    Headaches, fuck them, why have we evolved to be debilitated by fucken headaches.

    Headaches are child's play, wait to you get chronic migraines.

    Speaking of queues, when I first moved to Australia, I found it odd that the person at the counter would always say "next please". I'm thinking do Australians not know how the fuck a queue works, I can clearly see when it is my turn, I don't need to be told.

    Its the same with the checkout chick/dude who scans your last item the says "will that be all"?

    Oh, actually, now that you mention it, maybe I'll duck back to isle 7 and grab another 6 pack of bog paper.

    @chimoaus I live in the land of queuing, you'd be astonished how many times the person at the front is standing there fucken gormless when it's their turn. Then they get to the counter and dig around for their wallet for 5 minutes...oh what a surprise I have to pay.

    They're asking if you want cigarettes which are hidden storage, so that's not so bad. Or cash back

    @Victor-Meldrew that's the one. Did a urine test as well just for fun.

    For a general test I had to supply samples of semen, urine and pooh. “Fuck it” says Mrs Cato, “just send them a pair of your pants”.

    Drivers who accelerate to overtake a lorry and then slow right down as they go past said lorry meaning you can't pass.

    What the fuck are they doing? Counting the wheel nuts?

    I've been caught there before. Standing at a check in queue in Oz, and the person in front left ... so moved forward, and the person at the counter looked at me and said "did I call you forwards? Back you go".

    Glad she enjoyed her little power trip on her minimum wage job.

    Or he HK barge right through then claim to have not seen the queue ... always a fave time to watch an expat lose it as it happens for the 450th time that day.

    I don’t mind queues in general, but hate fake ones for pubs and cafes. We can see all the empty tables you dipshit (obviously pre Covid).

    @Victor-Meldrew yeah not sure I want to put my cats into the roof with Pink Batts...which surely cant be good for rats living in them either?

    I set traps and baits, found 2 dead ones up there and other dead ones on our section, and no longer finding droppings in my shed either.
