  4. RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
  5. I want a conveyor toaster for unnecessary efficiency
  6. http://m.oo.com.au/Prinetti-Stainless-Steel-2-Sli_P226176.cfm Actually I got that as a gift and guessed it was worth $50, but eBay search says the person probably paid $100+ for it. That link above has it for quite cheap. Anyway, it toasts bread well and that's mostly what I use it for.
  7. That a fancy name for Yering Station?
  8. Where's your wedding Simon?
  9. My $50 toaster has a hot plate for cooking eggs, beat that
  10. I don't have any reception issues with Optus Though I have Telstra for internet You can get cheap movie tickets wih Optus too
  11. subtle
  12. Motorsport is the one time you need to be fair to the wife because it's costly as shit and a lot of time not spent with her... Which is why so many tarmac/club rally navigators are wife of the driver
  13. I find any and all fitness gadgets redundant. They are usually glorified pedometers and technology for the sake of technology. Okay, so it can sync your activity with your phone and tablet and you're all connected and shit - that's cool that it can do that - but so what? What's the end result here and does it really help you to achieve your goals over and above say, a $2 stopwatch or straight out dieting/exercising. I feel like most people who buy these things think that it will help them to exercise more or give them an advantage when doing so. Instead you end up with people saying I did 20,000 steps today (like anyone else with an office job who runs errands). It's just another way out of good old fashioned hard work, not unlike buying a Wii Fit or some ab pro that does the sit-ups for you. It's unbelievable how much these little things have taken off and all the companies jumping on board for the ride - probably the best example of trending I've seen in a long time, given only a few years ago we had wristwatch heart rate monitors (which *can* actually be useful during exercise) and garmin gps trackers and hardly anyone wanted a bar of that. Remember when those stupid power balance bands came out and everyone wanted the "cheap" / easy competitive advantage? Lulz were had. I think that gadgetry *may* have it's place with the elite athlete and coach looking for proper biofeedback, but for the average person going for runs and heading to the gym it's a giant wank. Whatever does it for you though - if it actually makes you exercise then more power to you, but you shouldn't need a wristband to make you want to do that - if you do then the motivation simply won't last. If nothing else you've got a wrist worn alarm clock that the CIA can track you with.
  14. I...I'm a movie?
  15. Didn't know they came in wagon form? Doesn't look too bad and very good value at that price point. Good competition for Subaru's quick wagons and the Audi soccer mums on steroids!
  16. I too dream of a Mazda 6!
  17. Zomg we should totally go there together
  18. Seeing Bill Burr tomorrow night...cannot wait!
  19. Saying <The Earth> Doing
  20. Unfortunately
  21. Nope, that was my security guard...72 year old man got too close to the R
  22. Took it off and drove into inspection bay to show that it can be driven, albeit very loudly. Many looks from people before we took it off and even more looks when we started it up lol
  23. You guys if Chris can give me a date to bring it down - can you go ask him now lol?
  24. Yep I said it has a bad engine knock and I'm taking it to my mechanic before driving it on the road, which is true. He just confirmed the chassis and engine numbers (spent ages trying to read the RB26 engine number, lulz were had), then we swapped the numberplates over and nek minut registered.
  25. I find it a little scary that your life can be messed with, for better or worse, simply because of what a computer screen displays...with very difficult or non-existent avenues for getting it changed. It's not corruption proof, but it's fairly repeal proof. Reminds me of that movie The Net.
