Welcome to the Melbourne Community Daily Discussion Thread.
Put an offer in on a house today. Pray for Mojo.
🤞🤞🤞
Is this the fixer upper you mentioned yesterday/day before?
Nah, decided against it, as much as I liked it, there was just too much uncertainty behind it on how much needed to be fixed up. This one is smaller but recently done up. Huge backyard I can plant fruit trees, treehouse for little one, etc.
Sounds great! Land tax if and when you get it. No, not the gubbermint land tax - our land tax.
🙏
I still want to be Mackenzie Arnold when I grow up
I’m older than most of the Matilda’s and I still want to be them when I grow up 🥲
I’ve just realised it’s Wednesday, not Thursday. Goddammit.
look at it this way, you have an extra day of life. 👍
Lmao howling at the comment I just read under an actor interview that said “she just does it for the money”. My guy I hate to break it to you but everyone needs to be able to pay the bills, no ones rocking up for anything that time consuming just because.
Made some nachos. I think stuntman Mike would approve.
Looks amazing but like… you enough sour cream for two chips there
Nah. At least 5 chips.
Yummy but what are the others having? 😂
Just devoured this.
Most of my fizzy drink gone.
I am content.
Pizza!
Chips to come soon after resting while watching the Matildas. Come on, you can this!
God, I’m tired. The Matildas are going to have to (please God) win without me.
I just woke up. I came home and collapsed in bed and straight up went to sleep for 3 hours. …And I’m going to have dinner and drug the cat and go straight back to sleep I think. Sorry Tillies ;_;
Night night.
Hope you wake up to some good news.
Same. Night. Good luck Matilda’s 🥱💤
I swear to God the gardener at work gets some weird satisfaction revving his petrol leaf blower. It’s the most annoying, infuriating sound that makes me want to go all Liam Neeson on his ass.
Probably similar to people who like the rev their cars to feel the power.
Pretty annoying as leaf blowers are super loud.
Funny enough I said the exact same thing today. Do we have the same gardener?
Please post your pre game meals, snacks, drinks, platters etc tonight. You’ll make me very happy 😊 Go Matildas ⚽ 💛💚💛💚💛💚💛💚 ⚽️
Tea and biscuits
Will do though nothing fancy.
Home brand cheese corn chips, bottle of homebrand orange drink and my bargain of the day, a 700g of smoked ham for $2.80.
I went crazy and ate about 1/2 of the ham already.
I’ve got a whole pizza as well in the fridge ready for game time.
chips and drink
That’s alotta ham for $2.80. who’s your hook up?
It was just at Woolies on the clearance section because the use by date was very close.
Munching on a blood orange that is so good it should be illegal.
My favourite orange out of all of them.
I was worried they’d be a bit shit this year because of the “mild” winter but actually seem the best I’ve had in a while!
I had a bowl of air fried cooked brown rice. One half desert spoon of olive oil and half a teaspoon of vege real gourmet stock with about a cup of cooked brown rice. Ten minutes air fry, its crunchy and tasty like potato chips, but cos brown rice / olive oil, super healthy. For game snacks its rice cakes and promite. I’m keen on keeping this figure.
You know, I just might need some snacks…
I’m not fussy. Anything will do!
I am having some sweet chilli and sour cream chips. Will be having bean and beef burritos with guac and coriander sauce and a side of rice.
Yum. We’ll be having nuggets, little boys and chips with cheese and gravy. Assortment of sauces and dips to go with.
Have just been enjoying seaweed rice crackers and hummous. Will be getting some pizza for the akshul game. To be enjoyed with a light sweetish but not sugary white wine. Bugger health - I need comfort fuud tonight!
Seaweed rice crackers are the tops imo.
No argument here. My favorite also.
Corn chips, generic brand Pringle type chips, salsa and some dips. We already ate the party pies and sausage rolls. Also home brand soft drink. Tea for me.
chicken schnitzel on rice with tomato and onion
salt&vinegar chips with some kinda sweet drink
I think I might have a drink tonight while watching the game. The question is do I sink a couple of beers, g&ts or pull out the big guns and make margaritas? Big choices.
Margs! Margs! Margs!
It’s so tempting ngl.
Tequila shots or GTFO
It’s a week day cobber! But maybe a shot for shot ⚽️ 🥅 👍
Except for penalty shoot outs.
Maybe shot for goal,
except if it goes to penalties. Shot for shot might get messyBeat me to itMy house mate and I drank a carton of beer one morning watching a world cup game. Every yellow or red card or goal was a full beer down. So yeah, 12 of them. I have no recollection of who played or the score but there were a lot of professional fouls. I staggered to bed at about 10am. Fucken ell. Almost feel hungover just remembering.
I’m hungover just reading it. Chugging beers gets me fucked more than doing shots.
I’m glad you’re still with us after that ordeal
It was laid down in text as an idea for anyone watching tonight, who has no plans tomorrow and doesn’t mind a drink. I don’t drink anymore.
A written accord? That’s classy and super derro all at once. I fucken love it!!!
penalty shoot outs is when you need it the most
I vote criminally strong g&ts
I think this might be the way. I’ve got a crook back atm and last night my egg exploded in the microwave so today I need to clean it more thoroughly. I am not impressed. I need to medicate.
Margs all the way! We’ve got some fresh lime juice in the fridge and a couple of whole limes in the fruit bowl. Very tempted. Very.
I always laugh at the serving suggestion on like leggo’s tortellini, ravioli extra. Serves 4 apparently. I assume that is children and not a grown-arse man
Oh yeah. The suggested serving sizes of dim sums of whatever it is.
I feel bad when I eat 6 times the suggested serving size.
As if I’m going to stop at one hash brown!
That’s like Allen’s mixed lollies. 3 lollies = one serve. Um no it doesn’t. Not even close.
Trying to look up rules of soccer so I can watch the Matildas with some semi understanding, other than put ball into goals, don’t use hands. Apparently the whole world knows how to play except for me and it’s hard to find a basic video. Doesn’t matter, will be cheering anyway.
I’m in the same boat as you. Elder minipeeler will act as rule remembering person for thee evening because he’s the only one who’s actually played the game recently enough to remember any rules!
The hardest one might be the offside rule.
Soxcat has been sadly quarantined to the study and bathroom (with all electronics removed as she has once almost sprayed on a laptop…) No comfy couches or the bedroom for her lest she pee on things that are significantly harder to clean. Left out a heated mat for her on low heat for 8 hours though.
Poor girl, she seems to have lost weight - she’s so light! And she snoozed on my lap for over an hour and it hasn’t even been 12 hours since she arrived - that’s record time - but I think it’s because she’s being all hormonal and affectionate.
poor kitty :(
She is in good hands though :)
Everything came up milhouse at the gp today. I’m healthy af, ideal weight, hormone levels are exactly where they should be and my bp and ecg are so bloody normal I feel basic.
If the matlidas win and I have a nice walk along the beach in the sun it’ll be perfect. Wish the game didn’t start at 8pm though, there’s no way I’ll stay up for the whole thing.
What to eat for the game though? I think the usual rice cakes marg and low salt vegemite will do fine. Staying away from processed foods, sugar and booze are obviously doing wonders for me. After the total glum and transphobia of last week, I feel positively fucking on fire. Thanks Milho

Going to try and ask my boss if I can work from home tomorrow, I don’t think it’ll happen but I’m hoping.

Maybe I’ll watch the sports ball. I love women so much. Like… I just, I love women.
I love women too! Defo watch the fit women play that ballsport lol
Yeah I don’t know a thing about soccer all I know is that I’m gay so… I’m sure that cancels it out hahah
Feel that. I went a bought a long cable so I can watch it on the tv in the bedroom I got free last week. Apparently half the Aussie team have partners in the English team. Gonna be a great game, with extra tension. I doubt I’ll see it all though. I get up at 5 for work and I’m just super opposed to living tired anymore. I love women a lot too, and I feel like my current shape is quite Matilda’s player-esque so that’s nice. It’s lovely to be excited about women’s sport and know the rest of the country is too. It’s about time.
Honestly I’m a hypocrite because I support women’s sport I just don’t watch it.
But man… women.
