    Today on Melbourne roads:

    • Bicycle rider jumping a speed bump on the wrong side of the road nearly hit us.
    • Doing 105 on the Calder overtaking a bunch of cars doing 90. SUV towing a caravan cuts me off and proceeds to fish tail and nearly lost control a few times.
    • Tonight also on the Calder. Absolutely pissing down so most of us were cruising at 80kmh. Except for that muppet who decided that he could fly past at maybe 120.
    • Doing 80 on a very quiet rural road of some sort. No idea what I did wrong but a bird somehow managed to land a massive shit on our windshield. Of all the places and time they could’ve shitted, it had to be on us driving past under the tree.

    I fucking love this community. I’d rather drink my own piss than drink instant. Very good sir/madam. We are all very excepting here. Take my upvote.🔝

      Someone should print that on a tshirt and put it in a souvenir shop. I’m also surprised license plates haven’t changed to “victoria - the coffee capital” I’m fine with instant when real coffee isn’t available.

    Fun facts, air conditioning accounts for 70% of power use in Saudi Arabia, and another 20% is used for desalination plants.
