Welcome to the Melbourne Community Daily Discussion Thread.
Munich Christmas market! Much less crowded than Nuremberg, although less variety in the stalls.
This is great. Thank you. Is your focus Christmas markets on this trip?
Also that person in the bottom right look like they ate a lemon lol.
December and Jan are great times for us to take leave from our jobs, and we love coming to Europe. When we googled things to do in Europe at this time, Christmas markets popped up, so we’ve been going to a bunch but also doing other things. In Munich we went to two art galleries and a classical music concert, and we’re about to go to a town on a lake so we’ll do some walks around there.
Well I certainly appreciate the photos. I create Christmas tree themes every year at home as a fun little hobby and one of your photos inspired the theme for our 2025 tree.
Also your holiday sounds pretty great. I love going to galleries anytime I travel as well.
Took a few days off work last week, left pretty specific instructions on what to do in my absence.
Returned today to absolutely fuck all being done. I’m extra shitty as I’ve covered for others when they were sick/holidays and things progressed in their absence.
Looks like I’ll have to return the favour and be ‘too busy’ for everything until after Xmas.
Better or worse than when people enthusiastically and confidently do just ridiculous things when there was no need for them to take action at all? I’m going to be doing a lot of unpicking and detangling when I’m back tomorrow. I’m practising my patient face.
First day new job. Got here way too early. Please deity, don’t be a shit hole…
I bought a Terry’s mint-flavoured chocolate orange, with the thought process being hey, I like chocolate oranges, I like mint chocolate, let’s give it a go.
A week or so later I saw it in the cupboard and had a horrible thought: is it orange AND mint? What kind of monstrosity have I purchased here? Is this going to be like a Vegemite Tim Tam?
Upon closer examination I can confirm, no, just mint, but shaped like an orange because Reasons. So you can all relax, I’m sure that was stressing other people too.
This made me check the two I had and they are definitely orange. Then I had a brilliant thought, what if I somehow shoot them open with my salt gun?
Update: experiment did not work. Salt gun not powerful enough. Terry’s #1 is too heavy. Terry’s #2 will have more thought to it.
My tooths are now very clean. Which is good, but they don’t feel like my teeth anymore.
I like the new dentist I saw and am booked in for a torture session/filling soon. Why are teeth so poorly designed? And why don’t they come with a warranty?
