and we watched the conveyor belt of bread like always

so for the first time, my dad caves into curiousity

and stops the car and goes into the bakery

which is open 7 days a week, 24 hours a day.

And then when he gets to the counter

a boy pops up and they start talking

and my dad asks for one of the bread things

because they look like massive round bread rolls that could ‘feed us for a week’.

Which is exaggerating, because they’re just a little bigger than a dinner plate.  But still.

So the boy reaches up, and grabs one from the conveyor belt for my dad, and places it in front of him

and my dad is all puzzled because

the bread is actually the flat Lebanese bread

and he was expecting a massive bread roll and can’t get over the fact that’s it’s flat and not-massive.

I bet the boy thought my dad hadn’t eaten for days and was a beggar or something, asking for one.

So he gave it to my dad free of charge, and my dad bought a bag of 7 for a dollar

hot from the oven.

It smelt like perfectly browned toast in my lap on the way home.

Here is the bakery’s address:

779 Punchbowl Rd

Punchbowl NSW 2196

Australia

Their conveyor belt is so cool.

Transliteration: kore ga ima wadai no ianfu desu ka?

Translation: is this the comfort women (which are the current topic)?

I found this on a leaked Kara Speed Up music video on youtube.

the books are perfect yay

wait yes there’s my maths

But anyway, have a proper blogpost, where I actually relay what happened in my life today, unlike the posts for the past year or so.

Today was OZCLO nationals, and at recess off we went to Macquarie University!  After a caffeine/sugar stop at Macquarie Centre, we headed off to campus and found the building, then realised we had no idea what room the competition was in.    Eventually we found our teacher/he found us, and we found ourselves in a small room, the eight of us (two teams) with four rowdy North Sydney girls.

All I can remember for the first half-hour was loud conversation, loud, loud and irritation.  And utter frustration at the second question.

Thanks to Emily, Jenny and Dodo yay still in awe about coming first in state eeeeeee it’s a pleasure being on your team.

For some reason I went back to school for Extension History and it wasn’t as soporific as usual and I think I shall have to defer my poster-buying to tomorrow.

Wow reading my post bored myself.

This site.  Makes you want to kick things.  Cuss, strangle, stab, etc.

I actually read the entire first FAQ page wondering if this was some very exaggerated troll RPer…but nope.  Either they plan on taking this RP very seriously…or someone actually shares Santorum’s views.

If anyone reads that site, hopefully you’re at least progressive enough to realise ALL most of this person’s views are considered ultra-conservative/idiotic.

But the insinuation about socialists being racists grates me so much because I’m a left-left winger.  Not only is it hypocritical, it’s just plain wrong.

Also I’m guessing the “most of my gay friends” must mean ‘most of his nonexistent gay friends’.

Some gems I found on the site.

Respect, My Little Pony fandom.

Because that's what we've spent several weeks learning in Modern History...

And this one is a little mean…

edit – ARGH why is there an error in the 2011 3u answers?!  Okay, better get off this tumblr before I flood this post with a lot of ‘gems’; I’d probably end up screenshooting the whole site.

edit edit – I can’t resist.  Here’s the last one.

edit edit edit – I see why I can’t stop reading now.  All this idiocy…it’s sorta amusing.  In a ‘let’s find the most irrelevant and blatantly wrong reasons for social phenomena and try to annoy as many people as possible who aren’t male white-supremacist Christians who hate blacks, non-heterosexuals, sex, women, etc.’ sort of way.
