I want to hug you right now, spaz.
I am wavering between thinking I want to be a Dad and wanting to be a DINK for the rest of my life. Reading this thread makes me want the DINK life, I hate reading what parents write about having kids, I really do, it’s same stuff regurgitated over and over and I can’t stand reading/listening to it. I especially don’t like people who think they are superhuman for bringing up kids, get farked, people have been doing it for literally thousands of years, you’re not special or amazing, you’re just another parent, get over it. Flipside is that your kid isn’t a unique and special snowflake either, they’re just another kid and outside of you the parents and their grandparents, no one else gives a damn.
Sorry for the rant but my FB and some of the general conversations i hear these days is all about peoples kids and frankly I’m over it. I would prefer to have kids without some preconceived notion of what the experience will be like. Others are constantly telling me and other friends exactly what will happen when I have kids with some air of superiority and magical additional maturity that instantaneously manifests itself within them once they or their significant other pump out a child, all thinly disguised as advice. Keep it to yourself, if I’m going to have kids I don’t want to hear about it other then the mechanics of getting the kid out with both mum and child healthy. I can only imagine the “help and advice” level goes up exponentially once you or your significant other are actually pregnant.
Actually I think it might come down to that basic need of some people to be able to say “I told you so.” Please begin with the “well with that attitude you shouldn’t have kids anyway” comments.
Well, that’ll all change once you have a kid.

I just couldn’t resist.
Anyway back on topic, today I got these
Will be interesting to see how this performs in the Sony cam, if it’s shizen it only cost $19 so who cares.
I also bought $392 worth of electricity from AGL for last quarter, lucky me!
COTD for those DCs Nthn? I bought 4 pairs of shorts, a t shirt and some shoes from their DC sale, not even $200. Cleanin’ out the wardrobe finally.
Yeah BM, certainly was, I was tempted to go a few more shorts but I have 5 pairs already in the rotation that I thought another 2 was ample for my needs! The trucker hat is kinda designed to fit in that flat brim style which will take some getting used to for me, mine are usually curved at the front.
I got 5 pairs of shorts, similar looking to those, most comfortable shorts i own, had them for over a year now and still going strong, 5 for $25
Oh and their all “brand name” shorts
Damn, wish I’d have known about a DC sale :(
Still going TJ.
Got this singlet, a shirt with the same design on it (drunk purchase, i dont even remember ordering the shirt, was a separate order)
Cool new label started up by 3 brothers i think up in QLD
Still going TJ.
Link?
Catch of the Day mate, not sure what BW policy is on that site.
Found it, not much left so I’m going to pass
It’s not snow industry related so I don’t think policy counts lol.
It’s more to stop people importing from overseas than buying from Aussie sites.
Well the price tag on it was in USD so not sure what that means!
Yeah, I don’t think COTD is an Authorised Aussie Reseller, so it’s a no goer!!!!!
I’m sure there was some cheap goggles goin on there once, and when Jez looked into it, they were a parallel import!!!!!
