The Whining and Bitching Thread

[Slammed]

Googling gets me nothing on that story but I’ll take your word for it.

I’m aware greenies and hippies in general are an annoyance and mindless eco preservation is stupid but I didn’t think these people had any say in forest management.

The news story about the protesters stopping fire efforts was actually on Prime news.
Having a say and protesting governments until they act are not really the same thing but they may as well be. From Bairnsdale to Orbost there is a shit load of tracks that the green groups were able to convince the state government were in threat of damage because of motorbike riders and 4wders. Now they did have a point some of those people treat the bush like shit, they ruin the tracks and they make new tracks wherever the hell they like, but the majority are decent people and there is now padlocks on many of the tracks. I believe the Toolangi state forest is the same. We've even been warned off chasing our own cattle from one state forest because one of the local 'environmentalists' saw us and dobbed us into The Dept Of Sparks and Embers (or whatever they call them selves this week). We told the guy what we were doing and that the cattle had been spooked by something, possibly a fox, and bolted at the fence. We told him we were only retrieving the cattle then fixing the fence. The guy agreed with what we were doing but admitted his hands were tied, the complaint went through official channels and he had to come out, warn us and tell us that should it happen again we are suppose to ring the department to have someone present, at our cost, to make sure we don't ruin the environment. So yeah they may not have any official say in what happens but no government at the moment is crave enough to go against the green lobby.

The Greens are fucking spastics. I voted for them at the top of the card once as a troll, I usually vote for the Christian Party or whatever.

I think it showed just how ridiculous the Greens are a few years ago when the only Greens politician who got voted in was from an Inner city Melb electorate where trees and plants only grow on high rise balconies and in wardrobes under warm lights.

The Greens mostly appeal to urbanites and suburbanites, that's no surprise.

Exactly, people who have no real idea of preserving the bush but live in a concrete jungle and feel guilty about it.

Fair enough, and if greenies were actually hampering firies then they should be locked up.

 

[Slammed]

They should be locked up when they chain themselves to dozers. They should be locked up when they chain themselves to trucks. They should be locked up when they chain themselves to trees. And they should be locked up whenever their protest hampers whatever it is they are protesting. As with any group there is good and bad in them all and the rapid fuckwits of them should all be locked up.

The greenies aren't the only ones to blame, people themselves deserve a portion of the blame. So many people moved back into fire effected areas and replanted the jungles they had around them before the fires then put in a sprinkler system and figured they'd be safe. Sure there was rules dropped by the RC that changed the way some councils authorised permits but once the houses were built councils didn't give a shit. I guarantee that if we had another person light a fire in the same place as the cunt lit the Black Saturday fires here the damage will be as severe or worse because people have not learnt from their mistakes. From reports I've heard areas up around Kinglake and further north are the same.

Like I've said, I feel for anyone who has lost anything in any of the fires but there is rarely only one person/group to blame.

My brain is broken
For some reason I can't fucking remember how to post a fucking YouTube video right now
I'll make a video when I can remember how to do it
Or when Arctix gets back to me
Which ever comes first

Finally got a job offer after a year and a half off and not so much as a single interview was offered. Took having a friend there get me an interview- lo and behold I did well and got the offer. Seems like the world runs on nepotism rather than actual qualifications. Shit is fucked up. The job is back office support for financial advisers at a major bank. Pay is good and it's supposedly low stress most of the time, but back on the shitty commute and I really hate having to go to the city...

Ready to get this court bullshit out of the way so I can pay a god damn speeding ticket.

You can't pay online / by mail?

Id rather go to court for this one. It was in a construction zone and a state trooper got me. I have a clean record, and he suggested I should go and let the judge decide.

 

[Slammed]

If you want a character reference just ask. I'll write a glowing reference explaining that you're a psychopath, serial killer in the making and pathological liar. I'll recommend nothing less than 10 years.

Cool! I cant wait til they find my internet profiles and confuse Manic Ferocity with me

You will be sharing a cell with him
