Cunts that go to an album launch/gig because they heard of it in JJJ and so they go to it and don’t get into it and just suck the energy out of the room because like 3/4 of them are eventers.

Still on the eggs thing, our supermarket sources their eggs locally.
When winter hit the local farms chickens stopped laying so the eggs were being sourced from down Port Macquarie way.
That farm shut down overnight about a week ago.
The supermarket manager got in contact with the local farm again who told him that they’ve sold all of their chickens and are no longer in business.
Cue an emergency shipment of Black and Gold cage eggs that were gone within a day.
I know bird flu has played a big part in the shortage but it appears farmers are selling up and leaving the market to avoid losing their flock.
I can’t see the problem getting better any time soon.
Daycare generally doesnt encourage kids to bring in toys, but its a comfort thing. But what kind of parent sees their kid bring home a random soft toy and thinks, oh lets keep that, rather than the obvious alternative of bringing it back.
Its not the done thing mate.
The same kind of parent that insists that they’re their kid’s shoes, despite the fact that your kid’s name is written on them in fat black marker pen.

My daughter has brought back a myriad of things, but they’ve always been small knickknacks she’s kept in her pockets, or stuff that’s been mistakenly left in her bag, like lunch boxes etc. What shits me the most, is the preschool has it’s own hats you need to purchase and wear. First one last 3 weeks, before it was “lost.” We waited a few weeks for it to return and nothing. Got her another one and exact same thing. The hat was clearly labelled with a bright pink iron-on label with my daughter’s name both times. Both times the pre-school sent out messages to chase people out, nothing. We’ve now just gotten her a completely different hat from home. I’m not paying $20 each time for some parents to get a free gift

Get use to that - Primary school only gets worse for lost jumpers and hats etc - you could have their name written in flashing neon and that stuff still aint finding its way home once they lose it

My littlest school jumper has a white colour section around the collar, I’ve written his name in gold permanent marker on the outside so you can see while it’s being worn. .
If another kid had it on I could just walk up and rip it off them.

people who insist on having a conversation on their phone in the lift… Even if its not on speaker, you’ve got the volume turned up super loud so we can all hear it.
I get that you are the most important person in the building but next time, just finish the call and then get the next elevator

I was in the lift at work once, the guy in front of me says “hi, how are you going?” and I replied along the lines of good thanks, how are you. No response… turns out he had an earpiece in and was talking to his mate on the phone.

Try farting next time. That’ll shut them up.

People who have only one speaking volume that have personal conversations in the office.
People. (That’s it, that’s all I got).

And really, that’s all you need!
First time I’ve had to change a tyre on this car. Feels like they’ve tried to make it as hard. The jack point is recessed into the side skirt and has a plastic bar running across it - basically guaranteeing you’re going to deform the skirt. Then the jack handle is this weird folding thing where the upper lever section is a thin u channel attached to the main section via a pivot point. The whole thing made it about 10 times harder than it needed to be.
Not sure how big your car boot is but I recommend investing in an electric hydraulic jack and a rattle gun.
You can buy a set that contains both and they generally have an inflator as well.
Electric Jack? That’s new!
But I’d end up carrying the electric stuff, plus the scissor jack and a tyre iron …
Got an impact driver and little compressor (Aldi job) that is surprisingly good. Thought I’d look for a some attachment for a drill or the driver on the jack.
Main issue is the jack point. It just seems really odd and awkward.
Depending on which one you get you either plug it into your cigarette lighter or connect it direct to your battery.
People still leaving bottles of water etc in their bags as they go through customs, slowing the whole process.
