beyond deflating hearing the barrage of calls to sbs mandarin radio claiming same-sex attraction is “sick” and “abnormal”

i’m in no way a “fuck off we’re full” type, but seriously why the fuck did you move here

rove mcmanus island (Autumn Almanac), Thursday, 16 November 2017 21:25 (eight years ago)

xp to vg: i am impressed that your list is not a compendium of sugar forms like my australian list would be, like my nz list is

estela, Thursday, 16 November 2017 21:47 (eight years ago)

i was trying to cloak my sugar cravings by listing savory items

sugar:
jelly babies
snakes alive
fruit tingles
freckles
etc etc

i also really miss those small-town homemade baked goodies sold at sunday markets, like yo-yos made by a little old lady etc

for that reason i am making my family jelly slice for Thansgiving dessert this year (may or may not be served glad-wrapped on a styrofoam tray lol)

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 16 November 2017 22:42 (eight years ago)

<3 i’ve been having a fling with arnott’s venetian biscuits but monte carlos are my true love

estela, Thursday, 16 November 2017 23:34 (eight years ago)

also jelly slice glad-wrapped in a polystyrene tray is a huge winner

estela, Thursday, 16 November 2017 23:35 (eight years ago)

VG what is this “chocolate”, hast thou forsaken the DELTA CREAM?

attention vampire (MatthewK), Thursday, 16 November 2017 23:37 (eight years ago)

I FORGOT WOT THEY WERE CALLED

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 16 November 2017 23:44 (eight years ago)

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 16 November 2017 23:44 (eight years ago)

Like raspberry tile adhesive

attention vampire (MatthewK), Thursday, 16 November 2017 23:46 (eight years ago)

rove mcmanus island (Autumn Almanac), Friday, 17 November 2017 00:08 (eight years ago)

the proof that i am not making that up is that you could not make that up

rove mcmanus island (Autumn Almanac), Friday, 17 November 2017 00:09 (eight years ago)

barf

Ween have a lot to answer for imo

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 17 November 2017 00:09 (eight years ago)

bahahahahahahaha yes

rove mcmanus island (Autumn Almanac), Friday, 17 November 2017 00:09 (eight years ago)

my friend brought me a ton of flavored ones

pina colada tasted like a scented candle, it was horrifying

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 17 November 2017 00:10 (eight years ago)

i really liked the white choc ones tho, which surprised me

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 17 November 2017 00:11 (eight years ago)

i am dead against the salted caramel infiltration of tim tams, it’s the noxious weed of dessert ingredients

estela, Friday, 17 November 2017 00:19 (eight years ago)

i love regular caramel though

estela, Friday, 17 November 2017 00:19 (eight years ago)

salted caramel ice cream is very good. hope that it doesn't become the new pumpkin spice, however

Dan S, Friday, 17 November 2017 00:24 (eight years ago)

it’s not by accident that “salted caramel” is an anagram of “serrated tussock” xp

rove mcmanus island (Autumn Almanac), Friday, 17 November 2017 00:32 (eight years ago)

lol

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 17 November 2017 00:47 (eight years ago)

the problem i find with most salted caramel things (especially the supermarket-brand bandwagonners) is that they're not nearly salty enough

monotony, Friday, 17 November 2017 01:16 (eight years ago)

also many xps: hi autumn almanac, we're neighbours! (although partner & i are considering moving back northside or even over to trendy yarrville sometime next year)

monotony, Friday, 17 November 2017 01:17 (eight years ago)

we are the 82.0%ers

which suburb?

rove mcmanus island (Autumn Almanac), Friday, 17 November 2017 01:39 (eight years ago)

I've started reading this, its very good:

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Friday, 17 November 2017 02:00 (eight years ago)

(startled that QE is such an expensive tome to buy, but I needed a good lunch read!)

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Friday, 17 November 2017 02:00 (eight years ago)

people who think marriage is, as Mojo Nixon said, a way to screw yourself up REAL good are also "people"

ice cream social justice (Dr Morbius), Friday, 17 November 2017 02:59 (eight years ago)

Sure, but in your country at least you can make that choice one way or t'other.

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Friday, 17 November 2017 03:11 (eight years ago)

xps ben law’s qe should be required reading. i’ve not finished it but even the first part explains exactly what safe schools is and isn’t.

rove mcmanus island (Autumn Almanac), Friday, 17 November 2017 03:52 (eight years ago)

Truth. I wish I could make my dad read it. He probably wouldnt.

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Friday, 17 November 2017 04:24 (eight years ago)

xps: South Melbourne, not far from the market. a lovely area if a little bougie.

monotony, Friday, 17 November 2017 04:42 (eight years ago)

i miss south melb market and the plant nursery on the tramline. I mean Brunswick is nice but I still feel like a southside gal sometimes.

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Friday, 17 November 2017 04:44 (eight years ago)

also Ben's QE is one of the best things I've read this year. The hysteria and misinformation out there in relation to Safe Schools absolutely infuriates me and I'm glad a relatively high profile writer took the time to meticulously correct the record.

monotony, Friday, 17 November 2017 04:45 (eight years ago)

mono were you someone else previously on 'ere or are you a new mongrel ILXor?

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Friday, 17 November 2017 04:57 (eight years ago)

Relatively new breed I think (can't remember when I joined - maybe 2012?)

monotony, Friday, 17 November 2017 06:09 (eight years ago)

September 4, 2012

don't call it a comeback
