My obligatory “as someone who grew up in the country” bit: =)

I’ll add to this that Show Day was only for Melbourne, it wasn’t a statewide holiday. At least with the GF day, everyone gets it.

I’ll keep an eye on the skies for your fence… hope it’s all still good! 😬

The cream, the bone, the off-white, the white, the ivory, or the beige?

And I’m fully prepared to sulk away in embarrassment if nobody gets the reference…

I just can’t upvote this enough, hard-agree.

I thought ** I ** was reasonably prepared and knew what to expect, and the reality of parenthood still kicked my arse. Still wouldn’t change it for the world :D

More updates in our 4 o’clock bulletin

I’ve seen that scene in Ghostbusters too.

Mine was seriously using a cheese knife to spread butter on Sunday. But he’s only 4 so I’ll cut him some slack :D

Today will kick arse and chew gum, and it’s all outta gum.

Oh man…

I was there during the 2016 elections and couldn’t believe the amount of “political merchandising”:

The way today is going I’d end up with a Brian instead. I mean, I’m sure he’d be friendly and all, but still! 🫠

At this point I’ll take whatever you got. Much appreciated!

If anyone has found my brain can they please let me know? Reward offered. Many thanks.

My concentration and focus is totally out the window today, I just spent way too long trying to remember what I was in the middle of doing at work after being interrupted by a phone call. Simple tasks seem way too hard today.

It’s gonna be a long week…

“Did you see that ludicrous display last night? What was Wenger thinking sending Walcott on that early? The thing about Arsenal is, they always try to walk it in!”

Ha I did something similiar a few years back.

Apparently I’m some kind of heathen because I liked Shake Shack better than In N Out.

See cat -> upvote.

Oh man I also remember going up to the cockpit on a Melbourne-Darwin Ansett flight back in 1988 or so. Such a shame my own son will likely not experience that (unless he becomes a pilot himself of course).

My least favourite flight would have to be on a work trip across the Cook Strait between Auckland and Christchurch, in a small (I think Saab) commuter turboprop. Went through a storm so bad that I swear the wings were about to come off… the only flight I’ve ever been on where a round of applause broke out on landing and the pilots looked physically relieved afterwards.

Similar problem at work. IT, but we are -not- helpdesk/support.

Have a few frequent flyers who will continually just keep knocking on our (locked) door, constantly, no pauses, until someone turns up. Don’t even have the decency to knock and wait at least 3 seconds.

Inevitably it’s something they should be calling the helpdesk for (no we cannot reset your password or create a shared calendar for you) or they want to ‘just borrow’ some random cable that we’ll never see again. They get all huffy when sent away, but it keeps happening.

So thankful we won the fight with management to be allowed to lock our door, it was even worse in the before times…

Sorry that triggered a rant… :|

Oh I hear ya. 3 hours into my working week and I am DONE…

So I guess if you were up the top of it you’d be at…

wuthering heights?

Don’t worry, I’ll see myself out.

Ah my second-favourite school chant. A true classic.
