The Random thought thread

It's unbelievable what you see at the supermarket.

 

[facthunter]

Melons? or half a Jersey Cow. Nev

[onetrack]

She's holding a couple of butternut pumpkins, right?

[red750]

I was expecting them to pop out any second.

[Marty_d]

Not to be that guy, but you could get yourself in trouble photographing women without their permission.

[nomadpete]

Maybe I'm just critical, but I  object to the publishing of that aweful picture.

 

 

It has dreadfully poor lighting.

The subject is poorly framed.

The focus is way out.

 

Clearly the photographer needs serious counselling.

 

Why on earth did you post it, Peter?

 

[red750]

a. She obviously was not concerned being seen like that.

 

b. I was sitting outside the self checkout area  of Woolies, about 15 metres away. I had my iPhone in hand and thought, this is too rare to miss. It has been cropped and enlarged.

[pmccarthy]

You clearly like to keep abreast of things.

[facthunter]

Likes the Booby Prize?  Nev

Do you think she needs enlargment?

 

Last night, I stopped at Fleet Motorway services on the way home to get a bite to eat. It was late - a little after 10pm and the services were quite empty. Sitting on one of the charis was a couple.. he looked reasonabley professional. She was covered in tatts from head to toe, quite large, and her mammaries were commensurate with the rest of her size, and there was very little left to the imagination, apart from I know why metal prices are high - the amount stuck into her face caused a shortage of the stuff. 

 

I don't normally take stock of those around me in alternative gear, but I had to try and work out what it really was.. 

 

I dare not take a photo - would have had to replace the lens afterwards.

They say "Don't knock it IF you haven't tried it." But I would give it a Miss . You don't know where she's Been.  Nev

[nomadpete]

Seriously, I think the pic in question should not have been taken.  

There is nothing special about the subject matter. 

 

[Jerry_Atrick]

New random thought I had this morning.. If the Hawks win the preliminary final, as a member, I get priority access to grand final tickets. If I can get one, I  will be in Aus next week.

 

[facthunter]

ARE you that Keen?  Nev

[Jerry_Atrick]

Yes.... 

 

Keen for an excuse to take a few days off (my manager is married to a Melbournian and knows it is a solemn religious festival, and not merely sport). 

 

Keen for an excuse to get to Aus, even if for a few days

 

Keen to catch up with a few people I haven't for quite some time.

 

And enjoy a game of footy at the same time

Sitting for Hours in an Airborne Cattle truck wondering IF the Guys up front Know what they are doing and the Ship will hang together? IT IS statistically SAFE by a country Mile and it's the Only way to go But I don't find it fun unless I'm up the front where I would HAVE a Fighting chance. . I'd always prefer to drive rather THAN pax. Nev

[Jerry_Atrick]

Yes.. In the old days, I had my way of getting to the front. Sadly 9/11 closed that off.

 

Thanksfully I don't get hangovers.. Am usually fully rested by the time the plane lands in Melbourne.

Can you believe that customers are complaining that the new Apple iPhone Air has failings  --  because the USB-C port on the bottom is slightly off-centre?

 

 

[Jerry_Atrick]

If you buy Apple for anytjing other than aethetics these days, you're being ripped off. They were great innovators and disrupters, but the pack has caught up iand in some cases overtaken Apple and much lower prices.

 

So, yeah, I would complain, too..  😉

Looks like getting to Aus will take a little longer:

[Jerry_Atrick]

Ha Ha.. When I told my son, as I was going to bring him over as well, his response was, "Great, dad! Can I have the £800 you were going to spend on me?"

 

 

[nomadpete]

You don't really want to come. 

 

It's raining, and miserable, just like the 'old country'.

[Jerry_Atrick]

That is music to my eyes
