Nobody will be able to afford them because of the cost of living, rent, low wages, no hope of buying their own home, but, yeah this is an important priority!

    This is hysterical!

    You can get lost, and then your friends need to form a search party for you.

    I'm wondering if the Emergency Services will need to be called?

    You give me a coffee shop with big ass sofas and a piano and chess sets and wifi and I’ll gladly pay $5 a cup to hang out. I’ll probably end up spending another $20 while I’m there. But the coffee alone just ain’t worth it.

    I agree with Chandler. I heard Central Perk is cool.

    Nobody uses their garage for cars anymore.

    The garage is for storage of all the useless stuff they've bought and didn't use past the first week.

    They also like parking their RAM trucks and 4WDs on their front lawn to show their offroading capabilities and small penis size. But mostly just to show off their cars/trucks etc.

    The US has never fully recognised the ICC; it never was passed in Congress/Senate, and under George W Bush formally withdrew in 2002.

    The US also passed in 2002 an act that enables the President to use any and all means possible to go get any US military personnel that were charged and held by the ICC.

    Interesting fact: The seven countries that voted against the treaty establishing the ICC were Iraq, Israel, Libya, China, Qatar, Yemen, and the United States. Make of that what you will.

    Can Australians trust the labels on the food they buy?

    First of a two part investigation.

    I'm expecting major shenanigans to be uncovered.

    Airing tonight on our ABC at 8:30pm eastern, and will be available via iView after.

    Do yourself a favour, and catch Media Watch after it. You'll find out what media BS you've been caught out believing!

     

    idk, I kinda expected a bot to be machine like, regular, predictable and couldn't be stopped and would go on forever.

    You know, like the Terminator.

    But sydbot hasn't posted anything for 2 months.

    Not sure it matters, but I'd like to know that sydbot is safe and happy.

    It's absolutely pissing down here right now, and I noticed this little fella sitting on a ledge outside a window trying to get out of the rain.

    I've never seen any bird try and shelter there before, but am doing my best to not disturb him.

    Hope the eaves and ledge give him some protection and he can stay safe.

    Update: The rain has stopped, and my little friendly shadow has gone. All the birds are going mental! The cockies sound furious!

    Victoria is already in a state of disaster, and today looks like being a really bad day for fires in Sydney, so thought I would link a couple of key sites I use:
