Wankeurs

I thought I had exhausted Inside Cover and The West rants for now, until Jian sent me their caption competition winner from last week. Japs? Really? Can we expect a photo of an old wall so “chinks” or even “dykes” can be worked in?

Japs? Really?

Japs? Really?

And the day afterI joked about Broadfield “getting wind” of another double parked car, IC does indeed run a follow up to their incredible “car parked in bus bay” expose. Wot fuck going on?

Also, did anyone read Broadfield’s cringeworthy food review of Parliament House dining room in The weekend West mag? The one where he takes IC colleague Daniel Hatch along as if he’s bestowing some noblesse oblige on the poor bastard. Noblesse oblige is French Mr Broadfield, like the word “wankeur”.

“Young Hatch, who’s background is rural, impressed us with his knowledge of all things fodder…” Fuck off you patronising cunt! I assume it shows just how badly “Young Hatch” needs the job that he didn’t ram the Dahl Gram Salmon up Broadfield’s left nostril.  And how does a kitchen where you’d have to “pay him to eat the food’” get a 14 out of 20, which according to his chart is a reccommendation?

On the bright side, you can’t help but applaud the “silken voiced public servant’ who told the the IC crew to fuck right off when they tried to take a photo of the dining room. Bravo.

    I’m pretty sure they could’ve found an appropriate file photo, or asked if Parliament House could provide a photo for use ?

    Oh and short notice – Steve Gordon is talking to Dr Peter Harries tonight at I think 9pm on 6PR about the gistory of Perth Night Clubs in the 60′s and 70′s – expect La Tenda and Romanos to be mentioned.

    please don’t forget to mention the terrible piece about the possible sexuality of a TV weatherman, including a photo of him caught in a limp wristed pose.

    Now I know I was the one that christened the former editor Limpwrist, but that was a lame pun of mind-blowing sophistication compared to the awful seventies-era titterfilarious stereotyping undertaken there. I don’t get paid for it. and Armstrong was a phony trying to play the hard man.

    I was waiting for a John Inman/Frankie Howerd/Larry Grayson/Dick Emery/Danny LaRue/Kenneth Williams namecheck.

    Ooh you are awful but…no, you’re just awful.

    A good way to tell who you should and shouldn’t be talking to at a party or other social event in Perth is to let slip that you only read The West for the entertainment value: Anyone who asks you why and did not grow up in Perth might not be the best conversationalist.

    “More Japs”… bloody hell.

    so he gets a repeat invite obviously.

    Tis a shame that the Broadfield review wasn’t taking place on the same day as my Sexpo pole dancing stunt http://tr.im/lRvj

    As DFOC can attest, they shut the blinds in the dining room so that the members’ wouldn’t be put off their Dahl Gram Salmon… but there was the odd peek.

  6. Seems to be a very old article (Outrage?) in the Post of Rob “Le Wankeur” Broadfield launching his book. Is it year 2000?

    Dan Hatch escape plan. Broadfield dumped for blue screen shenanigans.

    I see Zoltan did another hard-hitting expose on mobile phone etiquette on the weekend. I’m glad I’m not that Blackberry guy in the piece – he’ll think twice before he takes his phone to a restaurant again.

    Nice to see that Perth’s non-entities are still nearly alive and contributing to their own self aggrandisement! Hell of way to get your name in print!

    wtf IS the “k”night “k”lub and is that bloke having a piss in the cabana in pic #20?

  11. Mez says:

    and who is Marty Gittens??

  12. skink says:

    and with regard to Inside Cover, I see today that after you have announced a moratorium on mildly amusing personalized licence plates, that IC has picked up the baton.

    you innovate, others imitate

We can handle the worst
