@MN5 said in Alternative needed from the absolute crap of stuff.co.nz: What is it about Fergburger that got this reputation ? Anyone ? If there were no lines out the door I would have happily gone to see for myself as I love a good burger ( can recommend Ekim Burger in Welly, outstanding and SUCH good value ) but like @Catogrande there is nothing that will have me lining up for ages when there are loads of other options very nearby. I recall over 20 years ago thinking their burgers were noticeably better than the fare usually served up elsewhere. These days it's pretty standard but I guess the reputation makes it a "thing to do" for people in Queenstown.

Worth sharing for a few reasons....... The photo cracks me up, she is DEFINITELY giving the cops the "do you know who I am?" spiel. She crashed into several parked cars, "including a Tesla" how is the Tesla more relevant than the others ? How does one become a "socialite?" be a rich, well photographed, snobby arsehole or is there more to it ?

I assume her defence will be that she was aiming for the Tesla but accidentally hit the cars not owned by twats because she was drunk. I thought Reece had become a Sydney socialite for a minute there.

Love how they changed the framing too. When they thought it was a Republican at fault it was 'mocking wheelchair user' now that its a Democrat she's just calling him 'hot wheels'..kinda sounds like a compliment. Stuff will always be complete dogshit for news

Crap and stuff.co.nz - this is perfect for this thread.

Classic Stuff, and appropriate for the thread title. Behind a paywall (or at least a 'register' wall). Also, they strongly argued this was an 'advertisement' not an article, so the BSA shouldn't have jurisdiction.
