I had a garage sale one day and put up a sign saying everything MUST GO 👍 Had a snooze on my chair sure as shit woke up a couple of hours later and literally everything was gone 😂😂.
Sydney trains are double deckers. Theres upstairs and downstairs section to sit in. The end of the carriage is where the doors are and a few seats there as where you saw the bike.
@@mebeme007 Melbourne did briefly try them, an older design, so they seem to fit your infrastructure. They are obviously taller and you have a broader gauge. I can't remember why nothing happened that you didn't finally adopt them. They hold many more passengers in greater comfort, with reversible seats so people can choose to face each other or the direction of travel. But holding more people they are a bit slower to load and unload. Double decker trains exist around the world but these are the best design by far IMHO. The Paris RER outer suburb trains are most similar. There are some shockingly bad designs, like in Chicago and Toronto, who really need to look at Sydney's design. The Sydney trains perfected the design long ago. The wide automatic doors are at each end level with the platform with no steps. Next to the entry area is a section with wall seating and standing for people with prams, bicycles and wheelchairs. The stairs tuck into each other at an angle, a short distance up and down, very quick and easy to get in and out. The trains are fast (up to 130km/hr), almost silent, smooth ride and well designed for Sydney's long distance commutes. A set of 8 holds over 1200 people (max 1750) 900 of whom are seated. Sydney is now adopting automated Metro style trains for greater frequency, faster acceleration (they are lighter) and shorter station dwell times, but I like the double decker trains for the longer commutes. Sydney's West, Blue Mountains and Wollongong are over an hour and half out and the Central Coast and Newcastle are over two hours, comfortable seating is important.
Yeah, when you see an Australian actor on an American show and they're playing an Australian for a change the American scriptwriters usually have them saying Australian slang that no one under the age of 80 still uses.
I've been here 20 years (I'm English) and my husband (Australian) and I are in our 40s. He still has to explain to me words and phrases he randomly resurrects from his childhood. Bushpig was an interesting one.
Funniest thing I've seen in the foyer of a double deck train (off peak, on the inner western line) was two people apparently moving furniture from one house/apartment to another. Both places must have been close to stations. On the 'sortie' I saw they moved a wardrobe, 'stripey bags' of clothes and a fridge, with the help of two trolleys . From what they were saying, this was their third load and had two more to go. Got to love those 'easy access' elevators at stations.
Bcse it’s got fluoride in it! Fluoride has the same toxicity as arsenic, but their excuse is that it’s in low dilution. Well over time you are accumulating this poison in your body causing all sorts of harmful effects and conditions( google it) Government have no rights to put this in the drinking water, and some say it was done on purpose. Just think about it…… putting low levels of a toxic substance that is known to absorb into the body for supposedly stronger teeth. Isn’t that what the fluoride in the toothpaste is for. You have all sorts of cancer and other diseases that no one can explain why
Yeah and Kmart here is the same more or less as target (our target doesn’t sell foodstuffs, only clothes, toys, housing accessories (all but significant furniture like a bed or couch, major appliances etc.) and general cheap things (though Kmart tends to be cheaper and has more very cheap things)
@@troycunningham8645 I'm too young to have been around for that, but when I was young I went to a Kmart in the states and remarked to my Dad that it was so strange. His response was "I got my .22 from a Kmart"
G'day Maye! The trains have stairs because since 1964 in Sydney we have had double Decker carriages. stairs to go down from platform level and ones to go up from platform level. The section at each end of the carriage is at platform level and where the doors are located... Cheers!
The tyres (tires) outside the mudguards (fenders) is illegal in Australia. It is also dangerous because if two vehicles collide one will climb up the other and get airborne.
@Blanchy10 Which already seems to happen a bit more often these days, unfortunately, cars colliding with each other side on and very quickly and easily becoming airborne.
7:50 It's so that anyone walking towards a glass door etc. knows that it's closed if they see a motif there, and then they don't smash through it and get cut up by the glass! xx (also, not on every house. Definitely not on mine!)
Actually, it's so stupid people and people who are too lazy to look at the way the door is designed, to realise if it's open or not, to stop those numbnuts from doing harm to themselves and blaming everyone else for their own stupidity or laziness. We live in a world with warnings, alerts, signs, stickered circles, etc, everywhere around us, all because too many stupid people exist. I say take the warnings and all that away, and let Darwinism sort out the wheat from the chaff.
Internal Combustion equipped items are not allowed on trains. Some states allow it if it is drained of all fuel and possibly have to have spark plugs removed. But honestly, I've helped people fix their lawn mower on a train in Melbourne before with no issues. Things turn bad if you start up the item on board.
We don't have a passenger rail system in Tasmania so there's no dramas there. We keep pushing for a train service but the state gov keeps saying no and just wants to build more prisons.
Ryan, Bluey was saying Bauple (Bor ple) A Bauple Nut is a Macadamia Nut. The Bopple or Bauple nut name is derived from Mount Bauple near the town of Bauple south of Maryborough. Many Macadamia integrifolia nut trees used to grow on and around the Mountain and many people on the Sunshine Coast use variations of Bauple or Bopple as the common name for Macadamia integrifolia.
But is that the true meaning, though. What the writers honestly meant to refer to. Or is it also a private joke/hidden innuendo, something for them to laugh about between themselves? Because there is also a different meaning for the actual word "Bumblenut" in the urban dictionary. "A Bumble Nut is other wise known as a small ball of faeces that has not been wiped properly and sticks to the hairs around your anus, and is left so long it has gone hard. The name derives from Bum-Ball-Nut but recent accents in recent times have thus changed this to Bumble Nut In school we went swimming and my mate Benyon tried to change into his trunks but his underpants were caught on his Bumble Nuts." They also had this in the urban dictionary is you scrolled down a bit. "Bumble my nuts (Bum•ble my nuts) the act of motorboating a nut sack. 1. Adjective- informal To blow air against a nut sack making a motor boat effect Bumble my nuts (Bum•ble my nuts) the act of motorboating a nut sack. "Dude I think she's a keeper. She bumbled my nuts until they were numb." 🤣🤣🤣 I'd like to think the writers were having their own little joke, too. 😜😂
House has been having a closing down sale for over 6 years that I know about. That lizard is commonly known as a goanna.😊 we have double decker trains so there’s seats upstairs and downstairs.😊
My sister crashed through an unmarked glass door and nearly damaged her knee beyond repair. It was 60 years ago, so the markings saved a lot of injuries.
With the woolworths thing the store clarified that the mangos were priced at a lower rate then was supose to be on the individual pricing but fixed to the regular price in the total amount. The 17.90 was correct but they still gave her the mangos for free anyway due the weird computer error.
When glass is clear, it’s possible to not know it’s closed and walk through it. People can get cut up pretty badly, hence the safety symbols to let people know there’s a glass door there.
If it is SAFETY glass, which is prescribed, they cannot walk through it ! It IS used as a warning though so you at least KNOW a door is there, the idea is to hire shoddy window cleaners!
That's an old Tangara train from Sydney. 20 odd years old and each carriage has a lobby that's level with the platform for prams, bikes and wheelchairs, then an upstairs and downstairs
Dude, you're in Indiana. Trains there have stairs too. Surely you occasionally visit Chicago. The Metra from Indiana-ish into Chicago uses gallery and highliner cars. The NICTD uses some highliner cars on the south shore line. And most Amtrak trains in Indiana use superliner cars (except for the ones headed into NYC, which use single deck cars).
Hahaha I picked up on the incorrect use of the apostrophe immediately. I found an unopened jar iSnack 2.0 recently whilst cleaning out my pantry. It is a combination of Vegemite and cheese.
The main reason for the fix it dog is I'm thinking that where ever this sign is its like Tassys council worker who you see time and time again standing in the middle of the road propping up their brooms.How wonderful it must be to be a council worker lol
The markings on the glass doors is for safety - means that you can see that it is a door and not an empty space so that you don't walk through the glass. Stairs on the train - there are double decker trains in Sydney. Yes, legal to take bicycles on train (not sure if this was a bicycle or motor bike/monkey bike).
If you look at the reddit comments Woolies have actually replied and explained what happened. Still not really ok but at least they addressed it. The mango price was supposed to be $1.90 each 😂
Yeah, I was gonna say, that's cheap for mangoes. Also the screen says 5 items, whereas there are only 4 item lines shown (so it is 5 if you count the mangoes as two items).
@@the_person_in_the_photo It all depends on which part of Australia you're in. After all, we don't all pay the exact same amount for mangoes, right around Australia. Those who live closer to mango growing areas are naturally gonna pay a lower price, and those further away would pay more.
@14:10 the problem is that the road is narrow, normally the "regular" truck driver's communicate with each other - ie. AA towing northbound with trailer from gate 5 to Ryan's Knob.... so the southbound truck would've waited at Ryan's Knob until AA Towing had passed, then said Lurch Removals southbound Ryan's Knob to Gate 5. Unfortunately the tow truck had to cut-in, the truck is fine, but the trailer has followed the tighter line and gone over the edge, despise the Armco barrier.... a possible solution is to chain off to the second truck and winch the trailer sideways as the tow truck continues forward... carefully.
The problem was that the truckie was being too polite and considerate and did not “lane-share” enough (go out wide onto the wrong side of the road around the corner, probably with headlights and hazard lights on with that much traffic around), in order to allow for the trailer to make the turn and stay on the road. Perhaps that heavy vehicle + trailer should not have been on that road, as Ryan said. Many of our roads do have resticted access for heavy vehicles where the road and traffic conditions could cause problems for both the heavy vehicle and other vehicles. Galston Gorge in Sydney springs to mind. Another location is when approaching the hairpin bend ascending the Great North Road from Wisemans Ferry heading back to Sydney, the driver of a rigid full-size bus or coach (typically 12.5 metres long - with no bend in the middle of the vehicle) has to go right out as close as possible to the fence on the wrong side of the road well before the hairpin, take the turn with the rear wheels and body of the bus very close to the barrier at the apex (inside) of the hairpin and, if successful, will go very close to the sandstone cutting on the wrong side of the turn exit, in order to get around in one go. Done that many times. Lights and hazards on, with a solid horn blast at the start. Either that or it requires a 3-or-more-point-turn if the driver doesn’t get it right, holding up traffic even more. Worst case would be getting stuck like that truck and trailer in the video.
zyzz is a crazy rabbithole into australian social media culture/body building culture, his videos were motivational and usually hilarious as he played this outlandish character. would be awesome to see you reacting to him!
Hi Ryan it's a double decker train. I have travelled on one of those when I was in Sydney back in 77 or 78 when I was holidaying in Sydney for 2 weeks.
Years ago, I was watching JAG and some guy was introducing himself as an Aussie, but his accent was terrible! He was also in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. His name was Trevor Goddard, sadly he passed away not long after Pirates was released. He was born in UK and was working in the US, but he discovered he could get more work if he played an Aussie. Every Australian who heard him, knew he was not one of ours. There’s just ONE American who managed to fool the whole of Australia! Kudos to you, Brian Jordan Alvarez! You nailed it!
It’s definitely cans of coke. 2.50 is how much a can costs at my work. A bottle out of a standard vending machine is $4.50 - 5 and a can at a standard commercial vending machine is typically $3-4.50
@@ianwalker5842Nor are there double-deckers anywhere else in Oz. Double deckers give much greater seated capacity but at the cost of longer dwell time - the time stationary at a station with passengers entering or leaving, thus slowing things down somewhat in peak times. That’s why our newest (driverless) trains (on a new, separate Metro network) are single-deck trains - less seating, more standing room, shorter dwell times, all giving the ability to move more passengers quickly, within peak hours. The double deckers still are great, though. Very comfortable, especially for longer trips and trips outside peak hours. Ideal for interurban trains from Sydney to the Illawarra, Blue Mountains and Newcastle.
Full length clear glass doors are prone to be mistaken as open when they are closed; think about what may be simply done to show closed door from open door. Much appreciated by ppl in a blind hurry.🙃🙃
If you're in that much of a hurry that you can't take 2 seconds to quickly glance at a doorway structure design to realise if a door is open or closed, then perhaps nature needs to be allowed to take its course. Take away all these warnings, alerts, signs, stickered circles, etc. I say. 😜😂
The woolies screenshot said '5 items' but he only added up four numbers? I think the shopper just didn't notice that one of the five items had scrolled off the top of the screen display?
Keep in mind here $1 and $2, are coins, and $2 is actually smaller size than all but 5c, unlike USA where notes are $1 up. And coins are all low value only. So here that "Loose Change is merely 4 by $2, 1 by 50c 2 by 20c and one 5 c, or other combinations of 20c and 10c coins. Or even 4 by $2 and 1 by $1, and get 5c change back. Not all that many coins needed from spare change at all. Quite different if you must accumulate all those many tiny value US coins, dimes, quarters and other small cents values if any.
There's only a mere fraction of difference in the circumference of the 5 cents coin and the $2 coin. (1.1 millimetre) However, the $2 coin is thicker in width than the 5 cents coin, making it feel a bit heavier as well. Plus the ridges on the side of the $1 and $2 coins have smooth gaps along the ridging also. All different ways for blind and vision impaired people to be able to feel the difference between the coins.
@@helmuthschultes9243 Well, YOU are the one who brought up the size difference between the 5 cents coin and the $2 coin. Yet, here you are, making an issue about relevancy. This feels like de-ja-vu. Because you've come at me over the exact same thing once before, and argued relentlessly about the so-called relevancy of my comments to you. When it's YOU that brings up these things in the first place. Or you ignore what's been said by Ryan in his video, and just want to argue for the sake of arguing.
@mebeme007 Nothing of the sort. The coin size is only relevant in regards to the bulk of loose changecrequired to come up with $8.95 for the " Loose Change Meal Deal", being discussed. As 4 x $2 and 1x $1 is really a small bulk of loose change due to the $2 being so small. Compared to cup full of loose coins needed in USA to put many dimes and quarters or other coins if any exist, as in USA $1 and up are only notes. The size was NOT mentioned to define the design of Australian coins. From my perspective you have gone on a tangent to the topic in discussion. If you have issues with my comments, then do not comment to them. End of responses by me to you...
@@helmuthschultes9243 In your very first comment, your exact words were... "and $2 is actually smaller size than all but 5c". YOU brought up the size difference. OK. As if that 1.1 millimetre of size difference has any bearing on the topic of loose change, at all. Yet, YOU decided to bring it up, as if YOU think it matters in some strange way. When it actually carries no significance, whatsoever, by the way. So don't go crying and foolishly accusing me of going off on a tangent. YOU started the irrelevant topic of size difference between those two coins. If YOU can't handle the responses you get, then don't post such pointless comments in the first place, then ridiculously accuse people of not sticking to the topics that YOU bring up.
KMart originally started in Australia as a joint venture between KMart USA and a local (Australian) retail conglomerate. They later parted ways, and KMart Australia is now locally owned and has nothing to do with KMart USA. I presume that KMart Australia licenses their logo from KMart USA, and you will notice that the KMart logo here is the old-time Kmart logo in America. KMart in Australia is booming, while I hear that KMart USA is languishing.
The Wooloes one looks fake. There's 5 items put through the scanner, but only 4 price totals. Something was either priced twice (like the mangos) or they scanned and removed 1.
If the system gets the price wrong, you go back to the shop, and they will redund your payment and you keep the food. This is a law for food sales. I know someone who always checked his receipt and often got refunds and free food. The wheelchair accident, yes he could sue.
Ryan, that Coke $1.80 would have been a 375ml can (ie a cup & a half). My local IGA still had a vending machine with $1.50 cans last time I looked. My family calls them idols: you give it an offering of money & hope to get something back. (Of course, they work much more often than real idols do.)
The " bumblenuts " thing is the kidsafe version of the term " numbnuts " which is applied to someone who is so unaware of everything (dumb) you are implying that they wouldn't know if their nuts were on fire...or being assaulted in any way.
Under Australian laws the wheels MUST be fully under fender cover. For example when I changed to steel spoke rims with wider, max legal, tyres on my Toyota Landcruiser, I had to put fibreglass fender extenders, pop riveted to the existing fender metal, to have the tyre fully enclosed. Partly it is to stop spray of dirty water from the tyres, which by the way maycalso need wider mud flaps, as standard ones will be too narrow. As well as water, mud and the like, tyres beyond being enclosed are liable to fling stones and rocks to hit other vehicles causing costly damage. Tyres beyond the vehicle outline are also extra hazard for cyclists, or even pedestrians too close the passing traffic, or causing damage contacting adjacent cars getting too close, due to rotating grinding action, where bodywork to bodywork contact would cause far more mild damage, possibly only minor scratches.
The electronic doors at shopping centres often close on me. I have come to the conclusion that I don't actually exist. It seems I'm a figment of my own imagination. 😂😂
EEEEEK!! My daughter just started work at a new House store a few weeks before Christmas. They have some kind of sale ALL THE TIME!!! I suspect if you could see more clearly, it probably says “UP TO 75% off”. Maybe 2 to 5 % of the stock would be that low, but the prices are pretty steep to start with. You can get a really good bargain if you know what’s on special.
Should be "Fix it, dogs". And the logo on the windows is so you don't walk/run through a clean glass door/wall. iSnack 2.0 was a variant of vegemite that was quickly discontinued after public backlash about the terrible name, then Kraft let people vote for a new name. I believe they went with Cheeseymite but I don't recall ever seeing it on shelves.
Kmart doesn't have groceries so we can't go there instead. I don't shop at Woolies as they are more expensive than Coles. I've done comparison shops and is often $50 cheaper at Coles; for the stuff I buy anyway.
Ummm, Kmart in Australia doesn't have much food stuff ie bread,meat, dairy products, fresh vegetables.... That's why we going to Coles, Woolies, Aldi (not that Aldi is much cheaper anymore) and IGA.
Woollies, where you pay for the employees tea break as well! House, 75% off the old stock from the outback stores! Coles, yes it's now gated, just to catch the slow shoppers! Real dog's dinner! Love the Goanna! Poor Rebel Wilson, too Australian! Twiggy Forrest, he tries to give his wealth away, but it keeps increasing anyway! Bumblenut, he's good mates with the Banksia Men and the enemy of Snugglepot! Training bike! 😁👍
I have never had that happen at Coles, very slowly. Kmart doesn't sell groceries here, they sell, clothes, toys, electricals, and the like. My daughter call kids crotch goblins and she has a book titled ""Go the f**k to sleep!" It puts the letters in where they should go when opened.
House has 160 stores across Australia, so it may be that this one store is closing, or if it’s a franchise, the franchisee is closing. Edit: A comment you missed said they asked and they’re closing for stocktake, so that’s a thing. I’ve only bought from them online.
I think that's Aus wide RE the wheels/tyres. I know down here in Tassie that's a thing and we probably have some of the most relaxed laws when it comes to that stuff.

“iSnack 2.0, Kraft's new name for its creamier take on Vegemite, was ridiculed so much that the US-owned company withdrew the name. The backlash, mainly on Twitter and other social networking sites, pushed Kraft to leave the product with no name while voters decided on Cheesybite in an online competition. 6 Oct 2009” Kraft took such a hit from meddling with our Vegemite, that it gladly sold it to Bega along with Kraft cheese and Kraft Peanut Butter. As far as I know, Kraft is no longer in Australia. All my years growing up, I thought Kraft was an Aussie company. It was only in the Noughties that I discovered they were American! Thankfully Vegemite has remained in Australian hands and there’s no more meddling with the product. (I believe Kraft tried to add cheese to it. 🤢

They tried to change the taste and name of Vegemite. I did not go well. Four day later the changed it back. Then shapes tried changing the taste of pizza shapes. That ended in a law suit.
The ISnack ijar of Vegemite is old.They tried to change the name of Vegemite after some American company bought it out and people complained because they started messing with the recipe and put stuff like cheese in it. It didn’t sell and was a marketing failure so they they changed it back and left it as it originally was. As a blow back they left it the original recipe and then labeled it odd things like Pizza for a joke. I still have a jar of Vegemite labeled Pizza.
Can't believe it myself but the first thing that has schoked me about american living on Ryans channel this far is - do americans really drink coke at work?! Provided by their employers?! I can't imagine that - coffee/tea yes - but coke?! Do you get candy/lollies as well? It isn't the movies, it's a workplace! Bad enough I guess kids in school there drink it, but adults?! 😂
I'm assuming it may be in a canteen environment, like what we Aussies used to have in some large factories and such, back in the day. And it may be one of many different types of drinks on offer. I'm sure they wouldn't just sell Coke and nothing else. People are entitled to choose to drink the stuff if that's what they are happy to drink. Things like canteens in the workplace may be more common in the U.S, where they have a higher population and having a canteen for much larger workforce would make a bit of sense if it's also somewhat profitable for the company. I know that in Germany, there are some well known companies that offer their employees hot meals for lunch. Probably no Coke on the menu, but they do love their sausages. 😜😂
@@mebeme007 No matter if it is a vending machine or in a canteen, it's still soda. That is strange. If someone wants to be unhealthy and bring a bottle to work for lunch of course, but the employer... Do they have free dental care in the US?! 😂 Water (sparkling and still), milk and juice sure, but soda... I shouldn't be surprised, they seem to have it in hospitals too, but somehow I was. Hot meals in canteens, yes I mean they are there for offering lunch and there is usually several options of hot meals, and healthy beverages. Certainly not all workplaces have canteens, but those that do. Otherwise you bring your own food and get coffee for free, fruit and maybe at times breakfast, snacks or sandwiches for meetings and such. Each to their own I guess! But it's easy to see why americans are on sugar rushes/get addicted if they have constant access, even at work.
@@GuinevereKnight Why can't people be offered the option of having a soda if they want one? They might just drink it once in a while and don't drink several bottles every single day. We shouldn't have to be sugar cops, trying to hide it away from people and stop them having the freedom to make their own choices.
@@mebeme007 My response disappeared, so I will have to just reply in short. There is a difference between what the employer does/offers and what the employee does on it's own. They don't offer soda, you can buy soda yourself out of the workplace naturally. We seem to view things differently in different countries and that the employer have different demands to live up to and also what they focus on. Here they don't hand out candy either, it's not seen as something the worker needs. If you want to bring candy that's up to you.
fYes It is illegal. Anything that protrudes outside the exterior of the vehicle's natural or manufactured structure is considered illegal. He will cope a hefty fine, given a notification to 'fix or re-instate to original specifications' within 21 days. This goes for; 'ride height'; 'noise levels' - including inside noise; and ALL exterior modifications that impact the vehicle's length, width and breadth. The tyres in question here protrude beyond the wheel arches by about a inch it seems.

The safety motif on the glass of sliding doors is to stop people walking into it if they think it's open.
Time for more people to pop down to SpecSavers, so they're not banging into closed doors so often then.
Far out.
It's truly sad how we have to keep putting warnings on packaging and such, needing to put stickers of circles on glass doors and so on,
Simply because there are far too many stupid people getting around.
Take all these alerts away and let Darwinism sort out the wheat from the chaff, I say. 😜

Sydney trains are double deckers. Theres upstairs and downstairs section to sit in. The end of the carriage is where the doors are and a few seats there as where you saw the bike.
They're a good idea, I think.
We need those types of trains in Melbourne, too.
Badly needed with the population size we have.
@@mebeme007 Melbourne did briefly try them, an older design, so they seem to fit your infrastructure. They are obviously taller and you have a broader gauge. I can't remember why nothing happened that you didn't finally adopt them.
They hold many more passengers in greater comfort, with reversible seats so people can choose to face each other or the direction of travel. But holding more people they are a bit slower to load and unload.
Double decker trains exist around the world but these are the best design by far IMHO. The Paris RER outer suburb trains are most similar. There are some shockingly bad designs, like in Chicago and Toronto, who really need to look at Sydney's design.
The Sydney trains perfected the design long ago. The wide automatic doors are at each end level with the platform with no steps. Next to the entry area is a section with wall seating and standing for people with prams, bicycles and wheelchairs. The stairs tuck into each other at an angle, a short distance up and down, very quick and easy to get in and out.
The trains are fast (up to 130km/hr), almost silent, smooth ride and well designed for Sydney's long distance commutes. A set of 8 holds over 1200 people (max 1750) 900 of whom are seated.
Sydney is now adopting automated Metro style trains for greater frequency, faster acceleration (they are lighter) and shorter station dwell times, but I like the double decker trains for the longer commutes. Sydney's West, Blue Mountains and Wollongong are over an hour and half out and the Central Coast and Newcastle are over two hours, comfortable seating is important.
Remember we had one of those trains on the Lilydale line years ago, it was not popular and went back to Sydney.@@mebeme007
And sometimes there are middle level seats!

Funniest thing I've seen in the foyer of a double deck train (off peak, on the inner western line) was two people apparently moving furniture from one house/apartment to another. Both places must have been close to stations. On the 'sortie' I saw they moved a wardrobe, 'stripey bags' of clothes and a fridge, with the help of two trolleys . From what they were saying, this was their third load and had two more to go. Got to love those 'easy access' elevators at stations.
Why not. 🤣🤣
If you can manage and have the strength to do that, it certainly saves on removalists or hiring a small van.

Its funny that some Australians still buy bottled water because our domestic water standard is above that for bottled water.
Took me years before I ever bought water in a bottle I refused the crazy notion. Until I had a kid and couldn't find a tap or bubbler
Bcse it’s got fluoride in it! Fluoride has the same toxicity as arsenic, but their excuse is that it’s in low dilution. Well over time you are accumulating this poison in your body causing all sorts of harmful effects and conditions( google it) Government have no rights to put this in the drinking water, and some say it was done on purpose. Just think about it…… putting low levels of a toxic substance that is known to absorb into the body for supposedly stronger teeth. Isn’t that what the fluoride in the toothpaste is for. You have all sorts of cancer and other diseases that no one can explain why
Fluoride! Google it! ☠️
FLUORIDE!!!!
Also kmart sells cheap consumer goods, not groceries like in the usa.
also they don't sell guns
Yeah and Kmart here is the same more or less as target (our target doesn’t sell foodstuffs, only clothes, toys, housing accessories (all but significant furniture like a bed or couch, major appliances etc.) and general cheap things (though Kmart tends to be cheaper and has more very cheap things)
Someone should put a “spot the difference between a spelling and grammatical error you nonce” sign there
@smalltime0 I remember when they did. In the 80s you still had them behind the sports counter at the back of the store.
@@troycunningham8645 I'm too young to have been around for that, but when I was young I went to a Kmart in the states and remarked to my Dad that it was so strange. His response was "I got my .22 from a Kmart"
G'day Maye! The trains have stairs because since 1964 in Sydney we have had double Decker carriages. stairs to go down from platform level and ones to go up from platform level. The section at each end of the carriage is at platform level and where the doors are located... Cheers!
The tyres (tires) outside the mudguards (fenders) is illegal in Australia. It is also dangerous because if two vehicles collide one will climb up the other and get airborne.
It's illegal in most(all?) of Europe. If they "tune" a car for wider tires they need to extend the fenders, too.
@@reinhard8053I was about to comment this. It is also the law in Australia ✌🏼
@Blanchy10
Which already seems to happen a bit more often these days, unfortunately, cars colliding with each other side on and very quickly and easily becoming airborne.
Also ... driving behind one of them could be unsafe , mud , stones , rain , koalas , spiders , lizards , crocodiles etc ‼️😎
7:50 It's so that anyone walking towards a glass door etc. knows that it's closed if they see a motif there, and then they don't smash through it and get cut up by the glass! xx (also, not on every house. Definitely not on mine!)
Actually, it's so stupid people and people who are too lazy to look at the way the door is designed, to realise if it's open or not, to stop those numbnuts from doing harm to themselves and blaming everyone else for their own stupidity or laziness.
We live in a world with warnings, alerts, signs, stickered circles, etc, everywhere around us, all because too many stupid people exist.
I say take the warnings and all that away, and let Darwinism sort out the wheat from the chaff.
Really? In what state?
Internal Combustion equipped items are not allowed on trains. Some states allow it if it is drained of all fuel and possibly have to have spark plugs removed.
But honestly, I've helped people fix their lawn mower on a train in Melbourne before with no issues.
Things turn bad if you start up the item on board.
We don't have a passenger rail system in Tasmania so there's no dramas there. We keep pushing for a train service but the state gov keeps saying no and just wants to build more prisons.
The worst part is last year Coles and woolworths broke their record for profit in 12 months, and I'd bet they do the same this year
If Australian BANK profits were pro rated to the population of the USA, they would be the wealthiest profit making companies on the globe.
Ryan, Bluey was saying Bauple (Bor ple) A Bauple Nut is a Macadamia Nut. The Bopple or Bauple nut name is derived from Mount Bauple near the town of Bauple south of Maryborough. Many Macadamia integrifolia nut trees used to grow on and around the Mountain and many people on the Sunshine Coast use variations of Bauple or Bopple as the common name for Macadamia integrifolia.
All the macadamia nut trees in Hawaii are descended from Queensland trees.
@@venderstratThat’s interesting info✌🏼
But is that the true meaning, though. What the writers honestly meant to refer to.
Or is it also a private joke/hidden innuendo, something for them to laugh about between themselves?
Because there is also a different meaning for the actual word "Bumblenut" in the urban dictionary.
"A Bumble Nut is other wise known as a small ball of faeces that has not been wiped properly and sticks to the hairs around your anus, and is left so long it has gone hard. The name derives from Bum-Ball-Nut but recent accents in recent times have thus changed this to Bumble Nut
In school we went swimming and my mate Benyon tried to change into his trunks but his underpants were caught on his Bumble Nuts."
They also had this in the urban dictionary is you scrolled down a bit.
"Bumble my nuts
(Bum•ble my nuts) the act of motorboating a nut sack.
1. Adjective- informal
To blow air against a nut sack making a motor boat effect
Bumble my nuts
(Bum•ble my nuts) the act of motorboating a nut sack.
"Dude I think she's a keeper. She bumbled my nuts until they were numb."
🤣🤣🤣
I'd like to think the writers were having their own little joke, too. 😜😂
I did not know that!
House has been having a closing down sale for over 6 years that I know about. That lizard is commonly known as a goanna.😊 we have double decker trains so there’s seats upstairs and downstairs.😊
My sister crashed through an unmarked glass door and nearly damaged her knee beyond repair. It was 60 years ago, so the markings saved a lot of injuries.
I've still seen people walk into doors with these stickers. My mum started putting surf brand stickers so nobody breaks the back door
With the woolworths thing the store clarified that the mangos were priced at a lower rate then was supose to be on the individual pricing but fixed to the regular price in the total amount. The 17.90 was correct but they still gave her the mangos for free anyway due the weird computer error.
That's right, they have to refund and let you keep the grocery item.
When glass is clear, it’s possible to not know it’s closed and walk through it. People can get cut up pretty badly, hence the safety symbols to let people know there’s a glass door there.
If it is SAFETY glass, which is prescribed, they cannot walk through it ! It IS used as a warning though so you at least KNOW a door is there, the idea is to hire shoddy window cleaners!
2.50!?! Where I am (South Australia) it is 5 dollars a bottle for Coke and 6.50 for water (only in vending machines, the stores are cheap)
House is offering 75% off their vast supply of "CLOSING DOWN" signs.
Pretty sure iSnack was a failure 😅 Ya can't beat good old Vegemite!
Yes it was when Kraft was American owned and they were trying to get Americans to eat it 😅😅
It's just the cheesy mite they offer now. Cream cheese to cut the strong flavour. Common for Vegemite and cheese sandwich so I guess they joined the 2
The iSnack was a name change for Cheesymite, which is a combination of cream cheese and Vegemite. I liked it.
But to come in and immediately change Vegemite seemed really rude. We were offended , even if we liked the taste we wouldn't buy it.
That's an old Tangara train from Sydney. 20 odd years old and each carriage has a lobby that's level with the platform for prams, bikes and wheelchairs, then an upstairs and downstairs
Dude, you're in Indiana. Trains there have stairs too. Surely you occasionally visit Chicago. The Metra from Indiana-ish into Chicago uses gallery and highliner cars. The NICTD uses some highliner cars on the south shore line. And most Amtrak trains in Indiana use superliner cars (except for the ones headed into NYC, which use single deck cars).
That truck needed a "Pilot vehicle" to warn of Wide Load Ahead!!
I would guess they're talking about cans 375ml cans of Coke, and 600ml bottles of water.
Hahaha I picked up on the incorrect use of the apostrophe immediately.
I found an unopened jar iSnack 2.0 recently whilst cleaning out my pantry. It is a combination of Vegemite and cheese.
yes disgusting mixture ..leave Vegemite alone .. saw Vegemite Brownie mix the other day .. YUCK !!
The problem with the self checkout was to do with the mangoes not being discounted, hardly a good excuse given it is mango season
The main reason for the fix it dog is I'm thinking that where ever this sign is its like Tassys council worker who you see time and time again standing in the middle of the road propping up their brooms.How wonderful it must be to be a council worker lol
The “We will” sign says “vicroads.”
House is a kitchenware place basically. Some have bedclothes too.
In Australia, commuter trains have a cocktail lounge upstairs.
The markings on the glass doors is for safety - means that you can see that it is a door and not an empty space so that you don't walk through the glass. Stairs on the train - there are double decker trains in Sydney. Yes, legal to take bicycles on train (not sure if this was a bicycle or motor bike/monkey bike).
If you look at the reddit comments Woolies have actually replied and explained what happened. Still not really ok but at least they addressed it. The mango price was supposed to be $1.90 each 😂
Technical issue 🤣 yes, a stuff up, but it happens
Yeah, I was gonna say, that's cheap for mangoes. Also the screen says 5 items, whereas there are only 4 item lines shown (so it is 5 if you count the mangoes as two items).
1.90 for one mango does sound about right
I thought that was cheap for a Mango. My local woolies are selling Calypso Mangoes at $3 each this week
@@the_person_in_the_photo
It all depends on which part of Australia you're in.
After all, we don't all pay the exact same amount for mangoes, right around Australia.
Those who live closer to mango growing areas are naturally gonna pay a lower price, and those further away would pay more.
@14:10 the problem is that the road is narrow, normally the "regular" truck driver's communicate with each other - ie. AA towing northbound with trailer from gate 5 to Ryan's Knob.... so the southbound truck would've waited at Ryan's Knob until AA Towing had passed, then said Lurch Removals southbound Ryan's Knob to Gate 5. Unfortunately the tow truck had to cut-in, the truck is fine, but the trailer has followed the tighter line and gone over the edge, despise the Armco barrier.... a possible solution is to chain off to the second truck and winch the trailer sideways as the tow truck continues forward... carefully.
The problem was that the truckie was being too polite and considerate and did not “lane-share” enough (go out wide onto the wrong side of the road around the corner, probably with headlights and hazard lights on with that much traffic around), in order to allow for the trailer to make the turn and stay on the road. Perhaps that heavy vehicle + trailer should not have been on that road, as Ryan said. Many of our roads do have resticted access for heavy vehicles where the road and traffic conditions could cause problems for both the heavy vehicle and other vehicles. Galston Gorge in Sydney springs to mind. Another location is when approaching the hairpin bend ascending the Great North Road from Wisemans Ferry heading back to Sydney, the driver of a rigid full-size bus or coach (typically 12.5 metres long - with no bend in the middle of the vehicle) has to go right out as close as possible to the fence on the wrong side of the road well before the hairpin, take the turn with the rear wheels and body of the bus very close to the barrier at the apex (inside) of the hairpin and, if successful, will go very close to the sandstone cutting on the wrong side of the turn exit, in order to get around in one go. Done that many times. Lights and hazards on, with a solid horn blast at the start. Either that or it requires a 3-or-more-point-turn if the driver doesn’t get it right, holding up traffic even more. Worst case would be getting stuck like that truck and trailer in the video.

The really sad thing about iSnack2.0 is that... the name was voted on by the Australian public. *facepalm*
Actually, just a small fraction of the Australian public.
It certainly wasn't voted for by the overwhelming majority.
Aldi Ryan. It's "sane" there and prices are reasonable.
Hi Ryan it's a double decker train. I have travelled on one of those when I was in Sydney back in 77 or 78 when I was holidaying in Sydney for 2 weeks.
I've never had Woolies quibble when you take it back though.
Sydney trains, whether old or new, are all double decker - walk down to bottom or up to the top.
Years ago, I was watching JAG and some guy was introducing himself as an Aussie, but his accent was terrible! He was also in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. His name was Trevor Goddard, sadly he passed away not long after Pirates was released. He was born in UK and was working in the US, but he discovered he could get more work if he played an Aussie. Every Australian who heard him, knew he was not one of ours. There’s just ONE American who managed to fool the whole of Australia! Kudos to you, Brian Jordan Alvarez! You nailed it!
It’s definitely cans of coke. 2.50 is how much a can costs at my work. A bottle out of a standard vending machine is $4.50 - 5 and a can at a standard commercial vending machine is typically $3-4.50
The stairs lead to the upper level of the train, there’s more next to it you can’t see leading down, most trains here are double deckers.
In Sydney, not in Melbourne.
@@ianwalker5842Nor are there double-deckers anywhere else in Oz. Double deckers give much greater seated capacity but at the cost of longer dwell time - the time stationary at a station with passengers entering or leaving, thus slowing things down somewhat in peak times. That’s why our newest (driverless) trains (on a new, separate Metro network) are single-deck trains - less seating, more standing room, shorter dwell times, all giving the ability to move more passengers quickly, within peak hours. The double deckers still are great, though. Very comfortable, especially for longer trips and trips outside peak hours. Ideal for interurban trains from Sydney to the Illawarra, Blue Mountains and Newcastle.
Nor in Adelaide
You would be amazed how many glass doors people walk straight into.
The trains in Sydney have an upper deck and a lower deck, hence the stairs in the trains
Full length clear glass doors are prone to be mistaken as open when they are closed; think about what may be simply done to show closed door from open door. Much appreciated by ppl in a blind hurry.🙃🙃
If you're in that much of a hurry that you can't take 2 seconds to quickly glance at a doorway structure design to realise if a door is open or closed, then perhaps nature needs to be allowed to take its course.
Take away all these warnings, alerts, signs, stickered circles, etc. I say. 😜😂
The woolies screenshot said '5 items' but he only added up four numbers? I think the shopper just didn't notice that one of the five items had scrolled off the top of the screen display?
It's so you can see a glass panel - TH-cam shows many people walking through glass panels
Keep in mind here $1 and $2, are coins, and $2 is actually smaller size than all but 5c, unlike USA where notes are $1 up. And coins are all low value only.
So here that "Loose Change is merely 4 by $2, 1 by 50c 2 by 20c and one 5 c, or other combinations of 20c and 10c coins. Or even 4 by $2 and 1 by $1, and get 5c change back. Not all that many coins needed from spare change at all.
Quite different if you must accumulate all those many tiny value US coins, dimes, quarters and other small cents values if any.
There's only a mere fraction of difference in the circumference of the 5 cents coin and the $2 coin. (1.1 millimetre)
However, the $2 coin is thicker in width than the 5 cents coin, making it feel a bit heavier as well.
Plus the ridges on the side of the $1 and $2 coins have smooth gaps along the ridging also.
All different ways for blind and vision impaired people to be able to feel the difference between the coins.

The coin size is only relevant in regards to the bulk of loose changecrequired to come up with $8.95 for the " Loose Change Meal Deal", being discussed. As 4 x $2 and 1x $1 is really a small bulk of loose change due to the $2 being so small. Compared to cup full of loose coins needed in USA to put many dimes and quarters or other coins if any exist, as in USA $1 and up are only notes.
The size was NOT mentioned to define the design of Australian coins. From my perspective you have gone on a tangent to the topic in discussion.
If you have issues with my comments, then do not comment to them.

In your very first comment, your exact words were...
"and $2 is actually smaller size than all but 5c".

As if that 1.1 millimetre of size difference has any bearing on the topic of loose change, at all.
Yet, YOU decided to bring it up, as if YOU think it matters in some strange way.
When it actually carries no significance, whatsoever, by the way.
So don't go crying and foolishly accusing me of going off on a tangent.
YOU started the irrelevant topic of size difference between those two coins.
If YOU can't handle the responses you get, then don't post such pointless comments in the first place, then ridiculously accuse people of not sticking to the topics that YOU bring up.
KMart originally started in Australia as a joint venture between KMart USA and a local (Australian) retail conglomerate. They later parted ways, and KMart Australia is now locally owned and has nothing to do with KMart USA. I presume that KMart Australia licenses their logo from KMart USA, and you will notice that the KMart logo here is the old-time Kmart logo in America. KMart in Australia is booming, while I hear that KMart USA is languishing.

If the system gets the price wrong, you go back to the shop, and they will redund your payment and you keep the food. This is a law for food sales. I know someone who always checked his receipt and often got refunds and free food.

Under Australian laws the wheels MUST be fully under fender cover.
For example when I changed to steel spoke rims with wider, max legal, tyres on my Toyota Landcruiser, I had to put fibreglass fender extenders, pop riveted to the existing fender metal, to have the tyre fully enclosed. Partly it is to stop spray of dirty water from the tyres, which by the way maycalso need wider mud flaps, as standard ones will be too narrow. As well as water, mud and the like, tyres beyond being enclosed are liable to fling stones and rocks to hit other vehicles causing costly damage.
Tyres beyond the vehicle outline are also extra hazard for cyclists, or even pedestrians too close the passing traffic, or causing damage contacting adjacent cars getting too close, due to rotating grinding action, where bodywork to bodywork contact would cause far more mild damage, possibly only minor scratches.
It's a double decker train. Up the stairs are more seats. Have a good week
Bottled water is a ridiculous price in Australia. Good thing our tap water is perfectly safe to drink.
I really hate how dog is used in the pejorative in Australia. It's a low class insult, and a total betrayal of such an awesome animal.
Yes it’s illegal, tyres have to be inside a wheel well. You can put an extension on the car wheel bay

My daughter just started work at a new House store a few weeks before Christmas. They have some kind of sale ALL THE TIME!!!
I suspect if you could see more clearly, it probably says “UP TO 75% off”. Maybe 2 to 5 % of the stock would be that low, but the prices are pretty steep to start with. You can get a really good bargain if you know what’s on special.
The giant tyres are illegal, especially since the tyres could come in contact with an adjacent car’s wheel!
Should be "Fix it, dogs".
And the logo on the windows is so you don't walk/run through a clean glass door/wall.
iSnack 2.0 was a variant of vegemite that was quickly discontinued after public backlash about the terrible name, then Kraft let people vote for a new name. I believe they went with Cheeseymite but I don't recall ever seeing it on shelves.
Kmart doesn't have groceries so we can't go there instead. I don't shop at Woolies as they are more expensive than Coles. I've done comparison shops and is often $50 cheaper at Coles; for the stuff I buy anyway.
Ummm, Kmart in Australia doesn't have much food stuff ie bread,meat, dairy products, fresh vegetables.... That's why we going to Coles, Woolies, Aldi (not that Aldi is much cheaper anymore) and IGA.

“iSnack 2.0, Kraft's new name for its creamier take on Vegemite, was ridiculed so much that the US-owned company withdrew the name. The backlash, mainly on Twitter and other social networking sites, pushed Kraft to leave the product with no name while voters decided on Cheesybite in an online competition. 6 Oct 2009”
Kraft took such a hit from meddling with our Vegemite, that it gladly sold it to Bega along with Kraft cheese and Kraft Peanut Butter. As far as I know, Kraft is no longer in Australia. All my years growing up, I thought Kraft was an Aussie company. It was only in the Noughties that I discovered they were American!
Thankfully Vegemite has remained in Australian hands and there’s no more meddling with the product. (I believe Kraft tried to add cheese to it. 🤢

Weve had a rough surface sign on our riad for 2 years. Even after it was graded, the council left the sign there! Must be for the future?
The ISnack ijar of Vegemite is old.They tried to change the name of Vegemite after some American company bought it out and people complained because they started messing with the recipe and put stuff like cheese in it. It didn’t sell and was a marketing failure so they they changed it back and left it as it originally was. As a blow back they left it the original recipe and then labeled it odd things like Pizza for a joke. I still have a jar of Vegemite labeled Pizza.
It's a double decker train.
Can't believe it myself but the first thing that has schoked me about american living on Ryans channel this far is - do americans really drink coke at work?! Provided by their employers?! I can't imagine that - coffee/tea yes - but coke?! Do you get candy/lollies as well? It isn't the movies, it's a workplace! Bad enough I guess kids in school there drink it, but adults?! 😂
I'm assuming it may be in a canteen environment, like what we Aussies used to have in some large factories and such, back in the day.
And it may be one of many different types of drinks on offer. I'm sure they wouldn't just sell Coke and nothing else.
People are entitled to choose to drink the stuff if that's what they are happy to drink.
Things like canteens in the workplace may be more common in the U.S, where they have a higher population and having a canteen for much larger workforce would make a bit of sense if it's also somewhat profitable for the company.
I know that in Germany, there are some well known companies that offer their employees hot meals for lunch.
Probably no Coke on the menu, but they do love their sausages. 😜😂
@@mebeme007 No matter if it is a vending machine or in a canteen, it's still soda. That is strange. If someone wants to be unhealthy and bring a bottle to work for lunch of course, but the employer... Do they have free dental care in the US?! 😂 Water (sparkling and still), milk and juice sure, but soda... I shouldn't be surprised, they seem to have it in hospitals too, but somehow I was. Hot meals in canteens, yes I mean they are there for offering lunch and there is usually several options of hot meals, and healthy beverages. Certainly not all workplaces have canteens, but those that do. Otherwise you bring your own food and get coffee for free, fruit and maybe at times breakfast, snacks or sandwiches for meetings and such. Each to their own I guess! But it's easy to see why americans are on sugar rushes/get addicted if they have constant access, even at work.
@@GuinevereKnight
Why can't people be offered the option of having a soda if they want one?
They might just drink it once in a while and don't drink several bottles every single day.
We shouldn't have to be sugar cops, trying to hide it away from people and stop them having the freedom to make their own choices.
@@mebeme007 My response disappeared, so I will have to just reply in short. There is a difference between what the employer does/offers and what the employee does on it's own. They don't offer soda, you can buy soda yourself out of the workplace naturally. We seem to view things differently in different countries and that the employer have different demands to live up to and also what they focus on. Here they don't hand out candy either, it's not seen as something the worker needs. If you want to bring candy that's up to you.

fYes It is illegal. Anything that protrudes outside the exterior of the vehicle's natural or manufactured structure is considered illegal. He will cope a hefty fine, given a notification to 'fix or re-instate to original specifications' within 21 days. This goes for; 'ride height'; 'noise levels' - including inside noise; and ALL exterior modifications that impact the vehicle's length, width and breadth. The tyres in question here protrude beyond the wheel arches by about a inch it seems.
