More Media Outrages

I just keep giving more than I take. Do youse really deserve it? Back to 7 days a week posting, often 2 posts per day, and still no more than 2,500 of you view every day. I’m a little outraged, because the proposed story about TWOP in Curtin’s Western Toerag didn’t materialise, but in its place was this obscenity. Talk about your fucking Outrages. You can click pic for larger version to read the text. Hyper literate my backside.

Suck my pen off.

Suck my pen off.

Update, Skink, who never got over losing the popularity contest in the Howling Wolves comp, asks readers their view on a Cohen Poll.

cohencompAnd while I’m on media outrages, I hope you are reading Michele Phillips blog. Here’s a lovely post about why she and her dog are more important than ordinary people and their mutts. Did you ever think about putting your dog on a fucking leash you plonker? Elsewhere she writes how blogging suits her writing. Yes, your writing does suit not being paid for it Michele. You are no Pam Cassselllas that’s for sure.

The media is just one fucking outrage after another today. I won’t forget it.

    What a fugly photo of The Outrage, I wonder if he got the article because he is the Prez of the MEAA in WA ?

    Talk about sucking up to the union bosses :-)

    Michelle’s blog post is, indeed, A Worst of Albany.

    But why are so many people reading it?

    I rather assumed that in referring to himself as “hyper-literate”, he was attempting to demonstrate to the people of Sweden that he does indeed have a sense of irony.

    Stockholm will be in stitches.

    I’ll post this again, since it is media related and Michelle gets a mention, and I am desperately trawling for hits.

    “Hyper-literate”! It must be true because it’s been in the media. Yes, I am omni-literate, while TLA, like many of these bloggerist types on Teh Interwebz, is more at home writing poorly-punctuated messages in sand with the necks of Howling Wolves empties.

    I wasn’t going to respond to this, as I am far too busy – for example I have just signed a lucrative deal to be Patti Chong’s media consultant.

    However. I and others have noted TLA’s churlish refusal to celebrate today. It is Outrage Day – yes, it has been 12 months since the raid on The Sunday Times, and my uttering of the immortal phrase.

    Since then my fame has grown exponentially, while TLA languishes in unpaid obscurity. It is I who am becoming the Perthonality, while he scribbles on the margins. I look forward to winning the BLFC and driving past his hovel, waving my tight wad at him.

    It can’t be long until there is a Ron Gomboc Jr artwork sculpted from compressed corflute about me in public – a backgammon board in the carpark of the ‘Ling, perhaps – while TLA will be tossed aside like a worn and mismatched sock.

      I have been puzzling that for days.

      Is it some hep Gen Y reference I don’t get?
      An in joke about the start of the world’s worst unwritten novel?

      Does it imply his writing is off?

      Why are there Gypsys plaguing the Western Suburbs?
      And have they found the The Castafiore Emerald yet?

      And just why is there a story on the front of the latest Post (sorry POST) promoting the virtues of advertising real estate in The POST?

      (And is this dramatic decline in quality related to the tedium that is the new West?)

    TLA – I salute you. I cannot imagine you ever posting this line:

    “OK, enough nastiness from people who don’t have the guts to leave their names. Comments on this post now closed.” – Michele Phillips

    This came on 3 May 2009, after this was posted on 30 April 2009:

    I agree with the comments on Worst Of Perth. (anonymous)

    and then a further anonymous comment pointing out the reasons for laws to apply to all of us (regardless of how cute our dogs may be).

    People with thin skins should not write blogs. Speaking of which, she doesn’t seem to have put anything up since December 2009. But in her last blog comments she refers to the deletion of “nasty comments” – is this more TWOP related action? I can’t be arsed reading through her archives of vacuousness to find out.

              Literally speaking, though, I currently have very thin skin – still trying to heal up after a hideous infection picked up in the Mandurah canals last weekend. But even that’s getting to the expected level of hippo hide density – just a few days ago it was tearing whenever I turned my head. Ugh.
