Petbarn is an absolute rip-off.
This cat fountain I want is more than fucking double the other shop near place.
Fuckers.

Show her how to use it, like bend down and drink a bit from it. Cats like to drink from a source of water they know is safe, and you drinking from it tells her it’s safe.
It’s silly to us, but those fluffy chaos agents are driven by instinct and catnip
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 1 week ago
I saw her take a drink from it earlier but I’m not above a demo lol

My daughter went to the movies last night with her boyfriend and the police were called because there was an unruly patron.
Question of the day: When were the police called during a innocuous activity you happened to spectate?
MeanElevator@aussie.zone 1 week ago
What kind of dropkick gets cops called on them at the movies. Seriously.
I’ve seen cops called to a picnic at a local park cause apparently there were too many people (there wasn’t) and a local felt threatened (they weren’t).
Before you ask, the picnic patrons were Muslim which apparently sparked fear in poor old Betsy.

Ah the classic “they’re of a different religion/colour so they must be up to no good! I swear I’m not racist!” argument 🙄🙄🙄
SaneMartigan@aussie.zone 1 week ago
I reckon I’ve only seen the police called for occous activity.

In the covid Christmas where you weren’t allowed to gather in homes, we set up a table on the nature strip of my mums unit, she’s the front unit in a block of 3. Her neighbour from unit 3 called the cops who came and joined us for a bit, even put on a paper hat from the cracker!

Wow, the Toy Story 5 crew getn pretty hectic. Jk, but seriously what movie were they seeing?

shoplifting
because a kid taking chocolate bars is gonna hurt the company
StudChud@aussie.zone 1 week ago
No one shoplifts. They only take back from the megacorpos what the common people are owed.
I’ve seen people sneak pads and tampons, food, whatever. But I didn’t see shit. Megacorpos can eat the loss, their executives are making more in a month than any shoplifter does in a year, so fuck those cunts.
I’ve knicked a set of four mugs from Woolies back in 2012, still have them lol. #yolo

Oh I have plenty, due to the alley below my balcony being a hot spot for meth-induced shenanigans.
Partner and I were partaking in the devil’s lettuce one evening, and we heard a woman pass through the alley multiple times. She was, I think, in the throes of some cptsd flashback combined with meth, so was losing her shit at her abusers. No one else was down there.
Partner and I were just like “damn, she needs some serious health help”. I think one of my neighbours called the police though. They rock up, and try calmly (I was surprised) de-escalating, but she wasn’t having it. She called them “fucking pigs” who “only care about rich people” “Youse don’t give a FUCKING SHIT about people like me ya rapists!” “Youse beat your wives up every night ya cunts!”
I should have kept quiet, but I yelled from the privacy of my balcony “yeah girl you tell them pigs!” 😂 Partner just put his head in his hand and I heard the lady scream “SEE SEE EVERYONE HATES YOU DOGS!”
I keep quiet now, but shit that was funny. I haven’t heard her in months now (she was a regular alley screamer), so I really hope she got the help she needs
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 week ago
the thing is who can we call when people need help? There is no hot line for social work and what if the person is dangerous?
so it’s a terrible dilemma
solution, we need a social work hot line for call outs and someone to keep the social worker safe
we need to decriminalise drugs too
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 1 week ago
Honestly. That’s pretty funny. But I feel bad for laughing lol

My husband and I were eating at macca’s one night, it was community day or some shit and there was a young cop wrapping burgers who looked bored as until some drunk walking in asking for a “fucking slurpee”. The drunk was now surrounded by the bored young cop and some mates and escorted out of the fine establishment. Husband and I continued eating, chuffed we got a show as well.

Apparently insomnia makes me the local purveyor of Sandstorm bugs. Ok I guess.

Odyssey was a pretty spectacular movie. Old school close shots and animatronics over green screen. Didn’t IMAX but did go to the 70mm film theatre. Even got a little spiel from the projectionist and cyclops eye lollies as a freebie. It was three hours but there just so much story it didn’t drag. Slow start but it needed it. Five out of five greek nymphs.

It didn’t feel long at all. I went to the Chadstone IMAX for the first time. I was impressed with the amount of elbow room compared to the museum.
The film of course was fantastic and epic.

really excited to go asap, will be going to the Sun Cinema in Yarraville, not imax but 70 mm
imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone 1 week ago
That’s where I went! It was great. The film just has amazing colour depth. They are showing a normal digital version too so double check before you vuy
