Pissing on your rights

Posted on October 31, 2008 by AHC McDonald

Picture me, bursting into the toilets of the Curtin Tavern after reading the Western Toerag (Independent) over six pints at lunch and seeing this. What could I do? I didn’t want to disrespect our organised labour friends, but… Seemed to … Continue reading →

Your carriage awaits…

Posted on October 30, 2008 by AHC McDonald

A chance to get a few of the dozens of cars off the books. First Lukey. Apallingly ill judged though expensive graphic. Gives the impression that there is some major engine problem to produce all that smoke. Big end? And … Continue reading →

A House is not a home…

Posted on October 29, 2008 by AHC McDonald

Mr_JC rightly asks why we haven’t featured Tony Sadler before. How worst is that guy? That voice that droned like a dying dog in Perth heads for how long? 35 years? “A house is not a home without Tony Sadler.” … Continue reading →

Bounty of She-Ra

Posted on October 27, 2008 by AHC McDonald

The Lazy Aussie got a personal invite to Council House today and had a lovely chat with Lisa She-Ra, Lord Mayor of Power, on the couch in her office with a view. I told her to be sure to stay … Continue reading →

Protection Racket

Posted on October 27, 2008 by AHC McDonald

I should start a category of “Coincidence? I think not.” These two pictures were taken a few metres apart. I can’t believe they’re not connected, and yet I’m not really sure how. And another triumph for The Worst of Perth. … Continue reading →

Weekend Worstoff 28

Posted on October 25, 2008 by AHC McDonald

An excellent worst from Téa, combining the brown mist of bore water, with bad education dept spelling. She’s a bit coy on location. Téa will do you a good website too. That she finally got this in TWOP after 6 … Continue reading →

Stunned Comedian Loses Bottle

Posted on October 24, 2008 by AHC McDonald

With the Bedford Crackpot unwilling to front the cameras, it was left to media and Arts Alliance Supremo David Fucking Outrage Cohen (R) to accept his bottle of Howling Wolves from The Lazy Aussie for second place in the Town … Continue reading →

Sniff my llama

Posted on October 24, 2008 by AHC McDonald

Errr? What experience would that be? Is anyone else disturbed by this? Was trying to work out if it could be Troy, but I don’t think so. Llama sniffing would be going too far.

Sorry Day Nurry Day

Posted on October 23, 2008 by AHC McDonald

Some of you may have seen Paul (knowallus blowhardus) Murray’s call for an apology for the state of English teaching in Australia. It seems to me that Paul Murray has far more to apologise for than the teachers. I’ve sent … Continue reading →

Flunk to flunky, Dirt to Dirty

Posted on October 23, 2008 by AHC McDonald

The Worst of Perth was accused of being too booziecentric (Boozocentric?) yesterday. No seriously. In my defence, I have featured dongers wherever I can find them, but they are , perhaps for the best, not as prominent in public art. … Continue reading →
