Thought For Today

April 30, 2004

Anyway, no drug, not even alcohol, causes the fundamental ills of society. If we’re looking for the source of our troubles, we shouldn’t test people for drugs, we should test them for stupidity, ignorance, greed and love of power.

Men Commandments

April 30, 2004

Coming soon in large marble tablet form to a pub near you: The Men Commandments. Here are a few teasers:
4.) If you’ve known a Man for more than 24 hours, his sister is off limits forever, unless you actually marry her.
9.) It is permissible to drink a fruity alcopop drink only when you’re sunning [...]

Kill Phil

April 29, 2004

Volume 2 will premiere this Saturday at Subiaco Oval.
  
That’s Phil Read vs Dale Kickett in volume 1, and Phil Matera vs Roger Hayden in Volume 2. You can buy the T-shirts at Dockerland.
Update: The Japanese characters on the Volume 2 T-shirt apparently translate to “small female dog”. Tee Hee.

Pls Bring Children To Spatter With Blood

April 29, 2004

My mother is a member of the Australian Greens (I know, I know) and is also hopelessly computer illiterate (who would have suspected those things went together?). The result of this is that I have my email address on the Greens mailing list, providing me with an endless stream of entertaining lefty wank. For example:
Tandanya [...]

You WILL Be A Role Model

April 29, 2004

You have no idea how much it pisses me off over the efforts of professional sporting organisations to ensure that every single person associated with their sport is a “role model”.
In the Bulldogs NRL Case:
There won’t be a decision for two weeks but it is understood six players will be fined for participating in [...]

Buyer’s Remorse

April 29, 2004

The girls can’t get their story straight, probably because they’re making most of it up, except for the part where one of them got fucked by a whole bunch of rugby players:
What is known and agreed is this: on the night of Wednesday February 18, four days before any complaints were raised, a handful of [...]

Impotent Bone Pointed

April 28, 2004

Shock revelations today, via Alan Anderson:
DETAILS have emerged about the woman calling herself “Moopor” who pointed a bone at John Howard last week in protest at his decision to abolish the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission.
The Australian has learnt that Moopor is usually known by the name Bernadette Clark, is a cousin of suspended [...]

Glen Jakovich Is A Fuckwit

April 28, 2004

One of the truisms of football is that Glen Jakovich is not only one of the most overrated players ever to pull on the boots, but also a gigantic crybaby. How he managed to get his contract extended for season 2004 is a mystery to just about everyone, but he’s making the most of his [...]
