I get no respect for things I'm an expert in with my family
Personally I think you should be happy that your mother chose them and not you and that you should try to distance yourself a bit and leave them to it. I watched my mother go through all of this with her siblings and it wrecked her emotionally, in the end she gave up and left them to it for the...- Outdated

I saw one in a shop about 20 years ago, I had to ask what it was, I had no idea.- Outdated

Going Places
I live in a city that has good cheap public transport and I tried doing without a car for a few years. It's fine as long as you enjoy being trapped in a city and never want to see anything different.- Outdated

Does Clickbait Work?
Here the most popular cat videos involve a man with a high powered rifle and night vision. :) Here a lot of animals that Europeans think are cute have become feral pests. Cats, rabbits, foxes, deer. If you do a search there's a video of a bloke that dropped 800 feral pigs in 4 hours from a... -
Anyone else have trouble staying happy
I think a lot of people have unrealistically high expectations of how the world should be too. Happiness is not a permanent state, in fact it can not be because without experiencing hard times you'd never know what happiness is. Happiness is a few hours here and a few moments there, memories of...- Outdated

We have some big lizards here but nothing the size of those things. Our goannas get to about 2.5 metres long and hunt prey up to the size of a house cat.- Outdated

Post something Weird or Random
First cyclone of the season has Darwin locals worried because of the path it's taking. The Bureau of Meteorology doesn't seem all that concerned but they're all sitting in an airconditioned office 3000 Km away, same deal with the journalists reporting it in the news. Local understanding of the...- Outdated

Romantic Relationships and Special Interests
Not a situation I've ever been in but I've seen it all too often and struggle to understand why some people find that situation acceptable. Stop and think for a few minutes what the word "partner" actually means, look it up in a concise dictionary if you have to, then read that sentence back to...- Outdated

The only known fatality from a cassowary is an idiot in Florida that illegally owned one. He used to go in to it's enclosure with a shield and make it attack him to show off to tourists and he got exactly what he deserved.- Outdated

What Makes People Love You
What you say is partly true but, and it's a big but, I never needed validation from other people and That is why in general they all love me. People know who I am and where I stand because I never compromise my own ideals in an attempt to appease others. I don't need their approval. They can...- Outdated

Feeling more confident after resolving a workplace conflict maybe. Possibly better understanding a few more things about yourself as well. It all sounds good to me, hope it continues.- Outdated

Remembrance Sunday
That's certainly the case in Australia. A very powerful cultural institution here is the Retired Serviceman's League, or RSL. It's a charity organisation that runs clubs with bars to raise money to help returned soldiers and the families of those that didn't make it back. The first time I went...- Outdated

Responding To Bullies With Humor
That's the important factor, it was in front of everyone else. In normal workplace conflicts the correct thing to do is to pull someone to one side and speak to them privately, but that has no effect on a bully, it's meaningless to them. What they want is their ego flattered, you need to give...- Outdated

Odd fact, they don't "inject" venom. After they bite something they dribble and that saliva is venomous, in an underwater situation they will have moved away from you before they start drooling and you're quite safe. Pick them up out of the water because they're pretty and hold them in your hand...- Outdated
