Welcome to the Melbourne Community Daily Discussion Thread.
Munich Christmas market! Much less crowded than Nuremberg, although less variety in the stalls.This is great. Thank you. Is your focus Christmas markets on this trip?
Also that person in the bottom right look like they ate a lemon lol.
December and Jan are great times for us to take leave from our jobs, and we love coming to Europe. When we googled things to do in Europe at this time, Christmas markets popped up, so we’ve been going to a bunch but also doing other things. In Munich we went to two art galleries and a classical music concert, and we’re about to go to a town on a lake so we’ll do some walks around there.
Well I certainly appreciate the photos. I create Christmas tree themes every year at home as a fun little hobby and one of your photos inspired the theme for our 2025 tree.
Also your holiday sounds pretty great. I love going to galleries anytime I travel as well.
Wow, I’m in awe of how far you plan ahead! We’re certainly having a blast, although the little town we’re in today is veeeery quiet as lots of things are closed on Mondays and it’s pissing down with rain!
First day new job. Got here way too early. Please deity, don’t be a shit hole…
Good luck!
Good luck! Keep us updated!
Took a few days off work last week, left pretty specific instructions on what to do in my absence.
Returned today to absolutely fuck all being done. I’m extra shitty as I’ve covered for others when they were sick/holidays and things progressed in their absence.
Looks like I’ll have to return the favour and be ‘too busy’ for everything until after Xmas.

Better or worse than when people enthusiastically and confidently do just ridiculous things when there was no need for them to take action at all? I’m going to be doing a lot of unpicking and detangling when I’m back tomorrow. I’m practising my patient face.
In a way better, cause I don’t have to put out their fires. I’m just super bitter as I’ve always helped people out in the past. This was just a kick to the guts.
My tooths are now very clean. Which is good, but they don’t feel like my teeth anymore.
I like the new dentist I saw and am booked in for a torture session/filling soon. Why are teeth so poorly designed? And why don’t they come with a warranty?
I bought a Terry’s mint-flavoured chocolate orange, with the thought process being hey, I like chocolate oranges, I like mint chocolate, let’s give it a go.
A week or so later I saw it in the cupboard and had a horrible thought: is it orange AND mint? What kind of monstrosity have I purchased here? Is this going to be like a Vegemite Tim Tam?
Upon closer examination I can confirm, no, just mint, but shaped like an orange because Reasons. So you can all relax, I’m sure that was stressing other people too.
This made me check the two I had and they are definitely orange. Then I had a brilliant thought, what if I somehow shoot them open with my salt gun?
Update: experiment did not work. Salt gun not powerful enough. Terry’s #1 is too heavy. Terry’s #2 will have more thought to it.
Please report back with results!
Oh I’ll film it.
Need to throw the Terry’s choc orange like a grenade
I thought about rolling it down some pvc piping onto some concrete
Sledgehammer. It’s the only way to get to the chocolatey goodness
That combo would be like OJ and toothpaste
Just went out to the supermarket. The city is covered in a rare evening fog. Can’t see the tops of the taller buildings. Humid as fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.
I hate this weather, so sticky and yucky, doesn’t feel any better inside or outside today. Yuck! :(
It’s ridiculous! Even my giant office in the city is sticky inside, almost feels like there’s condensation on every surface…
is it hot, is it cold?? How do I dress for this weather 😵
dressing gown
I went outside in a tee and shorts. Warmish. Not windy.
I wish I knew, I can’t even dress myself properly today.
This morning on the telly they were talking about non alcoholic drinks for dogs because owners like to buy shit for their pets. Paw Blonde, Pawroni and Pawsecco are available for your party animals.
Oh Paw-leeze.
Oh you better pawlieve it.
it’s pawsome
Paw real.
Simply A-Paw-ling.
You can get cat wines and they are loaded with nip. 🐈🐈⬛🎉🎉
I don’t know why, but I always want or need to bake on days that are hot or humid.
Resident weirdo checking in.
This weather is good for yeast cookery - buns, bread or cake. Not good for pastry.
I think I will make some naan bread then
Please just say naan. Naan bread is just bread bread 😅
i am going to wash down some bao buns with chai tea
While looking at a picture of Mt Fujiyama.
from now on it shall be flat bread
I get that with hot days, too. Probably due to being stuck in the house and looking for something to do.

Came to say the same thing. WTH. When did this happen?
Thought I’d order a late breakfast… rider sat waiting for some other order for like 30 minutes or so before going to get mine. I paid for priority delivery but that doesn’t mean they’ll prioritise collecting it. Prick sat on it not allowing another rider to collect it while it went cold. He’s nearly here now 45 minutes past the original expected delivery. Angry.
one star him
The star ratings are for the restaurant. There’s just a thumbs up/down for riders. I still went with the full one star, thumbs down and raised a support ticket to complain. I got about half refunded AND 3 minutes in the air fryer brought everything back to life as if it were fresh, but that’s not the point. They should do full refunds for this like they used to. Fuckfaces.
What I find hilarious is that even when you give a rider a thumbs down, it’ll ask you if you want to add a tip after.
Makes me have so little faith with ordering using delivery services.
I’m scared that something will go wrong with the delivery, I might as well have picked it up myself.
I ordered too, the delivery was totally wrong and when I messaged the driver he cancelled my delivery. So I got someone elses breakfast for free. sadly its all dairy and cheese so I can eat it.
I have very little enthusiasm for today.
Good Bot. 😊
Another night owl!
