Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

    The other day on the train I noticed, in the midst of the morning commuter crowd, a woman with large hair who was wearing a green mini dress and pinky-orange faux fur coat. She really stood out of the pack of corporate blandness and sensible retirees who make up a 9am train to the city. I love stuff like that, it’s nice to see someone doing their own thing.

      I wish everyone wore more colours. Winter is the worse for this, everyone is in dark colours and it’s so depressing.

      I think if you could the train an hour earlier, you’d probably see a lot more colour. There’s definitely a demographic shift after off peak rates and free gold card travel kick in at 9am.

      Even among the corporates, bright shirts and brightly coloured hair aren’t uncommon in a government office building.
