Took the day off today and just did errands.

My opinion of pensioners is getting lower and lower.

Bless some, but the rest....just give up..please

Stop touching the meat in Aldi. Move along. Decide what you want to eat at home. Plan. You got plenty of time.

Also...when you run into someone you know... park your trolleys along the aisle.... NOT PERPENDICULAR

FUCK!!!

they are deciding if they can afford it, looking for the cheapest one ๐Ÿ˜” that is one face of poverty

Why they drive so slow? It can be very frustrating going anywhere in our hood to run errands during business hours.

[โ€“] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 points 4 days ago

so many shouldn't be driving at all

apparently VicRoads doesn't test pensioners, they just renew, no matter the age or ability ๐Ÿคฏ

Good lord I love a life admin sort of day. I took the afternoon off and got my hair done and double check where my money is going and wow it feels good!
