    Dog groomer faces $7500 fine after shocking treatment to customer’s pet

    Stories like this are useless (and annoying) if the offending business is not identified. How do we know where NOT to take our pets?

    Bunnings employee exposes mistreatment of workers by sexist customers

    Not just customers but male staff as well. As a woman, I have been patronised by Bunnings male staff on many occasions. Like the time I happened to be standing in the kitchen section (waiting for my husband) when a male staff member approached me and asked what I was interested in. When I...

    Discover this shopper’s shocking revelation about Woolworths 'low price' items: 'How am I supposed to live laugh love?'

    The whole premise is faulty. You can't compare salmon with Mexican food to imply that it is cheaper to eat out than cook at home. The true comparison would be to work out how much does buying the salmon in the supermarket cost (and how many meals would it make, or how many people would it...

    The Cranky Codger: Self-Checkout Machines: The Silent Con Artists of the Supermarket Aisle

    It would be funny if it wasn't for the fact that you and I are paying higher prices to cover the cost of theft.

    FRIENDLY THONGS

    In ancient Greece, prostitutes wore special sandals that imprinted a message in the dirt which read "follow me". For real - no joke.

    MAN SLOWS TRAFFIC

    There was a fellow here in WA, who lived on a busy street, who made his letterbox look like a speed camera. It worked too. When people complained, the police shrugged their shoulders and said there was no law against it.

    Icecream for the soul

    Icecream for the soul Last week, I took my grandchildren to a restaurant. My 8-year-old grandson asked if he could say grace. As we bowed our heads he said, "God is good, God is great. Thank you for the food, and I would thank you even more if Grandpa gets us ice cream for dessert. And God save...

    Nothing in this meme indicated racism, as opposed to jokes that are intellectual, political, religious, sexual, etc. It was just a comment regarding jokes in general but I think you've illustrated the point beautifully.

    Outrage ensues after landlord criticises tenant’s 'continuous' repair appeals

    "the landlord listed several issues, such as a faulty roller door, a loose doorknob, and an uncooperative plumbing system, dismissing them as minor concerns that didn't require immediate attention" What a jerk! Tenants are entitled to expect to live in a house in good repair. That includes...

    Driver slammed online for hogging four spots, including disabled bay, in Bunnings carpark

    Maybe but I believe in karma and karma is a b**ch. I think people who go through life not caring about the needs of others ("stuff you Jack as long as I'm alright") will eventually get theirs.

    Driver slammed online for hogging four spots, including disabled bay, in Bunnings carpark

    A few people have made comments regarding private property. Just FYI, drivers who assume that they can get away with this sort of behaviour because it is on private property might be in for a rude shock. If there are parking issues, any owner of private property can approach their local...

    Joke Philanthropy

    Asshole is British and dates back to the 1880's. Meaning a "contemptible person" is from mid-1930s. Earlier the word was a Northern English and Scottish dialectal variant of ash-hole, a "receptacle for ashes beneath a grate." Wright's "English Dialect Dictionary" (1898) lists many examples...

    Joke Philanthropy

    I'm flabbergasted at the number of people taking this seriously - it's a joke, for crying out loud. It didn't really happen. This is not about real people. Save your outrage for things that really matter.

    Driver slammed online for hogging four spots, including disabled bay, in Bunnings carpark

    "The driver had the audacity to spread their vehicle and trailer across not one, not two, but four whole parking spaces!" What, only four spaces? What an amateur! Some guy with a similar ute and trailer managed to take up SIX spots in our local shopping centre this morning. Admittedly, none...

    Driver slammed online for hogging four spots, including disabled bay, in Bunnings carpark

    That's against the rules of the Disability permit - if caught or dobbed in, your friend would have lost her permit so she is wise to have nipped it in the bud.

    Poor parking turned public shaming: Jeep owner receives a flurry of strong-worded notes after parking across four bays at Bunnings

    One time I went to the supermarket and the carpark was virtually full. The only parking spot available was partially taken up by another car whose wheels were over the white line. It was stinking hot, over the old century mark, and this spot was a shady one. Not to be deterred, I parked there...

    I've done that at the hospital where I worked (before retirement) using the same picture.
