Playing spontaneous hacky sack with a rapidly growing group of Viet kids at midnight in the streets of Hanoi, using one of these - easily goes down as one of my favourite life memories! There was an innocence to it that I don't think exists in Australia anymore. I'm scared to talk to a kid these days, for fear of being vilified a pedo :/

I guess the trade off / sad reality is that a lot of these kids probably do get taken advantage of :(

I had a similar experience in NZ playing frisbee at this tiny primary school in the middle of nowhere. Was good fun, till I threw my frisbee onto the roof.

People joked about the pedo thing, but there were teachers around and they didnt seem to mind the kids playing with random tourists.

This!!

I play this at my missus front yard and people walk pass thinking we're weird...

Miss the days where I used to meet up after primary school and ride bikes with friends around the suburb since we were all from primary school.

I feel bad driving to so many places now, used to ride so much bike.

mind you, think I used to eat a larger dinner and breakfast as a kid/teen.

nostalgia... but true freedom was turning 18

There is so much truth in this post it's not even funny

what is your current phone, and why change of heart?

Samsung Galaxy Nexus Black 16GB

It's still going strong. Just time for an upgrade, the Galaxy Nexus is a few years old now so want something fresh to make me smile at the pretty shiny.

Oh yeah, you know how I said I ordered the Hero 3+ from DWI for $80 cheaper than Teds Camera Store had it (RRP)... DWI took over a week to let me know that it was going to be delayed 1-2 weeks... I cancelled the order and will go into JB Hifi at lunch and try to bargain them down a bit. Stupid DWI. Their website still says Ships within 1-2 days.

    • I would not be surprised if you are the only person on earth that has the interest/desire to do that lol.  The Haltech base map is a really good starting point, the car will fire easily and drive very well, even on mild boost levels. To me, following your advice sounds like some sort of ancient Chinese water torcher lol (this is not an insult Josh, never change <3)
    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new
