JT says rich folk don't like living near poor folk. He's upset that Waipareira couldn't have more than a third social housing in a council-led development Waipareira was looking to build. Should the council create a mix of houses in the developments it has a hand in or just get the most affordable possible built?

Poll: Is it rude to take a full trolley to self-checkout?
Luckily self-checkout is being pretty common in supermarkets these days and we generally use it to quickly buy a few things without the long lines. But perhaps it's appropriate to head there with your full trolley to skip the lines?

Poll: Have you ever had a scary flight?
A plane flying from Christchurch to Wellington on Sunday had smoke billowing out of the engine and upon landing, passengers had to open the emergency exit and jump out. Have you had any scary flying experiences?
