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)

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

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 17 November 2017 00:01 (eight years ago)

indonesia had cheese flavoured tim tams a few years ago

cheese flavoured

cheese

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)

(we’re deep in st k)

rove mcmanus island (Autumn Almanac), Friday, 17 November 2017 01:43 (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

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Friday, 17 November 2017 08:08 (eight years ago)

still so impatient. I have literally had the number of people I could go into a sham marriage DOUBLED, WHY MUST I WAIT.

oh, boy, .GIF! That's where I'm a Viking! (edwardo), Friday, 17 November 2017 11:32 (eight years ago)

Heartening conversation with my 100yo grandmother last night, who is all in favour of gay marriage and voted yes

Mince Pramthwart (James Morrison), Saturday, 18 November 2017 22:43 (eight years ago)

We got a new green state mp, first indigenous woman in the state parliament too. Things are looking up.

American Fear of Pranksterism (Ed), Sunday, 19 November 2017 00:32 (eight years ago)

yeah this is a clear and long-overdue turning point imo.

james: that is incredibly excellent and almost made me cry (again, for like the 70th time this week)

rove mcmanus island (Autumn Almanac), Sunday, 19 November 2017 08:39 (eight years ago)

I had avoided even discussing the topic with anyone whose views i did not know as it was all so depressing, so this was a very nice surprise

Mince Pramthwart (James Morrison), Sunday, 19 November 2017 08:43 (eight years ago)

me too, legitimately could not deal with learning who the bigots are

rove mcmanus island (Autumn Almanac), Sunday, 19 November 2017 09:08 (eight years ago)

also you have the best grandfather

rove mcmanus island (Autumn Almanac), Sunday, 19 November 2017 09:10 (eight years ago)

nice sizzle there pato

rove mcmanus island (Autumn Almanac), Monday, 20 November 2017 10:54 (eight years ago)

maybe we're meant to be surprised that bigots are falling over themselves to corrupt this

rove mcmanus island (Autumn Almanac), Tuesday, 21 November 2017 07:26 (eight years ago)

And now we can have a golden gaytime this summer.
