Yes I noticed that Ch 7 has shown Olivia movies every night since she passed and some twice ... You know that they do it just to make $$$ as they don't show the movies ad free 😡…day 7… this morning on Channel 7’s Morning Show Larry Emdur says “after this break… Olivia’s last wish blah blah blah!”… REALLY?… a week after sweet Olivia dies and you’re STILL milking it Channel 7?… you fucking parasites… what a load of leeches… just as well that the beautiful lady is being cremated and not being buried… you disgusting low life turds would probably put a camera in it to give us a daily shot of her decomposing body as a daily feature of ‘our Olivia… the memory lives on’ or something just as gross… congratulations Channel 7… you are now the new Channel 9!… that’s how low you have sunk… cheers.
I was saying earlier; Shane Warne over-shadowed Rod Marsh's death, and Olivia over-shadowed Judith Durham's death.
It's terrible, and just plain disrespectful.…that is just plain wrong… I wonder what the Marsh family or the Durham family members think of Channel 7?… I know that I would be totally pissed off!… cheers.
… my neighbour next door has the package of two heaters plus a ‘free stand’… I was thinking of buying them too… until I spoke to them about them… granted they are instantaneous heat and turn on and off when you go in and out of the room… a good idea indeed… I was ready to get them… then they told me the price they paid… yeah right!… fuck that idea!… it’s cheaper to buy warmer clothing… it’s a lot of money to pay for just a period of say… 3 months of the year…That stupid TIVA wall heater advert has been flogged to death again recently, I suppose since its winter again... But its amazing how they simply rehash the same old advert they've been using for years... and the problem with that is that the advert targets the running costs of their product verses a gas bottle outdoor heater claiming that their TIVA heater only costs 50c per hour to run...
Now this may have been so when the advert was first created 4 or 5 years ago, but we've experienced quite a lot of price increases for electricity and especially recently - yet they've never changed the amount of their claimed heaters usage costs... What cost 50c per hour years ago would now be probably close to 3 or 4 times as more... It's gone up 140% just this year...
(I was shocked (haha pun) when I was googling the name of this product to see its actual retail cost is around $800 - for a f***ing heater)
I hear ya... and in the stupid advert they have scenes where they brag about how it still works in the rain & snow ???? Like you said, who the fuck is gunna sit outside under a heater in the fucking rain???? ... It gets down to zero most nights where I live & I rarely go outside onto the veranda unless I want to see something like a a meteor shower & then, I only spend 10 mins max whilst all rugged up out there..… my neighbour next door has the package of two heaters plus a ‘free stand’… I was thinking of buying them too… until I spoke to them about them… granted they are instantaneous heat and turn on and off when you go in and out of the room… a good idea indeed… I was ready to get them… then they told me the price they paid… yeah right!… fuck that idea!… it’s cheaper to buy warmer clothing… it’s a lot of money to pay for just a period of say… 3 months of the year…
…besides… in our old house we had a patio outside… we had a gas heater… it never got fired up once… nobody ever wanted to sit outside to eat in the middle of winter… what’s the point?… having an outside BBQ in summer was always great fun… watching moths and bugs getting zapped in the bug zapper… having mozzies trying to eat you alive and not being affected by mozzie coils or Citronella candles sitting all around you… how can you have it any better than that?… lol!… but in winter?… that only happens on TV shows and commercials… so why pay THAT much for outdoor heaters?… it doesn’t make any sense whatsoever for the average home… sidewalk cafes etc maybe?… but not for average homes methinks… cheers.
I was thinking the other day when I saw one of their ads that the woman who is eating a meal stabs a piece of pasta or something with her fork and eats it - I thought, wow, it looks to me like there is only 20 more stabs to go before that meal is finished.. The plate had a very light portion on it for a meal...... all you get to eat is one slice of bread and a tiny little square of margarine that isn't even enough to spread on a single slice of bread! LOL! I
Yes same, every month I go into town for the monthly shop & over the last 6 months I've thought, wow, all the prices keep increasing.. Long life milk used to be $1.10, then $1.20 and increased 10c every month I went in, it its now $1.60 ... bread is the same and now a 'cheapy' loaf is $1.60Another one that makes me laugh is how on the news tonight you hear how nice supermarkets like "Woolworths" and "Coles" are by supposedly "lowering" the prices on so many everyday items.......
It's sort of my twist on that Animal Farm life quote - "Every man is equal, although some are more equal than others"....…by the way Thing… I just love your “I don't discriminate, except towards those who don't do exactly what I think they should...“ motto lol!… cheers.
