As an Australian I would struggle significantly unless you were to also transport me geographically.

Took me sec... but I also find it pretty funny

Now that's an interesting question in c/lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world

Agree to disagree

I really love heist movies, gangster movies, prison movies, and so on. What is lemmy's suggestion that I should watch? Beware I have seen alot. in c/movies@lemmy.world

[–] PahdyGnome@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

'Snatch' and 'Lock Stock & Two Smoking Barrels' are two of my favourite gangster/heist movies, both by Guy Ritchie. 'Brawl In Cell Block 99' is a surprisingly good and quite violent prison movie starring Vince Vaughn. A far less violent prison movie I quite like is 'The Green Mile". "Gangs of New York" is definitely worth a watch if you've not seen it. There are also of course the classic heists like 'Italian Job' and 'Ocean's [number]'. 'Catch me If You Can' isn't a heist movie per se but it involves a lot of stealing and subterfuge.

I know there are so many more I can't currently think of but hopefully these few suggestions help to occupy your week off, enjoy!

I dare say yes, yes indeed you can.

Sovcit thinks a birth certificate is a contract. in c/insanepeoplefacebook@lemmy.world

[–] PahdyGnome@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Exactly what I was going to say; it's not a contract, it's a record. Even if it were a contract it's not being signed by a baby, it's being signed by the relevant responsible adult(s).

Peter Pan may have been a psychopath but he sure had a point

People who live in functional and safe countries, how happy are you? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

[–] PahdyGnome@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

Australian checking in.

Feeling as happy and as safe as ever. Granted, I don't pay a lot of attention to our politics cos it's just a bunch of little children fighting over who gets to play in the sandbox but it says something that I CAN be ignorant of our politics without being scared that something drastic is going to happen while I'm not looking.

My biggest concern is honestly that Australia has a habbit of following whatever inclinations big Daddy USA is following and for that reason the state of affairs over there is a little worring to me.

But yeah, overall can't complain.

Do most people still use computers, or do people only use a smartphone as their main/only device? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

[–] PahdyGnome@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

I have a laptop that I use for things that I find too cumbersome for a phone such as writing, things that require multiple tabs, anything official/formal. Oh and also for playing pokemon ROM hacks.

Other than that I find a phone satisfies my day to day needs.
