Welcome to the Melbourne Community Daily Discussion Thread.
Bill and Ted update.
Bill Cat wakes up in the morning, slowly yawns, stretches, scratches his ear, licks his tummy, stretches again, stumbles a few feet away, stretches and yawns again. Blinks in the bright sunlight.
Ted Cat. Runs up and down the stairs, checks every single food bowl, vacuums any scraps that may have been left over after dinner, then asks “What’s for breakfast” before running up and down stairs again.
I call my dog Bubba guts. I don’t know why it just seems to suit him. Maybe that’s a good nick name for Ted too.
Are Bill and Ted being excellent to each other?
Ted is like that annoying kid in the back of the car who “innocently” torments their brother.
Bill is all Bring it on.
Ted won’t like this but i’m putting my money on Bill
Edit and we here on the DT NEED more pictures of Ted
edit 2 and Bill
Ted Cat asking for second dinner
spoiler
We’ve had dinner, yes. But what about second dinner?
So Bill harassed Ted into being too afraid to get his dinner, that and Bill wanted what Ted was having. So I gave a little to Bill along with his normal dinner.
Now Ted is eating Bill’s dinner … serves Bill right 😂
Bill went upstairs and ate Ted’s dinner. 😂

I am loving this Bill and Ted adventure :)
edit and the DT will need to need to see them together (when they’re okay with it of course).
That tail is hilarious. Majestic cat in the front poodle at the back.
Cat mullet
It has occurred to me that with the warmth, and now moisture, that certain mushrooms may be springing up in bushland. Not the fatal ones, the fun ones.
subs need cold and damp not warm and damp. The manure species up north prefer it warmer
Still amuses me when looking after hambam the border collie, taking it for a walk at the local park, bunch of kids were trodding through garden beds when the fun mushies were going. I explained to them good luck the council had just sprayed glyphosate over the entire area literally a few days prior and their best bet was to try the lower area where they hadn’t sprayed and was more damp.
They had the GALL to question my mispent youth and left empty handed.
People don’t go to Woodend just to see Hanging Rock.
I have always wanted to try the fun ones lol
I did my due diligence and voted early. While a democracy sausage is great, I just don’t want to deal with people and my chronic pain.
Nothing to stop you from turning up on the day, enjoying a sausage, then going home without actually doing the vote thing. I’m planning on doing this. Voted today too - in and out in less than 5 mins. No brainer imo.
Hahaha, fair!
Where I work is a large rectangular room. It’s me and 2 others. The other 2 aren’t here at the moment.
I sit at the far end, behind me is a wall and behind that are 5 doors - 3 go to toilets, 1 to a meeting room and 1 to a cupboard. There are 2 ways into this office, the front door which leads outside and to the side of it is a door leading upstairs. Both are in front of me.
So, I’m sitting here, on my own when some lady walks in. I’ve never seen her before. But she has a work badge on. She says hello and then disappears into the area behind me where the toilets are.
That was 20 minutes ago.
After about 10 minutes I realised I hadn’t seen her leave or heard any noises and start wondering if I imagined it or what. So I take a look into the hallway. The office is empty. 2 of the three toilet doors are open, no lights on. The cupboard is the cupboard. No way she’s in there. Only place to be is the last door leading to the toilet. But the lights are off so either doing a very peaceful poop or she’s not there.
Also the fans are randomly going off.
So weird.
Gonna need an update when you know more!
Ditto!
She flushed herself to the Ministry of Magic
Spooky
Time for a new book!
Tagline “interdimensional lady goes to the loo, or did she?”.
The Phantom Pooper.
“Flushed Away” feels like it plays better into the mystery imo
It’s like a modern C S Lewis story for adults!
Tbh 20 mins on the loo is not that long for anyone who’s either got digestive issues or is on their phone. I have both and the motion activated lights have gone off on me a few times.

Toilet ghosts.
Dunny Demons.
Skeleton on the dunny
I think its called a Cheuksin. Oh my god, the lady was Madeline Wuntch!
Kanchō (Japanese bum prank).
Maybe she is like one of those people that can’t do a poo unless there is significant soundproofing provided by a couple of doors or distance between the toilet and a communal area. Expect this lady has such poo stagefright that she had to breach a whole different reality/universe.
Trainspotting
There is a secret door. It could be to Narnia .
Have you seen any fauns lately?
Or is hiding from the world in the toilet cubicle….
Holy mcfuck, when it rains it pours, got offered a job I really really want and the pay cut will be minimal. Now I have to go send some, “sorry, but” emails.
Unpopular opinion/confession. I don’t like Disney movies with songs in them. Bah humbug.
Im sorry, but if you dont like Moana that says more about you that it does anything else.
Probably.
Moana is great but the songs are painful. Especially that hoarding turtle song.
Yeah. I don’t live that one, but the We Know the Way and Know Who You Are are both are amazing.
Ugh same. I hated them even when I was a kid. Animated soap operas for kids.
I want to stick a pencil in my ear.
I kind of think 2007’s era disney sucks, due to the fact that it relied heavily on musical related movies.
I get that the movies have themes now I just don’t know why they they have to be sung to me.
Same. There’s something a bit too preachy about them, and I think the songs are mostly bland. I guess the point of them is to be easy for kids and to convey a moral of the story, but I prefer the older style Pixar’s. They have a way more fun and sass in them.
If you’re looking for other kids films, check out Abominable. It’s got music, but no songs.
I’d watch that. I also liked The Secret Life of Pets and the Toy Story Movies.
secret life 2 is worth a watch too.

Anxiety right before work; fighting off a panic attack. I suddenly feel like I’m in real danger of homelessness in the immediate future, related to my apparent inability to get a damn grad role.
Fuck.
Not sure what industry you are in, but the grad role market might pick up in the new year when companies look to hire. However, your priority should be your own welfare and if that means taking a job not in your field so you have income, then do that. I’ve known grads that have had unrelated jobs initially but gone on to find work in their chosen fields, as long as it’s not too long between graduating and grad role.
I just want to say the shoes I bought a few months ago (asics something or rather) just inspires confidence on melbourne’s wet bluestone. These things stick to the ground it’s amazing.
Just knowing you’re not ending up on the ground is an amazing feeling.
I used to wear Docs and the grip on the particular model I had let me walk up a slope of wet concrete
Asics gel kyano? They’re great shoes.
Just woke from a nap… Had the windows open so had lovely rain noise to lull me to sleep. Would recommend.
I didn’t get through the first syllable of “Kelpie would you like to come in?” before he was already inside, sitting on his bed and looking at me wondering why I had the door open talking to no one.
Kelpies do tend to move faster than the speed of light
Mine can when he diverts power to hyperdrive, but he is a farm fail cause he’s far more chill and cuddley than he is task orientated.
Mr Woof really wants a morning walk. I’ve tried explaining about wind and showed him the rain radar, but he just doesn’t understand.
Went back to the gym for the first time in six months yesterday on account of an injury. Didn’t really go that hard but nonetheless muscles still feeling it today.
Someone motivate me to continue painting. Please. I want to but I don’t want to set it all up. Haha.
do some pencil sketches you can paint later 👍
I feel you. It might not be your cup of tea - but if you get Procreate Pocket or an android alternative you can get ideas down on your phone without having to set up or pack anything away.
Ps. To my knowledge Procreate/Pocket is only available for iPad or iPhone so don’t try to download it for android. You’ll likely be downloading a scammy virus
Infinite Painter is a great option on Android.
Yeah I think that’s the one I was trying to remember
I’m so glad I chose not to walk to the shops. Also fucking petrol!$$$$.
Yup, fuel inflation is going nuts: https://theconversation.com/no-rate-hike-yet-but-will-it-rise-on-melbourne-cup-day-it-all-depends-on-petrol-prices-214738
