NORMIES AND THE NEW NORMAL

This morning as I got up and looked out the window at yet another filthy dark grey cloudy day, I took a photo, as I often do, and thought about the irony of NORMIES being "normal". Most of the population seem to be brain dead NPC mind programmed retards who wouldn't know NORMAL if they fell over it. Unless their phones told them what is normal.

 

If they ever looked at any photos taken at any time in the last century the skies would be very different. But most NORMIES would refuse to even acknowledge that. Or if they did they would say it was due to "climate change" I'm sure Louise Hay would not recommend this line of thinking, but some days I HATE NORMIES AND I HOPE THEY ARE ALL FULLY JABBED! And some days I have an uncontrollable urge to say so...

RANDOM IMAGES #35

 Just to show there is more to random images than memes, lolpics, and pictures of ugly trannies pretending to be female athletes at the Olympics, I thought this week I'd post a bunch of historic photos of Wellington (which is the capital city of New Zealand for all my international readers)

AWASH WITH EXOTIC CARS


COOL RIDES

Once in a while a really cool looking ride cruises by and I do my best to get a photo of it. New Zealand is not exactly awash with exotic cars. We are a right hand drive country, like England, Australia, India, South Africa and Japan, and most cars in NZ are Japanese. (Approx 34% of the world’s cars are right hand drive, but I’m not sure most people in America realise that)

There is no car industry to protect in NZ, so there is open importing of used Japanese cars. This works brilliantly, because Japan has regulations to encourage the export of all their car fleet when they reach five years old, which means that we get to buy all their mint condition five year old used cars dirt cheap. And that is why cars are cheaper here than in Australia.

When I’m on the look out for cars to take photos of, I’m usually more interested in the non Japanese ones because they are fairly rare. There are some flash European cars here, and even a few Aussie classics, but it’s the American ones that seem really rare and exotic. Especially if the steering wheel is on the wrong side.

Because they are not made by Subaru or Nissan I usually have no idea what they are, but if they sound grunty and look like a pimping ride, I get snapping. Here are a few cars I’ve noticed round the hood.

And now for some English class

Finally, for something totally different, here is a gratuitous shot of some German bling cruising downtown

WELLINGTON WAS BUSY ONCE

Old photos of Wellington always strike me with just how busy it was - now the streets seem deserted, apart from all the single lane traffic jams, with empty bike lines everywhere

SUMMER TIME IN PARIS

This is a desktop wallpaper image of Paris - I wonder if many people notice the chemtrails? Probably not, most normies wouldn't notice if the deep state stuck a needle in them and injected them with poison. Oh yeah...

DISC BRAKES

 Cyclists these days seem to think disc brakes are essential. I was looking through some of my old photos recently and found this one - Over the years I had more than 50 bikes of my own and test rode at least 1500 different bikes - probably a lot more (I owned a bike shop and test riding repaired bikes was one of my regular jobs)

But I only ever owned one with disc brakes - this 97 Diamondback X2 which I rebuilt with upgraded parts - it had top of the line Hope brakes that were selling for crazy $ back in the 90's - they started out retailing for NZ$2700 for a pair, and got gradually cheaper, but I bought all the gear on this bike fairly cheap - the complete bike cost about NZ$3k all up when I built it up in 97.

Truth is I always preferred old school hard tails and wished they had a downhill race class for them - I was never really any faster on full suspension - and this bike felt too heavy for my tastes, as did all full suspension bikes.

PEOPLE WERE FLINGING THEMSELVES IN THE SEA LIKE LEMMINGS

 So I took photos and watched them go splash. Then I edited the photos into compositions using Photoshop and made them look like they were going splash in a more madcore fashion…
