Wtf how do you boil water to kill ants

Stovetop. Basically 120V 15A circuits don't get them as much power as our 230V 10A circuits (1750W vs 2200W), so it takes substantially longer to boil (it's not directly a linear relationship). Thus electric kettles are available, but much less popular than stovetop ones.

They also just simply boil water for drinks far less, so a kettle gets far less use all-round. Most people will just boil a pot of water, or heat water in a microwave, because it's so rare that they don't have dedicated equipment for the task.

Also they're seppos.

Chances are good you went to a school I was at prior. Sure there's woulda been a lot of dicks etched into tables.

my ecologies tutor sent an e-mail saying he apologises for being culturally insensitive about indigenous stuff but for the life of me i can't figure out what he said wrong. I think he may have said "aboriginal" instead of "aboriginal people"

Probably pre-emptively covering for something he doesn't know he said, just incase someone in future decides something else is naughty to say.

My driving instructor when I was a teen would add $2 onto the lesson fee for everytime you didn't engage the handbrake button and made it noisy.

My guess is he got really sick of hearing it all day long but I never make a noise with it to this day.

moot was pretty widely used by us whities in SEQ around that time. Never knew the origins of it though.

Psuedo always worked better for me for cold/flu symptoms, still hate having to tell them i want the real stuff and not the placebo PE version. Please check my ID, i haven't bought a pack for a year, i'm not going to turn it into speed. And codeine makes me feel sick.

Pushing the button when engaging wears out the handbrake faster.

No it doesn't, it's just pulling the ratchet stop back when you're setting the brake.

Likely the interfacing components are coated in a baked on anti-seize, so it's not even really a wearing interface at all.

nah it doesnt.


my dad would argue that engaging the brake without using the button was better. his argument was that the ratchet allows you to yank it on further than you need, stretching the brake cables and allowing you to get it one or two notches deeper into the ratchet which in turn could make it more difficult to disengage as a result of the higher tension.

hes likely correct on several points but lol at ever owning a car that will last long enough to require the hand brake cables be replaced.

My 180SX had 420,000kms on it (nice) when I sold it and I did not replace the brake cables or even adjust them and I used that thing a lot (because thats what 180s are for)


also today I learned there is a band called Nicholas Cage Fighter.

I had a piriformis injury in the form of 'runners bum' it sucked but strengthening the hips worked well to sort it out.
I've had runners knee, runners bum and runners trots that have necessitated vaulting fences in lieu of finding an actual toilet

Pressure cookers are amazing. Thoroughly recommend checking out a risotto. I have done a mushroom version, chicken, and a goats cheese and pesto version that have all turned out great. Kenji does like a lot of salt in his food though.

you are correct, the frets are angled. It is a multi scale guitar.
