Cards Against Humanity Australia Edition $20 @ Curious Planet (In-Store Only)

160

Cards Against Humanity is a party game for horrible people. Unlike most of the party games you've played before, Cards Against Humanity is as despicable and awkward as you and your friends.

The game is simple. Each round, one player asks a question from a Black Card, and everyone else answers with their funniest White Card.

        As the ACCC says, privatisation of electricity is currently "unsustainable" and is "threatening the viability of large and small enterprises".

        It's pretty simple: these businesses opened up when people weren't losing hundreds or thousands of dollars per year to electricity. That money no longer enters the local economy creating the virtuous circle of economic growth and jobs. Most of it leaves the country to go to the foreign owners of Australia's electricity system.

          And the rest to tax evading companies like Amazon. Meanwhile house prices increase to insane levels, transport is over capacity and worst of all, Arnotts will change the recipe of their Shapes.

                @Tuba: He just means Asians.

                While the comment is racist as hell, there is fact that in some areas house prices were driven up, not just by demand, but by one-up offering to ensure purchase;
                Shouldn't be blamed on one race though, happens across a few different races migrating here, and 'whiteys' are just as bad in places like Bali or Thailand.

                The issue is a lack of understanding within migrating races, and a lack of planning by the government to fail to tax the EVERLOVING HELL out of Absentee owners.

                Basically:
                Imagine you put your house up for "Offers around 500k".
                Typical Aussies (whatever their race) come up and say 'Well, times are hard, I'll offer $450k', fair offer, and you'd probably consider it, depending on other similar offers.

                However then someone from a racial group who typically has significantly more money IF they were allowed to migrate recently, comes in and says, while NOT understanding the 'Australian way of life' (little nuances like bargaining, 'mateship' and all the little unspoken things that come with growing up in any country in the world);
                "I don't want to be outbid, you want $500k? I'll pay $700k".

                Of COURSE you're going to take it! One or two people who are well off doing that will cause no noticeable level of harm.
                However, if you get a few hundred, or realistically thousand people doing this, well, why wouldn't I ask $700k now? It's the most common offer after all.

                Meanwhile, working class Joe regardless of race, is standing there with his $400k loan and his $50k deposit, having saved all his 40 years of life for a little piece to call his own, totally priced out of the market.

                He worked here, saved here, and for a lot of people, never once mooched off the government, but he can't afford to TRULY live the Australian dream anymore.

                Race doesn't come into it, it's poor planning, and a lack of cultural\market understanding.

                  @MasterScythe: Mining money, and there is some flow on to others not in mining but they have some benefit or flow on to keep them, lets call it mining related, and those not mining related at all creates a two speed economy. People involved in mining, and the flow on economy like some trades and trucking etc, are getting top rates for their job, while many remain in jobs on $20 an hour. And often less than FT hours. Thats an economic outcome from new economy rates, and old economy rates. Immigrant and OS investors are more recent. We've had immigration before that didnt drive prices up like today. In general immigrants bought into the cheaper areas, then they sold up to the next wave of immigrants a decade or two later. At least, was so in the 60s 70s and 80s.

                  Add in crazy low interest rates and part of the problem is it costs less per week to mortgage and buy than it does to rent so investment buying pushes the prices up for those that want to live in them. Many who ordinarily would be on $25 an hour, are getting well over that due to the introduction of China to the global market (mining and mining related money). But its the effect that has on local wages and the differential pay rates between mining and mining related and non mining related that is causing the issue and less China buying up property. IMO

                  To keep a sparky in the suburbs the rates have increased enough to entice them to decide to have a lifestyle (home each day) rather than go mining. And mining has to offer more to attract enough qualified people. Add in witht he amount of work being done investing in property tradies are doing alright in the burbs on that investor money too. Meanwhile the forklift operator at the markets, or the shelf stacker in Woolies is not getting his/her wages impacted by the same upward pressure. Two speed.

                  @MasterScythe: You’re not competing with Chinese for your standard house in the suburbs.

                  Unless you’re talking mid upper marker few million cushy suburb home.

                  Or Glen Waverley for some reason.

    Curious Planet is the antithesis of OzBargain. They’ll literally take your money and give you nothing in return.

    PSA: Do not order online from Curious Planet. It’s a vortex from which you’ll not recover.

    • You can't order online anyway, OP didn't check first.

    • Oh wow, 'curious planet' was 'Australia Geographic'? Thats super sad :(

      I mean, sure technology and shit marches on, but a trip the the museum or science center still shows it's just as packed as ever with kids wanting hands on learning.

      I remember getting fossils to 'chip away', the original 'orgasmatron', a few puzzles and unpoppable bubbles……
      These stores were like my dream as a kid.

      Sad to see them downsizing\closing so dramatically.

      • They were great for science if your parents had money to burn.

        Owned by the Co-op Bookshop. I still have wounds from buying overpriced textbooks.

      • at my local shops they literally put a cheap styro 'Curious Planet' sign taped over the old Nat Geo store sign. I believe its finished its clearout now and is a vacant shop

    • Absolutely, if you got a gift card for xmas you need to spend double the value to use it! What a scam.

  • Shipping is $7.95 for standard and $14.95 for express.

    If you have access to free printing (work, uni, leeching off your old man's printer, etc.) and extra OzBargain creditz, you can print out the base deck for free directly from the CAH website.

    • Not as good to play with, i've done it. Ended up getting the real set.

  • I wouldn’t buy anything from them online. You risk not receiving it and then not being able to get a refund easily.

  • +2

    You actually can't buy anything from the website, and all purchases must be made in-store.

    Moreover, most bricks and mortar stores only have about 100 items left.

    Their website is absolutely not an accurate representation of what can be bought in store.

  • They have other potential bargains as well..

  • Suggest checking the box before you purchase to ensure everything is included that is supposed to be.

  • We're making a kid's version of this call Kids Against Maturity. I wish I could find a place to print it for $20!

  • A shop called bargain depot in Epping, Victoria. got this game for 3.5$ . not the Australian edition though

  • Good old Cards Against 'Yo Mamma. The board game that is basically a series of insults and descriptions of obscene acts designed for shock factor.

      Yep. Found Joking hazard better as it has the same user created shock value but you aren't trying to embarrass individuals. Just laughing at a wildly inappropriate cartoon.
