How embarrassed would you be if that was your parent?
And, cripes, how much shit would you cop for it at school?
Wasn't that the Nazi's in Melbourne that interrupted the service?
ie the Melbourne Storm board cancelled Welcome to Country because literal Nazis booed it at the Dawn Service?
Ahhhh. Gotcha.
Good luck, Bears!
Others have answered this well already 👍
Curb weight 1634kg
This was the standout spec that might make me consider one.
I've been looking mainly at small hatchbacks/SUVs, and they all seem to weigh in at over 1800kg. And many are over 2000kg. Excluding Aptera...
I made the mistake of RTFA, and I can't understand it.
It says "The NRL has struck an in-principle agreement for a Perth-based Bears team after acquiescing to the Western Australian government’s wish not to be charged a license fee to become the game’s 18th franchise.".
BUT further down the page:
"Negotiations between the NRL and WA government appeared to have ended earlier in the month, with both parties unable to find common ground."
And it also talks about needing the buy-in or approval of the clubs. And that hasn't happened yet either.
AFAICT, the only thing agreed is that nothing is agreed. By anyone.
‘where’s the money coming from’
A:Whatever Labor is spending it on!
‘to spend on what?’
A: We only just announced this! The bribes err, donations oops, strategic direction will be soon available
As the saying goes:
Frack around and find out
For anyone looking for pub and other specials
are your friends. $15 schnitzels, steaks etc can be found. Sometimes you can combine it with a cheaper drink during happy hour.
What will it matter when a small car is now a fucking Dodge RAM?
Holy shit! I'm not alone!
I thought I was in an apocalyptic movie in the Sydney community thread, and I was the last survivor!
I sometimes wonder how things would look today if Shorten won in 2019 and some negative gearing and CGT changes had been made...
Bad, but not as bad?
Well, STI's are pretty stiff and are a harsh ride.
You could try a WRX instead...
Hqppy Easter!
Chocolate eating activated! 😛
If they mentioned the freeze before they actually froze, they would never have been able to freeze from the volume of rollovers/funds going out.
The 'Leaders' Debate and world politics in general
I am genuinely sad that I keep being reminded of:
"The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which"
OK, you know what to do....
Investigators have confirmed the discovery on the NSW south coast but are sharing few other details. The ABC understands several people were at the beach at the time, including a boat close to shore.
Cash washed up on the beach. Get to it!
Missing: sydbot
Police are searching for a missing bot known as sydbot. It was last seen on 17 February 2025 in the Sydney community.
Members had expected weekly discussion threads for the past two weeks, but sydbot did not show at the expected times. The Sydney community hold grave fears for its safety.
sydbot is not considered dangerous, and if you see sydbot, please give him a boot so he resets and goes back to normal and can create weekly discussion threads.
Snicko sacked. Hotspot hopeful of recall.
After a series of controversial performances, Snicko has been sacked.
Hotspot has been waiting in the wings, and is hopeful he we be called up as the replacement.
7 Plus lol
It's hysterical that I can't watch the main cricket channel on 7plus. I just get the red circle going round and round.
But if I switch to the Hindi channel, it's perfect.
Needless to say, with India at 6/73, the Hindi commentators are a little subdued, but still make more sense than Ponting and co.
Penrith or Melbourne?
So, who are you supporting for the Grand Final?
I can't make my mind up.
I don't want Penrith to win again. I hate dynasties, and I think it's better for the game when teams rise and fall. It's one of the benefits of a salary cap.
But I don't like Melbourne, because of their historical rorting of the salary cap, ruining multiple seasons of the NRL. And the whole introduction of wrestling manoeuvres into footy. A lot of their game seems to be based on cheating or exploiting weaknesses in rukes rather than playing in the spirit of the game.
Or do I just barrack for the referee, touchies and video reviewers?
Orcas in Sydney!
Whale Watching Sydney photographer says his phone has ‘not stopped going’ since the sighting
I didn't know they'd been here in 2018..….
BMWs, Mercs spray painted. Strike force set up.
A new strike force has been created to target a number of cases of luxury cars being painted in Sydney's inner suburbs.
I thought maybe someone was marking cars that had been highlighted on Dashcam Owners Australia, but apparently not....
Thank God resources have been allocated for a strike force! One poor victim got the paint off with WD40, but the trauma will last forever!
CrowdStrike impact on aussie.zone?
Sorry if this has been asked/answered previously, but it just struck me that I hadn't really noticed any impacts of CloudStrike on aussie.zone.
Was wondering if it was a non-event, or maybe there are some war stories with heroes deserving medals!
Man and child dead after tragic train accident
Emergency services were called to Carlton Railway Station on Sunday following reports a pram carrying two children had rolled onto the tracks from the platform.
Twins in a pram rolled onto the track at Carlton.
Terrible.

The old 'popup' login box has been removed. I also noticed that the in sub logins where they used to have username/password entry boxes have been removed.

Reports of electric vehicle fires might lead some people to fear the growing numbers of these vehicles will increase fire risk. In fact, replacing petrol and diesel vehicles is likely to reduce it.
I thought that the media was a little over the top with reporting every electric car fire.
Little did I realise just how blown out of proportion it was:
"...electric vehicle battery fires are rare. Indeed, the available data indicate the fire risk is between 20 and 80 times greater for petrol and diesel vehicles. "

Great little piece that hits a surprising range of emotions
Opposition climate and energy spokesperson had pointed to SMRs as a solution to Australia’s energy needs, but experts raise questions over price tag
So, it appears the first SMR project in the US was scrapped due to rising costs.
An Aussie SMR would take 10-15 years before even being online and we'd be the guinea pigs.
Perhaps it's time to pivot to technology already available and that can be implemented in the short term?
