have faced the consequent seemingly hopeless situation, Calli would be among them.
Nice theory. The reality may differ somewhat.
I am told that the best pies to be had are from the bakery in GinGin
The argument went as follows:
People who’s “future” was ripped from them did something unconscionable.
My point was that they still had a “future” because they were still living and had choices.
No, no, was the answer. They had no choice. They did what they did because…reasons. Many, many reasons.
Apparently my comment was the stupidest thing that has ever been said at the Cat.
I think your confusion lies in the fact that there are 3 StreetShitters taking a dump in the back while one StreetShitter is steering the rig, and therefore not taking a dump.
Get the picture?
It’s interesting in thus debate that, in fact, Stacey Train told colleagues that she wasn’t concerned about losing her job because of covid mandates, as they had enough money to manage for years.
It probably beats towing the Model A downtown and plonking it out the front of the bakery before daylight.
Nah, you’ve said plenty of stupider things in the past, and I’ve got confidence in you making even stupider comments in the future.
Particularly on Brittany Higgins and the Train family.
If you’ve had three jabs, and you are not going for number 4…hero! A shame you f*cked up with getting the first.

I think it’s a really good idea for the sake of the blog if you no longer tried to interact with me. It always ends up badly with you usually heading into the wee hours filling your head with stoushing. You need to be up early for work in the mornings. So just ignore whatever I say and I’ll always assume you disagree anyway. Frankly you offer little counter and it always ends up with you lying and dissembling to avoid backtracking.
It’s not a theory, it’s called saving for a rainy day. My parents did and their generation were more than aware of having to do so. If you didn’t and were clobbered then it’s on you for not having the foresight to save enough to get you through a bad period. You’re were bad at business and should have been an employee, which I think you are now, right?
Please don’t take this as entering a stoush but JC is quite the comedian in his role as head perfect trying to be the noble one preventing the stoushers.
Hilarious.
Get back to us when you’ve
suddenly become unemployed – tick
and aren’t entitled to benefits – tick
you can’t pay your mortgage or rent – tick
you’re homeless – no, still got the house with a massive mortgage
there is no way up – no, there was a way up but it meant starting again
it’s all based on a series of appallingly bad lies – the ANZ bank lied to me and then tried to cover it up
and tell us how it feels because that is what is happening.
I won’t tell you how it felt. I’m over it.
Ahh, the days when pies were judged by whether eating one gave you enough energy to wield the crank-handle of one’s model A, sufficient to actually start the machine.
Surreal
Request the no interaction then asks a question.
Fish and Chip shops used to use Mutton Tallow in the Cookers.
When they switched to Seed Oils, they started closing down.
Now, the oil is recycled by solvents, Fish and Chippers are few and far between.
I wonder what would happen if they went back to Mutton Tallow?
Probably visits from Council Departments, broken windows, spray paint …
Nah, just kidding.
Fernvale Bakery – if you find yourself on the Brisbane Valley Highway.
(Yes, minced mutton is the biz – a supernatural trip back to childhood Dingle Pies.)
You don’t normally make stupid comments, calli, let alone mind bogglingly stupid ones. I’ll assume it’s your day off and you’re pretending to be Ed. I don’t come to the Cat much anymore and other than Tom and a few of the old regulars with good posts and comments it’s excruciating reading. Why? Because you’re not leading normal lives. You’re leading totally abnormal lives. Open your bloody eyes the lot of you.
You’re free to not read me.
Lol.
What time does my workday start?
More than anything else this reveals the paucity of your opinion.
Never happened.
You’re rarely the innocent party.
You should cease escalation of abuse, then nothing gets out of hand.
Your are quite clueless whenever you stray outside your lane.
You’re not the smartest person on this blog.
Get used to that.
I’m just being funny and instead of taking such a stern line you should say, “good onya, nice hit you clever bastard”
The ultimate delusion, Ted.
You are the only “normal” one. And ones who think just like you.
Think about that.
calli has handled herself with great dignity and barely concealed furious anger.
As it should be.
Yes, teachers are paid too much!
Noble? Perhaps. the difference between you and me rooster is that I find your sincerity about desiring a safe space to be dishonestly selective. You don’t like me, I rub you the wrong way ( no, don’t get exited as I don’t mean it that way and we know that sort of talk does get you het up). I think I’ve said often enough that is obvious, I don’t like pile-ons. I don’t like happening to me and I don’t like it happening to others. I spoke up and beat the living shit out of those clowns who went after Liz. I stopped it. You remained silent like the little pussy you are and have always been even though you claim to dislike stoushes etc.. However, when it’s opportune you join pile-ons against me because that’s what you do.
So call it comedic. Call it what you like, but your view on this subject is worth zero seeing you’re both a pussy and a hanger on. Lastly, you having nothing to say that’s interesting on any subject -at least in my opinion.
when I was a teen I worked a deli cum sandwich place
we used to rotisserie about 50 chickens at a time
and the render we used to top up the oil for the chips
best chips you ever tasted
I know you are as you know I believe that, so please fuck off as it never ends well.
It sounds blithely because you don’t want to hear it. Inspite of what happened to you you made better choices then those three. Don’t identify with them it will do you no good.
I expect many at this pincushion club to rush off and get the latest jab.
Gee, thanks, Teddles. Here I was hoping that I’d finally got my life back on track* after three years of unrelenting shit and you blunder on in here and disabuse me, calli and various others.
Grate work, squire. 😕
*Only a butterfly flapping its wings in the Amazon can prevent me living a glorious life with Miss Emily, happily ever after …
You always were an idiot, tickler.
It would be better if you did that.
For it is you who is unable to hold their temper.
Self-control is a real bastard isn’t it?
Get back to us when you’ve
suddenly become unemployed – tick
and aren’t entitled to benefits – tick
Yeah, it’s all about you, all the time.
Rather than make up your own facts, read some facts.
Stacey and Gareth Train owned their home.
They weren’t short of a Quid.
There’s no evidence of any acrimony over her quitting her job.
The Media haven’t been able to find anyone credible to say a bad word about her.
All you know for sure is that 3 Train family members, 2 police and a neighbor are dead.
Why not leave it at that, rather than vociferously attack the Trains like a slavering hyena.
True, mostly I don’t and you should extend the same “courtesy” to me.
Obviously it’s not in the evening which is when you’re here usually in a drunken state trying hard to stoush by either lying about something or joining a pile on. Work therefore has to therefore be in the morning, no?
Was it?
Bugger- I remember getting there at least once. And the TV adverts that went with it.
Yay for being a childrens around that time…
