    From a lot of stuff I've read over the years, there hasn't ever been a confirmed death from a red-belly. Relatively low-toxicity venom and generally mild temperament mean that officially they're not considered dangerous to humans, although you can still get pretty crook on the off chance one...

    Project Car / Motorbike thread. Let's see 'em.

    Had the "pleasure" of driving the work ute to do a delivery today; Mazda BT50 turbo-diesel. Laggiest barge I have ever met, worse even than my old man's Toyota Hi-Ace van, and that's pretty laggy. And the bloody thing reminded me why I fucking hate auto transmissions.

    Trump..... (The Sophistry Thread)

    Unfortunately I don;t think that's the model with automatic doors....

    You must have done something to really piss it off, 'cos Red-Bellies are generally pretty placid critters.

    The election thread - Two middle-late aged white men trying to be blokey and convincing..., same old shit, FFS.

    Almost worse is that there are enough equally idiotic people sharing the one brain cell in Port Hedland to elect that dingbat onto Council....

    Fuck, the sewage treatment plant a couple of suburbs away from me, which is fed by half of Melbourne is less full of shit than Trumpy!

    COVID-19: who’s going full doomsday prep on this?

    Wearing a mask does close to fuck-all for prevention of receiving an infection, its main effect is reduction of transmitting something you already have. If you pass through an infected exhalation from someone, it's going to stick to your mask that you keep breathing through, and eventually it...

    ^^^ That pretty much sums up my voting approach; I start from the bottom with both majors, then work up to the least dislikeable candidate.

    COVID-19: who’s going full doomsday prep on this?

    "Novid" might have been a term I invented...; certainly a term I've used, and not seen anywhere else.... A few months before I got the proper 'vid, I caught some god-awful beast of a thing from one of the guys in my work team. Tested neg every time, but felt like shit for a few days, and could...

    COVID-19: who’s going full doomsday prep on this?

    A bloke from my yacht club had it (again) a couple of weeks ago, but it's basically just another version of the common "cold" (which doesn't have anything to do with cold weather or getting cold), which is not a single virus, it is caused by a bunch of several different viruses, most of which...

    Don't know the source, but a friend popped this cracker quote in his Farcebook feed yesterday.... “Minority government is pretty simple. It’s where the majority of voters don’t want you”

    RS Revelation ID and service help

    The "trailhead" ID should tell you which service kit is required for that patricular fork. Rev, Reba and Sid models are all virtually identical internally, so if you track down the right vintage service doc for Reba/Sid you should be pretty well set; even a generation or two later will not be...

    Little Things You Hate

    Bludgers & Layabouts Federastion. Those knuckle-dragging troglodytes would protest and blockade any legislation or work contract that would require them to actually do any work, and anyone who did actually do any work was likely to have a lynch mob thrown at them.
