  1. I kind of agree but only where the holder of such views influences others with them. If it's just your average idiot on a forum, no. If it's an influencer with 10,000 followers, yes.
  2. But back to topic - yes I think Jerry has it but it's damn depressing. The fact that people are angry at the status quo I get. The fact that they don't care that things can get a lot worse for them, that's the sad bit. Looks like the lessons we should be learning from the USA are not being learned. Dark times ahead.
  3. Unless your phone is really old, you should be able to search up "wi-fi calling" in Settings and switch that on. Then you can get calls and texts with your phone using wi-fi from your home internet.
  4. With the vastly inflated ego, I'm not sure there's any room left for a brain.

    Actually I think you blokes are right. I'd like to change my answer to 70.
  6. Well, I watched about 10 minutes but the bum in the jeans was nowhere to be seen. False advertising! 😄

    I think 50.
  8. Jerry, if I read the first post correctly, you said you paid 1500 for this bike. Given the ongoing electrical problems, if you can get 1200 for it, that would seem to be an excellent option.
  9. I remember when my eldest son was 8, he helped me move the branches from a fallen tree to the burning pile. He worked all day. Someone at work told me later that 8 year olds have the equivalent energy to professional AFL players.
  10. Counter turn. Pushing the left handlebar causes the bike to lean left, which makes you turn left.

    Definitely 10.
  12. I think the Democrats are having their own existential crisis. All over the place, "socialist" candidates (translation: candidates who want to represent real people, not whoever pays the most) are winning elections - against the wishes of the DNC. So the traditional reps, who want the bribes, er, sorry, "donations" to keep rolling in, are shitting themselves.

    140.
  14. Not only is he a dickhead, he's also unimaginative. He already tried to change the Gulf of Mexico to "Gulf of America". Can't he think of any other names?
  15. Love that movie. Saw a very good stage production of it too.
  16. State and local governments are racing to entice data centres without any thought for the environment, or power costs for the rest of the population for that matter. Because a few dollars in rates and a couple of security guard jobs are far more important than all the downsides.
  17. Now that's art I can appreciate.

    Good thing they don't have almond cream then...
  20. We have Tamar valley yoghurt but never the low fat version. Their normal is delicious and thick.

    They have a bright future.
  23. Companies who make profits in Australia often have overseas shareholders. I reckon if you compare remittances to the money going overseas to those shareholders, it'd be a drop in the bucket.
  24. They look for the overlap, Ven.
