in the 90s and early 2000s it was constantly used as a slur in my area and although i don't hear it used much these days still my first association is racist remark when i do hear it.

roadside pissing is one i am always paranoid cops gonna grab me for someday. my weak rear end bladder has me peeing every 90 mins or so and after a scary middle of nowhere servo bathroom experience a decade+ ago i feel safer peeing on the side of the road rather than stopping at a servo. atleast it forces me to take breaks when i am long distance driving so there's that.

My dads trick was to crouch or lie down near the tyre of the car and stealthpiss in the gutter or a drain. I think he figured it out after an unceremonious public urination arrest. Dads rock.

mid career Kanye was a ride and a half. I liked when he followed his sad lonely electronic phase with a style that only could’ve described as hedonistic excess made audio. Hip Hop to listen to in a castle. Awesome poo poo, shame what happened to his brain.

Advice please ausgoons. As my career winds along I'm finding it harder and harder to concentrate on some aspects of my job particularly the paperwork side which as a teacher is at least 60% of my workload. I find it far more enjoyable to be doing something hands on which was a problem when I was cooking full time and doing uni because my hands on quota was met and the paperwork and concentrating poo poo wasn't too much of a burden. I don't want to self diagnose but think theres probably something the medical world could do to help out and would like to explore options.

I know a couple of people in here take prescribed dex or ritilan to help them function day to day but I wonder who you'd broach that sort of poo poo with a doctor cause something needs to change and preferably sooner rather than later. Thanks in advance!

I’ve known people with prescriptions and they hated boring poo poo. Your experience will obviously be different. What sort of teacher are you? Could you teach younger classes with less paper work, or another lateral move?

remember when holden and ford both continued to produce full size sedans in an era when the market was more interested in buying SUVs and they both continued doing this for years and years and then failed?

Funny you say that, its only a couple streets from there. Barrel One coffee Roasters in brooky. Had a grouse pastrami sandwich from there that was "an homage to .... Deli in New York" that apparently must do a similar sandwich.

Tons of pastrami, some Dijon mustard, seeded mustard, dill and pickles. 12/10
Also had an almond croissant with apricot jam and a coffee.
Great spot, but I've found a place near my new house that has won several gold medals at the fine food thingo for their coffee

Sounds legit I’ll check it out next time I’m unfortunate enough to be in Brookvale. Japes aside the area is getting pretty dang nice. Apart from that playground that is on top of the cemetery that’s frightening.
