labor shills are bad enough but at least they criticise their own and/or stfu occasionally

Lollll! Man, I only found out about this this evening. Hilarious. Doing an actual fuckin runner? Way to make yrself look childish.

Actually also, I read an article about WHY this all happened and quite frankly I had no idea wtf was going on. I dont think I understand this pair thing and this crossing the floor stuff, and I imagine most people wouldnt - would what Abbott did (esp lying about it afterwards) be enough anyway to make him look like a bit of a dickhead?

(itt trayce reveals how much of a dumbarse she is about politics news at 11 etc)

it's like when, say, your coalition zombie father spends all 65 of his years bagging everything labor has ever done, and one day he champions a labor policy by accident, and when you tell him he just big-upped labor he FREEZES ON THE SPOT for seriously 20 seconds because he is not mentally equipped to handle the breach in his hull

that is basically what happened today, except thomson used a ~strategy~

whatever you may or may not think of thomson and his alleged transgressions, that was some epic trolling

*WACKITY SAX*

"omg DID U KNO there is a "Darkweb" and it cant be seen on the normal intrenets and it contains PRON and GUNZ and CRIMINALZ and NO ONE KNOWS ABOUT IT OMG!"

...uh hi, theAge, welcome to 20 years ago, ever heard of VPN?

^^it's the submission that had to be made

breakfast tv show supports marriage equality, nutbar splinter group objects, suddenly ~news~

Wait I missed that one, whatthe.

just the acl being bigots again

sunrise announced its support for marriage equality, acl members threatened to boycott all its advertisers

If it meant sunrise went off the air tbh I'd be all for that.

But seriously, these bigots are fighting a losing battle everyehere and they know it, and theyre pissing themselves.

acl guy opened the 'debate' by comparing marriage equality to nazi germany

so obviously he was poised to win

I wonder if my very christian rellos are embarrased by the acl. I hope they are.

In other news, having a hard time believing that Tim Heidecker in a wig person who did/did not/wtf knows sleep with Craig Thompson, is any kind of professional "escort of the nuit". :|

wait did the HSU have to pay extra for the naughty secretary costume she's wearing

because if so, that was money well spent

Ha! No, I figured I'd get taken to task for saying that. Fair enough. I just thought she looked incredibly dumpy, but maybe its the disguise doing that.

And I was thinking of professional er... pros. rather than streetwalkers, yknow. I'd assume they are all prob pretty statuesque, I mean its an industry where looks are important, surely.

the one former sex worker of my acquaintance was a lovely though kinda dowdy looking young lady tbh but i only ever saw her wearing 'civvies' as it were

As opposed to her skivvies.

"@FakeMattKeenan: Monk & D'Arcy are perfectly within their rights to defend themselves against Grant Hackett."

I don't know what any of those names mean

monk was a weird detective show from early last decade
d'arcy was the drug addicted former bassist for the smashing pumpkins

don't know who grant hackett is

A+

tbf it could be worse, we could have seen the shooting team brandishing speedos

dingo did indeed have her baby

how is babby stole

good work, 'new york daily news'

gotta say i'm not finding any of the current dingo 'humour' funny at all

otm, people forgetting an actual child of some actual parents died

Where now is there joekmaking about it? The papers Ive read seem respectful/remorseful (if only krokodillically so)

hmmmmm

^followup to the stencil cafe kerfuffle

ha ha :D

Wait waaait... the whole thing was a TROLL? WTF!?

OMG, thats just priceless.

woow

kinda more interested in the location of these pop-up stores that are the hipster version of Hooters, tbh

Yes, that did rather confuse me. I thought hooters was a cheap shitty franchise akin to TGIFs.
