Is this potato bucking for its own float at the Mardi Gras? Maybe it has one already. Is it even a potato? It’s not an onion is it? The last of Turf’s indulgent wallowing in South of the river worsts. A gay potato wouldn’t raise an eyebrow north of the river in the oh so sophisticated Beaufort Street Arrondisement, (and why should it?) but the South seems more brutish, raw and atavistic in its worsts, which perhaps makes this fellow stand out even more. My brow furrows a little.

Possibly a case of ‘we need an image here’ so ‘give the kids a can of red paint and a brush’.
A place called Supa Spud might class themselves as ‘Potato & Onion Merchants’ and not the other way round.

I’m pretty sure Supa spud is owned by “Rebel” Potato Grower Tony Galati, who was prosecuted for selling his potatos wholesale without submitting them to the POtato Marketing Board which will NEVER be disbanded as the other famers have all Political Parties by the Coligone if they dare scrap it.

Close Frank – Mr. Galati in fact runs the ‘Spud Shed’ stores, and is an entirely different onion and potato merchant.

Tony Galati’s spuds are 100% meat-eating, gay-spud-bashing, footy-playing hetero.
Weird how the more you try to assert hetero-ness, the more it seems like you’re describing a closet case…
