Lucy in the Ute with STD’s

Posted on July 29, 2009 by AHC McDonald

Get your cunt out? What happened to show us your tits? Was a simple “Clean Me” not out there enough to write in this genuine Cunderdin dust? Or maybe it’s  dust from cutting up the Lathlain Park carpark over the road. Presumably Bradzy has inflicted this irony soaked message on his mate’s car who unwittingly drove all the way from Cunderdin unaware at this supreme wittiness. Oh how he’ll laugh when he finds out that Lucy’s bedroom expertise is now known to everyone who followed his crapwagon down Great eastern Highway to the smoke.  Jesper, please note. THIS is irony in its purest form.

The Worst of Perth Live Sept 3rd

Posted on July 28, 2009 by AHC McDonald

Skink made up this ad for The Worst of Perth Live show to be held at the Charles on Thursday September the 3rd, under the auspices of The Comedy lounge. Thanks Skink, although I actually requested Patti Chong and She-Ra Scaffidi mud wrestling. I have already started putting the multimedia spectacular together.  Closer to the date I will give you the booking phone numbers etc. I think it’s going to be spectacular. I notice that the Armani store has just opened in perth today, so there’s no excuse not to be tarted up like Patti Chong. Jesper, hope you can make time to come down with a bag of Svenkage.

Mr Fist

Posted on July 28, 2009 by AHC McDonald

When I first started The Worst of Perth, I ran down to Murray Street to find the famous Mr Fist sign, but unfortunately it had gone. It was somewhere near the Bra Bar in Murray Street. The original was rendered in terrible stick on letters you might buy from Bunnings. I was delighted that Tim found thet Teh Fist was still punching em out down some alley, but disappointed that he’s slightly upgraded his graphic design. There should be a Miss Fist for the ladies too. The Mr Fist sign should be heritage protected.

No Computer No Cry

Posted on July 25, 2009 by AHC McDonald

If you’re reading this, it means my computer has not been returned to me by the weekend, so no posts.

maybe you should check out the marvellous Perth 6000 if you haven’t seen it.

Next post mid morning Monday.

BTW it looks like September 3rd will be the Live the Worst of Perth Show.

Wee Sanely

Posted on July 24, 2009 by AHC McDonald

Perhaps there will be a flood of passive aggressives since Bento opened that door. Here’s one from Prince Angar of Avacal aka Ninefingers (really?). And one from Meccano. A sign like this would make me want to urinate all over the sanity bin. We have a sign in our toilet which urges gentlemen to clean up their accidents. Now listen “I’m not your mother!” I am not going to clean up a work toilet, even if i don’t even reach the door before starting.

Meccano’s Wee Man is perhaps too disturbing to comment on. Do these people have a toilet that’s a couple of metres off the ground? A six month old toddler would be taller if that’s a real toilet. His knees appear to be well below the level of the bowl. If your child’s chest is level with the seat, then slashing the floor is the least of his problems.

Beauty and The Butcher

Posted on July 23, 2009 by AHC McDonald

This is a lovely photo by Illusiver from the town of Brookton in the wheatbelt. Brookton’s famous Avenue de Beaute draws people from as far away as Corrigin and Shackleton. The butcher can do the odd botox treatment or bust enhancing surgery if there’s a queue at the salon. Brendon Grylls had his lips done in this very butcher’s shop.

Thanks Illusiver. Cute.

Front Bottom?

Posted on July 22, 2009 by AHC McDonald

Bento could only guess at the extremes of passive aggressive that went into these bin labels. There must have been months of post-its, emails and verbal pleas for people to PLEASE put the bins facing the road otherwise they won’t be picked up. Beaufort Street.

I should get a photo of the kitchen in a nearby department where signs tell you that “These microwaves are a privilege not a right.”

Send your old fonts to Africa

Posted on July 21, 2009 by AHC McDonald

Jack found this in Ashfield and sent it in as a graphic design nightmare. How sad that charities and similar tend to use donated graphic design from people who are not familiar with the concept. Surely we can donate Papyrus font to Africa too?

Apart from graphic hell, I did have the awful feeling that this might be a pic of Gadiel after he’s been helped by Ashfieldonian fashion experts. It’s very Britney. I’ve seen Ashfield residents looking worse than this. And they weren’t churchgoers either. Is Africa really in such strife that old manchester encrusted with Ashfield semen could make things better? If so, Obama better visit again with some old underpants from his student days.

Fright of the Phoenix

Posted on July 20, 2009 by AHC McDonald

“Let me tell you a story. A rabbi and a priest attend a boxing match. They watch as the boxers come into the ring. The rabbi sees one of the boxers cross himself. So the rabbi turns to the priest and asks, “What does that mean?” The priest says, “Not a damn thing if the man can’t fight.” Flight of the Phoenix crap 2004 remake.

Chris saw this sad sight at the Phoenix Shopping Centre in Spearwood. Kwinana Hub not good enough for you eh motherfucker? I had to shoot wedding videos at that location many years ago.  Unlike the phoenix, the crikey man won’t rise again, but kiddies can still feel the love of a crocodile hunter breathing down their necks  for a little longer if they have a two dollar coin.
