We had our football match (I’m the coach) interrupted by 6 Kangaroos hopping through the pitch last week.

I’ve have had all the interruptions in the past - bush fire smoke, cyclonic rain, fights on and off the pitch, dogs, bee swarms, dangerous materials in the ground but the Roos was kinda cool.

Playing cricket at school once, we had a Eastern Brown snake on the pitch as we turned up. the 2 coaches and umpires tried to chase it off making noise and stomping on the ground forcing it to move down the pitch. Then the little smart arse slithered off to the side and tried to circle around behind them.

That would be typical of you. What did the snake do?

A great victory for Oz’s ability to inflict dubious foods on distant populations.

Vegemite, bleah.

It’s not to my taste but it’s much healthier than lots of what you folk, influenced by your even more unhealthy neighbours, eat.

Never been to Canada but this gives me thought to maybe visit America’s 51st state :winking_face_with_tongue:

Toast, real butter, and Vegemite laid on quite thick so that the toast is almost black. Num num.

Add strong chedder and you have culinary perfection

I could tell straight away that only one PM could be so brazen on the subject: that fucking cunt John Howard.

These words are so typical of him:

ā€œBut we can’t, and shouldn’t do that at the cost of reducing the wealth effect and the wealth value of people who have existing properties, there’s nothing to be gained by that.ā€

Yeah, we shouldn’t try to limit wealthy people who have multiple investment properties, should we John? Those aren’t people we should be limiting wealth of. They provide so much for society :roll_eyes:.

Honestly I hate hate hate the way even normal people were able to get into the investment property game in Aus and flicked the bird to their own kids and grandkids, not only because governments made it so easy but because they were born in the right period.

Thirty. Fucking. Percent. That’s the percentage of properties in Australia that are investment properties. And we wonder why our future population is completely fucked.

I think investment properties should be completely outlawed. I don’t know why they even exist. It’s a joke that the concept hasn’t been completely shut down by governments. Btw, I’m sure 30% will be one of the highest figures, if not the highest, across the world.

In the May election, I wouldn’t be caught dead voting for Lib or Nationals, but I won’t be voting for Labour either. Albanese is a property mogul, and as such, he won’t even make an effort to even look to solve the housing crisis. Fuck him.

I live in a National/Liberal stronghold (thanks Gympie!), so it’s not like my vote counts for anything anyway.

That’s the end of my rant. :face_with_symbols_on_mouth:

Does the chedder (sic) go on top of the Vegemite or below it?

When the penal colony jokes just tell themselves…
