Non Footy Chat Thread II

I've also been getting that one. You google "How to remove rancid pubes and arse hair" half a dozen times and it is inevitable.

I've always used the 'can of beans and a lighter' method. Of course, it's advisable to consume the beans.

Ping weatherman @Suitman . The lass on the ABC said today that the harbour that these whales are stick in does not have normal 6 hour tides and has "barometric tides" and the next high tide is in 3 days. What is this trickery ?

Mate, tbh, I have no idea. I'll inform you on anything weather related but tides? I have no f**king clue about them.
Sorry.
Tbh, I do read stuff, but have never ever heard of this phenomenon.

 

[Twizzle]

Barometric tides go up and down with the barometric pressure and can be solar affected ie: sun heats the water up and it expands, hence rises

generally applies to a lake and I believe most of the whales are in a lake that connects to the ocean at high tide and is isolated off at low tide

Thanks. Fascinating read.

I'll never be able to get my head around the fact that a moon can make our oceans move up and down 4 times a day. I mean, wtf?

Moon and Sun. And both the Earth and Moon move relative to each other and the Sun, and the Earth's angle of incidence changes over seasons. This now sounds like a Midnight Oil album. Different I'm at the limits of my scientific knowledge on this point (if you hadn't guessed)

Thanks. Fascinating read.

I'm still gazing at the first diagram.

Should we start a Countdown to Daylight Savings thread? So much time to prepare for and enjoy sunset. Maybe it's insensitive with all the merkins here living in Queensland.

I'm onboard with this. I'll get to see the sunset for an hour longer than you southern boys.

Have you moved to Queensland? I was gonna ask you to start it.
