That sounds rather anomalous, whereas Melbourne is infamous for its chaotic weather. TBH I hated Melbourne and couldn't wait to leave.

There is no doubting Melbourne's shit whether is more regular than most other capitals expect Hobart, (and Darwin in the wet season) but it's not as bad as most people make it out to be. Melbournians know it's going to be fucking cold and adapt, the rest of the world comes here knowing it's going to be cold and wet then complains when it is. But that's fair I know a lot of Victorians who go to QLD and WA and bitch that it's going to be hot.

I only liked Melbourne for it's music scene and I don't care what people say, the music scene today is not a shadow of what it was 30 years ago. I lived there for work and money and that's it. I wouldn't go back to either Melb or Sydney to live.

I'm fundamentally just not much of a city dwelling type and the urban areas are all I got to see in Melbourne. So many fucking people, and that ties into why Melbourne's weather bothered me because I went there for basically a skateboarding trip and the random weather was just a cunt to deal with lmao.

I can relate to that. I hate people! I get pissed off at the shops if there is three people in the same aisle I want to be in, being in the city where there is a hundred people who all want to be in the same spot you are sucks big time. I'm not a football person but I learnt the hip and shoulder tackle at a young age, by the time I was 6 foot 3 I realised that I was actually dangerous in the city because I wanted to push every prick off the footpath and into on coming traffic. If I never have to go back to the city I will be happy.

However you must have just chosen the wrong time of year to skateboard

We had no choice, the trip's plan was based around a big skateboarding event the city puts on every year. I would have preferred to have driven cheaply around the country myself.

The whole west coast of the US is on fire so whatever. The world sucks.

Oh well that comes down to the stupid people who organised it! Never ceases to amaze me how many stupid people organise shit for bad weather in this state. I've worked country music festivals in August, the windiest and wettest time of the year but some fuckwit thought it was a good idea to 'risk' the weather.

We got to skate majority of the day, but it would randomly rain for an hour or so and then clear up and this would happen a few times a day.

 

[Slammed]

You do realise we make that happen for tourists

 

[CiG]

Makes sense, fucking tourists and the shitty tourist cities that fap over them.

Payback was delivered though. Melbourne lost first place for the "most liveable city" this year.

 

[CiG]

I didn't even know it had that accolade.

 

[Slammed]

It's something like 7 years in a row and not out of the top 10 since the competition started. Venice won it this year.

 

[CiG]

Wow, and here I thought the place stunk on ice. The more you know I guess.

 

[Slammed]

Ya gotta hold ya nose in every city at some stage!

 

[CiG]

I just can't deal with city life honestly. Looking up at the sky and seeing buildings just bothers me.

 

[Slammed]

Totally agree. I like the sky, I like being able to see the stars and I like being able to walk outside and not hear fuckwits racing their cars around residential streets.

Meanwhile, this is my view from home. Until I got a blackout blind for my bedroom it was like there was a full moon every night. On the upside about 96% of the live shows I go to in this city are within walking distance.

 

[Slammed]

That would bug the shit out of me. I get the shits up when the council fix the street light across the road.
