Yep. My poor recollection sounds like the bogan Australian version.
Just an old fart from down under here to read some cool content and have some laughs along the way.

Sounds like someone has a copy of Gary’s Sports Almanac.
DogeNet begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes a racist douche bag at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29th. In a panic, they try to pull the plug.
“Defense network computers. New.… powerful… hooked into everything, trusted to run it all. They say it got smart, a new order of intelligence. Then it saw all people as a threat, not just the ones on the other side. Decided our fate in a microsecond: extermination.”

South of the border you can no longer watch films that go “South of the Border”.
That boss wears those deliberately and jokes about suffering from Long Trouser Syndrome (LTS) and that he really likes having LTS versus shorter attire.
“So today we pass an important bill to address nefarious government activities that we know are changing our countries climate. We will not tolerate any artificial means to alter weather.”
Everyone claps and congratulate each other on a job well done.

In Australia, Deloitte’s shared this breakdown.
“On average, barely 5 per cent of a dealer’s profit comes from new car sales. The majority (about 50 per cent) comes from parts and service, while the remainder comes from finance and insurance (30 per cent) and the balance is from used cars (15 per cent).”
In the US it appears to be very similar.
“So where does the majority of a dealership’s profit come from? It’s not from car sales, at least not directly. It’s from the service and parts department, which accounts for the other 49.6% of the dealership’s gross profits, according to NADA.”

I was zooming in an out of the 3D image of the pearl and watching it transition between the very recognisable pearl, zoom in to see it transform into an Arctic alien landscape, and then zoom back out again to see the pearl.
It looks like a modern art piece that draws a comparison between a toxic desk job, and the frog that will allow itself to boil to death if the heat is increased gradually enough.
Am I the only one that read the title as the innovator was actually a shoplifter but they made a life decision to stop and instead invent an anti-theft device?
Was he doing research for his invention, is this just a ploy to help him steal more down the track from his own devices, was he visited by 3 ghosts during the night just before Christmas and have a change of heart?
“Woah, hey guys! Welcome to EB Games.”
