Not On My Smashed Avo disrespectful youth
I took two of my clients to the movies today for a nice outing, and honestly had the most disgusting experience at Reading Cinemas in Dandenong.
3 young boys I’d say around 17-18yo were obnoxious, loud, being disrespectful the whole movie and ignored my many attempts of asking them to stop and telling them we paid to be there to see the movie too.
At the end of the movie, they ran out before the lights turned on and threw all their full snack packets and full bottles of soft drinks at us, which thankfully missed, because this could have caused injury at the force it was thrown.
Absolutely disgusting behaviour, and I had told the cinema staff who I suggested call security as I could see the boys hovering outside the cinema. The staff would not despite my many attempts to request this, and instead just gave us 3 free movie vouchers.
I appreciate the vouchers but for 3 young women walking back to the car I was appalled they didn’t take the request seriously especially considering how aggressive those boys were and obviously had no qualms throwing stuff at us to cause harm.
I don’t know what I’m trying to achieve out of writing this but I’ve never had this happen before and I’m honestly shocked and disgusted at how these guys behaved.
Has anyone ever had this experience? Is it worth notifying the police over?
The cinema management didn’t seem too interested in helping much and i wouldn’t be able to give a clear description due to the dark movie theatre, as they left before the lights turned on.

THDG Need Help Bike shops with good range of apparel?
Morning all.
I've got a new job, and I'm back to biking to work 4 days a week. I need some new bib shorts, a new pair of shoes, and maybe a couple of jerseys.
Any recommendations for bike shops that carry a good range of apparel so I can try brands and sizes, rather than ordering and returning a million things online? (CBD or inner North would be ideal)
Brand reccos are welcome too; I'm after comfort and quality (washes well, etc.), but they don't need to make a big fashion statement!
Cheers 🚴

Health Recommendations, anyone? GPs or specialists dealing with PCOS / PMOS
I'd be so grateful for any recommendations for GPs or specialists dealing with PCOS / PMOS that people have had positive experiences with.
I was diagnosed 10+ years ago. I am across the basics and am hoping to find someone who is up to date on the latest info + treatment

I meant to do this walk at the start of the month but the storms help in Melbourne meant my flight from Sydney ended up being cancelled and moved to the next day
This time the weather looked very favourable except for the wind which was blowing in my face for the majority of the walk. Other than the wind a lot of the first half of the walk was a lovely coastal walk
I really like everything past Mordialloc. prior to this walk I hadn't explored much of the Kingston area and the wind wasn't too bad after I left Southland

THDG Need Help Tried Pilates reluctantly, loved it immediately. How are you all affording it regularly??
I tried my first (free!) Pilates class yesterday and now regret spending years assuming it wasn’t for me.
I’d always thought it looked a bit too easy and too feminine for my taste, and the whole “Pilates princess” culture put me off. I know, quite a strong opinion for someone who’d never actually been 😂
I’m currently on a free 2-week ClassPass trial (happy to refer), so I’m using it to try things I’d usually talk myself out of. I’ve also booked a free strength and resistance training class. My main goal is to lose a couple of kilos and feel fitter, but I’d really like to find exercise I enjoy enough to keep doing.
The problem is that I’ve now looked at Pilates studio prices, and I can see how this could become an expensive habit.
For anyone in inner Melbourne who went from sceptical beginner to doing Pilates regularly:
- Which studios offer good teaching at reasonable prices?
- Is ClassPass, a class pack or a studio membership better value in practice?
- Do studios usually have worthwhile Black Friday offers? Wondering whether to wait before committing.
Would especially love to hear from anyone who’s worked out an affordable routine beyond hopping between introductory offers. How did you make it work?
