    Are these boots considered 'bogan' or chic? Fashion fans say their piece!

    They're a great invention in footwear but like Crocs, flip-flops and wellies, there are places where they're not the most appropriate choice.

    Put his rap sheet in his pocket and send him to El Salvador.

    Broadcaster and writer urges ocean protection to save humanity

    It’s interesting that a number of people in this thread question or dispute DA’s views on anthropogenic climate change. I am one of them, and with a degree in Geology and Zoology (as did David), I have many reasons for disputing climate change, so I am surprised that David hasn’t been more...

    Community Outrage: Why High-Fives from Everyone's Favorite 'Lollipop Man' Are Being Forbidden – Protect Your Kids!

    This attitude by authorities and some parents could be teaching children that most adults are unfriendly, to be avoided and possibly feared. I can't believe that acts of grooming take place in a 2 second act of friendship and humour in the midst of many other kids and parents. Lighten up...

    'The car was a piece of s***': Argument ensues over five-digit repair job

    My car repairer would always give me a call, explain the problem and a quote before doing anything. It seems like this incident wasn't handled in a mature manner by either party.

    Shocking reason why Prince William hired Diana's divorce lawyer

    Are we expected to believe that this earlier comment of yours is a fact and not an opinion?: "The monarchy is nothing but a useless and tenuous connection between the government and religion in the United Kingdom, which themselves are useless."

    You won’t believe why a woman tried to open a plane door at 33,000 feet

    I have always understood, and would fully expect that it was impossible to open one of those doors while in flight. What I don't understand is why they needed to return to Denpasar rather than continue to Australia.

    Aussies share a 'big worry hanging on our heads' as cost of living continues to rise

    Sorry, but the Greens are a total waste of space. They have no idea about how to manage economics, healthcare, power generation, climate change or anything else they rabbit on about.

    Computer Scam.

    I think I've clicked on that photo, and others on FB. Lots of alarming bells and whistles ring out and an alarming pop up says your device has been infected by a dangerous virus. The pop up says to call Microsoft(?) on the given phone number in order to get it removed. The phone number is that...

    Some say it’s overdue, others say it’s unnecessary: Where do you stand on this bathroom debate?

    For goodness sake, just pick one, then walk into one of the cubicles and close the door if you're concerned about other people observing how you're doing what you're there for. As a binary(?) man, I've done my thing at a urinals in ski resorts in Europe while female attendants mop the floor...

    Former prime minister sparks fiery debate with TV host: 'We believe in free speech'

    I think the residents of Darwin in February 1942 might have a different opinion. Also, the incursions on Newcastle and Sydney 3 or 4 months later . . . . .
