Well the younger ones will have a differing view to everything than us Karrots. We are more 'experienced' though so know Best lol !!! 

my daughter I just framed up , to work in the courts this year as a 'learned ' person, BUT I still know best lol !!!!! 

The greatest problem in young people is they want everything NOW, rather than work towards it over a period of time like the previous generation. New car at 20 ?? unheard of in our day, but commonplace now. 

The new generation certainly have new thoughts on things. The old boys (like $bill ) there posting, are very bitter it seems . Not much good on a thread Karrots , as just a political comment so give it the flick. not very constructive.

Still waiting for the answer. 

Here was my initial question 😁

Quick question, no harm, no gain, just facts, just give a rough age ish.

Boomer or slightly younger?

Ps could be extended to this whole thread. 

General age of this thread? 

Of course Gospel my mate, a student, whom we agree on some things and not on others. 

The younger generations are the FUTURE. Like it or lump it, its a FACT.

Gospel is in his mid 30's  and a millennial. Still feels very young! around these places.

Later found out she got out Mormon Church about three months before Labour Party list selection.

A couple of Mormons came around to my place one lazy Saturday afternoon last summer. Front door was wide open & only the screen door was closed and locked between inside & outside. I was sitting in my lazy boy chair with a clear view of the front door when I saw two young lads dressed up quite smartly walk up to the door.

They knocked. Without even bother getting up I said "What do you want?".

They spoke back through the screen and said they wanted to talk to me about Jesus Christ. I replied "Oh Jesus, isn't he dead?".

They then said that's what they wanted to talk to me about because they believe he's coming back to life.

As sarcastically excited as I could sound I said "Oh wow really? ...... Well when he does bring him around, I'd like to have a chat to him directly".

Oddly enough, it was at that point in the conversation that the two young lads decided to leave my doorstep & exit my property.

I'm still waiting for Jesus to turn up. 😄

Hey @aquaman

As you know we are mates that go back quite a few years now. While we don't always completely agree on subjects, most of the time our views mesh together quite well.

With that & just as a precaution, I decided to go ahead & take a Covid swab of your first post in this thread.

The results of that swab have now been returned & it appears that you have little to worry about!

So don't be afraid to get out there & spread your legs as Hipkins has suggested.

I just tell them I'm Catholic - they seem to bolt fairly fast once I say that.

Disinformation is, of course, subjective.

Saying Jacinda is failing as a Prime Minister is a fact to me, but probably disinformation according to her own government.

Rang talkback this morning Charles, the idiot host, John somebody thought we should all be in lock up for 4 weeks and just be done with it, needless to say by the time I finished I was described as a radical. I'm out everyday exercising one hour walking muzzle free. I look forward to catching the China virus, it holds no fear to me. In fact I told the idiot host on the radio that if he new anyone with the virus to send them to me as I want to catch it. Seriously though there is method to my madness. I have been in training now for some time, reinforcing my immune system, in fact these last two days soaking up sun loading up on vit D. Also I would rather fight it on my terms, ie in the summer. I say bring it on, no dodgy experimental de population drug for me, I will stick to God given natural immunity anyday.

Are suicides up in NZ? They sure are here.

Don't think we'll know for a few years. Latest confirmed data is 2017 I think because it can take the coronial inquiries 2-3 years to be completed. Anecdotal reports of increase in suicidality last year.

Provisional figures (per 100,00) for the year through June 2020 were well down on the previous 2 years.

Figures for the year through June 21 should be out any day.

LifelineNZ reported a 25% increase in calls and texts during lockdown last year though they said those were mainly concerns about the impact on relationships and anxiety about money and accommodation as well as increased calls related to self-harm.
