If you two so called celebrities can still harden your hearts and not come to Perth after seeing this photo, then I hope you both end up in hell. Soon. And although I hate both your shows, (Ellen, you seem demented, and Oprah you appear as an overly cheerful moron,) many Perth people think you are cool and that our city would somehow be more vibrant after a visit from youse, notwithstanding how hideous you both appear me. So think about it.
Your humble servant TLA.

Ahh, the STS. From an inconveniently isolated part of the inner suburbs, to an inconveniently isolated part of the city, in just over triple the time it would take to drive. How could it possibly fail?

You forgot to mention the completely inconvenient timetable, never mind the circular logic that cutting services leads to falling patronage which means you might as well cut services.

No she couldn’t. Miss Oprah is a civilized and po-lite American lady. She uses the ‘restroom’, the ‘washroom’ or maybe even the ‘bathroom’, but she never goes to the ‘toilet’. She probably can’t even say the word out loud in public.

You shortsighted simpletons. Always erring on the side of ignorance instead of seeing how the benefits to your state outweigh your reclusive wowser comfort zone.
Anyways your backwater state deserves to be isolated ever more. Especially if you cannot keep up with the tourism other states get. And if you are too bogan to understand how this global market works, then to hell with your smallminded city stuck in the 80s. You would only be a blight on Oprah’s timetable. Better you sink than swim. You make me embarrassed to call myself Australian, having to acknowledge you lot.
