Honestly, I tried to April fools all 3 of my kids separately and they saw right through it and the only ones to fall for it were all the lefties on here who seem to have a generally negative outlook on life and are so serious that’s it’s easy to prank

It’s great to see you can lighten up with this post.

More lightening of our outlook in life makes all the challenges that pop up easier to navigate. Life doesn’t need to be just going from crisis to crisis!

And there is the middle road of practicality of using fuel when needed and due to cost pressures while tackling the bigger issues over a longer time frame and as technology and costs allow. More practical and less dogma.

That comment this morning was an April Fool's joke? I couldn't tell, it seemed to be of more substance than your usual posts

You know, I've been thinking long and hard lately, and taking in all the feedback that i've been getting, mostly from people who I now consider to be great friends and peers.

And I've come to the conclusion that they're correct. I've been going about this all wrong.

Petrol, oil, fossil fuels - that is totally the way of the future. Fuck all these pussies and cucks with their solar renewable woke fest, soy fairies that they all are. Ford Rangers are the minimum any man, and I can think of one shining example with world army knowledge right now, should have.

And wealth accumulation - FUCK YEAH. All these 99%ers with their hands out - why don't they put down their avocado lattes and do some real sacrifice, like me and my new mates.

So, truly, thank you Wiz, Rick, Inruin, Brownstone, ShaunJohnson7, Mr Drag and especially Frank for making me see the error of my ways.

I'm joining up to the ACT party and the Taxpayers Union right now.

Boy, will my life be so much better. Fuck everyone else!

Excellent.

Do you have a vege garden at home and a couple of shade trees? I can get you into Fed Farmers and get you some carbon credits

Oh, and just a word of advice. The Hilux 4x4 is 10x better than any of those other Remuera tractors

Federated Farmers!!! Yes please!!!! I've also heard I can have lunch with the great Shane Jones if I offer to pay for his shoe shining for the next month too?

No no, he's too busy up North trying to get the refinery restarted. Never mind that it couldn't refine out crude anyway

No one wants to come to the 'Naki anymore. I would have thought Chloe and Co would be here a lot with their school just down the road. That's where I get my crystals from. They dig them up and rebury them all the time.

Welcome to the club!

Now you have dropped the victim mentality and embrace personal responsibility you will find you are in control of your own destiny and can make positive things happen all by yourself, without worrying to much what the safety net of the govt does

I was down in Hawera earlier this year, and while driving over to New Plymouth for a visit, passing through Eltham I thought I detected the strong smell of patchouli and sandalwood in amongst the oil and homekill smells - that wasn't you was it Rick?

No, we're a bit further West at Omata. Don't get down south much, especially with a full tank of gas. Dangerous times.

That was probably the wokerati passing through and calling into the cheese factory for their Pecorino Romano.

Riddle me this:

In 2008 barrel prices were $145 of oil and retail 91 was only $2.10.

Now barrels are at $101 and retail prices are $3.30ish?

Something to ponder…

 

[Tokyo Warrior]

Mix of near term price peaks and annual averages?

Corruption and Super profits caused by Neo Liberalism.

NZ dollar was worth something before Jacinda!

It’s come out Hipkins has mislead the public and forced kids to potentially risk their lives getting jabbed against medical advice.

For Labours own good they need to get rid of their covid baggage (Hipkins), as he’s a damaged liability.

He was a useless minister of everything he touched, a useless PM and we won’t even mention him being a husband.

Isn’t there someone else for Labour that can be positive and forward looking instead of defending the past all the time?

We need a change of both man leaders coming up to the election!

I'm really starting to think you're getting paid by national or some other right wing party to spread this garbage.

Mm Shane Jones has been throwing a lot of cash around lately.

Geothermal and hydro get hijacked as "renewables" by the wind and solar brigade. They should be mentioned as stand alone technologies.

I agree that NZ needs more hydro and geothermal

Why can't those be advocated by the "wind and solar brigade" when by definition they're renewable energy?

The original line was tongue in cheek but since you asked. 1. Landlord with multiple rentals 2. Self employed with at least one business.

No way you'll be paying the same rates as ordinary folk. A lot will be creatively written off.

As most the same as you do. That's the nature of it.

As a Leftie that was previously self employed if he says otherwise he is absolutely lying. I paid my accountant to make sure I paid the minimum legally required. Every single large organisation does the same but also any contractor that has an accountant worth their weight. As a leftie I can admit this unlike some of the guys who like to play characters.

Me too, been contracting for 14 years.

Wow! So you are really a hidden self employed ACT supporter all this time!

I’m stunned

Latest Winston Peters post:

When are some in the media going to ask Hipkins why he said that he “didn’t see the health advice” on the risks to under 18s for the vaccine, then said he did see it but “it was too late”, then said he would’ve “done things differently” if he had seen it, then is now found to have put out a press release promoting boosters for kids – after he had seen the advice.


Peters says there is more to come… Hipkins is going to be picked apart in a death by 1000 cuts. Damaged goods!

This post reminds me of the shit I used to see on the hip hip forum I used to be. Your candidate of choice is shit so best case you can do is try discourage opposition voters from voting.

Surprised by someone like you Wiz who claims to be intelligent to be sucked in by this old charlatan. He has a policy for every single issue known to mankind and nothing will ever change.
