I had a nightmare last night that the machine used in the pike river mine disturbed and released some creatures from Doom/Quake

The Book of Mormon is pants-wettingly brilliant and when it opens in NZ next March you all have to go.

Their paper ad was actually annoyingly effective today. NZH ad cover that just says "The Mormons Are Coming" with a date. With "Mormons" right on the fold, so you see it repeated over and over.
So I'm like, okay, wtf. I know it's an ad which instantly means I don't want to know. But what fucking Mormons are coming? So I open it up and I see "Oooh, it's production. Yeah, that makes sense. Fucking paper." Then someone asked me who the Mormons are, which was a fun story to tell, so it worked out.

WTF - did it start when the specific policies were implemented, when he was appointed Chancellor, or when the various oppressive supporting laws crept into play (Eugenics, euthanasia etc)?

December 1941. The author would know that if she wasn't ignorant of what the Holocaust was, which is the ironic bit.

It's like how people say it took the US 6 years to get a man on the moon. Everyone knows it only took them 3 days to leave Earth and travel to the moon. Just because you commit to a plan and start building and testing rockets 6 years earlier, doesn't mean you're actually "putting a man on the moon". I would know, I once memorised "July 1969", and I'll be damned if some journalist (especially a woman) is going to tell me 1963.

Concentration camps for "undesirables" began being built in 1933 (Dachau), and the government began "isolating Jews from civil society" in the same year. Sure, the "launch" of the Final Solution wasn't until the end of 1941, but there was a plan in place and the building of camps to get rid of certain people was in progress from 1933 onward. You can't send people to concentration camps [take a rocket to the moon] without having the camps [rocket] ready in the first place - they didn't build them overnight.

Sure there were concentration camps and Einsatzgruppen conducting mass killings of all sorts of people before then, but wiping out the Jews wasn't official state policy until Dec 41. The state trying to exterminate the Jews is the Holocaust bit. To use your example, people were experimenting with rockets for years but the moon program started when Kennedy made putting a man on the moon govt policy. You can't say "nah, the Nazis had V2 rockets in 1945" because that wasn't part of the "putting a man on the moon" program.
Fuck, always the Nazis |

I was just walking past a Hallensteins store in the mall at the exact moment a dude picked up an armful of clothes and walked out with them.. I took a few pics, but they were from the back, and suggested to the solo store clerk that they'd probably have his face on cctv.. but nah, they don't have one. Oh well, dude has new gears for tonight.

So I got asked how to change the ringing tone on one’s desk phone. My answer was simply “just press transfer, 111 and use the volume control to select”.
Queue them Picking up the handset, pressing transfer then dialling 111.

I think context is important as the campaign doesn't seem to be claiming to be representing anything Maori nor operating in a Maori space.

TIL: There is no wavelength of monochromatic light for magenta. I knew white was a mix of all, and I knew of RGB and CMYK, but missed the part where magenta was the odd one out for being a construct of our brain (extra-spectral).

Or you could just take your basket out of the store and bring it back after dumping the items in your car, like you would if you had a trolley full of stuff and really didn't want any more bags?
Hey genius, go put some in your car right now.

Westpac are dropping and moving from Visa to Mastercard. That's fine except, due to how we put everything on the credit card so puchases come out of our mortgage offsetting account (split floating+fixed) up to 50 days later (and get the points), it's not going to be fun updating all the direct debits/apps/websites that we purchase through.
Ah well, wonder if we then get Apple pay - something not offered with Westpac's Visa.
