11:40:13 Nick: wrath-OUT is now known as wrath
17:34:42 <Akron> werd
17:35:57 <damian> letter
17:37:12 <Akron> A
17:37:14 <Akron> colour
17:37:15 <Akron> Blue
17:37:18 <Akron> :)
17:37:56 <shaft> Colour me red, and I'll go faser.
17:45:18 <Akron> my wife just spent another $1000 at ikea
17:45:24 <Akron> and this kitchen was meant to be cheap !
17:45:57 <shaft> errr ikea IS relatively cheap, wtf did she buy?
17:46:22 <Akron> a cupboard door, since she forgot that last time, plus 2 side panels she forgot... and a island bench
17:46:34 <Akron> i think the whole new kitchen would have cost us about $5k which isnt too bad
17:46:39 <Akron> plus the new stove at about $2k
17:46:55 <shaft> man, don't get a new stove, really
17:47:04 <shaft> get one at graysonline.com
17:47:08 <shaft> I worked there
17:47:36 <shaft> smeg, omega, good shit, most with nothing or nearly nothing wrong going dirt cheap
17:47:47 <Akron> we got an omega already
17:48:04 <shaft> $2k wall ovens go for a $2-3oo
17:48:12 <Akron> the one we got was selling on grays online for about $2500 when i was looking
17:48:26 <Akron> and they didnt have them very often
17:48:29 <shaft> pft, musta been brand new
17:48:37 <Akron> prob...
17:48:38 <shaft> whitegoods was my job thee
17:48:55 <shaft> my stuff was factory seconds, nd it was cheap as
17:48:56 <Akron> we got our taps and stuff from here
17:49:12 <shaft> and thre was seriously nothing wrong with some of it
17:49:32 <Akron> the plumber thought i was joking when i said we paid $30 for a mixer tap that you could pull out as an extension sprinkler thingy
17:49:50 <Akron> we looked it up and it was worth $450 for a fucking tap!
17:49:59 <shaft> yep
17:50:26 <shaft> ex-lease late model puters go cheap there too
17:50:30 <shaft> heaps of stuff
17:50:43 <Akron> im going to have to buy a box of mixed wine
17:50:50 <Akron> because we now have a wine rack in our kitchen
17:50:54 <Akron> so i guess i need to fill it
17:51:10 <shaft> the commission and sending is the bad bit
17:52:25 <shaft> but, 10% commision on $30 is $3, you still win .. plus maybe $20 courier
17:53:20 <shaft> I never paid much attention to that, we weren't allowed to buy it :/
17:53:57 <Akron> yer the commission is pretty steap
17:54:21 <Akron> i think i got the mixer tap and a new shower head (a huge one worth $700) posted for $85
17:55:08 <shaft> commission is how they make money, and they make a LOT of money
17:55:25 <shaft> $10M turnover a month last I heard
17:55:49 <Akron> nice little business
17:56:06 <shaft> they're the largest or 2nd largest wine retailer in the country
17:56:06 <Akron> ex lease computers though, wouldnt they be >3 years old ?
17:56:37 <shaft> rarely as old as that ... usually 1 or 2
17:57:15 <shaft> some companies upgrade as fast as they can
17:57:59 <Akron> i work for the stinggy state government, we have a 3 year change but we dont lease anymore
17:58:06 <shaft> come to think of it, I could upgrade this lappy if I wanted ...
18:06:15 <shaft> I wonder how many of the new school puters are lost, sold, stolen, trashed or landfill already ...
18:17:17 <Akron> my mates brother has one and the screen broke because of the cover
18:17:27 <Akron> he said 80% of his years screens has broken
18:17:50 <shaft> afaik they got cheap shite
18:18:05 <shaft> or was it cheap netbooks? can't remember
18:18:49 <shaft> I always thought it was one of the dumbest ideas I'd ever heard
18:20:20 <Akron> nar they are notebook cheap shit though
18:21:00 <WebbY> more government fail

18:54:37 <shaft> absentee vote, dude. I've done it often.
18:56:34 <WebbY> for krudd
18:57:47 <Akron> wrong election.
18:57:52 <Akron> this is a state government issue
19:23:21 <shaft> state govt? oh they're out next election, no contest
19:23:47 <shaft> but actually it's funded by the feds, isn't it?
19:24:32 <shaft> The state govts are just taking most of the moolah and getting cheapshit notebooks for the kids
19:25:27 <Akron> i am the state government
19:25:58 <Akron> the man the other day told me, when i was issuing him an infringement
19:27:40 <shaft> he was right.
19:28:04 <Akron> excellent
19:28:14 <shaft> I've abused parking inspectors. They're the state (or local) govt. too.
19:28:20 <Akron> i look forward to seeing him in court
19:28:35 <Akron> as he is going to claim lightning started the fire
19:28:54 <shaft> how do you know it didn't?
19:29:03 <Akron> lightning tracking data :)
19:29:10 <shaft> ah.
19:29:28 <shaft> throw the book at the fucker, then
19:29:30 <Akron> only strike recoded anywhere near that time was over 100km
19:32:06 <shaft> I found a fire once, minutes after some fuckwit lit it
19:32:13 <shaft> I stomped it out
19:32:52 <Akron> did you call the coppas
19:33:24 <shaft> I was deep in the bush ... should I have?
19:33:40 <Akron> yesm
19:33:49 <Akron> coz they give people like me a call
19:33:50 <shaft> It just didn't occur to me
19:33:52 <Akron> and then i get overtime
19:33:53 <Akron> :)
