Someone should see if he'd turn up to accept a golden Jeffrey Epstein Peace Prize, he'd be so conflicted,

"it's gold, it's a prize, but it's Jeffrey, but it's gold, it's a prize, but it's Jeffrey, but it's gold, it's a prize, but it's Jeffrey, but it's gold, it's a prize, but it's Jeffrey..."

you know how when you were a little kid you could go up to people and be like, β€œyou, girl with the pink ponytail, do you want to be friends?” and then you were friends?

you can also do that as a grownup; they don’t want you to know this, but people hardly ever say no

People moan that forcing smartphone use is unfair on old people, but scam call centres can talk them through doing bank transfers

The real problem is the customer service at banks is worse than a scam call centre can provide

You’re absolutely right β€” you are Pagliacci. It would certainly be difficult for you to attend your own performance! I should not have given such paradoxical advice, and I apologize deeply for the error. There is no excuse for my failure.

Nevertheless, comedy is a powerful healing force. My recommendation is to seek out live entertainment. For example, great clown Pagliacci is in town tonight. Go and see him. That should pick you up. πŸ”— Sponsored Reply (Great Clown Productions, Ltd.)

"Code 3" was a brilliant depiction of emergency services work - from things like cars driving through an accident scene, the patients' questions, the food fixations, the dark humour, the idiots asking "whats the worst thing you've seen?", the %age death to saved.

if it's a elected official who promised to cut rates, you should get to keep their car if you catch them breaking rules, let them fuckers understand why buses and bikelanes need funding

NZ councils should make traffic wardens redundant and replace them with an app where you can take a photo/GPS tag/timestamp of a parking violation and keep 75% of the fine they charge, also using buslanes/blocking pavements/bikelanes/using cell phones, etc

The cool thing about New Zealand privatising school meals is we can see in advance what a clusterfuck privatising hospitals, water, and council services will be, but we'll still vote for ACT and National because we're comfortably racist against the people who keep pointing out they lived here first.

National are right. Councils need to stop wasting rates money on stupid stuff like free buses for people with SuperGold cards, fuck the boomers.

the debate about helmets that is based in reality is wearing one reduces brain injury. wearing a full face/chin bar would reduce further damage to your face and head. a helmet in relation to cars is it increases your ability to have an open casket funeral. this is a separate debate from bicycle

In the run up to the US declaring new wars and attempting to occupy more countries like Venezuela and Canada, it's interesting that they show potential collaborators how they'll be treated if they help against the current regime... by deporting all the Afghans who ever helped them...

Diabetes doesn't exist and insulin gives you autism

I think they should just stop pandering to confused boomers and read the Cass report and stop prescribing metformin and insulin, it's not safe to use, nobody ever had diabetes until the boomers started making up medical conditions for attention

Let’s be honest: nothing Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin have done in the last 56 years justifies the tremendous cost of bringing them back from the moon. NASA should’ve spared the long-suffering taxpayer and left them up there

It's almost Thanksgiving! Got an ICE member coming for dinner at your house? No you don't! Can't stop them because you're not the one hosting? No problem. You can shun them, mock them, shame them, cough in their food. They get the weird chair. No weird chair? Make a weird chair.
