some prob stopped ringing because they were dead

'career'

Why does Hollywood continue to remake movies? because they didn’t ruin it the first time

I love that we have to cop a cavity search from an uppity chemist trying to buy a box of headache tablets, yet somehow these people have no probs buying 180kg of a GHB alternative

he has nothing to lose.. may as well try the Trump playbook

By 'refurbishing' the existing sleepers, I hope they mean stripping it back to a set of wheels then re-building everything above, because there is nothing in the current sleeper carriages worth salvaging... the whole thing squeaks and groans and makes for the worst might sleep imaginable (unless you are dog tired). They are well past their used by date

How much lost money have I walked past in my life and not noticed.. can also include gold.

No, I was pointing out that you seem to need a visual queue to understand sarcasm.. might have saved you some time instead of needing to go on a rant

Sorry, should have put lmao at the end of my message..

Are we gonna cancel Batman now?

Can you imagine the lengths these companies go to to screw over the producers? We often look at how it hurts our pockets, but for Coles and Woolworths, the profit margin works both sides. Say milk, if they screw the producer down so it is only barely profitable (can’t have them not being able to supply) and then pump up the price for the consumer, it is a double win.

The Force Awakens was ok, but pretty much the same underlying story as A New Hope

The second movie was a woeful middle finger to The Force Awakens which added nothing at all to the story, in fact 1/3 of the movie was pointless. The code breaker / casino arc didn’t impact what happened after the casino

The third movie felt like it was created around cutting room floor footage of Leia, and they turned Kylo into a pussy.

If I am doing a Star Wars marathon, it is Rogue One, 4, 5, 6 and 7

pisspoor fines.. just the cost of doing business. So their multi-million dollar property now has better multi million dollar views. House should be turned into rubble and converted into a park

I remember when 3G first came out and it was a game changer.. everything was fast and responsive. Now days, 3G just seems to have enough capacity to make a call, data is effectively useless if the phone flips to the dreaded 3G. It is like they slowly turned off the tap for it

Lets see how this works out for them. Why even have a job selection process? Just wait for the first person to walk through the door with the 'look' that feels right

A mate once came up to Sydney from Melbourne and he thought it was hilarious how Sydney people tuck their L and P plates in places like behind windscreens and half behind license plates. He said in Melb they would be fined every day of the week.

In my mind, the only way to fix the housing crisis is to implement policy which will effectively collapse the housing market, and that would be a suicidal move by any party so they just wont do it. Every day is some story of the Government's attempt to fix it, the latest was building 3,000 appartments next to the Metro at Macquarie Park. In what world does anyone think these things will be affordable when they are 30 mins from the city and a walk to the metro?

The only ways I can see to fix it is to grandfather capital gains tax discounts on investments and kill AirBNB

Also, while I like the notion of affordable housing, I don't think it is possible to build. Nothing is affordable these days. Affordable labour and materials don't really exist..

end of the day, good. I feel all politicians need to know when it is perceived they are doing a good job vs when they aren't

2 men arrested at 12:30pm, currently under guard at hospital with injuries from the crash

Same story as everyone else.. I used to have Netflix, Spotify, Disney+ and Tidal, now I only have Tidal. I have always owned a NAS and that is my main source of media consumption now. I just cant justify the $100 or so a month it costs to keep all these services and I struggle to find anything I am interested in. The worst thing about streaming services is the disruption to the movie industry.. movies these days either feel like a couple of $200m+ productions or straight to streaming.. there is no in between, and the straight to streaming stuff feels half cooked
