Irrational Hatreds #1. Tim Winton

Posted on October 19, 2009 by AHC McDonald

Someone, I think it was AGB labelled my anti Tim Winton sentiment as an irrational hatred. I like that as a label, especially as I really don’t know why he just shits me so much. He’s like a John “Bono” Butler without the American accent. He can turn out a nice sentence, although I thought that Cloud Street was sort of like fake WA nostalgia. I haven’t really got anything to base my irrational hatred on. I’m passionately against his idea for Hyde Park Lakes being turned into a dugong sanctuary, despite the fact that I made that up myself. Since I usually only like original photos, I haven’t had any entre into specific anti Wintoning. Richarbl has sent a picture of the Cover of Cloud Street which does look pretty bad, (particularly that sticker) so I guess I’ll have to go with that. Thanks Richarbl.winton

Firm but Manky.

Posted on October 19, 2009 by AHC McDonald

A Perth worst that’s so perfect, it’s beyond quintessential. From Jazzrusso. Jazz, if you got the mattress when Dennis’ hair was like that, could I ask if it’s getting a little manky by now? He’s much more like THIS or worse these days. What a superb find. Is he still firm? And the chin. I just can’t keep my eyes off it. I wish Jazz had taken a bigger shot, so I could fill the screen with that incredibly outre chin. It’s like a scene from Caligula.lilleelillecu

Not without my Ipod

Posted on October 18, 2009 by AHC McDonald

Nick spotted this Walkley quality item from The Subiaco Post. At least one ipod taken? The fucking humanity!  Police are refusing to confirm that an AM radio and a flab blaster were also netted in this haul. Perhaps this is one of the famous ironic pieces from Outrage Cohen, the Post’s New Age Paul Murray? ipod

You know my methods Watson…

Posted on October 16, 2009 by AHC McDonald

“It seemed to me that a careful examination of the bus seat and the saliva might possibly reveal some traces of this mysterious individual. You know my methods, Watson. There was not one of them which I did not apply to the inquiry. And it ended by my discovering traces, but very different ones from those which I had expected. ie semen.”
The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes (1893) “The Soggy Seat”.  I would be very interested to see one of these CSI bus drivers in action. They would have to do it at night though in low, preferably blue lighting.spit

The Sign of Three

Posted on October 16, 2009 by AHC McDonald

Three notes seen around the place. I did like the Dalkeith House pic and loved the No Derows disclaimer. And urgent sale! I’ve just realised that Farnham is a complete knob! A more generous discount would have been better, or was that what they’d pay you to take the tickets? And the last one I have no idea what it’s about. derowderowcufarnhamsloppy

Future Perthers Spread Tentacles

Posted on October 15, 2009 by AHC McDonald

Bento sent in this ad for Town of Vincent candidate Matt Buckels. Bento was seething with rage that Matt apears to be sipping a latte, and that he’s not rowing on Hyde Park lake. He’s a founding member of Future Perthers too, which also enraged comrade Bento. The ad gives me the same feeling as hearing Tim Winton speak. It justs shits me for unknown reasons. If Winton wants to save dugongs, I automatically want them exterminated. If Winton wants subsidies for authors, I want them taxed heavily. Same with Matt. Previously I might have been supportive of recyling all plastics. NOW I  am determined to just recycle a few. Previously I would have loved to see Hyde Park’s lakes rehabilitated. NOW I will make it my life’s work to have them filled with unrecycled plastic, then hotmixed over. He has a masters in urban design but is against all talk and no action. I don’t think the two things are compatible.

Trucks new target for Barnett

Posted on October 14, 2009 by AHC McDonald

After taking on the mighty bong industry, Colin (Asleep before he even got to the wheel) Barnett and Rob (Starka) Johnson will turn their attention to trucks. Thanks to Cimbali for this picture. No doubt Labor will also blindly support this truck arresting policy. arrester
