What happened to Global Warming?
When I put my first above ground pool in around the late 90's we were able to open it in April and start swimming in May.
Now my pool is just opened and still not warm enough to swim in
I'd like some global warming back...
Eh, he's one of the 3%, so he will be ignored. The science is settled, after all /sarcasm
Note, Joe Rogan/Milo Yiannopoulos conversation is seriously NSFW at times.
I often wondered what NSFW stood for, not being as abbreviate savvy as others....
Being a Queensland supporter in the State of Origin rugby league competition here in Oz, it could stand for New South Fu**ing Wales, hehe.
Or it could stand for Never Stand For Women on public transport
Never Saw Fat Wobble....
Then again.... Never Stop Furiously Wanking.
Or Not Suitable For Women.... and .... Never Short For Words.
It could even be Nude Sunbathers Fear Water, but in any event, global warming Never Felt So Weird... until it found its way on to these 'ere forums.
I mean, how could anyone take it seriously after the pages and pages of tripe on the subject... and nothing proving its existence, substantially or otherwise.
And don't people [global warming believers] get angry when you say that you don't believe in it.
A banana bender - I knew it...
Nope! I be a scrumpy swiller frum that West Country, arrrrr! This be where I ended up.
Fing is, them grows bananas in New South 'effin' Wales.... tho they be effeminate lookin' fings [just like their rugby league side] called lady fingers. Ours are called cavendish and are a real mans fruit.
Indeed, a versatile fruit. One wonders what Tassies do with them...
Heresy!

Reminds me of this (she's a witch, err he's a climate change denier! Burn her, err fire him!):
Pretty much the same as Queenslanders.... eat 'em; use 'em for cooking; make banana smoothies, etc.
Can't say the same for NSWelshmen, though.
The name 'Lady Fingers' does suggest other uses... and if you saw the way a lot of 'em down there walked, you'd be suspicious as well.
I get confused by that place, it's so big. Let me see if I've got this right:
Queensland = crocs and sweatNorthern Territory = very wet or very drySouth Australia = small empty spaceWestern Australia = big empty spaceVictoria = old wizened people (except for Kylie)NSW = suntans and excessive waxingTasmania = pube shaped (enough said)
Yup, that pretty much covers it.... except you forgot Canberra.
Canberra = resembles a bramble patch.... 'cept the pricks are on the inside.
Oh, and there's crocs in the Northern Territory and Northern WA.... effin' big ones, too.
Yeah, what with salties, sharks, snakes, spiders - makes me wonder how you guys make it through the day.
I heard Canberra was a bit like Milton Keynes (only warmer).
I've never seen a saltie in the wild; I steer clear of beaches where sharks seem to congregate; and I've probably only seen a half dozen or so live snakes in the 46 years I've lived here.... and it's not like I've gone out of my way to avoid their habitats. I spent a lot of time horse riding in the bush when I was younger, but very rarely encountered any. Generally speaking, if you leave them alone they'll leave you alone.
I can't say the same for spiders, though. About 25 years ago I was bitten by a white tail spider and suffered a severe reaction to the bite. I lost quite a bit of soft tissue on my lower left leg from a necrotising bacteria found in the spider's digestive enzymes. Luckily the treating doctor knew the best course of action and halted the process before it ate too far into the muscle. Not all victims are so lucky! I met a bloke who still had problems some 8 years after he was bitten, with the area of the bite still quite a mess and needing thrice daily dressings.
At the end of the day however, one has probably a greater chance of getting maimed or killed on the roads. True, we have some dangerous wildlife, but its not as much a threat to life and limb as perhaps the media make it out to be. There are those who take risks, often foolishly by ignoring the warnings/danger signs, but like me, most people never see these creatures up close.
Truth be told, one is more likely to encounter vermin of the insidious kind in Canberra. Yup, the critters down there have a necrotising effect on the entire country, unless of course one is rich and donates to the Liberal Party.
In the last few years the UK has seen the rise of the giant rat, some as big as cats. 'Ratzilla' was around 50cm nose to tail...
Interestingly the sales of Kebabs have increased over the same period.
Some would argue Westminster is full of giant rats, and they'd be right.
Hehe, they haven't had a decent rat in Westminster since 'arold bloody Wilson vacated No.10.
Bit after my time, but I heard Maggie IronBritches Thatcher could frighten off any feline with her ice cold stare, which possibly explains the increase in the rat population.... the popping up of kebab stores all over the place.
bump. hehehe
This is why I heavily distrust the media now. Previously it was `Global warming- We`re all gonna die!" Now it`s nothing. Why? Because the media says so. Global warming isn`t the only issue which the media has used to panic people and sell copies. I`m sick of it.
I won`t believe any more of this kind of bs in the future and will check for myself by researching the EVIDENCE before believing anything I hear. Heck, I don`t even read newspapers any more since it`s just a form of propaganda of what they want to scare you about today.
What about global pollution. (us the next big thing I just know it.)
You won't find Koalas where it says 'Koalas' as you won't find too many trees there either....but there is this rock....and in fact dingo-eating babies are more common there...
Most I've seen is 3 in one day..... so it's safe to say it's a lot more than 'half a dozen' for me...
....and 2 of those were Brownies....aka No.2 on the world's deadliest....
I like snakes, I caught a copperhead in a quart mason jar when I was a kid, the family had a heart attack, naturally. Then they drowned my new pet.
Definitely no koalas on Urlu Ulru Ululr UrulrAyers Rock
OK....so no-one's noticed "dingo-eating babies"?
Why do I bother.....
What's so unusual about a baby eating a dingo?
Because only Elaine Benes has seen a baby eating dingo and survived. Look it up, it's still a remarkable story that will make you laugh and cry.
