    Damn Marxist education system!

    I blame public school teachers.

    The Holocaust didn’t happen anyway and Hitler was Left wing… umm, hold on, if Hitler was Left wing, then it did happen.

    Oh and I won’t be commenting her for a few months because I am going to Avon Gorge in a few hours to try my luck and then moving on to see the fake gas chambers elsewhere. Bye.

    He might know about history but he sure as fuck can’t spell. I blame the public education system too.

    Did anyone read my comment? I’m going and I won’t be back.

    OK, I’m back, but after this comment I won’t be.

    Well with an attitude like that he shouldn’t be an Oz citizen - as we all know the Don is a vital component of our migrant to citizen testing system (though admittedly under review).

    On a side note, I know you Grods lads (+ Bridg - who I assume is woman), appreciate some quality (sic) photoshopping …

    OK, I’m back, but after this comment I won’t be.

    While you’re out, don’t forget to call in on both your step-parents.

    Bridg - who I assume is woman

    Yes, hear me roar.

    Yes, hear me roar.

    As I mop the kitchen floor,
    and I know well enough not to complain,
    And look, it’s my bore,
    traipsing mud in through the door,
    I’d better clean up and serve beer yet again!

    Sorry… Couldn’t resist.

    Very funny Bruce.

    you know that sinking feeling you get looking at a major car accident a split second before impact….

  17. Saturday 12 July 2008, 8:44 pm #Bruce

    Sorry. I’ve been listening to a new compilation album Alexander Downer’s Most Loved Hits: Preferably The Ones That Batter and I couldn’t get the tune out of my head.

    You should see The Prodigy vs Bill Heffernan remix.

    You should see The Prodigy vs Bill Heffernan remix.

    And no, that’s not a mistake. You would be amazed at what you can get through customs once you get ambassadorial status.

    Of course, failing to have such pharmacological perks at the border, you can always draw your tongue across the nape of Piers Ackerman’s neck.

    “you can always draw your tongue across the nape of Piers Ackerman’s neck.” before having it surgically removed.

    Would you care to gobble his hallucinogenic mushroom instead?

  22. Saturday 12 July 2008, 9:03 pm #Krypto

    way to ruin Champignon mushrooms there for me Bruce.

  23. Saturday 12 July 2008, 9:14 pm #Bruce

    I would have thought that enoki mushroom would have been closer.

  24. Saturday 12 July 2008, 9:17 pm #Krypto

    tinnea perhaps?

  25. Sunday 13 July 2008, 9:59 pm #Mikey

    Another non core comment - but one just for Grods.

    Fuck the potato…

    meanwhile that other Fleshlight, the Wodonga water tower is still getting a caning on the interwebs…from me.

    it’d be good if I actually provided the link really wouldn’t it?

    Who the metric fuck is Sir Donald Bradman?

  29. Monday 14 July 2008, 1:43 pm #magic bellybutton

    No one of any importance, Andy.

  30. Monday 14 July 2008, 2:59 pm #JT

    Don’t be silly. Of course, he should be taught in our schools.

    Didn’t you know that Bradman built the Sydney Harbour Bridge, sacked the Prime Minister and scored a double-century, all before Lunch on the first day of the eighth test in the 1932-33 Ashes series.

    Oh, that guy. He was gay, right?

  32. Tuesday 15 July 2008, 10:50 am #Ant Rogenous

    He batted for whichever side would polish his balls harder.

  33. Tuesday 15 July 2008, 2:00 pm #Krypto

    I heard he “bowled from the Paddington end” too.

  34. Tuesday 15 July 2008, 4:57 pm #Bridgit Gread

    Once on tour he cracked one through the covers but luckily one of this teammates got a hand on it.

  35. Tuesday 15 July 2008, 5:38 pm #Krypto

    did that make for a sticky wicket I wonder?
