Head Wagon

Posted on October 21, 2010 by AHC McDonald

One from the much missed Bedford Crackpot, who now spends his time mulching this, and sustaining that. A loss to worsting. Inglewood.

Worst Destination

Posted on October 21, 2010 by AHC McDonald

The Financial review by way of Pete F. And a possible reason. People returning from the 2008 Masters were spreading the word. “No fucking elephants, and we didn’t see unicorn one.” Thanks Ferdy and Adam G. Another reason? We have shops still selling videotapes and books. So last century. By Ljuke.

Lock and Load Las Ramblas

By Ljuke. Carlisle. Just off Las Ramblas. Surprising it’s not on fire. With cocks drawn all over it.

Small bars reach end of days

Posted on October 20, 2010 by AHC McDonald

If there needed to be any sign that the small bars craze had reached rapture point, then see this. Could someone really call it The Boheme? (aka “Teh ‘Heme”) You’d think it would be hard to go worse than the name Bobby Dazzlers. The whole Wentworth Plaza redevelopment is looking pretty sick. The barest sliver of facade is finding it difficult to conceal a a monster of concrete behind. The Boheme. Kill me now. Oh god, there’s even a fucking accent on the e. By Bento.

Raise a Kunts to Bento

Posted on October 19, 2010 by AHC McDonald

MH found the ideal picture with which to congratulate Brer and Lady Bento on the birth of their child. Noranda Beer Shop – mislabelling like a fox! They might even have had Bento in mind. Good riddance to the carefree metrosexual life Gran Torobaya! That noisy motorbike will be converted to a Bongovan people mover in a few months. I assume Lady B is discovering that yes, midwives are all horrible witches.

War and Peace

Posted on October 19, 2010 by AHC McDonald

By Meccano. Melbourne. If you’re throwing out your Bible AND Warcraft paraphernalia, there’s only one explanation. Minecraft. I wish Meccano had looked in the Warner Music tube. Tupac anyone?

Irrational Hatred #6 The Guildford Hotel

Posted on October 18, 2010 by AHC McDonald

I’ve just about had enough of The Guildford Hotel. In the light of some more ineffectual protesting highlighted by Outrage Cohen, (the socks being another pathetic example), let me throw my weight behind the demolition option, so Guildfordwegians can have closure and can start to suck up the hangi based humiliation of having to patronise The ‘Ling down the road. Reclaim the night. No-one went to Le Gill when it wasn’t burnt anyway. No skimpies, no hangis, no nothing, why should they? Time for a Liqorland, preferably built out of light brown brick or, failing that, a place where concrete swan planters and old hand tools can be sold in the ruins without need of a roof.

Poseidon’s Penis

Posted on October 18, 2010 by AHC McDonald

By Dave. Yeah. Right on. Is that 9307 2356? I’d like to enquire about your 2011 penises. And one of many, many more graphical representations sent to me daily, on by Chris in Shenton Park. and another by Chris, although it may be another Chris, from Como. Reserved parking for the Mayor of South Perth?

Weekend Worstoff 129

Posted on October 16, 2010 by AHC McDonald

Tristan H saw that the downward spiral of Dunsborough is being made even more exquisite. “Le” boatshed? Jeezus. I wonder what Brendon would think? This is not connected to my Le Specs wearing.People have sent me this Morley wall before. Ninja wants a truck to run through it. It’s not without charm though. Outrage Cohen remembers the battery man who used to ply plates of batteries on William Street. Now probably occupied by a shop selling ironic objects to hipsters. And Glenn is confused by Am Confused website. I’m not surprised. I am a little confused by their “wacky” graphic design.

And Charlesjhey, now in London, sent this Melbourne shot taken by a friend.

Worst well.
