I really can't deal with this right now, and I don't exactly know what to say to the person. You don't. Because if you know about it they're looking for attention/validation. If you've genuinely got nothing left to live for then you don't really care for anyone else's contribution on the matter and you're not going to talk about it. We've talked about suicide on here before. I stand by the stance that it's a selfish and immature act. There's a difference between feeling suicidal and actually being ready/wanting to take your own life. If they're talking about it, then chances are they won't go through with it, but that doesn't mean that they aren't in a dark, scary place. They just want someone to listen and understand. There's nothing attention seeking about it, and when you say things like that you're driving people who are already feeling alone and isolated to be even further away. Good post. ...no sure if you're being serious? I was just speaking from experience.

Am I the only person wondering why Foxtel needs an "End of financial year sale"? Exactly what do they have to do stocktake of? How many snookies they have in storage? If there's actually any music left on MTV? What?

Fuck that EOFYS ad was annoyingly catchy. :x :x :lol: I found myself whistling it all the time. #-o #-o

Be sure to wear your scummiest indie-hipster-douchebag clothing and you'll be fine.

I think it's the elitist attitude that comes with it.

If I'm honest, Banana Alley isn't the kind of place I'd want to be after dark.

Edited by iridium1010: 8/7/2013 02:09:58 AM I'm not a massive Ice Hockey fan, but the standard of the league isn't bad considering it's only been around for 13 years.

The two were arguing in Indian the other night, and that's when the guy said my supervisor threatened to shoot him with a gun, conveniently in another language so know one know what was actually said. The guy is a massive asshole in any case. I don't like my supervisor, but he's not as bad as he used to be, and he seems like a nice guy outside of work. But this other guys has a reputation for being a douche. He's the type of guy who stays behind for five minutes after work has finished and holds up everyone else, just so he can wait till after midnight to clock off and then get paid a bit more money for 'working overtime'. Apparently he's a really slow worker and always argues with the manager and when they tell him he isn't working enough. Has had massive arguments with every night-fill captain they've had since he's been there, apparently.

I've had a similar thing happen in a kitchen in a venue I used to work in. Threats were made in another language, cops got involved but it was a case of "he said she said". The owners made it a fireable offence if you were caught conversing in another language on multiple occasions.

Given the F1 thread doesn't get much use, apart from the F1 and that's when I've gotten around to watching the races, I can turn it into a 'Motorsport' general thread if you want.

I think instead of having league threads we should turn them into sport threads.
