Yes, I am) and say it's faulty but when pressed for a report of the supposed faults get nothing back.

basically they have decided to stick their head in the sand and hope I go away. HA!




Oh and people who use brackets too much in their sentences....

Soccer Dads in Kia Carnivals that think they is the Shizzle.

Although, I can understand he'd have felt small next to my Old YELLA.
Maybe a little intimidated by it... Or a bit more than a little.

But intimidation by turning on lights, tailgating, then speeding off while swerving left to right through the traffic, sort of proves the smallness thing... :rolleyes:

Perth chicks are probably the best looking and the most prolific than anywhere else in the country. Perth is worth the effort!!!!

the fact that athletes get banned for using stereoids but no one complains when the wd-40 is out at the paralympics. :

The closer you get to the water in Perth, the less substance the chicks have. Its like they're empty shells, no personality and shallow. (well most of them anyway)

People of parental level that give snide & indirect opinions on they parented back in the day.
When will they learn its 2008, not 1978!
The ones that are childless and give/tell you grind me even worse!!!!!!!!!

I live in the northwest and I'm seeing a Perth girl. Also lived in BrisVegas, Sunny Coast, Central Queensland, Melbourne.

If you want nice relaxed, down to earth, good value girls try country Vic/NSW.

However Perth is Australia's No.1 location for single, hot, desperate women.

i have no problem with that statement,
i disagree that 99% of perth blokes wear flannos and have stubble...
and by the sounds of it, you are earning good money (if your in northwest WA, im assuming your in the mining industry) hence women would be willing to forego their flanno and stubble aversion as you would be flush with cash
which points to the materialism of perth chicks, which grinds my gears

wgmgs are guys that bunch all women in the same basket.

I can tell you all now that I have never taken a guy for what he has. I'm paying for an XR8 I don't have, haven't seen it since 2006!!
Have a houseful of stuff I've paid for myself. Not some poor unsuspecting bloke that is C*&t struck...

And wgmg are men that have no drive in life. No get up and go. Men that just want to laze around the house and watch sport on tv or play around with their cars without actually fitting anything new... dreamers basically!! lol

OMFG I just had another one to add;

Phone calls from telemarketers trying to sell you something. Just had a bloke telling me they were sending me an LG phone because "it will help you save your money and you can save money". Couldn't understand most of what they were spouting at me.

I got transferred to another guy, I'd had enough and hung up on him. I get an immediate callback...same indian accent.

"Did you hang up on me?!?! You have no manners sir" which I found quite amusing. Confused dialogue ensued and I decided I'd let him know that to avoid wasting his time any further to NOT call me back at a later date...he got even more worked up and called me rude again, to which I replied "If you do not like your job I suggest you find another one".

This next bit was great. He responds with..."...SHADDUP! BYE BYE" and hangs up.

I actually had a good laugh at it with my housemate but jeez...we're adding our number to the national Do Not Call register...though I think it only works for Oz callers, not Mumbai etc.

I used to get about 1 a week. You just start stuffing around with them. Interupt them and ask what they are doing on the weekend, talk in another language, heavy breath into the phone etc.

Perana for PM! Totally agree :

But also hate people why lie, people why get everything handed to them, pretty boys, and people who brag about their "fast" 14 second car that wipes out every other car on the road
