    Elections coming up here too. It's a real difficult decision for the people who only vote for the two major parties. Most of them are likely to vote Liberal, but Liberal have stated they're not going to remove the asbestos that people are just starting to realise are in the old Internet cables. Labor (currently in government) better win because they're the for the working people compared to Liberal being more for the employers, and so will want to safely remove the asbestos for the health of the employees. That's essentially the biggest difference between the two parties this election. Elections here are really boring, and very different to US elections.

    Well, it was nice knowing you. Well then, try getting a fork ticket and an MR licence. I can basically guarantee you'll get a job within 6 months.
  3. I have 1 point, for being too sexual in nature in the relationship advice thread, which I haven't been on in too long.

    Whoops. Got my 10,000mAh power bank today, and it didn't come with instructions. I charged it up and then tried charging my phone, nothing. I tried a different cable (it came with one) and still no dice. Tried both cables in my computer, they work fine. I sent them an email saying it doesn't work. I've just figured out that pressing the power button only displays the charge state, you have to hold it to turn it on/off. Now I need to wait for a response and apologise. There's 2. Metro 2033 and Metro Last Light.

    I got a card from the post office, letting me know that a parcel I ordered arrived. Wasn't what I hoped it was, which is a power bank that's almost a month late. Instead it was a DisplayPort to HDMI cable. Plug it into one of my new monitors to find that the display doesn't take up the whole screen. Had to return both the new monitors for replacements. They ended up having cheaper ones in stock so I got Metro Last Light with the difference. Came with a flashlight and a bonus weapon. Flashlight is pretty crappy, it sometimes doesn't turn on. Should be an interesting game, rated R18+ for sexual violence, so I'm curious as to what that means.

    Aquaplaned my car on a roundabout last night, managed to avoid crashing into anything. Also got my Pebble watch the other day. It. Is. Awesome. Combined with Tasker, I could basically get it to do anything.

    Dammit, didn't get any of the jobs I've applied for. Time to try again tomorrow. For now though, I sit here drinking and wondering why one thing I ordered is over a week late, and why the other thing doesn't show up with Aust Post, even though I have the tracking number.

    So I've dropped out of uni for a while. Currently looking for full-time employment, I've found two suitable choices, and then remembered about this thing called a resume I'm supposed to write up to hand in. I'm not good with them so I have to get someone to help me with writing one.

    So on Saturday I managed to sleep in 3 hours for work, and only started 2 hours 20 minutes late. I didn't even get yelled at, not even by a customer. However, I'm never going to do that again, had to go all-out to get everything I could deliver to places before they shut up shop. Didn't even get breakfast till 3pm. Your ex-wife's not bad either. :wink:

    So I'm sitting here on an almost flat phone because I struggle to sleep when not at home while my girlfriend has spent most of the day asleep and is still worn out enough to be out cold faster than I could check to see if her phone was charging for her. Yeah,I definitely could have worded it better. Not all religions think this way, nor do all people following religions that view contraception as a sin follow such beliefs. However I am much more likely to find that people with no religious belief are having sex with something to prevent pregnancies.

    I never said we were dying out a whole. Thankfully the religious are really well designed to prevent that ("be fruitful and multiply", condoms/the pill/pulling out is the devil's way to ruin society).

    Today was interesting. I was working a a massive huntsman decides to climb down in front of me while I was driving. So I punched the thing. He died immediately, and unfortunately won't be able to tell the other spiders to leave me alone. Almost as good as my sociology professor claiming rape was justified because it was nature's way of ensuring human survival. :roll: From a purely evolutionary point of view, he's correct.

    Telstra used to be a government owned business, like NBN Co. is now. However, Liberal, like they always do, sold them to have the national debt look better on paper, not caring about the repercussions. If their plans for the NBN go through the same thing will happen again. Stev, I need to do the same. I should really seek help for uni, and my apathy.

    So today it is my birthday, I'm now 21. Which doesn't mean much here, but it's still treated as the big birthday. So far I've gotten a new phone, over a grand, some tools, an RC helicopter, an engraved flask, some DVDs, but only 2 birthday texts. ;_; On a side note, I have an exam tomorrow, my computer is broke, and I am unable to log on to my uni account. Which is annoying as it means I cannot access anything to help me.

    This is amaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazing. I'm staying at some relatives' house for a few weeks. The internet here is so fast. I can download updates for my PS3, update Xubuntu, update Steam games, and still play online games with less lag than on a good day at home. Work tomorrow morning, family dinner tomorrow night, and then I have Sunday free to check out this cool thing that everyone keeps talking about. YouToob, iTube, something like that. It sounds really awesome.

    Get a different provider, Elder's Insurance will give you a quote in <30 seconds. The RTA was technically right, if you want to get 6 months rego you have to do it online or over the phone.

    This doesn't seem like the kind of game which would be improved by story telling. Then again, I'm fairly early in the game. I just really enjoy farming souls at this one area now that I can kill everything in one hit.

    $7 for a beer is normal here. It sucks. The protect the children mob think that making alcohol more expensive will make it less like adults will drink too much, and kids won't bother with alcohol. Politicians just see a great source of revenue for them.

    So StarBound is now available for preorder. I don't get paid till Wednesday, and so it's really bumming out my mood. Well sunshine, you're currently still in Kansas. Once you're out of school you better [bleep]ing deal with the flying monkeys. yo i totally feel like this is adrenal too, i still regularly talk to him though so.... Tell that lovable fool I want his mobile number.

    Moderately drunk. Open bar and I go together well. It was for my grandmother's 80th birthday. There was a wall which had things that happened in 1933, and people born in that year too. Can't believe Gene Wilder (played the original Willy Wonka, and was also in Blazing Saddles as The Waco Kid) was born in the same year as her.
