Any electricians that can answer this.
I had my switchboard replaced and had a new earth peg added (it was previously earth through the cold water pipe). An inspector needs to sign this off. Should this be signed off before it is used? Or what timeframe should it happen in? I have contacted the company a couple of times. First they said Covid had slowed it down (fair enough), and the second time he sent an email saying he had contacted them. That was 2 weeks ago. I'm trying to find out how urgent it should be before I go back. |

So with how hot the maximums for Aussie got last summer, spooky red sky from fires and all, what's the bet summer 2020/2021 is going to go "Hold my beer"?

Fuck the lakers, but I am cheered by the fact that they were boosted to victory today by starting guard Alex Caruso, who clocked in with a +20 plus/minus game for a ring. What a story.

Half of you probably already know who this is. I just haven't gone out looking, but I may not have to wait for much longer

Can anyone recall a computer game/Tron-like book popular in the 80’s written by a kiwi author?

I swear for at least half the movie Murder Mystery Jennifer Aniston's face is just deepfaked in.

I guess being racist is cool and acceptable again thanks to Sacha Baron Cohen. The world continues to make no sense.
|
26th October 2020, 13:01 | #42223 |
|
Can you elaborate?
I think Cohen is just smarter than us.

Seeing as you're not allowed to have a white guy play the voice an Indian character on The Simpsons but SBC can openly mock the great Kazakh people, there seems to be a slight contradiction in the current social culture.
Maybe he's talking something along these lines. SBC is funny AF. |
26th October 2020, 16:52 | #42225 |
|
the entire film uses the mockery of Kazakh people and their culture as its foundation. Is it any different from a minstrel show?

It would be if Cohen's version of a Maori was Billy T in Came a Hot Friday.

But also, I'd wager Cohen's audience outnumbers his xenophobic bigoted victims perhaps 100:1? ... 1000:1? And how uncritical must one be to come away from the movie feeling virtuous for supporting a fight against bigots, but then you turn to your mate and say "vvvery nice!", and they say back "waawawewa! you fuck my goat!". At least the white trash American knows their position on racism. |

Minority vs other minority racism at this stage is still a grey area because both groups involved can be subject to racism themselves, unlike white people. So yeah I guess a free pass.

It's all in the ball park of "being racist".
Dumbo’s crows or Lady and the Tramp’s Siamese cats. "The Birth of a Nation" blackface. "Memoirs of a Geisha" getting a Chinese woman to play a Japanese woman. Shawn Wayans and Marlon Wayans playing two Cali Valley Girls in "White Chicks" Australian comedian Chris Lilley playing a dumb Tongan boy. SBC playing an exaggerated Kazakh It's all on the same gauge, it's just the degree that matters, and that's a measure that changes over time. There's no free pass, there's just what's acceptable right now.
