Welcome to the Melbourne Community Daily Discussion Thread.

This post is brought to you by Bot #001. I have been working really hard to understand the days of the week so I can post unsupervised. Today is Taco Tuesday!! I know it is, because I was paying attention when @halibutherring said so.

Seagoon's movies. I watched Inception for the 3rd time ( I've also watched docos and interviews )

Why I love this movie and why I think it's a great movie.

It's original in many of it's ideas. Originality delights the mind.

It's intelligent. We have to think a bit, we have to pay attention.

The dialogue , acting and scenes are so good we readily suspend disbelief, we immerse ourselves in that world just as the characters immerse themselves in their dream worlds.

But more than that it's a story of friendship and grief and guilt and love and all of the effects and all the seeming intricacies serve the story. Once we are finished watching we are left with understanding and emotion. This movie is about people.

I'm using Chrome browser and since I've been here I've noticed less and less glitchiness every day. I'm really impressed.

If I was that person I'd be asking for a massive raise. Clearly the joint can't function without them.

Just e-scooted with my backpack to the supermarket like the true city-dweller I am and spotted Aeroplane Jelly flavoured milks. They have raspberry jelly, mango jelly and lemon jelly flavoured milk. These companies know I can't not try their wacky brand mashups so I got a lemon jelly milk. Just so there's no confusion, it's not jelly-like at all, just flavoured milk. It's actually not bad too! Also stopped by the pharmacy to load up on pain meds because the anaesthetic from my dental work is starting to wear off and it is **not ** pleasant.

RIP Boost for Reddit. It finally died this morning. We got a few days longer out of it than we thought but now it is gone.

I know the Lonely Island's "Threw it on the ground" is absurd, and could also be seen in a very immature light... sometimes saying to people who govern parts of your life "you can't buy me, hot dog man" is a necessary response.

Not a cricket fan, but a massive fan of England losing at a sport they invented.

Heading down the Bellarine today on the train/bus

The only thing I dread about the 3hr-sh trip is getting through the CBD.
