Mad respect to the mum who looked about 10 months pregnant juggling a 4 year old and a toddler in this heart! I struggle with 1 toddler.
To the older couple waiting in line to do a passport: fuck right off. Your both obviously retired you dont have to do it at lunch time. More over the point your not gonna get it this side of 2024 so why leave it till late december? wish aus post had've said "sorry there is an entire queue of people trying to ship christmas presents, kindly piss off till january, or at least not doing peak hours!"
to the lady having a bitch: Yes, lines suck. Yes its annoying that you had to come collect it. No I dont care that its medical weed. We're all stuck here together so shut the f up!
To the mum who named her kid Malibu. WHY? Did you not think how that was gonna sound when they are a 5 year old and not listening to you? "Malllllibuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu". Its almost worse than that raefarty post on the other site a couple of weeks back.
Love chrismas but it brings out the worst in some people I swear.

😂😂😂 What is it with some people and medical cannabis? When I was still going to an indie MC pharmacy (they markup by 40% so I go to amcal instead now lol) there was a woman in there losing her fucking miiiiiiind about the availability of her particular flower script. Like, the po-po were called because she was making suuuuch a bloody ruckus. And of course, her car starts to get towed because it's 4pm on Sydney Road on a weekday, and the tow trucks wait in the side streets for the hour to tick over and nab up everyone who doesn't know 😂 so she's losing her fucking mind, the po-po are on the way, and I had to tap her on the shoulder and go "um I think your car's being towed". She put Usain Bolt to shame with how fast she got outside and into the face of the tow truck driver.
But it got her out of the shop, so the five other customers and myself could be served finally 😂
Sorry for the wall of text, your point number 3 just reminded me of that silly memory 😂
Also Xmas makes everyone stupid at the shops, plus the hot weather, people's brains have fucking melted lol. I hate it so much.
Haha yep. Sorry for detailing, I just had forgotten that happened until I read your post lol! She was wild. I've seen her around since, so she's at least local of Merri Bek Council lol
I'm related (by marriage) to potheads that are super high strung when not stoned. I know that weed isn't really physically addictive, but the psychological addiction in their case bad. Like bad, bad.
It definitely causes some pretty bad physical withdrawal symptoms if you're an all day every day smoker like I used to be. Sweating, agitation, inability to sleep, feeling very tense physically. It's not pleasant at all.
God yes. They say it isn't addictive, but it certainly is psychologically at least. And when some people go without, the withdrawal assholery is next level
Ikr! That's how it works for me, chills me out so flashbacks are less intense and I can sleep at night lol. Means I can study, hang out with mates, engage with some hobbies, without feeling constantly exhausted and beaten.
Then there's some people who are just, such stereotypes. They lack the self awareness to see it too. Maybe they're gaming the system, maybe not, but they're just cunts no matter what.
Hmm that would have been a real dilemma. Don’t tell her about the car and let karma do its thing, or rid yourself of her presence by telling her about it so she leaves the shop. I dunno, I may have just stuck it out and let the car get towed.
and I bet Malibu was named after the booze, not the place
Oh god I didnt even think of that!
"Mummy why am I called Malibu?" "Well one night I got loaded off the stuff and your daddy decided to sneak one in at the back of the houseparty before he drove home drunk. And THATS why I named your after booze.
One of the worst is when you're behind them when doing grocery shopping.
I got stuck at Aldi behind someone and by the time they had paid and sorted their stuff out, aisle next to me had been through an entire rotation or 2 of people at the cashier while were stuck with one elderly person.
Yeah Aldi is not the place to take your time at the register.
At the same time, Aldi is 100% the place that you will encounter unnecessary delays.
A while back at Woolies, going through the self checkout, the cashier was asking (mostly the older customers) if they're paying cash or card, so they can be directed to the correct checkout. One older bloke waved her off and went to a card only one.....but he was paying cash. The of course made it her problem (she was super patient and accommodating) and tried raising a bit of a stink.
I ended up backing her up and telling him (loudly so everyone heard) that she's only trying to help and he should probably listen so he won't be holding up the rest of the shoppers.
He was very sheepish after that, but would not look at me at all 😁
Yep! Buggers have got betwen 9-12 to get stuff done, and then again 2-5. Not in anyones way, no stress if you make a mistake or something. Like. WHY do it now during lunch time? just dumb.
Its not an issue if your not pottering around. but if your struggling a bit, or if you wanna have a chat to the person its totally fine just please dont hold everyone else up.
