But you ignored that part. As well as everything else I had written.
You're the one making assumptions here. Or you're being deliberately obtuse just to pick a fight on the internet. Either way, fuck you for being nasty to me when all I was trying to do was talk about the subject of the thread.
I think they want rail between suburbs and cities. Definitely if there was rail direct from Porirua to Lower Hutt a huge amount of people who live in one place would suddenly be willing to work in the other, or vice versa.
I want to be clear I think it's fairly annoying and potentially dangerous to glue oneself to a major arterial road. That said, the goal is to annoy people like you until you stop driving and start taking the train. It'd be a better plan if the trains weren't wildly unreliable.
If I can say shmutzfangmatten then I can say Papakangahorohoro. I bet half the people complaining wouldn't be if they were trying to name it for a (hypothetical) historical German doormat factory instead of giving it a perfectly cromulent Maori name (I think something to do with earthquakes?).
I went on Edge, logged into Facebook, then proceeded to google various horse related things and visit the resulting websits. Now my ads are all about horses. I don't own a horse, never been especially into them. But they're nice and inoffensive in my feed.
I'm ok with franchise cafes in general. Sometimes you're travelling and tired and don't want to think about food. It's nice to be able to go somewhere and default to a known food option.
But Wishbone sucked. Their food wasn't worth the price at all.
Peter Jackson has bought the land on Shelly Bay. No development. I hope he builds penguin habitat.
