  1. If you're stupid enough to buy any Trump merch, sucked in.
  2. And I thought they were conservative. Even the guy in the background picture has got a horn.

  5. Well, there's money in the middle east. Despite having more than enough wealth to buy 300,000 families a $1m house each, he wants more.
  6. Julia isn't a misandrist. She just called Tony a misogynist because that's what he was.
  7. Sleepy Donald. He's such a useless arsehole that he's now being judged by totally different criteria than any other president. Any one of the corrupt, self-serving things he's done, if it were anyone else, would lead to impeachment and public excoriation. Now we just see stories like this and think "same old".
  8. Cyclist's revenge. "I'll teach you to drive in my damn bike lane..."
  9. My old boss told me his cunning plan to avoid facial wrinkles was to keep getting fatter.
  10. She inspired a few. It's been suggested that a Dire Straits song "Lady Writer" is about her.

    3rd September I reckon.
  12. Not arguing that the product is good, but it's not done sustainably. Huon Aquaculture recently lost their RSPCA certification and they were supposed to be the good one. Just like mining - they need to do it in a way that doesn't f*ck the environment. Costs more of course but we have a "clean green" image down here which drives the tourist market and the fresh produce. If we don't have that the state is stuffed, so it's nonsensical and short sighted of the government to support an unsustainable business model.
  13. Yeah I certainly wouldn't say it's a ringing endorsement for Labor. It's made their job easier, that's for sure, but they'd be fools to become complacent and not read the tea leaves. For example in my electorate of Franklin a NEW Independent, Peter George, got 42% of the 2 candidate preferred votes, on a platform of mainly shutting down the offshore salmon farms that are rooting the environment and spreading chunks of rotting salmon around the local beaches. Labor has been one-eyed supporting the salmon industry, even though there's only about 26 jobs in it on the west coast from memory. It'd be cheaper to give every employee half a mill to stop working for them than what the government has been spending to prop it up. If Julie Collins (Labor) doesn't take notice of this and start gently steering Albo away from the salmon industry (remember Plibersek as Environment minister was doing her best to make a balanced decision on this but her review was stopped by legislation rushed through to protect the salmon farmers) - then next election Peter George may take more of a voting share, or even the seat. It's exactly the same problem as beset the Libs and look what happened to them. Those Teal independents won, and in general have retained the previously blue-chip LNP seats, exactly because they didn't listen to the electorate's concerns about the environment and still aren't.

    Quickies part 2

    They'll discover it behind the fridge, covered in dust, the day after they throw away the coffin.
  15. Got news for American conservatives, the majority of the world is anti-Trump.
  16. If it's the old-fashioned way, it'd be a logistical nightmare. He's 53 now (gawd, the same as me - hopefully that's our only shared attribute). So let's generously give him 25 years of regular active sex life without the Viagra killing him. Let's also assume he can find say 2,500 women that are prepared to bear 2 of his monsters, or else 5,000 at one each. Let's also assume it takes an average of 10 tries to get each woman up the duff. So that's 50,000 roots in 25 years, or 2,000 a year (probably slowing down towards the end, lets start off with 5,000 a year and reduce as he ages). So in that first year he has to perform about 14 times per day - every day of the year! I guess at least it'll give him something to do other than wreck the US government.
  17. Is he going to father all the Martian children?
  18. Something extremely satisfying about the silly bastard dropping $60m and getting nothing for it. Apparently the Legalize Marijuana party spent about $6,000 (1/10,000th) and got almost the same number of votes.
  19. The Green vote has only decreased something like 0.5% overall since the last election - and that one was their biggest ever. They're saying that the reason this didn't translate to seats is because LNP preferenced Labor over Green.
  20. Willem Dafoe?
  21. Not them, but whoever is in their job 5 years later, by the sounds of it.
  22. "...vicious, violent, and repeat Criminal Offenders, the dregs of society, who will never contribute anything other than Misery and Suffering." Sounds like he's describing himself. Is he going to be the first prisoner? Orange is the new Orange.
  23. We can only hope. Given what he's doing to the US economy, chances are he'd hold the shottie backwards...
  24. If you didn't vote, you can't complain about the outcome.
  25. If "really spectacular" is code for "particularly stupid" then he's already achieved his ambition. Maybe he could retire early.
