    I noticed these a couple of weeks ago. They’re so cringeingly suburban. Say what you will about the Town of Vincent, at least they appreciate the difference between Mt Lawley and Duncraig.

    • The stickers turn her from suburban into monster. These sticker graffiteurs have hit all of these signs.

      That’s one hell of a crocodile clasp. Yes the antediluvian set really do make more of Mt Lawley. They do it by charging premium rents and the proceeds go towards bales of pashmina, refurbishing the original local hardwood timbers in their private Nedlands residences, and endless trips to Provence. ‘Building our future’ retirement nest egg that will eventually enrich our hobby-architect offspring’s yacht fund and pay for our grandchildren’s Itunes subscriptions/design diplomas etc etc etc.

    I hate to say it, but I’m not sure that the two pictured people will be part of “our” future. The effacements of the “street artists” seem to acknowledge as much, while the rapturous elderly woman looks as though she’s just about ready to walk into the Light. Nice shot TLA.

    Looks like an ad for a retirement village.

    A couple of members of the Perth hereditary caste of English taxi drivers gleefully recall the good ol days. As the English taxi driver to and from the airport put in their traditional greeting: “It was much better here in the 1960s. Lot of odd coonts around these days, aye. ” Naturally she believes she is Camilla Parker-Bowles. In the background the national anthem of Vincent is playing. You all know the words. “Starry starry night, this is better than fucking Melbourne.” The graffitieur is reminding us of the smell of brimstone in our nose when the popular proposed name for the Town of Vincent, “Deadwood”, was defeated by some Lord. Too american. Yah fook yer. Aye.

    You are the biggest bunch of over-educated, boring, talentless, smug, freeloading, useless, pathetic, useless losers that I have ever had the displeasure of accidentally bumping into. One more so than others, but she shall remain nameless you fucking champagne socialist.

    starry starry night
    someone ripped the GPS out of my car
    they won’t get very far
    the CIB will fit them up with a murder or 9/11
    but in Vincent everything’s cool, it’s heaven
    starry starry night
    over in Dog Swamp there’s a fight
    but I closed the gallery at 6
    for some post-production drinks
    found some Château Cheval Blanc 1924 behind my new cellar wall
    but that’s old Vincent Town, it’s always been part of France for sure.
