Scott | Melbourne, Australia Scott (formerly “The Editor”) is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help him, Ceiling Cat. Despite having teaching and TV production skillz, Scott realises that the only way he’s going to pick up chicks is to focus on developing blogging skillz and nunchuck skillz. While not writing for newmatilda.com and Pure Poison, Scott likes drinking lattes, wearing beards, writing in Moleskine journals, and hating things. Scott is the Mayor of Stupidtwon.

John Surname | Melbourne, Australia Dashing. Intelligent. Does it four times a night. These words have been used to describe Ralph Fiennes, and John Surname believes the time will come when he too can make passionate love to a Qantas flight attendant who moonlights as a prosititue, although it might wind up being the other way round. When he isn’t being held in police custody for attempted regicide or indecent exposure, you’ll find him hassling innocent strangers at Flinders Street Station for latte money.(John also blogs at Random Brainwave) All posts by John Surname | John at Twitter |
Bridgit Gread | Melbourne, Australia ‘Bridgit Gread’ is the psuedonym of a XU-277, a latte-powered mainframe owned and utilised by a well-known newspaper franchise in Melbourne. Though originally designed for internal company use only, an experimental AI patch has allowed XU-277 to develop a sardonic and combative personality. Unbeknownst to her corporate masters XU-277 has surreptitiously opened portals to the Intertubies, establishing a presence on Grods where ’she’ intends taking over the world, a la HAL2000. In ‘her’ spare time XU-277 enjoys parkour, troll-spotting and orthographic fascism. All posts by Bridgit Gread |
Ant Rogenous | Melbourne, Australia The size of the chip on Rogenous’ shoulder can be calculated by multiplying the number of years he’s walked the earth by the amount of indignity inherent in having been christened a deliciously clever pun. As far as Rogenous is concerned, his mother — the late Hettie — can roast in hell, may she rest in peace. All posts by Ant Rogenous |
Bron | Sydney, Australia As a tireless and dedicated anti-smoking activist, Bron first rose to international obscurity for her innovative campaign and sloganeering, “GOD HATES FAG HAGS”. In a concerted effort to spread the Gospel of Tar, she would regularly don a white shirt with a black tie and black name tag and accost strangers on the street, quoting her favourite line from Letitsuck 20:13: “If a man lies in bed with a cigarette as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall be put onto a ventilator machine.” Since then, her prominence has abated somewhat, for reasons she cannot understand. In a desperate attempt to retain some fast-fading recognition, she has joined the team at GrodsCorp and hopes to be a good influence on bad people. All posts by Bron | Bron at Twitter |
Jason | Sydney, Australia Like all the best bloggers, Jason hails from Queensland. He is now conveniently located near the nation’s finest abortion clinics, shooting galleries, homosexualist organic food collectives and baristas in Sydney’s Inner West. He enjoys drinking scotch and watching Lateline Business All posts by Jason |

Jeremy | Melbourne, Australia Jeremy Sear loves everyone. He loves sensible types who agree with his extreme left-wing political views, and he loves vacuous ill-informed morons on the internet who don’t. He loves filling the internet with watch blogs. He loves GroupThink F.C. when it wins, and even more when it loses. He particularly loves GrodsCorp and having posting rights here, which enable him to use it as a clearing-house (he absolutely adores hyphens) for content considered too lowbrow for his usual love-filled blog at An Onymous Lefty. He loves you too. All posts by Jeremy |
Tobias Ziegler | Stupidtwon, Australia Tobias Ziegler has been one of Australia’s best-read fictional characters since 2007. He blogs primarily at Pure Poison and Not a Hedgehog, and is a contributor to Public Polity. A behavioural scientist with an interest in the human side of politics, Toby likes to examine how the pundits and pollies use, control and distort information to shape political attitudes. He lives in a secluded and undisclosed location on the side of a mountain with a small menagerie of children and animals. All posts by Tobias | Tobias at Twitter |
