Fairfax – When turds go bad

You’d think that as Fairfax circled the toilet bowl, there might be some attempt at a last stand, some quiet dignity, something we could remember them for before they reach that big poo chopper in the sky. Instead this. Remember, ladies we want your vote. Are we fucked? Flush once for yes… Goodbye metrosexuals, and goodbye Fairfax.

    “David Cohen

    I wonder if Rolly will enter?”

    My claims to fame do not include being a working man nor extend to having a female fan base.

    Perhaps the expression that includes “…in an iron lung” and the term MCP are rather closer to the mark.

    Jeez, what just what have you been smoking D(fo)C ???

    There is something disturbing about awarding a prize to one stereotype in an attempt to denigrate another.

    What’s next? A competition to say goodbye to feminists and award a prize to the girl with the biggest tits?

    Will somebody please flush!

    It’s newspapers, margeryx.
    You can expect intelligent, well considered discourse from the mainstream media.
    Not from this blog and it’s commentators either.

    Big Pam Casellas came up with a better idea in her blog titled:

    “Euthanasia: would you want to watch a man die?”

    well, yes

    let’s a voter poll to decide who we’d want to see involuntarily euthanased on live TV

    That should have read “You can NOT expect………”
    “Neither from this blog of ‘Metrocentric Twats'(©Rolly2008)” might have been more appropriate in view or TLA’s ripost.
    The metaphoric macular degeneration of these tunnel-visioned town dwellers is remarkable by it’s laser like incisive idiocy.

    I’m not sure about euthanasia in general for terminal diseases etc, but I do believe it’s an abuse of human rights not to allow the choice when I’m confronted with another half-page Pam Casellas column about quilting or CWA puddings.

    Yeah Fraterniteh I thought that ever since Charlene on Neighbours, it was widely acknowledged that a young woman not in possession of university entrance type brains is just as entitled as a young man to seek Cashed Up Bogan status (and a ute!) via a trade. 6pr though.

    They already had that one, and Nikki won – even without nipples, she can make the tradies throw their wages at her apparently.
