Somehow I don't think he was sticking a hedgehog up his bum. From the article it is pretty obvious what he was doing. How many indecent acts are there anyway?

 

 

Oh come now @Rikkitic, why so prickly?

I think it's more a question of how many can you perform on yourself. And since it was self inflicted, who cares?

I guess rule 34 applies here as well.

A burger place is opening at the end of the st. There is a small sign with its name on it, otherwise its completely empty after the prior tenant vacated it. There is nothing in there.

 

 

 

It has 15 x 5 star reviews talking about the food and service.

 

 

 

There are photos and it says its open right now. It most certainly Isnt

The fact that I was lent a faulty book by the library.  It has run out of pages.  There is no more book.

Awanui Labs in Newtown sign on door, Closed Today so go to the hospital lab, every chair full and no sign of movement after ten minute wait. Drive to Kilbirnie lab, people piled outside the doors and about 20 people waiting inside in a warm atmosphere likely full of disease and thick enough to eat with a spoon. Am thinking yuk and stood outside.

 

After an hour waiting finally got the bloods and asked the nurse why the chaos. She replied that they can’t get enough staff or trainees and when they do get them trained up, they leave because the pay is so low they can’t make ends meet. What an awful situation.

Every time I find something I convince myself is a bargain on Trade Me, its pick up only about 400km away.

The sheer number of applications my son has sent out for entry level positions in or adjacent to the industry he has just graduated into. 

 

Poor kid is willing to do anything and doesn't even get replies. It's pretty dire out there. 

 

He was saying that if he had the money to go to Australia and set himself up, he could probably get a job in his preferred field within a couple of weeks. I can see why people jump the pond, never to return.

That is why it is a bargain, because if they would ship then it would have been taken already. RUC now makes those pickups not worthwhile for me, but before that I would go on trips to Tauranga and Hamilton a lot to get random things.

People can have opinions about things they are not directly affected by. I don't see a problem with that.

People who don't directly use that service have to help elderly relatives who do still cling onto that service and help them deal with the inadequate useless customer service that the provider offers for their faulty product.

 

I have to ensure I am available by phone for when the technician arrives and when they no show, it has disrupted me for no outcome.

I am really fed up with all the fake YouTube clickbait videos. Is there no way to weed these out? I don't even bother on clicking on anything anymore.

Then you don't fit the description of my annoyance. 

 

I am not sure the issue with Sky's Satelitte service right now falls entirely under my interpretation of 'their faulty product' though.
