Final Fremantle Insult

This is seriously shitty. Not even I would wish something this bad on Cockburn nee Freo. What idiots chose yet another awful Smiths bronze? Along with another fucking sundial? Truly awful. Seen by Pete F.

    “A vulnerable young sailor leaving home to join a ship”.
    Well, at least they got that part right – after the evidence we’ve had lately, about sailors farewells involving vegemite lube, rubber chickens, deep heat, and arse-raping.
    Kind of makes Casuarina look like an abstinent monks retreat, as compared to Navy life, doesn’t it?
    They should have the sailor positioned with a permanently worried look, looking back over his shoulder.
    Navy life obviously lends a whole new meaning to the soldiers advice – “watch my back!”.

    The writer of that piece is on his knees and noshing away. Marvellous display of suckocockancy. The amazing physics defying gnomon is the pearl necklace happy ending.

    Initially I thought it was an early April fools joke or something to do with Rosh Hashanah – is pranking part of new year?
    But for half a million heading to 1.3 surely they could do better. What about the kid who did the fish bike rack at N.cott primary, he’s not that busy.

      Fiscal restraint to politicians and councillors means only spending $377,000 on their office fitout, instead of $379,000.
      Fiscal restraint means flying business class instead of first class when you go to Europe with your partner for that Govt-approved “inspection and report on tourism advances”.
      Fiscal restraint means spending only $1.26M on a bronze statue of yourself outside Bettys Quay, instead of the $3.46M originally planned.
      Fiscal restraint means reducing pensions and pensioner concessions by stealth and connivance, while you steadily increase your own allowances …

    In fact let’s change the title of it to ‘The Australian Sodomy Monument’

    “It depicts a vulnerable young sodomite about to embark on a voyage of discovery during which he gets the ride of his life! ;)”
