Our clothes are far too damp

Nice that the whinger AND the graffiteur both have spelling problems. I like that. From Hugh Jass.

From Michael. It twould be hard to resist pushing an empty sound deadening pie bag into this Bose bin, especially if Eros “The Armpit” Ramazzotti was playing. Since this is Beeches Tavern in Beechboro, it may well be a worse option. Keith “Grandma’s Feather Bed” McDonald? Does he still torture the eardrums of Old Perthonians? Beeches is not an establishment I’ve heard of before. Don’t think there’s been a Beechborian entry before.

Weekend Worstoff 112

Posted on June 12, 2010 by AHC McDonald

Another from Bento’s Nipponalooza adventure. I didn’t know union officials were so buffed up in Japan.Natalia P shows another of the endless cow art series. I’ve seen worse actually.And James N wants to know why this crazy horse has been chosen to advertise this leather shop. He’s thinking a sardonic grin would be more appropriate. t has the look that the skin of its arse is being cut off for a jacket.

How to buy a shredder

Posted on June 11, 2010 by AHC McDonald

This is from Hokusan, seen at Officeworks in Melbourne, but there’s still time to catch a flight over for the shredder buying course. Officeworks Carlisle might even hold a masterclass here if the numbers are solid. And while we’re in Melbourne, a baffling and bad picture in Yarraville from Meccano.

Tinnie

Posted on June 10, 2010 by AHC McDonald

Cookster sent this lovely photo, probably falling into the not worst category, from some worthy event or other in Bencubbin. I think there were issues with finding out that the place didn’t actually sell piss, but was more endorsing piss as a concept.

He also mentioned his debut in Wangle. Haven’t read it yet, but I hope it is about what a stupid name Wangle is (does it sound like it’s about wanking to you?) and questions why the articles are as interesting as a slightly damp teatowel.

Thoth and Sutek – They’re walking out the door!

Posted on June 10, 2010 by AHC McDonald

I’m thinking new management would deserve better than a handmade rainbow sign. On the other hand, they are selling crystals. I could swear that’s Thoth peeking out down there. And the surly dude at the bus stop in reflection also nice. From Pete F. Are you wearing a wedding dress or toga Pete or is it a trick of light/reflection?

Back Door

Posted on June 9, 2010 by AHC McDonald

Since WAtching failed to record this letterbox’s back door today, here’s one Bento took (does that sound right?) in Japan.

Box

WAtching is keen for this. I would have thought he could have made the effort and covered it with spunk or similar, but in any case, a nice worst. I think this is Vic Park. Home of the Angry Whopper?
