@bones a guy on a podcast I listen to kept a deer in a chiller for a year then ate it. They cut an inch off the outside and ate the meat inside , reckoned it had the texture of cheese .
Same guy cooked and ate a coyote too.You're not listening to the right podcasts, you want the ones like this one if we're talking extreme eating.
I've read a fair bit about that crazy bitch, the cops who were first on the scene needed psychiatric help afterwards.
Can't think why

I think I'll be at the Wakes/Oz game - wearing red and drinking with a bunch of Welsh birds. Beer at the ground?
Works for me

She certainly disproves the theory that it's only the hot ones who are crazy

@mariner4life My wife was so sick of my preaching on the subject she took me to a seaside sushi shop and said "eat this!" I did and then she told me it was whale. Tasteless shit compared to other sushi. The whale bacon sold in some supermarkets is OK though.

I've had Irish oysters in Ireland and still prefer Bluff but then I flew to Bluff from Akl for the day just to eat oysters.
Agree about paua done well it's very good. Havent been able to try rotten cray and to me that is illogical.
Pretty much the only thing from the sea I can't abide is sea cucumber although I haven't had whale. I have had seal and it wasn't great.
I don't have an issue with eating different foods dog was OK insects are / can be good - Cobra blood shooters are just an excuse to brag.
Croc is OK but a bit bland - like snake. Roo ostrich all the darker meats are good. Balut is actually quite nice although very rich. Heard mixed reports on guinea pig sparrows a lot of effort from not much return
Guinea pig is similar to sparrows/partridges/other-small-game-birds... decent enough, but the effort/return ratio is dubious.
Piranha - way, way too much effort for fuck all, and the little shits are still trying to kill you after they're dead... tiny razor sharp bones.
And yeah - croc/snake/tortoise - pretty bland.
Had whale in Iceland... can't remember much about it, which I guess is a review in itself.
Roo steak - excellent... seems strange the ockers don't take more advantage of that. Are the wild ones disease-ridden?
One thing very high on my list of things to try - koala. I figure it will be fatty shit, but just the looks on aussie's faces would be worth it. -
@machpants @Bones Yeah. The plane "had become visual with the ground".
Me no likey.

@bones said in Alternative needed from the absolute crap of stuff.co.nz:
Is this a lot? Olympians could run that distance in that time...
@Snowy @MachpantsAt that rate/altitude - they had another 35 seconds or so before the autopilot "landed" the plane.
No problem, clickbait "news". -

@Snowy @MachpantsAs the guys say above it is the proximity to the ground that matters and the fact that the autopilot had a capture altitude of zero - so conceivably would have just flown into the ground (they normally have an auto disconnect of about 500 ft so it probably wouldn't have kept going without a pilot doing something. The actual rate of decent isn't too excessive for a pressurised aircraft (at altitude).
Strange thing is that the autopilots operated independently. Most airliners (even my light aircraft) only have one altitude setting to prevent that happening i.e put an altitude in and any autopilot engaged will take you there. I have never flown a Dash 8 but that doesn't seem like a very good system.

Sounds like she's got issues from earlier pregnancies. That bit about her body 'failing her' as she had to have c-sections is actually insulting as fuck to other woman who've had too, or chosen too, take that route.
Lol, kept in the family till she self-weaned at 9. Now there's just an online article to follow that poor kid around!!

Wonder if she was a GoT fan?

@paekakboyz Mrs TR had c-sections for both our kids, #1 was 9pd 13 and #2 was 10pd 4...#1 couldnt get enough through breastfeeding so he had to go onto bottle after a few months, #2 weaned herself off at about 10 months I think but doesnt have any deep seated issues...that I am aware of

I only saw season one ,is there an obese delusional attention whore character she’s modelled herself off?
