I mean why not just drive around saying "yes I am a racist".

I have been told that in the 80's Brisbane used to have a bus called 'The Skinhead Bus' that was a minibus full of skinheads that used to drive around and stop randomly to kick the shit through people. It also had 'The Skinhead Bus' painted on the side of it.

Class =)

^probably lies

ah, football

but lol, A+ trolling by schoolgirl

i can't believe the chief of police let this happen to her brother

If only grandpa Dick was still alive he would have known how to deal with the media in this instance

um getting my history confused, maybe not

*shakes jowls, something about crooks*

That AFL/Duthie stuff is getting beyond a joke. She's trolling the media and theyre eating it up like fucking idiots.

Same goes for that dickhead swedish skateboard ninny.

MASTERCHEF CONSPIRACY

bogan zeitgeist imo

bogans dont cook mate not when you can cheap pad thai delivered

also there are one or two too many ethnics for it to be bogan

train protestors miss train protest due to train cancellation

it's like rain on your wedding day

looooool

must say that masterchef scandal is intriguing, partly as i've not seen it all week due to late work finishes

You haven't missed much, the dramas won't be shown for another month or so.

There is an ILX connection of sorts btw. I know a mong poster whose best friend is friends with the man with the golden mobile.

Suprised i dont know him meself due to the whole lolgoth thing, he doesnt even look familiar.

work crush the other day: "you know what i miss, actual goths. sick of emo kids'

All the actual goths got old and cant be bothered going out anymore.

Apparently the Age website thinks that if its live footage of some police minister resigning, everyone in the whole world wants to see it so lets just make it take up half the whole front page AND AUTO PLAY.

Fuck that shit.

i'd say that's pretty big news tbh!

murdoch wins again

Vic police ministers seem to be like Spinal Tap drummers lately.

There's a war going on between the police and the police union, and murdoch is siding with the latter. I dunno why but I expect it's because it's politically expedient for the Vic Liberal party. I don't know the specifics but have a friend who's close to all this and has watched it play out in detail.

What's murdochs business with the coppers? I dont understand a jot of this.

Neither do I. A few years ago the editor of the Herald Scum got himself aligned against the Vic police and the paper has been going hard at them ever since.

Ah this is where I see why I dont get it - I wouldnt wipe my arse on the HS let alone deign to read it.

I only know because every time I see my father-in-law this happens:

fil: "have you heard about blah-blah-bad-police-blah-blah"
us: <blank look>
fil: "DON'T YOU REEEEEEAD THE PAPER?!?!?!?!?!!"

(in his world "THE PAPER" = the feral scum and nothing else exists anywhere ever)

(oh and a glimpse of the odd shouty headline in the work kitchen, usually "TOP COP EATS BABIES" or suchlike)

http://www.theage.com.au/victoria/oldschool-policeman-takes-on-daunting-job-20110616-1g63h.html

Blurb from the front page:

Union wants local policeman to succeed Overland as chief commissioner, but wary the job is seen as a 'poisoned chalice'.

Like fuck. Union glad it got its way morelike. Watch the murdochs spunk themselves to death on this.

BERT SICK

Didnt know pneumonia was something catching. I thought it was something you got when you had a lung infection for ages.

Want to make some kind of moonface/eclipse joke but cant think of one.
