FWIW we advise people to create trustee companies instead of putting themselves personally as trustees because one can change directors/shareholders without having the hassle/cost of transferring titles and redoing banking where new family members take over control of the“family assets”

A person who has never set foot in the US, whose funds in that country have already been irrevocably forfeited, is to be extradited for alleged copyright infringement (hardly a “real” crime), at whatever massive cost has already been incurred by NZ. KDC is an oddball but … really?!

Ha - I once convinced a court that a document I’d created was indeed mine because it was littered with split infinitives 😀

Thanks for sharing Tash. One of the commenters described the LLM as a psychopath. As much as this buys into the equally dangerous tendency to anthropomorphise LLMs, I’ve got to agree. Hallucination is a “nice” description for what is aptly described by the author as lying … repeatedly

Goodness, I get the impression that this has been thrown together in a hurry as it confuses having an account with access and even has an incorrect internal clause cross reference

The failure to adhere to an acceptable butter:bun ratio was the primary reason Huntly was awarded shit town of New Zealand in 2019

My better half criticises me for my 50:50 butter:bun ratio but that’s because she comes from Huntly

There was a guy in Manaia, South Taranaki, Mad Mac he was called IIRC. He sold my father a series of these and the later DS. Loved those cars and their hydraulic suspension systems. Taranaki was full of them in the day

… and then, having just fixed the problem, get me all riled up again by spamming me with a “how did we do” request for me to spend more time being reminded of how they stuffed up in the first place 😡😡😡

We have three perfect pie purveyors down here - Fairlies, Sanga’s and Waipiata

Indeed. But it could have been handled differently, with those few issues that are now likely to ground calls for SGMs, being able to have been addressed by current members. As it now stands, an SGM is effectively being invited by council
