Australia is falling to bits .. about nine of the last ten telephone calls I made were "unavailable," while it is nigh on impossible to find anything on sale so you either purchase on the i'net or you don't get it, as well the stuff you get falls apart within days ..

I went to the legal marijuana outlet and went thru the highly costly interview process and got a prescription for medical cannabis, whereass the pharmacy said they would SMS for when to come in and pick it up .. ten days later I had not heard from them so I rang .. the sheila who answered the phone said "Girl Scout Cookies MJ is "out of stock" .. I said would it have been too difficult to tell me that ..

Isn't this what this dude went through in the movie "Falling Down" not that I'm suggesting you do an Aussie version:

Yes. I was sent three (3) census forms for the same address. An e-copy that I lodged; a hard-copy because they said I hadn't lodged the e-copy, which I delivered to the post and last, but certainly not least, a final reminder census form which I lodged electronically and then...I lodged a complaint.

I guess I was lucky I wasn't dealing with a call centre overseas?

Yeah I'm in Brisbane and I got three .. the first one arrived out of the blue and I never opened it, neither did I the previous Census and a bloke with a clue board lobbed on my doorstep, he identified himself as a Census Officer and started reading questions off of a form he had.

I don't play their games and have only worn a surgical mask when the Ferry Master said I wasn't coming aboard without one.

I got a second letter it went down the same hole, then a fella a clone of the last Census bloke turned up, he dictated a few Q's then left, last week I got the same letter as you saying that I hadn't lodged, down it went also .. take it easy yr gettin' too old for this sh*t.

The dressing gown I bought online fell apart, so I got another one which did the same, another two after that did as well .. so I have four ragged DG's hanging here for a total cost of around 700$.

One was Yak wool it was 175 English quid in 2018, it developed holes in the elbows after a single season now it is hanging in rags, the others were all silk affairs which were sent from China.

The latest has just split right down the seam it was a steal @ 49$ Au., despite all it is very classy silk with silk inlays featuring wonderful Chinese calligraphy and a dragon.

The one before that for about 300Au. was a "top of the line" item that outlasted about four predecessors but now hangs in rags, all Chinese silk .. come to think of it the total outlay is nearer to a grand or even more.

Maybe I should start a ufundme account to keep me in silk .. I wear them pretty hard, today I put another one I have had for about four seasons on at about 5:00 am, it is torn and shredded and is still in place which is about par or the course around here.

Any more questions ..
