Howard Sattler (rightly) received a lot of criticism when he remarked “Good riddance to bad rubbish” when juvenile car thieves were killed in a high speed crash. But is it going just a step too far to say “Good riddance” to Howard when his mother dies? A little worse than calling Adrian Barich a cunt I think.
Or do we blame the moderators? The link, for as long as it remains.
I might have sugar coated it.

all hail the Lunchbox
we are not worthy
Bento – If you are at the Charles this week……….let me buy you a drink…………………….pure GOLD!
To be honest, I was pretty surprised it slipped through the net, and then took a couple more days to catch any bites…
Skink – I am yet to provoke a direct confrontation with Sookie, and therefore I bow to your redneck-baiting abilities (although Rolly did call me a ‘metrocentric twat’ in the election coverage – I’m thinking of getting a t-shirt made).
I take a perverse pleasure in knowing I am listed under the category of ‘Worst Person’.
Bento, you are a hero :-)
I loved it how you gave Sookie a lesson in Pots & Kettles :-)
If you get a ‘worst person on worst of perth’ post, I’ll nominate it for the other coveted title of ‘not worst.’
‘Not worst worst of worst of perth.’
Worst People:
Jack Van Tongren
People with racist bumper stickers
Wilson Tuckey
Sam Newman
Bento
Keeping fine company.
I’m buggered if I want to agree with a metrocentric twat, but this time I really can’t help myself.
I have absolutely no sympathy for the rabid rattler, though I do understand the call for legalised voluntary euthanasia.
Death comes to all of us and it really is just a matter of where, when and how.
In this world of twisted morals and dubious ethics it’s the ‘How’ bit that concerns me most.
The utter crap of “palliative” medicine is just that. What value is there in the extension of life simply to appease those whose “Christian” dogmas have occasioned a terror of the inevitability of death; and in so doing wreak a terrible suffering on those they claim to be helping.
I have great empathy with the terrible death that Howard’s mother was forced to undergo.
But yes, her arrogant, ignorant and hypercritical son does deserve a serve of his own medicine
and, if it stirs some of his sycophantic readers into into self righteous rage, so be it.
My grandad died last night.
Not wanting to speak ill of teh dead, but the fact that we both had the exact same names, live in the same city and share another bloke with the exact same name who I call Dad and he calls son, you would have thought the old prick would have sent me a birthday card at least once over the last 41 years.
Hard to grieve for someone who you’ve only met once.
Ljuke @ 6 – It’s a special kind of list where Sam Newman is the least offensive person on it…
That’s true. Though I’d hate to see what Sam might have said about Howard’s mum.
Ooh, veering into dangerous territory again.
cookster @ 8 – fuck me….sounds like Thursday night is going to turn into somesort of bizzaro wake…..
Well as long as she was riding a stolen nursing home bed, I’m happy with it.
I was happy to leave it ambiguous as to whether it was Bento or Riddance who was worst person.
Who among you is compassionate?
me……………but that fucker had it coming to him
What with the random capitalisation, I thought maybe Ann had developed a sense of humour. I should have known better – you were writing for your audience.
that would be me
just seeing if they were bothering to moderate that site at all, and seeing if I could get away with offering to euthanaze Sattler
apparently I can
no, I am Spartacus
nice work skink……….if you can get it
sorry when the question can about Who among you is compassionate?….I took it literally……..shame on me for bearing my heart to TWOP
Aww, you big softie, Forkboy.
15 years as a social worker, 8 as a commissioned officer in the D.S.D will do that too you………….I luv youse guys x
I put in some Ann-style capitalisation and the metrocentric jibe as a telltale
I have discovered that with self-righteous indignation you can use much stronger language than when using jaded sarcasm, so hysterical histrionics are my style from now on, and for that one needs capitals.
a prize for the first person to get the c-word on there
@ Skink – what, Carps?
I like the way Dave of Mt Lawley is more outraged at WAT than Nippon lunchbox.
Outrage is notoriously difficult to direct with any sort of precision. Or rationality. Apparently.
Fucking Outrage being the notable exception.
Hey! Which of you’se hijacked my “metrocentric twat”?????
Not a nice, compassionate thing to do.
I should’ve copyrighted it.
And where’s my new gravatar showing my version of a “des. res.” Eh? Eh?
Oh! It was you, skink.
Ok. Forgiven (sort of ) but don’t do it again. Naughty boy.
Skink – challenge accepted. We’ll soon see how much attention the moderator is paying.
LA – my egocentric search on the Google for ‘metrocentric twat’ failed to return any results. Please have this looked into by the relevant people.
Dammit, it appears they at least pay some attention.

I was hoping a misspelled ‘can’t’ would make it through. No such luck.
My comment about how you should have your head cut off made it through.
“Good Riddance To Bad Rubbish”
Should be Howard’s epitath.
ratbag, I hope you will be monitoring PR to see if Riddance objects
I was slightly surprised that every person I have spoken to has said “Fair call” to saying “Good riddance” to Howard Sattler’s old mum.
@34 The Lazy Aussie
Well, she has to carry the blame for giving birth to the idiot and bringing him up with a messianic complex.
LA @34 – how do they feel about beheading?
The Rattler Files activity is directly proportional to how much interest is stirred up by TWOPPERS. May Rattler’s mother R.I.P neither mentioned by Rattler ( in pursuit of more column inches) or any one else , just remembered fondly by those who knew her.
I lay claim the prize for getting the C-word onto Sattler’s blog
you have to look hard, but it’s there
random capitals have their uses
Hurrah for Compasionate, the sneaky cunt (bastard).
I get the feeling no-one’s at home there. they seem to have lost interest.
agreed, as have I
Bento briefly fanned a flickering flame of interest, but if you can insult his mother, threaten to euthanaze him, and call him a cunt, then the moderator may have taken his eye off the ball. if there is a moderator any more. maybe that was one of the cutbacks
I guess it’s inevitable when the vast majority of your contributors are trolls egging each other on.
I’m interest to know how long it took you to fit a sentance around the C UNT skink.
Latest Perth Radio Ratings, lets see how popular Rattler and the rest of 6PR REALLY is :-)

Sattler has excelled himself
today’s column criticizes Carp’s wife for looking ‘dowdy’ on election night.
“several emailers contended I’d sunk to a new low. At least one cruelly suggested my late mother was better off to have left such a low life as me behind.”
Did he say dowdy or dardy?
Racist.
Yes, but only if his mother was also really pissed, stoned or drugfucked at the time.
