What are you doing in my home town, bru?

Selling frozen chips and pre-made cakes to pubs, takeaways, etc.

And freezing my arse off (plus it is raining and quite windy). How can people enjoy this weather (and colder).

 

[Jason Maher]

Because not everyone is a soft pussy like you.

 

[afinalsin666]

Chuck on a jumper and beanie and gloves and you're warm. Get naked in the heat and you're still hot. f**k that noise.

 

[Bazal]

Isn't JM a Brisderper? He's talking about cold. 2 degrees not 20 bro

You do the trip often? I sense beers in our future if the answer is yes.

In superhero gender bend, Marvel unveils Thor as a woman
Tue Jul 15, 2014

Comic book superhero character Thor, who first appeared in 1962 and is based on the Norse hammer-wielding god, will now be a woman, publisher Marvel Comics said on Tuesday.

I just don't get it. Why distort 50 years of history in the name of new readership? I highly doubt Thor becoming a woman is going to bring new female readers into the comic book scene...

Once every 2 months. So due back in September.

And an ex-Steelers fan with red headed kids who spends his whole day just replying to Libertarian stuff on Facebook...

Are there multiple Thor comics presently? I mean, at any given time you've got multiple Spider Man, X-Men etc storylines going along. They did a Batman where he was an old man and X-Men stories where everybody died or lost their powers.

It's not unusual to make drastic changes without tarnishing the legacy of the comic.

Once every 2 months. So due back in September.

Sweet as. I'll be around then, so keep me posted. Only a 45 minute drive from my folks place to Armidale.

Is that the only town up that way you hit?

Meh, they Killed Spiderman and replaced him with Doc Oc. Comic writers do this shit from time to time to shake things up

By the time Avengers 2 comes out, comic book Thor will be back as a dude

Tamworth is my main port of call, I spend 1/2 a day there Mon + Tue and a full day Thu. I also have Gunnedah for 1/2 a day Tue, Armidale as mentioned on Wed, then the town's between Tamworth and Scone on Fri. Keeps me busy...

Shit, that is busy. Get to see some beautiful (if not boring) country though. Tamworth and Gunnedah are kind of shit, but I think Armidale is a really pretty town.

It hasn't rained up this way in at least 3 weeks apparently, so the landscape is a bit dull at the moment. Last time I was up though it was quite picturesque. Gunnedah I keep returning to just to try and find another Miranda Kerr...

Born in Oberon. Still prefer the cold mountain climate over f**king oppressive humidity-enhanced heat. But do you think I can convince the missus to move? She has the exact opposite temperature preference.

I'm confused. Why does it matter what she prefers?

Look up "pussywhipped" on the Urban Dictionary.

 

[Bulldog Force]

No.
