Weekend Worstoff 88

WAtching thinks this sign is one metrosexual over the line.

WAtching thinks lunchbar signs should be more like this.

And speking of the Teh sexualis metrocentrus , here’s a nice EBAY offering from David which includes comments from Rockingham. Real Man’s BBQ – Not for metrosexuals or latte drinkers.
And Chris and Anna send this Edgewater Xmas display.

Worst well this weekend.

    Thanks, TLA. Those BBQ questions and replies were 6 of the best pages I’ve read for yonks.

    There is no meal more metrosexual than brunch. I assume it would be some sort of tapas. Me, I much prefer a nice, masculine kebab burger. Mmm, together at last.

    This says everything about the gentrification of our formerly fair city.

    I am guessing the conversation went something like this…

    Adam: I really need some photos done for my business. Do you think you could help me out, Robert?
    Robert Mapplethorpe: Are you kidding me Adam? Sure! I’ll come right over.

    I mean Adam Please. The signage for a fucking lunch bar on Wanneroo Rd in Balcatta should not look like this…

    It should look like this…

    It seems I am not the only one offended, judging by the graffiti on this…

    Is there no end to the march of the Metrocentric Twats?

    Infuriating.

      oh WAtching, as i have admitted previously, i am easily persuaded by shiny, pretty things and was incredibly glad to see such an effort put forth for a bainmarie-of-death lunch bar.

      it shows initiative, commitment and some marketing prowess that commonly does not exist in businesses that often serve the tougher end of the market.

      Good luck Adam! may you sell a thousand crumbed sausages in 2010.

        I only just saw this mp… heheheh…

        I actually ate at Adams Brunchbox yesterday, and it was more infuriating than I thought. Not only are the staff clean and friendly… they wear ties. But it gets worse.
        “There are signs that say “We Know What You Want.” and “Enjoy your Adams Apple.”

        You see, this place is so SNALB (sensitive new age lunch bar), that they insist you take a complimentary apple with your crumbed sausage.

        What’s next. A voucher for colonic irrigation? Mens Groups?

    The barbie is up to $36!

    Bento’s Juliet balcony wouldn’t be able to handle such a fine barbie.

      I suspect there would be something in our strata body management rules banning any barbie not incorporating, as a minimum, a wok burner, pestle & mortar, espresso maker, and, erm, creme brulee burner thingy.

      The barbie would perhaps be more at home here.

        There’s also prolly a clause covering arse scratching from that mind blowingly incompetent piece of legislation : The Strata Titles Act.1985 ( See S42 and Schedule 1 & 2).
