The C word is just out of control. People think they can throw it around like foreign 20c pieces. I don’t agree with it’s indiscriminate use. I don’t think it should be used ever. I’m sure Paul Murray wouldn’t either. Thanks to Brownbook for the images. Sorry it took so long Brownie, but you should see the backlog.


To hell with the signage; just imagine the possibilities for the propagation of nasty skin rashes and other infections in such filthy surroundings.
I wonder if the machines are ever cleaned properly.
It also demonstrates that calling people ‘pigs’ is porcine abuse.

Urgh – I’ve had the dubious pleasure of using this establishment’s dryers during particularly long rainy spells.
The Ezy-Plus deli next door sells bongs. Enough said.

Are those the old washing machines with the vertical coin slots, TLA ? If so, youngsters, a friend, ahem, in their less well-heeled teenage days discovered that if you block the slots from below with your fingers, fill them with washing powder, then push the thingy, (technical term), in quickly … voila !

Snuff – That’s not the kind of “trick” where I’m going to be standing around belting washing powder into a coin slot for so long that the police will have appropriate time to arrest me, is it? Similar tricks were played on me as a schoolboy. Damn pinball machines never gave me one free game.

New Zealand has changed their coins now, so the 20c don’t work here anymore either.

You’ll be just fine, Ljuke, if you can still find a vertical slot machine anywhere.
That’s a big ask, TLA. They’re all so worst, and only a video link can provide the appropriate level of aural torture. I’ll post one when I can find something suitably horrific.
Meanwhile, I’m still collecting some worst doozies here, and I’ll add them to your burgeoning backlog sometime.

Well, TLA, although I haven’t yet been able to find a video online which adequately conveys The Garden of Earthly Delights, (right panel)…

…that is pachinko, I’ve settled on this one for now, as it comes with bonus Americans.
