I drove all the way from Sydney to a small town to see snow fall in my own state whilst cheering for my state in the state of Origin. I am sitting in my state whilst it's snowing outside to watch the State of Origin. I'd like to see you Queenslanders do that. Sure, you might have warm sunny weather, be we have that too, it's called summer. We have something you don't, and that's snow!



Go The Blues!

If finally got to drive in a real, decent snowfall

5 seat radius of empty seats around the guy. Dont think they cared enough to notice. He had this attitude around him like it didn't matter because his toenails just disappeared on the ground like he was in a public park or something throwing breadcrumbs at birds instead of being inside a seabus.


The only thing comparable to this is the infamous Shenzhen ground spitters.

Literally if you walk through the city, you’re going to witness again and again, the sight of a person walking by while clearing his throat and then casually spitting at the ground.

So I replied to an OP which is an adbot. Err.... whoops.

They are getting clever, or my common sense is getting lower.

Global History exam today, since I am a history nerd I know I should probably ace this! Woo! Hoo! Words!

At least now you know how to deal with a clever adbot!

As a New Yorker, I hate snow. You can probably see why, and if not, don't ask. It gets disgusting.

I am finished with my Global History exam! I did the essay in advance so only 25+ questions and some short responses in only 44 or so minutes.

Yes, I'm a history nerd.

History was my favourite subject in school. I always read the textbooks in advance and even went to the library to look up more books and stuff just for fun. It's unfortunate that college history never jibbed with me.

When a parent knows their five year old son has ADHD and treat him so roughly, it makes me cringe. You know your child can’t help the way he feels. Don’t rough him around like that.

Reminds me of that youtuber who gave away their autistic son after adopting him. Absolutely despicable.

And once you're properly vaccinated, you gain the ability to infect the unvaccinated with your vile ultravaxx powers or something. I'm still waiting for my full suite of corrupting ultravaxx powers to activate, it's taking longer than expected.

There's also this thing about people claiming they became magnetic after being vaccinated or having been in contact with vaccinated people, because it used to be so that small objects never sticked to human skin before. Strangely enough the application of talcon powder to your miraculously magnetic skin tends to nullify the effect. So weird.

Besides having increased protection against COVID-19, which seems to be a pretty good side effect.
