  1. Port Adelaide FC = Collingwood Lite.
  2. Don't know what music the numpty listened too but I got threatened by a football fan on a 4wd forum. Stupid fucker barracked for one of the most disliked clubs in the Australia Football League (AFL). There's been running jokes for 80 years about Magpie fans being toothless deadbeats. This stupid fuck was mouthing off about how great his team was and because I love to stir up shit and be annoying I gave the guy shit right back. He got all narky and started threatening me, started as harmless internet tough guy talk, then quickly moved to threatening to come to my house and kill me and my family. He posted my address on line and told me he'd be waiting for me when I least expected it. It was quite funny, some people loose their shit over the dumbest things. Don't know if the guy ever got the help he needed.
  3. One of things you could do is go to Metal Archives. Go to Advanced Search. Under the Search Bands tab put speed metal in the the Genre box. Hit Preform Search and you'll get 3114 bands that fit the criteria. When you're done there you can do something like speed/thrash death/speed etc and you'll find some more.
  4. Metal doesn't need genres, people need genres.
  5. The Screaming Jets - All For One (RIP Paul)
  6. I wasn't listening to them to please you I was just going for three in a row.
  7. Dammit Thatguy I wanted three in a row 😜 Flots - S/T
  8. Evidence means nothing in court these days. Government departments have been recording calls since the 80's, they've had CCVT footage since the 90's. Yet people still cause problems. If it became a system where people had to go to court to get their services reinstated there would a whole bunch of government hating lawyers all tying up the system with stupid cases that solve nothing. There is already a shit load of court cases happening around the country against government departments for people who feel they've been wronged, that would spiral out of control if the government was suddenly able to make up their own rules and hit people where it hurts. There is no easy answer to any of this. Sure the government is rotten from the top down, but it's not the entire government, therefore just getting rid of top tier staff isn't going to solve anything. Even if the the could weed out the shit, many of those would have to be replaced, a time consuming and expensive task. It's also a task that is doomed to repeat it's own history because employment of managers in government departments is so poorly handled under most circumstances. Then at the very bottom of the pit is abusive and threatening customers. Such customers have risen something like 55% since the pandemic and when you're dealing with 10K or more calls a day that's a lot of grumpy people abusing staff. Again it's not all the customers but they can't just get rid of the problem ones. Somewhere in the middle there is a bunch of grunts working to solve problems they can't solve in 5 minutes and get sick of being abused just because someone had to wait on hold for 30 minutes. There will of course be a percentage will be dead weight or workers shit at their job, in the middle too, that goes without saying, but no rule change can fix those all those issues. Maybe it would be nice if someone tried, but it's not going to happen while the system is working, even if it's working badly.
  9. The lyrics didn't do blow up Rosie justice. The stage Rosie was all tits and it always seemed like the tits blew up first.
  10. Government might make the laws but they still have to be sensible and fair, cutting someone off from government services isn't like stopping a kid from going on a school excursion. There can be real world ramifications from cutting services to people the government doesn't like. Not to mention that there is always two sides to every story, he said she said stories would fill the courts in no time as people used the free legal system to fight cases that shouldn't even go to court.
  11. Centerlink tried sanctions on people about 2 decades ago and it was deemed illegal so I don't know that any government department would be allowed to actually do it. For some it would definitely work, shit for some just being told to fuck off and calm the fuck down might actually work but again governments just wouldn't allow such things. Entitlement is something people from all walks of life have. It's not always the same entitlement, often it's vastly different but it exists everywhere and that makes it harder for all humans to get along. I've seen CEO's with it, I've seen mid level workers with it, I've seen shit kickers with it. We're all humans, we all have it to some degree, even those who deny having it, and we all let it escape when it suits us. I don't think there is one group who displays it worse than another, but there is definitely people who display it worse than others.
  12. You still haven't solved the biggest problem of them all. Some people are just cunts. If people stopped being so fucking entitled, stop treating other people like shit and started being reasonable improvements that you mention could not just be implemented but may even have a chance of working.
  13. I stalk lots of forums. Finding someone to follow is purely entertainment.
