My pet hate is red arrows. It seems to me, at that intersection, it is clear to a driver turning right whether it is safe to do so. If…

We might have a communication problem. You said No, then continued to say stuff that totally aligns to what I said. ps: my reply was to…

It's not about having fines, it's about lying to the insurance company about them. If you're insured as a driver who has never had an…

Just look at the bandwagons people get on these days. We've produced a gullible generation.

Probably not what you're looking for, but I can confirm that you can slow cook a chicken in a microwave. I call it ash chicken. Also, as…

It sounds like you have a classier way of drinking the juice. Care to elaborate? My technique needs improvement: I take the chicken in bag…

But I'm saving them money, so why would I have to pay a fee?

This is how I reckon it should be done. These days we could get an alert to indicate come and collect your mail. Delivering to each house…

I knew a long-time bike rider why was learning to drive a car, and refused to head-check, claiming it was a dangerous distraction. I don't…

You're def doing it wrong. Get a driving lesson and find out what else you've been doing wrong.

Thanks. This is news to me, and certainly not what was taught when I learned to drive. (Hence I guess why people struggle to change.)

You sound like you rely on laws to keep you safe. Which is fine, because if you get caught being distracted by a conversation, you will get…

For learner drivers, I 'd say yes. For others, it's a good reminder that one day you could kill somebody if you allow yourself to be…

It sounds like your agent was negligent, you might want to lawyer up. Same happened to me. No agent, so all on me for trusting people.…

Of course they are. That's what they do. I was unemployed for 5 years, then sparsely employed for several more, but never on their books. I…

> I wasn't expecting a difference, but I'm suprised that I'm struggling to notice any change whatsoever What a strange thing to say. You…

Ouch your investment isn't in super? That's going to hurt when it would have been tax free when you retire.

This. The business is your retirement savings. ATO allows you to invest in your business rather than your business struggling while you…

I agree with DingoBilly. OP can be cautious and protect what he has, as it should be sufficient for him. But my plan is to be 100% in ETFs…

It might go against diversification "rules", but I figure stock markets tend to return a predictable return over a reasonably long period,…

I'd look into the CGT benefits in retirement of buying your ETFs in a SMSF. My plan (so far) is to have 100% in ETFs, and just sell down…

Yeah I was going to reply "try to get a loan and see if credit cards are debt". After decades of collecting points, my conclusion is it…

> It's not my belief Hold on, do you a) believe it; b) not believe it; or c) not think for yourself > they're the scientific and legal…

I disagree, but I'll tolerate your beliefs to the extent that you don't try to impose it upon me.

I remember my GM once saying "if you don't love being here you shouldn't be". Management figured the tragic restructure that offended…

Out of negs.

I totally get it. I had a friend who was told they had to add pronouns to their email footer, and didn't feel comfortable on it. I don't…

who mentioned being scared of anything? Should we call it pronounphobia? I'm so sick of everything being a phobia. Refusing to conform to…
