That's why they're always invading France Michel, they just want to go to the beach and play some volleyball.... ;D

An old German is crossing the border into France. Meets a border guard.
Guard: Name?
German: Hans.
Guard: Country of origin?
German: Germany
Guard: Occupation?
German: No! Just visiting!

I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

Well, it's back to the grind after my stunning debut in Rio which netted me 3 gold medals: Shotput, discus and lying with a straight face.  The latter takes the most discipline.

After over 4 years "unemployed", I was finally offered 4 jobs coaching soccer at multiple colleges with a starting pay of $292,028.00usd - 310.111.00usd.
Turned them all down as I would rather referee Under 10 year olds games for $20/game on the weekends.
Life is not only about money, as I have an extensive lawn with many dandelions and have become a vegetarian.  ::)

I'm getting just a bit fcuking tired of being called a fcuking drug cheat! Sure, I love the drugs, and sure, I'm 56 years old, 300 pounds and I haven't seen my own dick since 2001, but I beat those other swimmers fair and square, so they can all get fcuked. Anyway, I gotta go have a blood transfusion, my coach Lance Armstrong wants me in tip top condition for the medal ceremony! ;D

I just finished filling out the national census. Fcuk I enjoy filling out census', I only wish I could fill one out every day. When I die and am mistakenly sent to hell, I hope I get to spend eternity filling out government census' while having pineapples shoved up my clacker, rough end first. ;D

I worked for the Census Bureau and had lots of fun helping people fill out forms.  ::) A very satisfying job helping people see that a question with answers  like:
yes, actually means yes,
 and no , well, it always means no. ....

Read the news about AUS having a cyberattack launched against their new online census website.

I'm proud of whoever did that dds overload.  Because how are you supposed to get accurate population and housing information over the damn internet?!  Way to leave out significant portions of the population.  I.E. Homeless, Aboriginal, and/or computer illiterate!

The whole "Cyber Attack" story was a hoax. In truth, the website collapsed when 20 million folks all logged in at the same time, when the website was only designed to handle 1 million per hour. They've even blamed China, saying that the hacked the census in retaliation for an Oz swimmer calling his Chinese opponent a drug cheat. What BS! ;D

Sorry mate, I guess you only got half of the story, there was a paper version available as well, but the default position was to do it online. ;D

The info about the paper version was available online or on other electronic media....which kind of defeats the purpose if you don't have access or abilities in that area....there would be thousands who would be saying "census, what census?"
Our govt and its agencies are awesome. They never create a farce or waste our money. $9.5m seems like a very reasonable spend for something that doesn't work.

Its crashed again.... ;D  There were no DDOS attacks, there's a site that monitors DDOS attacks world wide and there were NONE in Australia at the time the census site went down. The ABS also has self reported 14 data breaches since 2013, wonderfully safe place to hold all this personal info, I'll send one in the post, too bad if it doesn't get there... 8)

Lucky for you that this is the BS thread Pete, I've got the letter in front of me that says, "If you can't go online, call 1300 820 275 to request a paper form now". Of course, if you can't read a fcuking letter, then what hope would you have operating a computer? ;D

Ha ha, well mine was addressed to "The Householder" followed by my address, and I've heard that a lot of "Householders" thought it was just junk mail so they threw it out, even though they knew there was a census coming up, and even though it was marked, "Australian Bureau of Statistics"?

What do people think the Australian Bureau of Statistics" do? Sell vacuum cleaners? If these dumb fcukers can't even read the envelope and know not to throw the letter out, what fcuking hope do they have? The more I see of people, the more I like my motorcycles............ ;D

Door-to-door service!
Sad thing is, sometimes US census takers find out someone is deceased before the departeds family does.

That's pretty
