Nerazzurro Down Under

Oh yes. Very normal.

That's right. Perfectly normal. Don't ask questions if you know what's good for you

I'm working near Canberra at the moment and it seemed to do something similar at around 7pm.

Canberra

How the heck did the temperature in Melbourne drop 20 degrees in an hour today? Is that a normal thing?

Right now it's completely black and orange outside, the temperature has plummeted and the thunder is shaking the office. 2Pacalypse Now.

Ahhh Canberra. The capital of our great nation and home to our politicians. Also, the only Australian city that selling over-the-counter porn & fireworks is legal.

Yes Fitz, your 'working' near Canberra...

Canberra

Actually found a couple of good restaurants. Also, my company is paying, which makes me happy.

Actually was thinking of stopping in at Fyshwick tonight

Please elaborate on this. I mean, it sounds normal, so actually I'm curious about how it works in other Australian cities

firmino scoping out his favorite porn vendors ahead of his trip to Aus

I have no idea actually. I've never paid for porn in my life. I've also heard that you can grow weed in Canberra? That might be some high school urban legend bs.

[Fitzy]

They legalised cannabis recently.

The rest of cities sell it under the counter.

A long long time ago before internet was invented for the sole purpose of porn & football forums, it was illegal to distribute porn in Australia outside of Canberra. Why Canberra exactly ? I don't know. Of course porn was still bootlegged to fullfill every Aussie's raging voyeurism.

I guess these laws have been lifted today. There are sex 'shops' all over the place. Uni has a platinum membership.

I got an automobile related question for you knobs:

Why do my right side tires (particularly the front right) wear out and go flat much quicker than the other tires?

It’s been like that for ages. I got my rego + servicing done this morning. They checked wheel alignment and tested for a leak etc but there’s seemingly no problem.

I fill all 4 of my tires to 34 psi. I go to refill them maybe 2 months later. In that time, I find the left side two have lost a normal amount of pressure and measure in at 31 psi. The rear right will have dropped to 27. And the fucking front right tire will have dropped to a ludicrous 18 psi...??? On top of that, the front right is visibly more Spalletti (bald) than the others. The fuck is going on?

As mentioned, unless my mechanic is flat-out incompetent or lying to me for some inexplicable reason, there’s nothing discernible showing up when I get my car serviced. That’s even with a specific search for alignment issues and leaks.

Oh and if anyone isn’t from aus, Australian cars have the steering wheel on the right side, so it’s the tire closest to the drivers seat. But it’s not like I’m a 200kg fat cunt

[Wobblz]

I've never had a car or understand all that much about cars in general but it sounds logical for your suspension to be shot.

Are you always driving the same route? It might be that the route you drive just has turns that that use the right side more. Not sure if you get what i mean but that would be the only explanation i could come up with other then your mechanic is incompetent. Only other reasoning that comes to mind is that your breaks on the right side are stronger than the ones on the left , but i guess you d relize that as the car would not keep straight when you break hard.

[Universe]

Don't think it's suspension. Don't think it's turning right too much either lol.

Had a word with a dude who is exceptionally knowledgeable about cars and he's adamant there's a leak. Says that in his experience, mechanics are always on the clock to get through all the cars so their tests are never as thorough as you'd like. Adamant there's a very small leak which wasn't found in the servicing. No idea how I'm gonna verify that and annoying considering my tires are pretty new, but the fuck else can I do. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'll turn this negative into a positive and I will indirectly fund our January transfer market by purchasing Pirelli tires at my local TyrePower.

RIP Pim Verbeek.

How you guys hanging down there? Any updates on the fire? Hope you cunts are safe.

Something like that has happened to me, to one tyre. Except in my case I'm sure of it because the tyre dealer himself explained that a very small leak was the issue.

The tyre would partially deflate in one week or so, and it was only that tyre.

I'm not saying that's the case for you but it certainly is a possibility.

Though it's peculiar that it happens to you to 2 tyres.

[Fitzy]

Looks like the Apocalypse outside at the moment.

Ange wins the J-League. Top achievement. By the sound of it, it took a year or so to implement his philosophy but he got it done. First Aussie coach to win a foreign league. Hopefully other coaches can follow him.

[Candreva Crosses]

Fucking hilarious
