Stay unburnt, you guys.

The photo I posted eariler of the view from my friends house was from a couple of kids smoking weed apparently. That was 12 hours ago, and now they are all evacuated 200km away on one of the two routes from their community. Power is out so not even able to check on cameras if house is ok. (That was one fantastic thing I had privledge of in the last few cyclones, cameras on my home on the beach and over the Hastings workshops to see the oncomonig floods inland.

I don't know man everytime I go to the gym here there are like two huge dudes with raging high and tights snorting Nitro-tech off of each other's rock hard abs.

Stay safe, Aus goons. :ohdear:

Helped a friend out with his WRX - throttle cable frayed on it and jammed. Put a new OEM cable in... while routing it, noticed the fuel lines to and from the fuel filter (from the firewall to the filter, and filter to the firewall) looked really rotten, and had crappy worm clamps on them. Told him "uh, we really should replace those soon".

It wound up with 4 lawn sprinklers spraying gas when we started it (each end of both hoses) - I'm sure my commenting didn't help, but we did have to snake the cable around them, which meant bumping them a bit. :v: They'd been replaced before (for him, but not by him), but the fuckwit doing the work used transmission cooler hose. :argh: One of the clamps also fell off (rusted) when I touched it when replacing them. It has proper EFI hose and EFI hose clamps on it now. 30 minute job turned into an hour and a half (including a trip to Advance for hose and clamps), none of those fuckers wanted to break free. And the bugeye WRX bay is kinda cramped compared to Brokeback's.

See you guys in the next decade!

I used to spit on the cherry to make sure it was out, squeeze it out on the ground, smash it with my foot, and the butt in my pocket.

loving drat. My fiance's mom works with a woman my fiance's age, whom she introduced when my fiance was diagnosed because this girl was stage 1 or 2 and had a double mastectomy a couple of years ago and figured she could help my fiance through things.


Well now it looks like my fiance's going to be helping her through things, because even though she had a double mastectomy, it metastasized undetected. She sent my fiance a message this morning that she went to the hospital after having a 5 day migraine and when nothing helped, they gave her a CT scan and "her brain was lit up like a Christmas tree." At least my fiance was stage 4 from day one of her diagnosis, so we know she'll never be completely cured and she'll always be fighting it. We can't imagine having a body-altering surgery and thinking you made it only to find out a couple of years down the line that they didn't catch it in time. :smith:



May 2020 be better than 2019 indeed.

Jesus. I'm afraid I'd be a quivering lump of useless if my wife or kid came up with cancer. Watching my father-in-law die of it was plenty bad, thanks. I definitely get the thinking you're clear and it coming back, though - that's what happened to my FIL, though without having to remove any body parts, at least. Still one hell of a blow, after you think you've beat the bitch.

edit: Have a better 2020, y'all, even if your 2019 was pretty good.

You don't need style when you've got strength!


Last decade has overall been very good to me. Cars, houses, wife and generally the healthiest 10 year stretch I've had. Ended with a bit of a poo poo show but over the bad and recovering.

I'd post this in half an hour but I have chicken stock that needs to make it's way to the fridge and a half of an imperial stout that needs finishing before I crawl into the sack at 12:01.
