Saying no is so freeing
In a couple of weeks they're removing scanning and the vaccine pass mandate for eating/drinking places because the Aussies and returning residents - like a friend of mine who just came back from Germany - can't eat out. Omicron is still peaking down here though so no way am I going to relax my vigilance as I'm terrified of long covid and side-effects to the brain. We've decided not to go to the family wedding next month because weddings are classic spreader events, and also guests have to wear formal attire and we don't have any. If I still had a black suit, I'd cross-dress like I used to for formal occasions, but I really can't be bothered. We will hardly know anyone there and dancing isn't our thing, so I'm relieved at the decision.
Which word do you almost always mispronounce? Which word do you always mistype?
"Statistics" is always hard to say, and also a bit prone to typos.
Which body part do you wish you could detach (or at least reposition), and why?
Definitely boobs. I didn't get them till my 20s and wish I never had. I'd detach the bastards and never put them back. Seriously, other mammals only have them if they're feeding young, so why do we have to put up with them regardless? Really bad design flaw, along with a few others I could name.
Pineapple on pizza: yay or nay?
Yay: I love it: the mix of sweet with rich savoury flavours.
Should taxpayers have the option to explicitly say what they don’t want their tax money spent on?
No: too hard to implement, and some not-very-exciting things might never get funding.
What is the worst smelling place you've been to?
Rotorua with all the sulphur, but after a day or so you get used to it, and then it's a fun place to be.
