- Comment on Queensland PhD candidate accused of plotting to firebomb Australia Day 2 days ago:
Saryazdi has a master of mathematical sciences from the University of Sydney, according to his online profiles.
Math - not even once!
- Comment on Melbourne goes from among the most to least expensive capital cities 6 days ago:
I wonder if there will be a riot/strike anyway?
I mean how long before people refuse to work just to pay someone else’s mortgage?
- Comment on Melbourne goes from among the most to least expensive capital cities 6 days ago:
So increased land taxes and unoccupied home taxes do work to stop prices rising quickly. Now take away negative gearing and CGT discounts and do all of this across the country!

- Comment on My petty gripe: a large flat white is an oxymoron – a bastardisation of the drink Australia gave the world 1 week ago:
I am glad someone finally had the courage to stand up and say this.
- Comment on Ibis chicks are as ugly as I imagined... 1 week ago:
Maybe it murdered its sibling.
So it could eat more KFC from the local bins itself !

LOL sounds like Delivery Unlimited certainly has its limits!

- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
If they are very devout they have probably been taught that homosexuality is a sin. They didn’t know what to say so went with “that’s nice”
That’s what I would expect anyway.
- Comment on Victoria, SA, NSW brace for 'worst' heatwave since Black Summer 2 weeks ago:
Time to stock up on Zooper Doopers !
- Comment on Do people actually believe those "gurus" on the internet that supposedly "give advice"? These seems very sussy and feel scam-adjacent, isn't it? 2 weeks ago:
Some do apparently or they wouldn’t keep making the videos. Same thing for people who send out phishing emails and other scams. It must work sometimes.
“Spiritual gurus”, “self help gurus”, “crypto gurus”, “business gurus” they tend to be full of shit because if they were as good as they claim they would be making money with their skills and insights instead of making YouTube videos.
Why people fall for it just because someone claims to be an “expert” I will never understand, but I guess you could say the same about many things: advertising, politics, religion etc.
- Comment on Is "depress" ever used in this context? 2 weeks ago:
It’s weird because the words desynchronize, de-stress, decriminalize mean un-synchronize, un-stress, un-criminalize
So it would seem like depress should mean un-press (let go of the button).
But depress = press !

Ha ha now this is an answer I can get behind !!
- Comment on The amount of sense NYE party glasses make has rapidly declined. 3 weeks ago:
It’s true. With COVID and the cost of living it is a bit hard to celebrate another year coming.
What can we do to make 2026 better ?
- Comment on People that go commando have pee and poo on their pants 3 weeks ago:
Using a butt plug will mitigate the poo particles.
- Comment on oi mates wtf is going on over there 3 weeks ago:
Peter Dutton was advocating nuclear about a year ago but I haven’t heard much since then.
Why we haven’t pivoted more towards solar, I don’t know.
I guess because it threatens the profits of coal, oil and gas?
- Comment on Magic mushroom use rises despite concerns about little known paralysis syndrome 4 weeks ago:
Who to believe?
“Wood-lover’s Paralysis (WLP) is an extremely rare, but potentially fatal, toxidrome causing unpredictable muscle weakness.
Dr Simon Beck, an MD in his final year of psychiatry training, and Mr Caine Barlow MSc, a mycologist and education officer for Ethnogenesis Australis, along with Dr Monica Barratt and Dr Liam Engel, have been the first to describe Wood-lover’s Paralysis in a study published in Toxicon.
According to the Victorian Coroner’s report, released this month, WLP was potentially associated with the death of Rachael Lee Dixon, who ingested magic mushrooms at a wellness retreat last year.”

If they can live 150 years without food do they really need help?
Sounds like the elves are immortal to me ?
- Comment on Australia’s roads are full of giant cars, and everyone pays the price. What can be done? 5 weeks ago:
Ban Ford Rangers at least. The drivers tend to be inconsiderate psychos.
They can ride eBikes instead.
- Comment on The stats don’t lie. Australia’s tax system is designed to benefit the wealthiest and the rest of us pay for it 5 weeks ago:
Discounted CGT and negative gearing come to mind…
- Comment on The stats don’t lie. Australia’s tax system is designed to benefit the wealthiest and the rest of us pay for it 5 weeks ago:
Of course it is.
Corporations offshore profits to tax havens to avoid paying too much tax.
Wealthy individuals mostly make money from investments rather than salary and pay discounted CGT instead of income tax on most of their money
The middle class and poor get to pay more to make up for this nonsense.

Very true
- Comment on Australia’s Social Media Ban Was Pushed By Ad Agency Focused On Gambling Ads It Didn’t Want Banned 5 weeks ago:
Yes gambling gets a pass every time in this country. The only state where Greyhound racing is banned is ACT. Tas plans to phase it out by 2029
