As a proud resident of Melbourne, I am so proud of Karen from Finance.

I agree with pretty much all of this

2. Detox's "weird" feels dated to me. It's like 90s club kid weirdness except not actually because Ru is that.

Somewhat charmingly, Kangaskhan is regional to Australia.

That's actually fascinating. I have a stationary bike that I try to do when there's no way for me to get out but since I got sick I've lost a ton of muscle mass from being so sedentary and my resistance and stamina are not where they should be. I don't ever think I'll be run-a-marathon fit but I'd just like to be more…

Genuinely thank you! I didn't know this was a thing. I have a chronic illness that keeps me housebound part of the time so I guess I technically do not meet the definition of a "healthy adult," but I would like to do a little more on my good days so this gives me something to shoot for

It was clearly an error because the nest was removed and it was like a community event, everyone knew. Last I saw all the gyms around here are still run entirely by Dragonites though

Are there like actual numbers for this because I am pretty sedentary and I would like to move up the scale to maybe higher end of low-active, but I want to know what I'm committing to

I wonder if they followed the Ekans and Arbok rule in other languages too or if they went in a different direction with those

"…wandering into the bad part of town…"

Just eyeballing it I'm pretty sure it literally means "strong beetle," but it sounds cool

France, I believe

What city were you in?
Pot has been decriminalised for personal use in a lot of states here and some of them interpret "personal use" pretty liberally but that still doesn't feel like a typical 'Straya anecdote.

I went to Melbourne Uni with a girl who rode a unicycle while playing the ukulele. Down Swanston Street to the train station. One of the songs in her repertoire was memorably "Ignition (Remix)."

I agree, I think there's a difference between movies with dream sequences and "…and then they woke up and it was all a dream" movies (like Inception and Oz).

Knxwledge and Anderson .Paak's NxWorries album "Yes Lawd" drops on the 21st and the tracks out so far are pretty solid, if that kind of thing is your speed.

"As smart as her breasts look"?

Someone else already said so upthread but I appreciate your insights and perspectives in this post, they're very interesting.

This is why it's so hard to explain to people that racial lines are different in different countries, even between countries that have ostensibly the "same" visible racial makeup. I've lived in both Australia and the US, both (former) British colonies that are majority white with many of the same racial minorities,…

I agree. The internet fandom is out for blood because of it though, I don't make a habit of hanging out on Reddit but I did peek in today and the vitriol was kind of insane. I think it might cost her the title.
