I just realised that there is an awful lot of bedroom eyes going on throughout those ads. Also some bat-shit-insane eyes going on as well…

The person in the red, do they identify as a male or a female, or neither? Very confusing.

TOTALLY!!! All I can hear in my head is a high pitch “hey boyssssss”

Has anyone had the wings at tippler’s tap before? I’m on a mission to find buffalo wings like they do in america, and this is the first stop on my list.
Next stop is the Yard Bird.

Wings!

south bank has an american diner, carolina kitchen in coorparoo is supposed to be good

Yep, with the blue cheese dipping sauce.

NFI how they compare to what the states produce as I’ve not been there, but the buffalo wings are bought everytime I am at Tipplers.

ask for sean at tipplers, he’s #kent affiliated

also, carl from tiptap bought my vertex track frame a few weeks ago. mate of gbannermans i think.

Just sorted him with Dura Ace and Nitto parts. Gunna be a sweet build! He’s an absolute legend, got a few nice builds in his stable.

:wink: good times for all!

Thought about posting this in the small joys thread but would probably get buried under someone else’s bullshit.

I won the elimination and got given second place prize money… Let it slide cos the kid who came second sat on the front for pretty much the whole race

This morning I woke up at 3, yelling after a particularly strange nightmare where I died. Then I went to go riding and my heart rate monitor wouldn’t register and I wondered…am I actually dead?
I kissed my wife goodbye and she didn’t move. Again, same thing. So, I jabbed her in the ribs and she screamed in my ear and took a swing at me…All good. I’m alive!
