  Harold Holt was an Australian PM who disappeared at sea, presumably drowned.

  We named a pool after him

  the lack of expected noises in a lot was pretty confronting too. it’s not always like the movies with people screaming their guts out, those were the ones that stuck with me

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You had unrestricted access to the internet as a child, didn't you?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  nah too old, from the “the simpsons are corrupting the youth!” generation

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Weekly thread] What is the best movie you watched last week? 23 September⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  jaws is how I remember port is left and starboard is right

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Weekly thread] What is the best movie you watched last week? 23 September⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m a bit late to the party but just watched Don’t Look Up for the first time. Wow! satire done well. a little too well. I missed a lot of the hype and didn’t think it would be memorable but it’s one of the best movies I’ve seen all year

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Capcom President Thinks Game Prices Are 'Too Low' - IGN⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  but maybe 100k people bought the big ones then, now a AAA title can sell millions or tens of millions of copies

  I tend to agree, but then again this is the guy that intentionally has a shit haircut so he can look like some Roman dude

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bernie Sanders Champions 32-Hour Work Week With No Loss in Pay⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  that’s exactly what I work, and my employer has been pushing to remove that in our pay negotiations. they backed down to making it “optional” but it sounds like all new hires wouldn’t be on the 9 day fortnight system.

  sad how things are getting worse not better

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨EBAY Prices⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  ebay is where you go for aliexpress junk that you might find from a local seller instead if you need it sooner. that’s about it. once in a Bluemoon a sale coincides with prices not being jacked and you can get a slight bargain (in the last year I managed to get a Bass at a good price and some bike tyres) but other than that just cheap junk is all it’s good for

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Shrinkflation is out of control⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  its literally impossible to make a burrito in Australia. every wrap is made for ants

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Shrinkflation is out of control⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  you got champagne? I just got lumped onto more projects for no more money

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Shrinkflation is out of control⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  every day I think breatharians are a little less stupid

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Shrinkflation is out of control⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  “our research shows customers want more manageable and convenient portion siz-”

  THE FUCK WE DO

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reddit is a shithole⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  less cookers as a proportion, but far more tankies

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[OC] Unexpected ally 🤷⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  yeah, it crashed into AA fire

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[OC] Unexpected ally 🤷⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  probably a reference to that Pringle’s guy dying in a “plane crash”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The fact that people this stupid exist⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I thought we were all supposed to drop dead in 2 years, the cookers were all banging on about that at one point when they weren’t punching horses and thinking the government used laser weapons on them and not that they got sunburnt from spending the day in the sun “protesting”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The fact that people this stupid exist⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  more likely 100 is the biggliest number they could think of

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I feel the actual inflation⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  lucky. in Australia milk +50%, bread and rice +100%, pasta only about 20%, meats are almost out of reach ($12aud for 12 shitty supermarket sausages about 1kg worth is about as cheap as it gets. fruit and veg has always been volatile and fluctuates but I would say on average 20% more now

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I feel the actual inflation⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  its basically 2 year ago eating out prices to make shit at home these days

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Part of a balanced diet⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  chilli and garlic olives marinated in olive oil are literally food from the gods

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wikihow brutally kills 36 year olds⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  gray hair looks wiser though. wish i could rock a Gandalf do
