Man, the secondhand market for IH is full of ruthless sharks. haha
They get testy, too, when you don't accept their offers of $110 dollars for a shirt.

The second hand market for denim in general is a bit crap these days.

Monday - tying my Tricker's, lace snapped.

Thursday: tying my Viberg's, lace snapped.

Fuck you December, fuck you…

Seul, just let the laces snap, you don't need to.

Suburbia has to be the worst idea ever. It's great for nuclear warfare, televangelists, fast food, and car dealerships… But not very good for much else!

Packages usually take about 3 days to get to me from Japan via EMS. However, my new Seiko has now been in customs for 5 days. Wtf…

Bit of news yesterday: the bakery that delivers our bread and pasteries every day is broke. We're now back to using the previous company, but because of the very sudden transfer (less than 12hour notice), it's not going smooth.

Fuck you, December… Fuck you...

Before moving here, "PM" meant "private message"

Now, when I think of "PM" I think " powdery mildew"

Google have still failed to ship my phone. I've just been having a chat to one of their customer support minions, and apparently my order has gone to the warehouse for fulfilment, but no delivery dates have been given.

Interestingly enough, they're not levying GST on the sale, which is a pain as I'm registered for the tax and so could claim it back. I think that it's because:

Google don't like paying tax at all.
The sale is being booked through their Singapore tentacle, and so is effectively a personal import into Australia.

However, due to the "Australia Tax" that companies levy, the cost of a Nexus 6P with 128 GB of memory is $1099, and the tax free limit for imports is $1000. That means the phone should be liable for duties and GST when it lands.

So either Google have been badly advised, or they're trying to pull a fast one.

I would suggest the latter!

I know one person who hated it and eight people (including myself) who thoroughly enjoyed it.

It was so good. Everything I wanted out of a movie, and definitely worthy of the name Star Wars.

I thought it was thoroughly entertaining, captured the feeling of Star Wars far better than any of the last trilogy, but if you think about the story too much you will realise it was utter shit really. Entertaining shit.

Episode 7 is a good Disney-Movie. Besides 1 annoying character it´s a nice and entertaining movie. Much much better than Episode 1-3.

Thoughts match mine almost identically. WAY to similar story to Ep IV.

enjoyed it for what it was. walked away thinking Carrie Fisher and Harrison Ford just wanted one more movie before they died.
