GrodsCorp is pleasured to announce that long time GrodsReader, Bron, has joined the GrodsTeam as a regular contributor. As a filthy Sydneysider (not that there’s anything wrong with that; some of my best friends are from Sydney) she will bring a much needed non-Melbourne perspective to this site and will also breathe new life into the tired Fleshlight genre. We look forward to publishing her upcoming 40,000 word thesis on the overuse of ellipses in contemporary English written discourse as seen from a feminine gender perspective.

Welcome aboard… Bron!

Oh God.

Yes, thank you very much. Er, it’s payday and late-night shopping, I’ve got to go now.

Welcome, Bron! I can’t wait for the thesis — do you have an abstract to tide us over while we’re waiting?
Bron (Thursday 27 March 2008, 5:34 pm) #

Hang on a second, “GrodsCorp is pleasured…”?

Hiya Bron, looking forward to your posts.

BTW, this site needs another orthographic nazi.

Just saying.

I’ll have something even better, Ant. A PHOTO! Coming tomorrow. I have to actually take the photo first. But it is very Sydney.

If it’s that ghastly opera house, I don’t want to see it.
Bron (Thursday 27 March 2008, 5:39 pm) #

No fear, Ant, I’m not a fan of that ghastly Opera House. How do you like our BEAUTIFUL HARBOUR, though?

Get out, Sydney is situated on a harbour? Tourism NSW must keep that pretty quiet, because I’ve never heard about it.

You know, we’ve got bridges in Melbourne too. “But we’ve got a harbour bridge!” you shriek.

Pfft. Big whoop.

I’m with Chuck. Sick the new Nazi onto those who spell my name wrong…

*ignores Ant*

Almost Always Wrong, whatever you do, don’t start warbling “Ellipse of the Heart”.

Oh, and welcome, Bron, from a loyal groupthinking reader. Looking forward to seeing you in action.
Bron (Thursday 27 March 2008, 5:47 pm) #

No worries, Damien. I am dutiful, if nothing.
Bron (Thursday 27 March 2008, 5:48 pm) #

I don’t shriek, The Ed, I scream like a banshee. Oh, hang on, I’m not a Blairite.

I think it all part of the Grods plan for global domination of the intertubes Damian.

Welcome, Bron. It’ll be good to have another female presence around the shop, I was getting sick of these male chauvinists and their stoopid Fleshlight jokes.

Huzzah! Looking forward to your first post, Bron.

Congrats Bron.
You have reached the Grods hierarchy. The elite. The disciples of leftist Maxism. The fleshlight capital of Blogophon.

… what’s it like?
The Editor (Thursday 27 March 2008, 6:42 pm) #

The elite.

It’s not like that, Terry. We’re all equal here in the People’s Republic Of Grods. The GrodsTeam is just first among those equals.

Welcome Bron.

Now that you’re a contributor, I can tell you the real number for 000.

It’s 001.

Also, we control the Democrats. Yes! Take THAT Senator Allison!

I would imagine, being all boys, very smelly with lots of beer bottles and used tissues everywhere.

“40,000 word thesis on the overuse of ellipses in contemporary English written discourse as seen from a feminine gender perspective.”

And those idiot right wingers think money is being wasted on tertiary education.

That’s it, Terry, you bastard. You’re banned!
Bron (Friday 28 March 2008, 9:28 am) #

Thanks Bridgit. As the new female resident in the house, I shall be addressing the Fleshlight problem later this afternoon. I just have to a bit of work first.
Bron (Friday 28 March 2008, 9:33 am) #

Thanks Keri, I hope you won’t be too disappointed after waiting for so long.

Terry, what’s it like? It’s like lying on a mattress stuffed with $100 bills and Carl Williams next to me. Heaven and hell.

John Surname, thank you for your helpful clarification of 000. As for the Democrats - who?
John Surname (Friday 28 March 2008, 9:39 am) #

TAKE THAT BACK.

Bron, I am ever-so-easily amused, so I wouldn’t fret.

Very good Bron but what’s wrong with $100 dollar bills?
Bron (Friday 28 March 2008, 11:30 am) #

Nothing’s wrong with the $100 bills, Terry. That’s the heaven part.

Mr Surname, don’t cry, you big sook.

Keri, glad to hear it. You might just be my only fan!

So when will we get a GrodsBlogger from Brisbane then? Us oppressed white males from Queensland never get the representation we deserve in the Australian political blogosphere!!
Bron (Friday 28 March 2008, 6:20 pm) #

Where’s “Brisbane”?
Terry Wright (Friday 28 March 2008, 7:23 pm) #

Arrr … now it makes sense.
