Thankyou for restoring my faith in you, mate. I hope the girlfriend shopping issue works itself out (perhaps she should use her phone hotspot to connect her shopping machine if she wants to be scammed? I use mine for some stuff on occasion, if and as necessary, and my boyfriend and other housemates are thus not affected) and I hope the rest of your weekend is excellent.

Doesn't even need to be coastal for that to happen. Bloody ridiculous prices all over.
Ha! Here I was thinking it was some sort of garbled "your mum" joke.
I haven't found quotation marks working on duck duck go either.
I wear cheap croc knockoffs. Once I got real crocs as a christmas present, and they weren't as comfy as the cheap no name brand notcrocs.
That said, still prefer leather sandals, they are more comfortable still. But that could be because I live in a hot climate.
You can see where the four screws that mounted the original are sticking out. What a pity they didn't put holes where there are meant to be holes.
Well, I doubt they plan to ever buy HP again.
Lol ?!? My girlfriend did no such thing! (My boyfriend didn't either!)
Tell yours to use more small local shops, for the sake of the environment. Honestly it isn't tough to shop without ads that steal your money, credit card, and identity.
I rarely see them, have never clicked one.
I suspect very few people do.
Yep, yanks tend to think they can just police everyone into doing it their way.
If you're now in Australia, it is polite to ask "where y'from" as a starter convo, as knowing who your mob are is part of getting to know you. An Aussie would find the answer [insert country name here] as pretty standoffish (sort of an "I don't want to talk about it or be friends with you" answer) but if they were determined to get to know you they might then ask patiently "where in Canada?" or ask about the part of Canada you might originate from, knowing it is a large place. This helps them to understand who you are and work better alongside you in big projects in future. Unfriendly people aren't really worth working with or helping out if the going gets tough.
Think of it this way: If you have spoken four words to someone "Canada" and "why do you ask?" they are less motivated to cover your shift. If they know you are from that cool place with several excellent bands and a beautiful landscape and you often chat about whales or whatever, they might try to help you out. Also, how cold and bleak your life would be without the occasional conversation with someone at least once a day. Many people live alone.
How do you first get to know your work colleagues? Ask about a sport or the weather? Or ask about something else? Is small talk and office acquaintances not a thing where you are from?
Sorting the safe from the scam seems a terrible way to spend an arvo playing roulette, but sure if she feels she must. Personally I have been very successful searching without those advertisements. You can hover over them as you go past, and their links are invariably complex enough to nope the hell out. I don't need that sort of risk in my life.
If she honestly wants to shop H&M (USian I'm guessing?) or David Jones or whatever, she should go to their website. Even the most humble local shops have websites these days, my local custom paper seller has, like most shopfronts, had its website long before the shopfront arrived in the world. And buying from the small and local is better for the environment, better for your home town, and more reliable.
