Weekend Worstoff 223

I’m too busy for full weekend worstoff today. Be satisfied with Bento’s Seniors Month mouth watering menu from The Hyde Park Hotel. Wait! Tempura? Didn’t seniors give their lives to stop tempura croassing the Owen Stanley’s?

The streets of this paradise are paved with swans…

Simon G. saw these WA 150th paving slabs, removed presumably during the city development upheaval, sitting behind wire mesh at the City’s Osborne Park depot. She -Ra says that they wil definitely be reused, although I’m not sure if she meant these, or the ones with the historical B Listers inlaid into them in bronze. In any case, I would kill for one of either kind. Of the bronze I would ike “Some Dude – Wheat Farmer”. BTW I am assuming Lisa She-Ra Scaffidi Princess of Power will soon be Lord Mayor of the universe – if The LM of Lagos doesn’t snatch it. I hope you’ve voted. Remember, you could have got Max Kaye.

Vodka comes from the barrel of a gun

We have a great bottleshop in Embleton. (Although you’d think I’d rate a free stubbie holder after all the piss I’ve bought.) Anyway, it caters for all tastes. At (I think $400) do they sell? Apparently yes. A dude bought two. One for each hip.

Mechanics Institute

A strip club stubbie holder in the urinal of small bar Mechanics Institute. I really liked the place, although there was a customer shouting out, “I hate Muslims. I hate Muslims. I really hate them Ay.” Also, the bar was calling for taxidermy deer heads, a motif that is tired and totally played. However there was a lot of barman patter, Elvis and Prince playing, so I am giving it a thumbs up. Included is a rather nice phone photo of the bar by me.

Outrage Sunday 74 fellow illuminati

This lonely City Beach wok gives me haiku urges. It’s south CB, of course.

Scarborough surfboards are also coastally poetic, although I’m thinking more villanelle here, with a dash of unmetered Wintoning.

But ultimately, with or without our woks and surfboards and All-Bran, we are these, no?

I’ll be discussing these thoughts at the next Perth Truth Seekers gig, on the Arrondisement on Wednesday, called Drinks and Have-a-chat’s(you may have to do the Meetup register thing to see the link). “If you want, bring something to share – a DVD or book or anything that impressed, informed or inspired you!” I will surely be bringing Montebello, Bobbie Drewe’s latest. But – is Bobbie one of the illuminati?? “Bring a friend, an open mind and leave your hesitations at home! You can learn a way to a disease free world, how to reclaim your commercial identity, or better understand humanities true essence, or purpose. On the flip-side we show movies about the ‘illuminati’, those self-proclaimed ‘elites’ who have almost completely seized the world into their control. – who they are, how a few powerful individuals have managed to so extensively influence every aspect of humanity.” 7pm start at the Brisbane – see you there!

The Duck Toucher shows how dumb they are on minesites. Everybody knows you have got to use underlining, different fonts and a more annoying tone when writing these signs. Isn’t use of the pie warmer a privilege? WELL IS IT or NOT? Maybe I should run a course, “Writing for laminate.” or “Lamination for dummies.”
And a random shot by NF#1 that I like too. Worst well.
