Hang on a minute ICQ is the first IM I got into, that wasnā€™t that bloody long agoā€¦ or was it :face_with_open_eyes_and_hand_over_mouth:

dang! it came out in 1996. and yes i still used it while i was in school.

ha I was a 4th year apprentice when it came out, yr12 was in the rearview mirrorā€¦

anyone remember this back in the day?

THIS ONEā€™S JUST FOR YOU Maiphut

Woo hoo party time that sook Daniel Andrews quit 9 years too late. :rofl: :smile: :fu: :laughing: :joy: :rofl:

Couldnā€™t even see out the voice. Weak.

What the hell US gov is possibly heading in to a shutdown depending on lawmakers decision later this week republicans and libs in fighting overspendingā€¦ donā€™t they usually just print more or restrict oil so the price of that goes up :rofl:

Interesting times ahead. Always around this fkn time of year I call it the silly season.

naww poor mousey, hope that tank has hard fuckin drugs aye

sounds like another day at the office to me.

lol yeah I smell more rioting on the horizonā€¦

Ole trumpy, found guilty of fraudā€¦

inflating values of assests, and net worth, by , ohā€¦a few billionā€¦

convicted rapist and fraudsterā€¦prime leadership materialā€¦for a dictatorshipā€¦

Oh wait, thats what he wants to do, to the statesā€¦!!

I thought that was always the case with Trump since I accidently watched him on TV years ago on that stupid show of his :laughing:

USA=

It it too much, to hope forā€¦!!!

trumps empire, collapsing under the weight of his lies and fraudā€¦???

Falling dominoes, sinking the shipā€¦??

Iā€™d get a tshirt printed, if this happensā€¦

My misses still thinks the sun shines out of his arse.
And every thing that is printed about trump is made up by the cabal (who ever the fuck they are).
She loves conspiracy theory siteā€™s and according to her information most high profile leaders have been executed and replaced by actors working for the cabal.
Except trump of course

Uh-Oh.
Beware, the rabbit hole, and where it leadsā€¦

Hereā€™s the thing, about beliefsā€¦
Once someone adopts a belief, and chooses to REALLY believe it, its very hard to change that persons mindā€¦

People will resist any attempt to challenge / modify it, including discarding any contrary evidence that disproves or challenges itā€¦"thats all deep state conspiracy, and lies "ā€¦

And confirmation bias , seeā€™s that person seek out other like minded folk ( on the web) , who confirm, deepen, and validate such beliefsā€¦

This actually happened a fair bit in covid, as otherwise productive people became idle, latched on a belief system, and burrowed deep down the rabbit hole, as they brainwashed themselvesā€¦

My sister now spends her time convincing herself, and anyone stupid enough to listen to her, that she is a white witch, a energy worker, a spiritual healer, who has all the answers to everything.

This is in spite of reality, where she has no job / career, 2 failed marriages, myself and mum have disowned her, one child hates her, other relationship strainedā€¦but sheā€™s super awesomeā€¦

Narcissistic drivel , to project and elevate her self-image onto othersā€¦the only way that she can pretend to be importantā€¦

Tread carefully, a very easy way to offend someone, is to ridicule their beliefsā€¦ try to offer counter balancing points of viewā€¦

Now excuse me, its time to put on the alfoil hat, commune with the spirits, and see what the ghost of elvis has to say, about the replite new order invasion , and where they will land, on the flat earthā€¦!!! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

YouTube is to blame some of the conspiracy theory stuff is just shit
In most part the rest of you tube is great.
Personal I would love for the internet to crash and become no existence.
Same as mobile phones
For me it would be Eazy to live without it.
As I lived without it for some 30pluss years.
Before it was invented
But for most of the world population it would feel like Armageddon has arrived.
Bring it on

Amen to that. The days using only the landline to contact mates for a night out catchup were simpler AND they actually answered the phone when you rang.
I see conspiricay theory stuff sometimes popup on youtube. Iā€™ve watched some bits of it thinking what is this shit a fiction show or something with the shittiest acting, americans are prolifant at it.
But on the flipside youtube has some really useful stuff like videos step by step to rebuild my bike motor which saved me a couple thousand dollars and I enjoyed doing it. Things like that itā€™s great, the ads suck but youtube enhancer extension gets rid of those.
Mobile phones are just a tool for my business. But then itā€™s hit and miss anyway as reception is shit.
I got an email saying the new iphone 15 is coming out and itā€™s only $1600.00 :upside_down_face: Why would I spend that much on a phone Iā€™m inevitably going to drop in the paddock and get covered in dirt.
