What about cheese in a jar mixed with vegemite ?

It has promise. I'd have to give it a go before replying with a balanced review.

A very limited edition I'd say.

They tried sneaking it on us five years ago. It was f**king awful.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Hmm. SBW has been given permission to tape over betting logos on his Toronto jumper based on religious grounds. Some merkins are outraged that Falou was not given similar latitude.


Are we comparing apples with apples here ?

Well just like gambling, the things on Folau's list are still illegal in parts of the world. Are we cool with disrespecting their cultures now?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Lamingtons.....if only there were non boomers on here that knew what they were.

You mean the flavour of Smiths chips?

I had some cheese and vegemite shapes this afternoon. I'm getting some more tomorrow.

I was thinking the same tbing reading all this excoe ti am eating a bag of chipa

Not in any sense. It should be more about the time than the food.

Lamingtons is the most overated cake ever. A bit of sponge dipped in a very thin layer of chocolate and flooded with coconut flakes?
I bet Strider loves a Lamington

You could say the same about pies. A bit of meat soaked in gravy dropped in dough.

You wash your f**king mouth out talking shit about lamingtons on Invasion Day!

Talking shit about lamingtons is heresy, unless they were bought from Coles or Woolies.

After posting that, my wife mentioned lamingtons and I was about to f**k off to IGA to get some when she said they'd probably be disappointing from a supermarket. But how bad do you have to be to get lamingtons wrong?

Somebody died today eating lamingtons FFS !

 

[Poupou Escobar]

She certainly wins Australia Day.

By that logic every public figure triggers someone or other. If that's the case then what's the big deal with being triggered? Public figures that deign to tell the rest of us how we should live deserve everything they get. Calling people triggered is just an attempt to shut down any criticism.

Well done for taking the vegemite challenge, congratulations you have now reached level 5. Please proceed to the confectionery aisle.

Yuck.

 

[Bandwagon]

Solid argument

What? You just made up some shit that you can't possibly know to be true.

Well if that's the case I don't see it working out too well for the side of the conflict with no money, no electoral power and no life experience.

I think it's been one point in the divide for years, so it's not just today's school kids, it's generational shift. and we are seeing that.

If she has no power, what is she doing speaking at the UN and the like? Why are people so keen to tear her down?

KETO LAMINGTONS

An Australian institution – the Lamington! These Keto Lamingtons use a deliciously moist sponge and a homemade strawberry chia seed jam to create the perfect Australian treat. With a little bit of effort, your friends and family won’t even know these are Keto lamingtons.

I certainly do know it to be true, I just can't prove it. But since this isn't a criminal trial I don't need to prove it. I will instead leave it in the hands of science and consider it valid until it is disproven.

I think it's been one point in the divide for years, so it's not just today's school kids, it's generational shift. and we are seeing that.

It's not a new thing. The boomers hated their parents as well. What's new here is that while the boomers and preceding generations vastly outnumbered older generations, modern youth do not.

If she has no power, what is she doing speaking at the UN and the like? Why are people so keen to tear her down?

Useful idiots don't need power to have a public profile. Earnest-schoolgirl-with-autism is a symbol that her handlers hoped would be above criticism specifically because of her powerlessness.

What has science got to do with.........

She's being used in the sense that she is being held up for ridicule, and the people exposing her to this are using her vulnerability to score political points.

.............that?

It doesn't require disproving.

No it's not new, power shifts, generations die in a generally chronological order. .

It's as if for some reason she is devoid of the capability to have her own mind, and form her own opinions.

Which is all very convenient hey?
