Everyone does it here like this and you can't escape it.
That's the worst.

That's it.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
There's no way to sub out of it. You're completely trapped.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
Yes, adults who say just manifest it are not adults.
You've never done a tax return. You don't just manifest it.
If I only worked like that, I just manifest it. No,

Up here at work, and I'm like, whatever you're saying
isn't coming on my show.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
I don't want to reward.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
That's kind of behavior, you know, couples sharing Facebook accounts
and email addresses.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
I haven't seen the Facebook accountd.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Yes, it is. It's people of a certain atrio, right, Okay.
When this was a big thing before Instagram or TikTok,
when Facebook was like the way to stay connected with friends.
Now it's all wait to get irritated with friends and
their political views.
Speaker 5 (02:02):
And it's always that couple that have to do like
an annual update just before Christmas.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Yes, yeah, my Instagram.
Speaker 6 (02:13):
My partner needs to stay way away, but only bad
things will come if he starts.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
There's no way they can be joined together.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
All right, strong opinions? What have you got? Rio?
Speaker 6 (02:23):
I feel very passionately that if you're at a restaurant
and one table is singing happy birthday to everyone to
someone on the table, Sorry, everyone in the restaurant should
join in and sing happy birthday with that table.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
You're wrong. No use me, you're grown up.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
No, why do our strangers need to sing happy birthdays?
Speaker 3 (02:44):
Because you're not miserable.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
This is what's wrong with the world right now. Everyone's
feelings need to be validated. We're not that special.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
It's their special day though once a year. It's like
it's like a big no.
Speaker 6 (02:59):
Like a big choir, like a momah, I don't know
who you are, Okay, no.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
But that's have you.
Speaker 6 (03:06):
It happened recently last weekend, and the whole restaurant was singing,
and it was a beautiful moment of community celebration.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
You know what it is.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
It's a fake knee joke moment off the foe. You
heard it, I said it, faux community. You're doing it
because you had to. Did you buy them anythink? I
didn't know where's the community half?
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Do you? You don't even know their name?
Speaker 6 (03:35):
But that, Yeah, that does get a bit awkward when
you get to the birthday.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Yeah, do you know? I feel most sorry for the staff.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
How many of those in an average week you got
to get through it and not And also what I
feel sorry for those tables that and sister staff lean
into it. They never tip and they come they never tip.
Maybe tipped me, you know, barely making minimum wage in
his job to sing old Lord fancy pants Happy birthday
out the back of washing pants. This did not get received,
(04:07):
so I thought it was we living at adolescent times
toddlers are running countries, and now we're supposed to sing
happy birthday to each other. You're a grown ass person.
Birthdays are very different anyway. It's called strong opinions? What
is your strong opinion?
Speaker 1 (04:26):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
It's been googling about Salvos and can you take clean,
freshly launded bed sheets there as we're downside seeing now
we're empty nests. We've got lots of pretty pretty new,
good condition bedsheets and owners want to throw them away,
so Salvos you can take them. They will recycle them.
And they are just looking at what they will accept
and want. They won't accept, God damn it. They won't
(04:51):
accept weapons. What are I meant to do with these nunchucks?
Where do I go now?
Speaker 1 (04:57):
With them? Free to a good home. They won't take weapons.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
Who's going in with like a mace or jousting stick
to Salvos.
Speaker 6 (05:07):
Someone must have otherwise they wouldn't. Rio's turning up.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
With the samurai, So it madam, No, it was my
grandfather's all right.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Extreme opinions? What's yours? Oh four seventy five three one
oh four three? Christian if an entire restaurant was singing
Happy birthday. Then I think Rio crashed a private function, adding,
you're right, is that kind of guy? Vanessa? You Christian?
Speaker 1 (05:34):
If I'm not getting a piece of that birthday cake,
I'm not singing you happy birthday?
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Okay, okay, fair all Christian extreme opinion. The AFL wild
Card round is a joke and crash grab one.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Christian Crocs should be banned.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Yes, which pervs on this show have crossed show vans?
Oh my kids, I don't mind, but adults it's disgusting.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
Tayln even has I think fur lined.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
I've seen them wow and then a smell and when
she shovels up, bop gone in. You know you get fur.
It's going to make the foot sweat. It's anti socialist work,
you know, keep.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
It behind the front door.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
I say, if you don't have indoor, would not accept
that weapons They were on crocs there, Patsy, what's yours?
Speaker 1 (06:30):
As we God?
Speaker 5 (06:30):
This is my number one gripe, and that is people
who insist on reversing into a car park. And it's
okay if you get it done once, but they don't,
and you should smash it with rear vision cameras in
most cars don't.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
It's three or four attempts while we ree or four.
The rest of the world have to just sit there.
Speaker 5 (06:51):
I watched a bloke yesterday in my local supermarket seven
attempts to try it.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
I'm sorry, it's it should be just one and done,
maybe two, three, three, it's bad.
Speaker 5 (07:03):
Turned around in mate, give up. Just drive into it
because you're holy. Everyone else up trying to prove a point?
What does my heading?
Speaker 2 (07:14):
The audacity of it?
Speaker 5 (07:16):
It's like, don't if you can't nail it, do not bother.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
Okay, so you don't mind them doing it if they
can get it in one.
Speaker 5 (07:23):
If you're a good drug run and done, well done, yeah,
good on you going to get behind the marketing campaign,
happy to the voiceovers for a decent rate. But if
you're going to be like often powers in that scene.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
Get it.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
And it says a lot about a person who assumes
that everyone's going to wait for them. We have to
no guys to share audacity of it?
Speaker 3 (07:51):
Does my heading?
Speaker 5 (07:52):
And it's I don't know why you have to, like
what are you have? You got a quick get away?
You've got to hold the place up and need to
like go in a heart. Why are you reversing into
a park?
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Some of those the size of some of those oversized yes,
come around the burbs. There's no way you're off roading
in nothing. There's no mud on it. They're like immaculate,
there's no mud anywhere. You're not camping. You know, you've
got tiny toolbox in the back, don't even a trade.
You're just an insecure guy with a small peepe.

They take up the whole bay.
Speaker 5 (08:28):
Door.

They got that kind of whatever the bowl wattages, lumens
that they have in a lighthouse that on both the
light lighthouse.
