    Black hole sun is a hard sing to learn but I finally got it. With covers I’m not trying to sound like the original singer which helps.

    Any recommendations for Tasmania in Nov/Dec in a campervan? Looking at Mona, a whiskey tour and Wine Glass Bay.

      Hobart :

      for me MONA is a must see although some people are put off by various art pieces.(even to the point of lawsuits). Also the dedicated ferry to and from MONA is more fun and I think you might need to book ahead for some exhibitions

      Port Arthur is great. Plan an entire day there, have picnic and take the boat to the Isle of the Dead for an interesting guided tour of the penal colony cemetery.

      Some of my favourite food and drink in Hobart:

      Bar Wa Izakaya , a super fun Japanese restaurant

      Urban Greek, delicious food and great service

      Landscape grill for excellent steak

      The Den Salamanca, cozy whiskey/cocktail bar to chill out after you hit the market. The food is good as well.

      Moto Vecchia cafe, for nice coffee and brekkie. They are super friendly there. It’s just across the river.

      Further afield: King Solomons cave in Liena is really cool guided tour and worth the drive. Stop in Mumma Buzz’s Cafe in Deloraine for excellent egg and bacon roll

      Cataract Gorge in Launceston is a beautiful bike or walk track

      If we take the Spirit, we normally book the overnight trip.

      Port Arthur is pretty interesting if you’ve never been and there’s an animal sanctuary not far from there too.

      museums and zoos

      beaches of course

    Two tall guys at work checked to see who was taller. The guy in the much less senior position won out, so I wanted to say “heightmogged by a clearancemaxxing customerservicechad” but then you need to explain to everyone what each of those words mean and why you know them

      I’m upset that I know what that sentence means. It’s knowledge I’ve acquired against my will.

    One of the techs at work is a negger and it’s very strange. Well, maybe not quite a negger, but just an odd cat. I went into the kitchen to throw my banana peel out and he says “what, no coffee? Come on Spin…” or I was working with a machine the other day and he just walked past and whispered “omg you broke it”.

    Most oddly, last week I was cleaning something and it made me gag (it was just mud) and he started goading me on to make me vomit. I had to run away!

      Sounds like an obnoxious dick who will pretend he was only trying to be funny if confronted. Is he doing this to other people or just you?

      Things like this make me so very very glad I’m ASD because this man would have been hit with so many **“What the *FUCK”***s he would have fled weeing his stupid little pants.

    • Seagoon_@aussie.zone ⁨14⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      confront directly about the negging

      it could be a bad habit or he could be a dick

      Either ZERO people skills or actively hostile. That’s not odd, that’s diagnosable. And creepy.

    • StudChud@aussie.zone ⁨14⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      To play devil’s advocate, perhaps he thinks he’s being playful? Like, banter or something. At least, that’s my experience when I have confronted ex-colleague about the same behaviours. Then again, those types are often very good at feigning ignorance 🤷‍♀️

      On the other hand, it isn’t funny if only he is laughing y’know. For something to be genuinely funny, the subject also has to find it funny. Otherwise it’s bullying.

    Listening to a reading of a biography of Martha Stewart. I had no idea she was such an awful person.

    at the same time she herself was a hard worker and mostly honest

    the closest example in fiction would be Flick in the movie Election. Conniving and exploitative and treacherous.

    Came back from lunch and it smells like someone opened some boot polish in here. I think I’ll go work upstairs the rest of the day
