we have the best beaches in the world and I only ever go there to get lunch
Cheap nachos at Jimmy Deans overlooking Scarborough beach on a cool summer evening watching the sun go down is an awesome way to spend time with my girl.
Australia has this one beach where approximately half a million children are stung to death by jellyfish every year.
By the time they drag the limp child out of the water the flesh around the site of the stung has already begun literally dissolving, making the stung area not unlike that of a bruise on a pear, or apple. What's worse, if the victim survives, he or she will have to endure almost half a year of intense pain.
yesterday i almost went to a beach down south but didnt and today thought id go to that beach but didnt and then i was gonna go to a local beach but didnt do that either
bought a couple of shirts and had vietnamese food
beach is shit anyway

There are usually two reasons why anybody complains about Perth, and both of them can be easily proven to be null points:
1) It's boring.
Totally and utterly wrong. If you can't find at least 5 cheap things to do in any given day you are a failure at life, or so astoundingly lazy you can't even be bothered Googling 'things to do in Perth', in which case you are also a failure at life. We have every activity you can think of. If you can't be bothered actually doing them, that's not the cities fault.
2) Traffic.
Yes, people in Perth drive like fuckwits. So do people in every city in the world. Get over it, or buy a helicopter.
the boring thing about perth is that you have to go out of your way to do things and you cannot just chill on a busy street with a cup of coffee and people watch because there is no such place and the only people you can ever see are the dudes who have been flown in from the mines in the desert for the weekend and all they do is go to the perth bar and get all drunk and moody and wish they were still at the mines
For one solid example, the Merchant Coffee House in the city opposite Myers is my favourite cafe in Perth, tasty sandwiches and good coffee and chocolate custard canolis awmphlwphlampham and loads of people walking past outside. I can think of at least two others in the CBD, and pretty much any part of the city that has high pedestrian traffic will have at least one or two.
I don't know what criteria you guys are judging these beaches by but I'm pretty sure you're both wrong
You are so wrong about this. If you're looking for surfing beaches, than go no further than Kirra, Duranbah or Burleigh. For picture perfect beaches to laze about on, head on up to White Haven Beach or any of the islands in the Whitsundays. Touristy spots are served by places like Surfers Paradise (!) or any number of popular beaches on the coast.
Australians of SE++, should I move to Perth for school? Or does it suck.
Now why the fuck would you want to do that for?
Veterinary school. The school is Murdoch University and I know nothing about it. I don't really care if it's boring I'm not going to have any free time anyway. Melbourne and Sydney apparently also have programs but I liked the one in Perth the best. But if Murdoch is like the clown college of Australia I'd rather know that ahead of time.

A lot of people in this country pooh-pooh Australian table wines. This is a pity as many fine Australian wines appeal not only to the Australian palate but also to the cognoscenti of Great Britain.
Black Stump Bordeaux is rightly praised as a peppermint flavoured Burgundy, whilst a good Sydney Syrup can rank with any of the world's best sugary wines.
Château Blue, too, has won many prizes; not least for its taste, and its lingering afterburn.
Old Smokey 1968 has been compared favourably to a Welsh claret, whilst the Australian Wino Society thoroughly recommends a 1970 Coq du Rod Laver, which, believe me, has a kick on it like a mule: eight bottles of this and you're really finished. At the opening of the Sydney Bridge Club, they were fishing them out of the main sewers every half an hour.
Of the sparkling wines, the most famous is Perth Pink. This is a bottle with a message in, and the message is 'beware'. This is not a wine for drinking, this is a wine for laying down and avoiding.
Another good fighting wine is Melbourne Old-and-Yellow, which is particularly heavy and should be used only for hand-to-hand combat.
Quite the reverse is true of Château Chunder, which is an appellation contrôlée, specially grown for those keen on regurgitation; a fine wine which really opens up the sluices at both ends.
Real emetic fans will also go for a Hobart Muddy, and a prize winning Cuivre Reserve Château Bottled Nuit San Wogga Wogga, which has a bouquet like an aborigine's armpit.

yea its pretty cool
if you liked the royal tenenbaums and whatever other movies by the director the movie should appeal
the first half of the movie is pretty funny and entertaining
but then towards the end it abruptly changes tone and its not so much fun anymore
still okay
but everything before that was just these guys fucking around on a train with no real point and it was fun to watch
I know one. His whole sexual delight used to consist in watching a woman swim, but he now casts her into a pond and fishes her out half-drowned, then hangs her by the feet to encourage the water to drain out of her. Once she has returned to her senses, into the pond she goes again, and so on and so forth, till she gives up the ghost.
It's not a clown college by any stretch. Murdoch's a good uni, it's just not the best the state has to offer.
Murdoch has the best biological research labs out of all the unis, they are all very specialised. That and their political degree is considered the best in the state.

Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.

@J3p: NT beaches. Box jellyfish, plus on occasion, saltwater crocs. And the beaches aren't even nice. Rough sand and no surf.
Actually I lie, my #1 favourite roadsign is one I saw on a dirt track in the bush that said "Collapsing mineshafts under road"
WHAT?!?
bought a couple of shirts and had vietnamese food
beach is shit anyway

I did see a sign for Leet once (not sure if it was a road or town) but didnt have time for a photo op.
his legs have clearly been bitten off
probably by a shark
Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.
i'm surprised he even got near the water, what with the living carpet of spiders he would have had to crawl over
I'm pretty sure that road sign is poisonous.

Ah I see. Can't help you with that then
chateau vida flor, damnit. Go listen to your 12th man CDs until you know them properly!
(every time this thread gets bumped, I'm like 'oh god, what have we done now...')
so is this a good movie besides natalie portman's disappointing ass?

Is this a real picture?! If so, fuck you New Zealand for making these things extinct! I want to ride one!
