Twilight Jocks for Dad

Posted on September 3, 2009 by AHC McDonald

Today’s the Worst of Perth live show day. Has been quite a lot of interest. I think  it will be a good night.

I was looking for a Fathers Day image, and Matt found one. I would love to see the look on a father’s face if he was bought Twighlight shoelaces or choker for his big day. Especially when he was expecting a Twighlight hammer drill. And any Dad who asked for an Edward Twilight poster, he’s got to be a “Special breed of Cat.” Matt found this in Rockingham. Thingz Rockinham might well cater for a special breed of cat. Who knows? I’m not going there to find out. The last shot I took in Rocky, I put the camera on fast shutter and sped past. Or maybe I’m missing the point. Maybe fathers in Rockingham are frequently under 12 years old? And $50 for a choker? Fuck off! Don’t pay more than $34.

Legalise it

Posted on September 2, 2009 by AHC McDonald

“Are some flowers more beautiful than others? The garden is beautiful. Do I prefer brother over brother?

Comparisons are part of this political world. Where there is one, there is no conflict.

Where there is two or more, there is conflict. Two is the devil. Conflict begin with the devil.

We count 0 to 1, then back to 0. It is a circle.” Peter Tosh

I wasn’t sure about the legalities of providing a link to this, in any case it may not be in the best interests of the occupants anyway, but these pics, via a disreputable source are from a current reiwa for sale ad in the northern suburbs of Perth. It was still up tonight as I type this.  Obviously the occupants weren’t home when the agent came round to take the shots, or they wouldn’t have left their mull bowl and scissors out on the table. They may also have had a chance to put the rest of their plants away in the shed. The pixellation is mine. Trying to give the dumb bastards a chance to smoke all their crop before the police or fence jumpers descend on them. Odd that the agent took the shots anyway. Odd, but hilarious. But wait, is the agent in on the joke? The ad suggests you can easily grow tomatoes in the garden.

At least they don’t say “hugely deceptive”.

BYO

Posted on September 1, 2009 by AHC McDonald

Since I inadvertantly published today’s yesterday, I thought I’d just put up a bonus post from Augusta. It’s on the side of an ex cafe. It says BYO, but the logo may be a rodent. Not sure. Mysterious. We should have eaten there instead of the hotel. Was very ordinary. They should concentrate on piss dispensing exclusively.

Hugely Deceptive

Posted on August 31, 2009 by AHC McDonald

Cimbali wonders wether “deceptive” was exactly the word they were looking for. I hope the second granny flat isn’t the blue pool cover cupboard. I suppose everyone has a favourite and least favourite granny.

The Worst of Perth Live

Posted on August 31, 2009 by AHC McDonald

There have been many talkfests about the future of Perth recently, each more moronic than the last. (Fuck me drunk, someone seriously suggested monorails at the last one.) The topic of  my presentation on Thursday will be the REAL future of Perth. Do we go with a giant Lisa Scaffidi straddling Great Eastern Highway as an entry statement (and to deter vandals), or emulate the house in Sucess which had a toilet in the front garden. The answer, is both.

Luckily for those going, the wonderful Andrew Horabin is in town and will be a guest performer. The wonderfuls Werzel and Ben Sutton will also be my special guests. The powerpoint is lookng great, so should be an excellent night.

Perth Comedy Lounge Charles Hotel North Perth Call John 9309 1139 for booking or details. $15. Doors open at 7pm, and the show starts at 8. You can just show up, but if you want a specific table, ring John. You can also book tickets at BOCS 9484 1133. THURSDAY 3RD SEPTEMBER

Your Bike Path be The Shit

Posted on August 31, 2009 by AHC McDonald

Don’t bring scared business to me
Mon roughest, toughest rude boy (papa smurf)
Me murda for fun
Ya heard me? Lil’ Wayne, Reggae Shit

What can I say. If your bike path is shit – it be shit man. Beautiful penmanship though.  I like that they found the path to be shit, dismounted, formed some beautiful letters, then rode on. Or maybe they walked if the path was the  shit. Such a fine line between a bike path that is “the shit” and one that’s just shit. This was on the new bike path between Bayswater and Ashfield. Hey, both destinations be shit man, so a shit path be righteous eh? Lovely find from Mark0. I’m suspecting a graphic designer or calligrapher did this. Whoever they are. They be the shit. Or a shit.

Wheels on Fire

Posted on August 28, 2009 by AHC McDonald

I laughed a lot when I received this. Pathetic laughter. A sort of open mouthed cackling. This one is almost Banksy quality. It’s bad, but still hypnotic. A story is being told by the ghost of Kuleshov I think. The chair facing away from the woman, the rough graphics. Add a man and bowl of soup and you’re halfway to the fucking Odessa Steps. Via Shazza, seen at South Fremantle IGA staff bog. I would like to follow the thought processes for this one. How does the idea spark from knowing you have a pen, to doing this? And why was a flange not added to the other model? wheelchaircu

Sin of The Chin

Posted on August 27, 2009 by AHC McDonald

JC asked the pertinent question of what happened to Colin Barnett’s chins in his website photo. Is he sucking them in? Is the shot from Colin’s High school days? Did they have colour photography back then? Indeed. Don’t worry, JC bogged up a more faithful rendition of ole “asleep before he even got to the wheel” Barnett. Looks like he’d have an Irish accent in the bottom one for some reason. Ah to be sure. thanks JC.
