This post is amazing. It starts out as a comfy nostalgia post ("I remember summer days on my friend's farm") but then it turns into a post that is darker in nature ("watching demonstrations of sheep being slaughtered and gutted"). Lastly it ends up with a hint of acceptance for the world, along with a personal opinion on the subject ("Gross but interesting"). This is a 10/10 post! Good job.

Feels good to have my comment featured in the newspaper again. MFW I'm taking my political shitposting to a national level.
DaddyCoolVipper
Strictly speaking, all online shitposting is shitposting at an international level.

>mfw people complain about the holocaust

If the Jews didn't like the nazis then they should have just moved to Somalia. They voluntarily accepted the condition of being genocided by staying in Germany.

Yes it was. It was a satirical reductio ad absurdum argument against people who try to justify government actions by saying you can just leave.

Generally I base by posts on the idea that people are smart enough to understand some subtlety and will realise that if an argument is stupid and illogical, it's not meant to be taken seriously, even if they are ignorant of the topic of the post in question. So I don't dumb down my posts by explaining everything in literal terms.
B1rd
And in this case, there is plenty of context to understand what I'm talking about. Just looked at the two previous posts.
B1rd
Anyway, to change the subject away from politics.

Having a cold shower was a cool experience. It's autumn at the moment, and I just turned the cold water on full blast and hopped under. It really provokes and extreme physiological response, and after a minute or two the water actually feels warm. Having cold showers is supposed to have a lot of health benefits and it feels great, so I can see why the Scandinavians do ice bathing.

thinking about it makes me cold. Idk, don't think it's for me. On the contrary, I like hot baths.
B1rd
They both have their merits. However I've always been the coldest getting out of a hot shower in a cold morning. When you take a cold shower it make you cold for the first 15-30 seconds, but then your body starts to heat up a lot to compensate. Or at least it feels like it does.
keremaru
cold water used to feel good when i was younger
then i turned into a mainland american and started using hot water
but then the downside of that was that i was used to being in hot water that the air felt cold
so really cold water is the best water

..now go take a bath in a waterfall
DaddyCoolVipper
Yeah cold showers are apparently really good for you. Too spooky for me though, I like my shower time to be comfortable

Hi, sorry I'm late

Allow me to play doubles advocate here for a moment. For all intensive purposes I think you are wrong. In an age where false morals are a diamond dozen, true virtues are a blessing in the skies. We often put our false morality on a petal stool like a bunch of pre-Madonnas, but you all seem to be taking something very valuable for granite. So I ask of you to mustard up all the strength you can because it is a doggy dog world out there. Although there is some merit to what you are saying it seems like you have a huge ship on your shoulder. In your argument you seem to throw everything in but the kids Nsync, and even though you are having a feel day with this I am here to bring you back into reality. I have a sick sense when it comes to these types of things. It is almost spooky, because I cannot turn a blonde eye to these glaring flaws in your rhetoric. I have zero taller ants when it comes to people spouting out hate in the name of moral righteousness. You just need to remember what comes around is all around, and when supply and command fails you will be the first to go.

Make my words, when you get down to brass stacks it doesn't take rocket appliances to get two birds stoned at once. It's clear who makes the pants in this relationship, and sometimes you just have to swallow your prize and accept the facts. You might have to come to this conclusion through denial and error but I swear on my mother's mating name that when you put the petal to the medal you will pass with flying carpets like it’s a peach of cake.

Mark my words, when you get down to brass tacks it doesn't take rocket scientist to get two birds stoned at once. It's clear who wears the pants in this relationship, and sometimes you just have to swallow your pride and accept the facts. You might have to come to this conclusion through trial and error but I swear on my mother's maiden name that when you put the pedal to the medal you will pass with flying colours like it’s a piece of cake.

Also, you messed up on "pedal to the medal" (it's metal).

Anyway, this whole discussion reminds me of the time Aurani admitted to bathing in the open air in a waterfall or something. Said he liked to feel the wind on his cheeks.

What's wrong with that? Not a single person can see you and it's beautiful on 40 degrees with that lovely breeze hitting your body as the water embraces you.

Reminds me of that one time my retarded roommate started washing her dishes using the hot water as I showered, the water turned ice-cold.
Truly a challenging experience, the challenging part being trying to not lose my fucking shit at her. It literally says above our apartment's sink "is someone showering? don't use the water here!"

Nah, what I mean is, for example:

"Maintaining a balanced budget is more important than ensuring the welfare of all citizens."

I believe that maintaining a balanced budget is part of what ensures the welfare of all citizens, since economy doing good = more money for welfare, infrastructure, etc. So how can I honestly answer this question?

The combination of these 2 (politiscales and 8values) is the best you can do as far as online political tests go.They aren't perfect by any means, but they do give a solid insight.

My only concern here is that I see myself more as a pragmatist rather than a populist.

When does agree become a strongly agree is my issue with those tests.

You're just being too particular about the framing of the question. You should just ask yourself whether you are okay with putting the country into debt to fund social programmes as labour is prone to do.

I only own a little 125cc motorbike, which I keep at my uncle's who lives on a farm. Though he's got an old Japanese roadbike which he's offered me, it just needs new tires. I'm gonna go for my license soon.
B1rd
I'm gonna go on a walking trip to Hobart soon, so I'll be able to check the bike out on the way. There's also a sushi place with a Japanese sushi chef that I'm gonna try out when I'm down there.
Green Platinum
That's neat. I'm not all that into bikes but I have a few mates that are into riding and tinkering with them.

I've been watching Magical Angel Creamy Mami and while it is pretty average as a whole there are episodes that go absolutely crazy with the story and presentation. I'll need to look at the staff list when I finish it because there is a director and possibly a writer on the show that is absolutely golden.

I was shooting heroin and reading "The Fountainhead" in the front seat of my privately owned police cruiser when a call came in. I put a quarter in the radio to activate it. It was the chief.

“Bad news, detective. We got a situation.”

“What? Is the mayor trying to ban trans fats again?”

“Worse. Somebody just stole four hundred and forty-seven million dollars’ worth of bitcoins.”

The heroin needle practically fell out of my arm. “What kind of monster would do something like that? Bitcoins are the ultimate currency: virtual, anonymous, stateless. They represent true economic freedom, not subject to arbitrary manipulation by any government. Do we have any leads?”

“Not yet. But mark my words: we’re going to figure out who did this and we’re going to take them down … provided someone pays us a fair market rate to do so.”

“Easy, chief,” I said. “Any rate the market offers is, by definition, fair.” He laughed. “That’s why you’re the best I got, Lisowski. Now you get out there and find those bitcoins.” “Don’t worry,” I said. “I’m on it.”

I put a quarter in the siren. Ten minutes later, I was on the scene. It was a normal office building, strangled on all sides by public sidewalks. I hopped over them and went inside. “Home Depot™ Presents the Police!®” I said, flashing my badge and my gun and a small picture of Ron Paul. “Nobody move unless you want to!” They didn’t. “Now, which one of you punks is going to pay me to investigate this crime?” No one spoke up.

“Come on,” I said. “Don’t you all understand that the protection of private property is the foundation of all personal liberty?” It didn’t seem like they did.

“Seriously, guys. Without a strong economic motivator, I’m just going to stand here and not solve this case. Cash is fine, but I prefer being paid in gold bullion or autographed Penn Jillette posters.” Nothing. These people were stonewalling me. It almost seemed like they didn’t care that a fortune in computer money invented to buy drugs was missing. I figured I could wait them out. I lit several cigarettes indoors. A pregnant lady coughed, and I told her that secondhand smoke is a myth. Just then, a man in glasses made a break for it.

“Subway™ Eat Fresh and Freeze, Scumbag!®” I yelled. Too late. He was already out the front door. I went after him. “Stop right there!” I yelled as I ran. He was faster than me because I always try to avoid stepping on public sidewalks. Our country needs a private-sidewalk voucher system, but, thanks to the incestuous interplay between our corrupt federal government and the public-sidewalk lobby, it will never happen.

I was losing him. “Listen, I’ll pay you to stop!” I yelled. “What would you consider an appropriate price point for stopping? I’ll offer you a thirteenth of an ounce of gold and a gently worn ‘Bob Barr ‘08’ extra-large long-sleeved men’s T-shirt!” He turned. In his hand was a revolver that the Constitution said he had every right to own. He fired at me and missed. I pulled my own gun, put a quarter in it, and fired back. The bullet lodged in a U.S.P.S. mailbox less than a foot from his head. I shot the mailbox again, on purpose.

“All right, all right!” the man yelled, throwing down his weapon. “I give up, cop! I confess: I took the bitcoins.” “Why’d you do it?” I asked, as I slapped a pair of Oikos™ Greek Yogurt Presents Handcuffs® on the guy. “Because I was afraid.” “Afraid?” “Afraid of an economic future free from the pernicious meddling of central bankers,” he said. “I’m a central banker.” I wanted to coldcock the guy. Years ago, a central banker killed my partner. Instead, I shook my head.

“Let this be a message to all your central-banker friends out on the street,” I said. “No matter how many bitcoins you steal, you’ll never take away the dream of an open society based on the principles of personal and economic freedom.” He nodded, because he knew I was right. Then he swiped his credit card to pay me for arresting him.

Are you gonna stop somewhere for the night or are you genuinely gonna walk the entire 280KM in one day
B1rd
Well I'd have a hard time walking 280KM is one day, it's probably gonna take 5 or 6. I've go a good lightweight freestanding tent that I plan to use, I'd like to try urban camping when I get in to the city too, since accommodation is quite a big expense (and I've already spent too much money on all this outdoor gear).

I don't know about Hobart's local laws but in a lot of cities you can get in trouble for urban camping, so be on the lookout for that. I wish you godspeed and a good travel!
