    Yeah, "Queenie" is known, though relatively uncommon.

    Most responses so far are quite aggressive. Disappointing. No one has to agree with Queen's decision but equally no one needs to diss her if they don't.

    This is tricky. On the one hand, I believe it's respectful to accede to a friend's wishes. If she has chosen a new name then respect suggests calling her by her chosen name. On the other hand, it doesn't sound as if you two are especially close. The question I'm asking myself is, Does this name...

    Shoppers Beware: ALDI's Nasty $5 Product Swap Leaves Thousands Asking 'Why?' Find Out Now!

    I cannot get my taste buds' imagination anywhere close to conceiving of a cheese burger-flavoured spring roll! What perverse chemical monstrosity must have created such an egregious additive? Someone must have been bored that horrendous day!

    Aussie drivers face unfair punishment as shocking truth behind double demerit penalties emerges

    Double demerits doesn't influence my driving habits - which are to keep to the speed limit and drive safely. They do, however, give me something extra to worry about and are an additional distraction. We all know, if we're driving, we don't need more distractions! As for organisational...

    Reality star's $600-a-night room leaves everyone speechless for all the wrong reasons: 'My jaw just dropped'

    No pictures of the room? The no-swim lagoon (oxymoronic) looks pretty ordinary, for sure. If the room were as ordinary it would be scandalous to pay $60 a night. BTW, "star," "reality," and especially MAFS should never appear together in the same sentence.

    The heartbreaking truth behind the massive Target boycott this Christmas – find out why shoppers are outraged!

    True enough. But that wasn't the point. Target had a certain reliability and trustworthiness. Its marketing emphasised it. Customers' experience verified it. Suddenly, it's gone. Sure, other options are available, but allow the mourning and expression of grief.

    The heartbreaking truth behind the massive Target boycott this Christmas – find out why shoppers are outraged!

    Yes. Once, Target was well-placed mid-range between the gaggle of socalled $2 shops and the top end - Myer, David Jones, Aherns. You could expect good quality, but affordable prices. Now, with Kmart becoming cheaper than Red Dot(!!!), and "Targé" becoming Kmart +, the mid-range has been swiped...

    This woman's unbelievable thrift shop discovery will leave you speechless: it's something she sold 13 years ago!

    Wouldn't the store manager be able to confirm or deny whether the industrious bloke ferrying all those goods was legit or bogus? I can see how it might look sus, but equally, it could be a transfer run?

    The heartbreaking truth behind the massive Target boycott this Christmas – find out why shoppers are outraged!

    I can't say I'm surprised: Target has been selling Anko products for a while now. It's a poorly-conceived move, and treats loyal customers with contempt. The management claim that Anko is as good as Target is transparent spin. It's become a management cliché and sends a clear message that the...
