Comedy starts at 8 tonight. I think will be a good night.
What is it about Rockingham? How come even a Midland resident can feel superior? Has it got something to do with having that damp teatowel Mark McGowan as local Gauleiter? Do they consider themselves to be country? Two submissions. One from Laus. I’d like to think this is irony Laus. They do have the sense of humour to elect Mark McGowan. Otherwise it would be like Brendon Grylls having bumpkin as a plate.
And Mr X sent this with the implication that a Rockingham resident couldn’t tell the difference between a renal clinic and a police station. Well it appears they can’t.

Scrag is such a beautiful word isn’t it? You can imply so much by saying so little:
“… combines the character traits of sluttyness, ugliness, bitchyness and boozyness into one derogatory insult for a girl.
Note: Can only be used for girls”

Once more, a misuse of a legitimate word by illegitimates.

Bugger!

• dated informal kill, esp. by strangling or hanging.

Strange thought process, thinking that if someone doesn’t notice the rather obvious WA Police sign, they will still notice the nicely typed note on the door.

I quite like the visual imagery of Mark McGowan as a damp tea-towel.
Though I do like his stance on ethnic branch stacking.

An recent visitor from OS commented how bogan (translated from original language) Carousel was. After I stopped laughing, I suggested she should only venture to Midland with an armed guard. Of course that was really high on her list of amazing tourist things to do when you only have a week in Perth.

so no lower than number three on the list

Surprising, I know, but the pink wipers and her general appearance were all that contributed to the plate’s message (know those women you see who could be pregnant, or could just be really fat from a few too many Bulliet Bourbons?).

Lovely pic Laus.
Love the mental image you paint there.
I have learned from experience over the years that if your not sure whether a woman is pregnant or not- you just don’t mention it. It can be embarrassing if you get it wrong.
So this is down Rockingham way where even the pensioners are hoon drivers.
