Purity of Essence

March 19, 2010 by The Lazy Aussie

Baravan afficionado Rolly maintains that this picture shows the essence of the City of Stirling.While Paracleet claims this sign is the essence of the City of Perth. And WAtching asserts that this is the essence of the Town of Vincent. Purity of Essence must preserve our vital bodily fluids in our vibrancy ravaged boroughs.

Burnt Spoon

March 18, 2010 by The Lazy Aussie

Vegan can’t seem to take anything from this Gosnells shopping centre sculpture other than it represents a burnt spoon. As a tribute to hash and heroin roasters of the Gosnells area it works well. Wait is it a burnt sperm? Somewhat insane, but has a certain compelling effect. Why it is in the Coles carpark is another matter. Didn’t stop to check if you could see up the dress Vegan? No matter. Excellent worsting anyway.

Fang-ed Hooves

March 17, 2010 by The Lazy Aussie

The Bass tard asks if it is time for this to go. Commuters have been passing it by for what at least a decade? Are they stil moved by the fight between good and evil? Is this now a worst? Was it ever anything else. Bass tard sez…
…a befuddling mural, at the Moore St railway crossing in Perth between McIver & Perth stations, depicting an angel and a demon engaged in battle upon fanged steeds. It’s been there since I was a little tacker catching the train to Leederville TAFE from Bassendean but  I’ve never been able to figure out the symbolism. It also seems unfinished (the ‘writing’ at the top not completed filled in) but it was always there so always meant Perth to me. But perhaps that’s what Perth is: confusing and seemingly incomplete.

I’m thinking that it’s less worst than bare brick but maybe it’s time to go. But being Perth, you’d know that something worse would go up instead. By the way, is that Lord Gaga Luke Steele  on the white?

Slaughter of the Cocos

March 16, 2010 by The Lazy Aussie

This time it’s personal. Is there a facebook group “How can the Tree Man claim to be a tree lover when he’s got fucking Cocos Palms in his own garden. Bento saw this sight to warm the cockles of all true Cocos haters. Tree Man. Deal with your Cocos and THEN come back and tell us what trees should stay or go. And stay dead this time.

Slam a Jesus down fast for a hard earned thirst…

March 16, 2010 by The Lazy Aussie

And Jesus is flouride treated too. Christians can always find a new level of risible. Came across an ad for a local group with US affiliations that read “Poking holes in the darkness so Jesus’ light can shine through.” This one from Outrage Cohen.

Whinger Log

March 15, 2010 by The Lazy Aussie

Here is the caller log from the interview the other day. What a bunch of whingers! (Not you Mez). I think they were missing the point that it should be funny. Ai YA! Rude Kiwis, Brits and South Africa ruining our community? Wot fuck? Difficult to find one to award the tshirt to. Will go with the 1975 but with mobile phones I think. I’m also adding this pic of Chinese graffiti at the Zoo, because no-one rang in to rant about foreigners graffitiing our precious Aussie Yuccas.

————————————————————————-

Perth is kind of like 1975..but with mobile phones.

Live is 2 short 2 sell green bananas. Shops that sell green bananas

Perth museum is hilarious. Looks like it was last updated BEFORE Perth airport was. Keith

‘Vibrations’, sex shop, charle’s st. North perth. Front window sign states; ‘discrete rear entry’. Can supply photo. Yvonne

I hate graffiti artists. They need a swift kick up the aerosol. Paul

The gum nut fountain gn kalamunda. Awful awful thing. Louise

The heinous display of tattoos on women armsegs or necks at mandurahs council pool!

The worst of perth is that we invented the first and worst light beer with swan gold. Scott

Colin Barnett s dewlap. Ruth

Shane mandurah i hate the councils of perth having sports events then not allowing any parking near the event only on that day

Hi Gillo Could you please ask Andrew to remove his sunglasses I cant see his eyes Thanks Mez

Signs in greengrocers and supermarkets for ‘lettuce’ and ‘fancy lettuce’. You just feel compelled to buy the later. Yvonne

The heinous statue of Sir John Curtin in front of the Freo Town Hall. Helen from Hammy hill

The airport (unfunny ranting contiues)

Worst thing about Perth? Too many rude South Africans Kiwis and British ruining our community thanks to the mining boom . Greg

Tailgaters are appalling in Perth.

I have trying to find public toilets with baby change facilities. Not sign posted, and often inadequate if there at all. Crappy job perth. Ha ha. Nikki

Don’t want to hear about it…

March 15, 2010 by The Lazy Aussie

We’ve already featured this ill conceived ad concept before in 2007. Every graphic designer or advertiser at some stage in their career will have the bright idea of making the product into someone’s head. Now an artliner has articulated the problem. From Brer Bento. I’m also adding a pic of my own to sweeten the post thinking that someone may find in this Bayswater sign some rich gravatar material.

Weekend Worstoff 99

March 13, 2010 by The Lazy Aussie

Here’s a pic of Gillo through the glass at the ABC. I don’t know if there’s a audio available. Apparently whingers called in all day. None of them likely to be funny. And the Bass Tard sent in this from Wellington Street. The Pedo. Must be one of those new small bars. And I like this which seemed to ban partying on this truck tailgate. Worst well.

Reticulated

March 12, 2010 by The Lazy Aussie

Another Perth favourite, the reticulated dustbowl. Another from North Perth via Pfortner. I’m glad we have strict gun laws here.

Cocos Got Back

March 12, 2010 by The Lazy Aussie

Some Cocos palms for you. Do not be distracted by the cyclist apparently wearing a heavy but cropped bearskin fur coat on a 37 degree day. Do not drop your eyes. Focus Cocos. There’s nothing to see lower down, stay on target.Do not under any circumstances look at the cyclist.  Don’t forget I’ll be on ABC Afternoon show with Gillo at 1pm today. I know she’s no Eoin Cameron ( aaaaarch puke) but unlike Eoin, she won’t be doing the same show she was doing 35 years ago.
