Another day, another round of vindictive and regressive policy from this government.

registrations going up
fuel tax going up
public and active transport slashed by $1bn
15 new, uncosted roads announced

Remember when these guys campaigned on the cost of living?

In fact, my SUV has as much boot space as my mate's ute,

So, you drive a big fuckoff SUV, but are having a rage about utes?

[–] Rangelus 3 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Nope, it's large but not "big fuckoff", it's pretty normal. Double cab utes actually don't have that much space, unless they are an enormous American style pickup.

And again, don't mistake disagreement with anger. I'm not raging at you for wanting a ute, I'm voicing my opinion that they are, in most cases, silly.

No, you're definitely angry, otherwise you'd have realised I'm winding you up at this point and done something productive with your time.

But someone is wrong! On the internet! lol

I'm waiting for something to finish at work, this is about as productive as I can be right now.
