Willy has his house in disorder. I can relate.
I bet the coffee is well fucked where Jim and Tom are.
Is there good coffee in the States Waxxy?
I seriously doubt it.
Gary goes pretty good that’s for sure
Dunno Seedsy. I have a cuppa each shift, but get it at the cafeteria here at work. I rarely buy/drink the stuff anywhere else, and i've always just filled up at a gas station.
Know a guy who gave up a career as a plastic surgeon to become a coffee broker.
He was travellin the world in searcha The Beans, and havin a blast doin it, as far as i could see.
Haven't seen him in a few years now....
Sounds promising Wax! Coffee broker hey. Must be something going on.
Pretty good coffee down here. Good roasted blends of beans. Some better than others but no percolator nonsense we see on yank tv.
It’s a big wank factor here in oz.
On another note. It’s heading towards 37 degrees Celsius by the end of the week here inland of the coast. There’ll be too many “oh my god how hot is it” utterances by then.
Eff that, Seedsy. I like it at around 18 degrees celsius.
My Wet/Cold is just beginning to show it’s pretty face.
Your Hot/Dry has started to snarl.
We’ll flip soon as….
Here, i am full on stoked. I have fully disregarded my future (and still, likely) surgeon and gotten wet a bunch here lately.
Good season, this, for me.
Rough and tumble for the surfers (standin up and fallin over), but GREAT for us spongers, inside.
I am relegated to sponger status, for now.
I stand on a log when i think no one’s watchin. And have fallin over too damn much here, recently.
Gotten rusty with the Pop Up.
(where is Pop Down when i need him?!
Anyways, in MY life experience…
coffee broker=mule.
So there, i said it.
Whoops! (scratching head) (what thread was this, again?)
I mighta gone Bogan, with this.
- when you’ve reached your ‘limit’ ;)
… only then can you sell out
& whether it’s sucking a camel
… or soaking in ice ;);)
- one day left is all we ever got
… to love, and love again ;)
‘amen’
;);)
Nice finish, Jelly. That’s up my tree. (assuming i know what the fuck i just said.)
- all things ;)
… all things required to balance out religious style election hysteria ;);)
Now look at this.
If the flesh and blood Jesus ,the only one I believe existed, saw this nonsense would he bitch slap a few morons. My what would he think? If it was these times would he be packing. Pop a few caps in some arses instead of turning over a few traders tables. Righteous human goes nuts.
Us humans are really ridiculous.
^ absolutely scary shit. the same people who believe that loved ones who die of cancer didn't 'believe' enough, and say that taylor swift encourages dangerous mass hysteria. The only winner in this sicko clip, is the bass player and his finger work-out.
& now something for the faithful interplanetary travellers ;)
… after all, occupying mars is one step closer to holy planet heaven haha
- maybe time for a tribute to the little green men on this planet and beyond
;);)
(we did not pay them.. I am not anticipating any running)
(if you don't laugh at loud at '200 billion galaxies', you don't get it..
if you think we will meet anyone for anywhere other than Earth, you don't get it..
and if you think some clay pots in the middle east have something to offer us today..
you are fading, and need to find something, no aliens, not govt conspiracies,
I'd recommend trying to become an @AW, and nurturing the child within..)
so someone not saying 'hey human, I acknowledge your thing',
amazing. so @indo, wanna week in Radelaide? get a cheap flight tommoz,
we'll smoke cigars at Hains & Co, see some punk.. fack me, is it that hard to go, ''nah thanks'.
Are people talking on here or soapbox preaching? @sypkan, what use are you to man?

you're clever at finding things @JF.. any of this kind of metal done without the dour faces, pointy headstocks and hackneyed imagery? Like, a group that looks like Weezer, but growling with double kicks and tinny distortion? Seems a niche.. possibly wouldn't get too many dark festival gigs, but surely there's one..?
reminds me of the joyfulness of faith no more, after they stopped calling themselves faith no man, and ditched chuck mosely (who died before covid, incidentally) for a baby face patton, the feller eventually responsible for exposing anthony kiedis as a dickwad.
I like little people. I want one. And a pair of korean housmaid slippers that say adidas on them in a large font. nice find, @JF : )
… glad someone in the congregation approves haha
- & now, with all things, let’s celebrate religious expression ;)
Put it up before. Algorithm gave me another run.
Funny stuff but in reality it’s just good old logic.
Everyone gets a run. Almost. No Sihks or Zoroastrians. Or Sovereign Citizens.
Google the text if you want to see the original
We believe Jesus was a prophet the same we believe in all other prophets, because we were taught by God and his final prophet. We believe that the Quran is the literal words of God, and in the Quran, God confirms in several places the prophethood of Jesus.
For example: Quran 2:136: ”Say, O believers, “We believe in Allah and what has been revealed to us; and what was revealed to Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, and his descendants; and what was given to Moses, Jesus, and other prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them. And to Allah we all submit.”
Not only do Muslims believe in Jesus, it is actually a fundamental part of the religion to believe in all the prophets and messengers that God has sent. No Muslim can call himself a Muslim if he disbelieves in Jesus’s prophethood.
Shortest simplest answer? We believe in the Quran, and the Quran said Jesus was a prophet. That's it.
That's totally enough for general Muslims who are not scholars and they see it very apprehensible to human mind. Anyone with the correct creed (Aqeeda) won't even overthink it or be skeptical.
Now for those who want to dig further, they can study Christianity and the roots of Christianity and all the details out there, they will get the same answer the Quran told us eventually.
Boy oh boy there's like... a whole academic library about biblical consensus to talk about here.
I digged deep into Christianity, especially the opinions of Christian scholars who are experts of the Bible. What I found was a 9/11 / moon landing level of conspiracy that happens to be FACTUAL AND TRUE.
I can't believe we don't see the scandal of Christianity every day on the news.
You can dm because it's just so so much and overwhelming but here's a summary:
All the authors of the 4 Gospels are anonymous. We don't know who wrote them, why they wrote them, when, how, where and what they originally wrote in the beginning.
There's not a single mention of the resurrection and the trinity. It's just not there. Different dogma's interpret the verses differently and give them the meaning they want. Ignoring the intent of the original authors.
There are many forgeries of the Bible. This is just a fact. We don't know for sure what is true and what is not.
The "pure" original Bible that contains all the teachings of Jesus (pbuh), or to put it more accurately, what was the original manuscript that was present in the lifetime of Jesus (pbuh) and was taught and practiced by the disciples of Jesus (pbuh), is simply lost to us. It doesn't exist anymore. We just have copies of copies of copies that were changed, altered and forged along the years..
Funny bunch us humans!
I believe the reissue of the Scorched Peanut Bar last couple of years is devine.
^ it’s true @seeds, this belief of yours is real haha
… & the pack of mini scorched peanut bar pieces, yummm ;)
- there is also a pack of polly waffle ‘balls’ out there (the holy grail)
The bible facts u provided are real too ;)
“… copies of copies of copies that were changed, altered and forged along the years..”
^ yep …’changed’ (edited and falsified to suit), ‘altered’ (manipulated and engineered to appear as non fiction) and ‘forged’ (used as a tool for power and control by the crooked)
;);)
Here you go optimist
Not sure my motivation...my instinctive need to stick up for the underdog...my secret desire to be one day honoured rightfully with the role of Forum moderator (expecting a call any day)...
But anyway I couldn't help but read your troubles on another thread...unfortunately I found myself siding with everyone's posts...other than your own...except for the part where you were told you can't post here!
So I put my low IQ mind to coming up with a solution that suits all...and here it is...a safe place if you like
You can post anything you like about your beliefs...and no one has to read it unless they want! Easy peasy...
maybe you could even get Jesus, fat Buddha, Mohammed, and friends to converse in adult conversation here
Solving the world problems, one at a time...call it taking a shovel as a way of moving that mountain
All the best...brother
PS...I actually was born again once, but I grew up, and grew a brain of my own...and realised it was all a load of shit!
