Weekend Worstoff 139

Two by Rehana. Feel the style and the brutality.Rob C likes the new look refreshment centre at Warwick Train Station. Looks like a bottled water selling machine. Suck on that irony water machine.Yoriks saw this next to a “Reception Donga” in Port Hedland. I feel they could have done worse. Perhaps that’s why it’s a worst, because it’s in Port Hedland and is not errr worser? How dare they not have something more terrible. In Hedland! Outrage!And Jaidyn-Jaxxon saw some concrete work that thoughtfully informs future archeologists (future cunts) that it was 2004 AD not BC.

    What is a donga?

    And does the object pictured next to the donga have a purpose or was it just one of those “put bad art here” things?

    • A donga is a shipping container made into accommodation. Very common in mining towns. I think mining companies are forced to spend some amount on “art”. Wasted on Port Hedland though. One of the world’s toilets.

      A donga is a demountable building widely used by our burgeoning mining industry for accomadation, offices brothels etc.

      The artwork seems to be made of recycled machinery parts.

      Perhaps Bo’T could tell us what they are.

      • I think it’s made of railway track.

        @WAtching

        To be perfectly honest, I haven’t a clue, but I would guess that the sculpture might be made of slices of a hoist gantry rail, or train tracks as somebody already suggested.

        What I can tell you is that the blue Falcon XR6 is a BA model with one of their taillights not working, quite obviously driven by some new-age bogan (NaB); they’re the ones who have ridiculous tattoos in gothic script, have personalised plates that are supposedly “clever” in combining alpha and numerics to form a word fixed to their luridly-ducoed Falcodores, use waaay too much hair product, drink energy drinks from massive cans and wear Ed Hardy shirts…they’re a rather more pernicious beast than the V8 Kingswood-driving, flanno-wearing, Acca/Dacca-listening and Winnie Blue-smoking old-school bogan. To further understand this emergent phenomenon, visit the Things Bogans Like website, whereupon you may find blog entries devoted to such topics covered in my description of this menace.

        Oh, and also they’re waiting—most likely, very impatiently—at the lights on Benara Road, crossing the Tonkin Highway, heading due West.

          … to go where ? I’ve headed west on Benara Road (mistakenly thinking it was Morley Drive), crossed Tonkin Highway, within minutes found myself literally in the middle of nowhere, feeling trapped.

      Thanks all.

      I don’t think we have dongas in New York. We specialize more in buildings that were intended to be permanent and then somehow wound up being temporary, if you know what I mean.

      Look up “Pennsylvania Station” to learn more.

    future cunts? per che?

    Like

    • Are you asking about the reference? If so. Since the Worst of Perth is being archived by the national/state library, there is the feeling that in the milennia to come, it will be much used by historians, researchers, writers and other such ne’er do wells. These types have become known as “future cunts”, and you will often see comments directed at these lollygaggers from the distant future. eg “hey future cunts, do you still remember Mainy?” or “Yo future cunts in the year 5000. Has The Guildford Hotel been repaired yet?” &cetera.

    For anyone curious if they are Bathory lyrics on that car or not:
    “Step aside or you might just be the next contestant to feel the brutality”

    The song is The Curse by that popular beat combo Disturbed.

    It sounds much softer than I expected. It’s about as metal as Nickelback.

    “Devastation, Obliteration are all in a part of Eccasorbation” is the next line. A pity they didn’t get that medical term on their window. It made me look up Exacerbation.
