Weekend Worstoff 95

Posted on February 13, 2010 by AHC McDonald

Jealous of G’Day from Wa’s good fortune, as he received this lovely object recently. He shows it in display mode and in natural environment. Calum has also been the vitim of the condom on the letterbox bandit. This time it’s in bedford. When is Klag O’Callamity going to stamp out this problem? And speaking of birth control, this photo of Leisure Island freaks found by Brer Bento would put anyone off family life. Worst well.

Danger

Posted on February 12, 2010 by AHC McDonald

Two danger shots I have taken, one at Curtin University and one at University of Science and Technology in Hong Kong. A tree and a lawn of danger.

On TV

Posted on February 12, 2010 by AHC McDonald

People have sent in shots of Michael Keenan’s publicity photos before, several asking why he seemes to be wearing eye makeup. He was also mentioned a year ago when he couldn’t work out whether he should have his flag up or whether he should  haul it down down to honour bushfire dead. WAtching found another excuse with this TV bus stop Keenan installation. Another subtle worst for the history books.

The Cash Nexus

Posted on February 11, 2010 by AHC McDonald

Saw a “Marxism, why don’t we give it one more try?” poster at Curtin, but an ad pinned nearby shows that the spirit of capitalism cannot be broken. If it was a rolly, they might be taking control of the means of production. A 4 day Marxism conference? Now that’s one event that really WILL be all about the rooting.

The Vagrant & The Bag Lady

Posted on February 10, 2010 by AHC McDonald

It seems like every second Perth driver is feverishly attempting to make themselves look like a dickhead with a witty number plate, (including Outrage Cohen).  So much so that the genre is just about sucked dry here at The Worst of Perth. These two however have added that extra layer of irony that takes them to the next level. You’ll need to beat this to get another licence plate published. Did he actually mean vagrant? I’m thinking he might just have got the wrong word. Was he trying for drifter? Bum may also have been taken already. Bento has spent months trying to capture this plate. Apparently Mrs Bento doesn’t even bother to roll her eyes anymore when he takes out his camera. Bag Lady is all mine. At least she’s not a fart in a bag lady.

Sandalis

Posted on February 9, 2010 by AHC McDonald

You love that which you can lose, yourself, a woman, a country, a pair of sandals. Whenever we show pity, we empty our souls. Guibariane did not die of fear, he died out of shame – Shame for his stinking clodhoppers. The salvation of humanity is in its shame! Andrei Tarkovsky’s Solaris, 1972

This is the sort of subtle worst that I love. It gives the impression that the owner of the manky sandals stepped out of them and floated away after being shamed by the new shoes in the Nedlands window at night. Another gentle reminder that the rapture is still coming. Ellie saw these on Hampton Rd in Nedlands. She also claimed that the area was crawling with cockroaches, which may be the explanation for the giant bite taken out of the sandals. Another subtle worst to delight the historians of the future. Who the fuck was this Mainy they keep talking about? And sandals? Why Perth, why?

Airport 77

Posted on February 9, 2010 by AHC McDonald

Is it a weathervane? Is it a folly? Is it an attack drone? Shazza found this rooftop accoutrement in Spearwood. It turns in the wind apparently.

The Pink lovin’ pink car shouldn’t venture to Darlington. Pink CDs are cast out as rubbish, waiting for the next bushfire to consume her evil pinky sounds. Some may remember the similar sad but well deserved fate for the Travelling Wilburys.

Forgive Tiger

Posted on February 8, 2010 by AHC McDonald

Richarbl sends in a fine worst where an ad for a garage sale is extended to pleading forgiveness for Tiger Woods’ willie. I came for the broken Atari, but stayed to forgive the Tiger donger its transgressions. To have an errant donger is human. To  forgive one is divine. Northbridge.

Weekend Worstoff 94

Posted on February 6, 2010 by AHC McDonald

Bento saw this in Inglewood. Sled dogs must love living in perth. Perineum saw another attempt at goon bag bird control in Highgate. Is there nothing these crazy bags can’t do? Perineum also claims to be uncovering the worsts of WA history on his/her blog.And Gil spotted an old hearse in Maddington with a typical Maddington resident inside. Obviously off to the Maddington Swingers Club. Thank you. Worst well.
