Lite Fruity Lexia

All those Fruity Lexia parties we had, I have found, most of it was sad. All that wildness, all those laughs, all that puking our rings, the blowing up of the be-silvered bag, “splitting the infinitives” of the secretaries, the “play” dry humping of male colleauges… It’s as if it were were like the shining silver and gold paper on packages, but there was nothing inside, nothing. Zoltan Kovac, excerpt from retirement speech from the West November 2009.

It’s finally here. The 5 litre box of student leg opener that won’t go to your thighs! Even open thighs! And if your dog eats your lawn pizzas he can be fighting obesity at the same time as well! Ahh, I can still remember when 5 litres of Fruity Lexia was $4.99.

Secret Piss Business

Jordache saw this in The Sunday Times. She sez…

I just finished reading an article in STM (why I torment myself this way is another subject entirely) about the “forgotten children” of Australia who were taken from their parents and put into orphanges. This particular article revolves around two children who were taken away from their mother as a result of her being an alcoholic. So, with this in mind, you can understand my total jaw dropping shock at seeing an advertisement FOR WINE right in the middle of the article. Not only that, but the wine’s tag line is “Where Secret’s Live” and throughout the article this poor woman is describing how she has lived WITH THIS TERRIBLE SECRET her whole life. Is this a joke? It has to be a joke right?

Not the first time New Zealand wine has been featured. Is that a greenstone niple ring?

Million Chong March Competition

Looks like a reasonable consensus is Saturday the 28th November, early evening at The Brisbane Hotel for a celebration of a million TWOP views.

Also announcing a competition for who can get a screenshot closest to a million. (For those with PCs, to get a screenshot it is usually Shift+Prtscreen to copy it, and you can then paste it into an image program or even word. Prtscreen is up in the top right.) I’m guessing the million will be hit between Wednesday and Saturday.

The prize will be some kind of TWOP merchandise, which the winner can choose, such as this wonderful Mandurah Canals Tee.manji

Last stand of the Metrosexual

Here’s a picture that was first offered to The Worst of Perth, then snatched back Indian giver style when the Sunday Times entered a bidding war. I couldn’t compete with the chequebook journalism so had to wait to show it. I’m sure far more constructive criticism will be generated here rather than Teh Times. A metrosexual making his last stand against the Rosemount bouncers? It’s like something from Proust. Maybe even a Fin de siècle?  He may even have smart shoes on. The outcome, (which can be seen here in video) is a blow for all right thinking bumpkosexuals. Thanks Shonquice. Apparently the conversation went,

Metrocentric: Give back my Pahmina you cunt!

Bouncer: Pashminas are for girls. You were warned to stop insouciantly flicking it over your shoulder.

Metrosexual: A pashmina refers to the type of fibre. They can be worn by both sexes. It’s a simple handmade shawl…

Bouncer: Let me just get my colleague so we can discuss this further. He’s a massive pashmina fan.

Weekend Worstoff 81

Sorry this post has been a little cunctatious this morning. Melbourne is really making a laughing stock of itself with these world class facility barriers. We’ve already had a world class bucket, someone else (sorry I can’t find your email) sent one of a world class broken button, and now Hokusan sends in a world class crashed taxi that has run over people on the footpath. Hokusan also wants to make sure you see this website, Hot Chicks with Douchebags,  which is fantastic. Also, don’t forget that the Dennis Lillee Queen sized matress is up for grabs. Owner wants to upgrade to a Merv Hughes. Anyone interested and I will pass it on.week81taxiAnd Chris asks why can’t it be Tour OF Perth. Tour De Perth makes us sound like plonkers. Yes it does. Who is going to say Tour DE Perth without some shameful mumbling. Perthaps we can have L ‘Art Gellery De WA as well to add some vibrant ooshta. week81deperthAnd bento saw the most vibrancy deficient house in Perth, where everything even the taps and hose fittings are painted the same drab colour.

Bento Says..Everything on this house is the one colour – chimney, doors, door locks, window boards, window frames, fence…  Even the fucken tap is painted the same colour.  Maybe they painted it with a cropduster. Never before have I gazed on such blandness.  Apparently it is the oldest free-standing house in Mt Lawley.  On Walcott Street, corner Gerald Street. week81whitehouseweek81whitetapAnd a lovely if poorly focused worst from Teh Cookster on Rottnest of what could easily be the worsterest cup ever seen by man or beast. Are those strings dishwasher safe? Or is it a jug? In any case, fucking horrible. Thanks Cookster.week81quokkaWorst well everyone.

Fangin’ Swandogs

Plus we have you on video dickhead

Is this as bad as putting up an anti skidmark sign in the staff bog? Another from G’day. videoAnd1  from zippy just because apparently I never put anything up they send. I need to change email. I can’t highlight things in hotmail. I’m sure this is much gold I have in my inbox which would be just too hard to find. Zippy says…

Hi Lazy,
Add this to your collection of images I’ve sent in that you never publish. The plaque is on the wharf at Freo. The fish and chips were WAY over priced, but the waitress happily explained the Shit On You acronym free of charge. Nice. Much love, Zippy. seagull

Lest We Forget our Muffins

Muzz Buzz in South Perth. Apparently chalked without irony. Submitted by Zoot Finster. I assume the cappucino foam frother was silenced for 2 minutes as well. And does that poppy have a touch of the Tiny Pinders about it? muffin
