Sorry, every Man does own, and knows how to use, a circular saw.

There's a name for people who don't - Women :)
I went to mattress house to get him to chip wood for me. He asked where my dress was.
 
Having lived in Unzud for a decade, some of that on a sheep station, I'm well familiar with the Maories.
Most of them are great people. Always ready for a laugh, particularly the shearing gangs.

As for hangis, nothing you can't do with a slow cook on the Weber.

Yeh, and I remember being to one when I was younger, they dug the Roo and the Pig up, decided it was not done yet, then buried it again, it was a little dusty when it come to chew time.

I had a couple of mumu's (Earth Oven, Hangi, same ****) in PNG and well *** me, they were good for cleaning out the bowells. They parade around with the pigs half carved up on their shoulders for a couple days before they would cook it. And if they didnt do that, they'd bash it half unconsious, yes not dead yet, then hold it onto a flamed fire, while it squealed its arse off burning its hair, bash it a little more then throw it into the mumu, and hours later, Yummo :huh:

Then the next day I would get "O Boss, Me Go Pek Pek Kwiktaim" - Which converts to "*** me Boss, Im about to **** myself, can I run into the forest, squirt out my arse, wipe with a leaf, then get back in your car"

Haha. I had to edit that post three times. I've just come off night shift and flown home and am enjoying an Anderson Valley BA stout. I'm definitely not firing on all cylinders.
Where do you find AV beers in Oz? Please tell me!!!

I'm going to LA in a little over two weeks. First stop will be a BevMo or Whole Foods. I don't expect to remember much of my visit...
 
No. Being offended by the word ****** is an American thing.

****** is a noun in the English language. The word originated as a neutral term referring to black people, as a variation of the Spanish/Portuguese noun *****, a descendant of the Latin adjective niger ("color black")

Your dog is black, tell people it's Portuguese.
 
I am gob smacked now at the racial innuendos in the English language, e.g Black spot on roads, Indian summer, man hole, what the **** is going on, what is wrong with these words, I am racialist for saying I had road accident at a black spot. **** off, I know plenty of blacks and they would laugh at me for using inappropriate language as declared by whoever.

I got it from Mane liquor in Perth. I think they have more than just the BA stout.

They were also doing growler fills of the BA stout about 6 months or so ago. It was amazing.
 
As for me, nothing wrong with calling a dog ****** as in the Dam Busters. Nothing wrong with me calling a black I was playing against in rugby black *******, it is just words, something to upset them with, part of the game.
Drinks afterwards no animosity just friends.
 
Racial jokes are funny. Being a racist piece of **** is not.

It's all well and good to joke around especially with people you know, but I have a feeling some people won't be so impressed if you're calling out ****** when you're in public places.
 
Jim Florentine. The man who says it like it is and rants about stuff that pisses him off weekly in a podcast. If you're offended by bad language and humour, give it a miss. I found this podcast from searching for Metallica interviews, which he does. I'm posting in this thread because it a thread of rants. He does babble on a bit in the beginning for about 4 minutes about **** and the odd podcast supporter but it is still Jim being Jim.

Some of my favourite rants are below:

Above is what pisses him off from going shopping at the supermarket.

https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/*********s-in-the-gym/id427360363?i=163275423&mt=2
If you a gym goer, you will relate to the above I am sure.

https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/anyone-who-tattletales-needs/id427360363?i=241509724&mt=2
Jim rants about people that tattale tales

Others are other about drivers, heckling ticket scalpers at a game, interviews a girl that loves smelling dirty balls, dumb cashier dialogue and a lot more.

Please tell me you meant this. Automagically. I love it.
Yes, automagically is real word and happens every day to everyone. For example, you are automagically spinning around Sol at 67,000 MPH and zooming through space at about 220 K per sec, or 490,000 MPH without even thinking about it.

Automagically. A special word indeed.
 
****** yeast/hops fridge ****** froze my ****** yeast including the two fresh 1469s I chucked in there on Friday.

2nd time it's happened.
 
Damn. I left mine open for a whole day in a hot shed recently but seem to have averted catastrophe. Sounds like you need to run it off an STC.
 
Lazy news reporting to fill up bulletins on a slow news day:

Tragedy in Northern Victoria where two carloads of teenagers collided head-on, four dead and several in intensive care

Meanwhile in Queensland West of Toowoomba a fatality as a car towing a horse float collides with a family sedan leaving an elderly lady dead and two people fighting for their lives

And in Rockhampton a pregnant lady was released from hospital suffering minor bruises after being hit by a cyclist at a pedestrian crossing

In the same State, in Maryborough, a stray Big W shopping trolley has dented a Volvo

And over in Perth, a moth landed on a Toyota Rav 4 leaving a grey streak.....

Not much changes in 10 years. Could've been the news of the day after my flying boat arrived. I was shocked to see no scandals, corruption cases, statewide strikes, riots, abductions and killings, rape scandals, bribery sting op reports, cricket in page 1, nuclear tests, ballistic missile launch tests, defence acquisition scandals, amitabh bacchan's latest return to film...
