The Announcement You’ve All Been Waiting For

12 09 2011

It’s been long coming. You’ve known about, perhaps without really knowing about it. But it’s been there, like a splinter in your mind. The knowledge that, someday, perhaps soon, the TBL team would be releasing another book. Well kids, that time is SOON!

The cast and crew at Things Bogans Like would like to introduce you to the world of:

BOGANOMICS: THE SCIENCE OF THINGS BOGANS LIKE

After spending decades in their dungeons painstakingly piecing together the almighty tome that was Things Bogans Like, a question struck the six of us. Why? After extensively cataloguing WHAT the bogan enjoys, the question of causality arose, and it was something we couldn’t answer easily. Thus, we spent hundreds of minutes hunched in front of the Underwood Five typewriters we bought with our max royalties from book one, and punched out the hastily conceived, shoddily constructed, downright HILARIOUS sequel, the cover of which you may or may not see before you.

“But where and when can I buy this almighty literary landmark?” I hear you asking.  Well, that would be on October 25th, 2011. In all good book stores. And several bad ones. We are considering a payment program based on creating a micropayment system that will charge readers on a per-word basis. This post will be $1.23, please.

In Other News…

Over the past few months, the TBL team has quite literally been scattered to the four winds, with members (whose locations we’re passingly aware of) presently in Austria, Ghana, and somewhere entertaining university students in a Parisian backpacker hostel. As for me, Chas, I’m heading off on a TBL research trip to Darwin for three weeks, the price one must pay to achieve verisimilitude.

Resultantly, there may be little to no activity on the blog for a little while, although efforts will be made to tweet the experience on Twitter with the Tweeting the kids are so fond of these days, so feel free to .

More importantly, BOGANOMICS, EVERYONE!

‘…entertaining university students in a Parisian backpacker hostel.’

Hmmm…never do this. I tried to do it in a Mexican backpacker hostel. Uni students kept on repeating the same thing…”I hope I’m still backpacking like you are at your age”. I was 34.

Damn you to hell, Ballarat uni students, I reckon I have outlived you all!

Hey Panda,

It was awesome. Europe is pretty cool and largely devoid of bogans, at least where we went. And no phones, emails, tv, interweb etc for 3 weeks was great.

Their hills are very high and very steep, one climb I did, Col de Angel was 50km of up to a height of 2750m, which is a long way on a pushie, bit very cool. Italians are great and the French have lightened up alot since 10 years ago, quite welcoming now. Hows life here?

As usual the whole country is being held to ransom by petty bitch fighting in parliment.

Juliar’s attempt to please the bogans by sending them to Malaysia backfired and now everyone hates her even more, especially bogans because News Ltd told them to hate her. Even Fairfax seems to hate her too I assume to get more bogans on their website. Now they all like Rudd again even though the reasons why News Ltd told the bogan to hate Julia and Labor will all stay in place and be the same.

I think it’s because Julia isn’t attractive and bogans wouldn’t want to give her anal, unlike the ex NSW Premier.

Rudd has probably never given anal so the bogan feels like it’s one up on him, Abbott, being very fit, would give pretty good anal and he’s Catholic so it would be more erotic because it’s forbidden for Catholics.

Can’t wait for the Boganomics book, TBL. *writes it under 25th October in student diary*

And welcome back, Simon. You missed … umm … apart from what Panda said … about three episodes of the Bogue & Boguette Show, including one episode guest written by everyone’s favourite Cronulla Sharks fan, Ash. I reckon he did a pretty good job. Click my user name above to check it out.

You missed my exciting misadventures with bogan rellos over the weekend just gone, you can read all about it in the previous thread on Low Interest Rates.

You also missed this Marxist blog called Left Flank accuse Things Bogans Like and people who mock bogans on Twitter of being a bunch of anti-working class bigots. (Never mind that many of us here, including me, are working class or come from working-class backgrounds.) I called them out on it, and got my backside chewed out in return by the far-left politically correct fun police. That was about three weeks ago now.

Yeah Simon, what do they do for fun? Probably sit around in a circle drinking mineral water and eating celery stalks while discussing the life and works of Leon Trotsky. And anybody who deviates from the official line is expelled from the mineral water-drinking circle and branded a “revisionist” or, even worse, a “fascist”.

Urban,
It is esential to have a social conscience and usually to have one you need to be left wing.
I have said on TBL before that Karl Marx said”From each according to his capacity and to each according to his need”
All of the worlds religions(Excluding the mad nutters) have the same philosophie known as” the Golden Rule” which christians say as “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you”
So even here there is a meeting point between left wing Marxist and right wing religious fundamental.
Go in peace

I think it’s essential to have left wing ideals but sometimes you could say the right wing would be best suited, like with overpopulation, and sometimes less government intervention is best like with house prices. Government intervention is a left wing thing but it has had right winged results in helping with house prices being too high.

Left and right is actually too simplistic and is a two dimensional paradigm. Some of you might remember this which I think gives you a more in depth answer to where you lie politically. I am centre left. If you can be arsed answering 6 pages worth of multiple choice questions you can find out for yourself. I might do it now because it’s been a while. It has left and right on the x axis and authoritarian and libertarian on the y axis when you get your result.

I’m somewhere near Nelson Mandela.

I’ve become somewhat more libertarian on social issues than the last time I took this quiz about three years ago (before, I was just below the x-axis), but my outlook on economic issues remains much the same.

I agree Martin, the left/right divide is far too simplistic to capture the true diversity in political opinions. Hell, this compass is probably too simplistic, being only two-dimensional. Perhaps what we need is a political Rubik’s cube travelling through the space/time continuum in the back of Doc Emmett’s De Lorean.

Much as expected, -0.25 left/right economic axis ( though I could swing to +/- 0.0 or +0.25) ,+0.36 on the authoritarian/libertarian social axis. I shot just high of the bull’s-eye. There were some decidedly leading questions, I noted.

Capital punishment began to make sense when the area commander of Serbian forces responsible for the incursion into the U.N. enclave at Srebrenica, Bosnia/Hercegovina was sentenced to 55 years imprisonment. This amounted to two and a half days for each of the deaths for which troops under his command were responsible, in that action.

Hahaha, a letter to the editor in today’s Sydney Morning Herald. I find it difficult to disagree, though I think the tone is a little too strident …

So who runs Australia? Is it Julia Gillard? No. Tony Abbott? No, much as he thinks otherwise.

Is it Kevin Rudd, or Malcolm Turnbull, or the unions, the miners or Big Business? No, it’s none of these.

Australia is now run by the flat-earth, know-nothing, believe-everything, paranoid, redneck ignoramus, whose overblown sense of self-entitlement dictates how loudly he or she will scream over any and every issue.

This is particularly true of issues that will never directly affect them, like boat people or gay marriage.

It doesn’t matter how wrong, illogical, insane, offensive, counterproductive or disturbing what they want is, our two political parties are at their beck and call, with shock jocks and the Murdoch press to encourage them.

Let’s just change our name from ”Australia” to ”Redneckistan”, elect a King Bogan and be done with it.

Proud to be an Australian? How?

Dunno…

Reckon ol’ Tone might fancy himself as a bit of a free-market libertarian… and therein lies the conundrum. I’ll admit I’m amateur hour when it comes to this bidness so correct me if I’m wrong, but as a federal politician, wouldn’t his profession virtually be made redundant in accordance to the capitalist libertarian doctrine?

Call in Yossarian, Mr Abbott, coz you gotz yawself a mean Catch-22.

And as for the humourlessness of the folks over at Left Flank, I reckon it’s pretty safe to say that extremists/fundamentalists in every corner – left, right, political, economic, religious – are a largely humourless bunch. Malcolm X even seemed to gain a sense of humour – along with a dozen bullets to the belly – after severing ties with the Nation of Islam. Well, he seemed to smile more anyway…

This might differ from place to place, but while the leftist extremists at my uni were merely irritating nitpickers, the rightists were farken scary – jizzing their pants over such humanitarians as Milton Friedman and Ayn Rand. Then y’had the tradies – some hardcore union boys, others Howard’s Battlers who sent crap, jingoistic emails…

Still, maybe the serious folk over at Left Flank should take in some corporate-owned media – Lachlan Murdoch’s Channel Ten’s Can of Worms, with Dicko, Jason Akermanis and Meshell Laurie – to find the answer to that ever-pertinent question, “Is it offensive to call someone a Bogan?”

Oh how bloody socialist they’d be, tuning in to that booshit…

In this country the tactic is to get people bleating “aw what’s the difference, they’re all the effin’ same.” and thus the natural progression is to “what’s in it for me?” and the swinging vote. I think a lot of people will support the right because they believe the Big Lie that one day they might be rich too. People who think this way don’t comprehend what “rich” actually is (and I don’t mean “in spirit”) and end up having their super raeped by a golden haired All American corporation who does.
These are also people who don’t think they are actually a “worker” because they have little coterie of minions and an Impressive Title and a BMW (with a 60% balloon) and a metallic coloured credit card and a two year backlog of annual leave. living the dream. Suckers.
My experience of teh Rural is that it is and always has been the very model of the “two speed economy”; farmers do comprehend what Rich is, but they’re playing it close to their chest and pretending they don’t and distracting us all with an endlesss stream of thin lipped nasal bleating about the weather, the markets, the lack of subsidies, the greens, the blacks, the reds while their golden haired All Australian boy is raeping your daughter at a rugby club B&S.

As for the roadworks … my understanding (from what people I’ve known who work on the roads have told me) is that the base rate of pay is nothing to write a postcard to Grandma about, I think a traffic controller gets about $23/hour base rate – but it’s the penalty rates, allowances, overtime, etc. that push earnings up.

#3218 – Other Peoples Kilograms

We all now know the bogan is not much given to self analysis or introspection. However they love to turn their analytical skills to other people, and the boguette particularly loves to study other people’s ability to gain and lose kilograms, via the medium of the femme trashmedia kraken.

Nurtured on a steady diet of donuts, snack bars and massive cans the bogan will willingly slot into it’s shopping trolley a copy of No Idea or Women Pay as it waddles through the checkout lane. As sure as the sun rises the cover will feature celebs relationship to kilograms or simply some other bogan who is so obsessed with kilograms they gather 200 of them to their body and then inexplicably lose 20 of them, a feat lauded by the kraken as almost superhuman.

The reining queen of Kilograms is Rickee Lee Coulter whose sole function is to gather and shed kilograms for the bogans entertainment, a role she took over from former Queen Oprah after Previous challenger Magda failed to take the crown by being unable to do a swimsuit shoot.

The male bogan views all this with skepticism as we know it’s obsession with Getting Huge. Witness it’s reaction to Warnies weightloss, “looks like a farkin, skinny pOOf hey Dwayno”. Plus sized models “lose some weight ya fat bitch” cop the opposite side to the duality that is the bogan. But rest assured, which ever direction other peoples kilograms are headed just don’t question the bogans relationship to kilograms unless you want to get glassed ya carnt.

Just quietly, Scarlett Johansson’s arse is good for, like, just about anything. Top-shelf cuisine, dat. What a porcelain peach it is. And anyone who wants to accuse me of being a lowbrow, guttersucking misogynist, I got that ‘leaked photo’ news from those fine pro-feminist luminaries at Fairfax. Absolute train wreck, that website. In other consequential news, Brendan Fevola’s wife has given up alcohol. Strange. I’d be hittin’ the turps purty hard if I’d spawned his children.

I would most women, well most physically attractive women, but no, assuming I didn’t have to put any work in. But I genuinely dislike her enough to give me a soft on. I remember seeing her on Hey Hey making some cheap shots about people in general.

As for Scarlett, yes she’s top shelf alright, although personally I’d rather eat Amanda Seyfried’s butt and her titties are as good as if not better than Scarlett. Hard to tell though because Scarlett’s booby snap was from a bad angle. Scarlett is also a bit of a dork and she doesn’t play it enough to make it endearing. So I win.

I worked with a bloke who bit an ear off. He was walking his staffy/pitbull/penis extension. Other bloke walking his staffy/pitbull/penis extension suggested that workmate put his dog on a leash because workmate’s penis extension was being aggressive to the other penis extension.

A fight ensued where an ear was bitten off. Cost workmate a few grand. The dogs sniffed each others arse and fell asleep.

hey JH, you know how i have referred to myself as being a bogan in my past? Well, I will relate this story now only because I’m rather drunk.

Early on in my new workplace I met Earbiter. He did the wrong thing on the job and I told him so. The whole workforce disappeared. They thought it was on. He carried on so I told him again. Apparently folk were already ringing the ambulance to carry me off. Old sour bloke I was working with thought it was the most entertaining day of his life. He hated Earbiter.

Earbiter walked off and told all and sundry that Mick was mad and needed sedating. I had a lot of peaceful years because of that day.

Andy (Cox?) wrote for People when Geoff Seddon was editor. Or was that the Picture magazine? Anyway, Seddo was awesome. Very clever man,and funny too. Wonder what he does now? A pillar of the australian bogan magazine industry and genuine fan of the Cobby Motorcycle. I guess he got fat and old and bought a car like the rest of us.
and I hope Andy Cox paid off his mortgage too. what’s he up to? another finely tuned funny bone. last heard of doing funny bits on the radio in the afternoon. for some reason that makes me think of Damien Lovelock. wasn’t he doing Soccer (lol) on SBS? I last saw the Cellies with the Grinners at their first show after being unearthed. And speaking of old buggers rocking out, we see Frenzal Rhomb are still producing. Gee, I recon Damien Lovelock, Andy Cox, Phil Jameson and Jay Walley could team up. A band of four guitarists. They could call it Four Guitarists and have Janet English on bass. Genius.
but back to your original point; I sincerely doubt bogans have even heard of the fauves. and when they do hear of them, they will mispronounce the name before deriding their stylish sounds and deciding the song in question is about police informants (our bogan is hyper-hip to the criminal argot after 26 seasons of underbelly) and bellowing that he would glass the f4660t caarnt.

And Simon, the answer is IQ. Barely. Thought I’d watch the game at my local Old Man’s Pub in Magpie heartland. Five taps. All Carlton Draught. Dig it. But had to leave at quarter time after they’d already spouted every footy cliche in the book:

“Faarken, get me out there!! I could’ve faarken kicked that with me faarken eyes closed!!”, “Faarken, sack the lot of ’em!!”, and, of course, their customary payout on two-time All Australian, Leon Davis.

Pretty slow on the uptake too. For a bunch of crusty old buggers who looked like they’d spent the past half century watching Aussie Rules, they didn’t seem to know too much about the game…

Decided to hit the trendier pub down the street. No luck there either. Being in the same room as young Hawks fans in shorts and pastel t-shirts who clap with polite synchronicity at the TV ain’t my cup o’ tea either…

Where’s the happy medium?!

After a few more pubs I was back home, half cut, sliding around in woolen socks, swearing loudly at the TV as I took in that ball-tearing final term. Hello, happy medium.

So , there I was in the waiting room, waiting for the healtcare professionals to sort their leeches into appropriate ailment groups and sizes. Young bogan in the corner had his music thing going. At full volume. I could hear the doof doof through the ear piece from across the room. Not in the mood today, so I politely asked him to turn it down. He stares at me. So I tell him I don’t need to hear it and thank him in advance for lowering the volume.

He couldn’t believe it. How DARE someone speak to him like that. I was waiting for a spray but to my surprise he did it. Glaring at me, he took the earpiece out and turned his music off. Not down, off. He couldn’t or wouldn’t listen at a softer level. WTF?

They now have a drive-thru coffee shop. Outstanding. The bogan just cannot suffer the indignity of leaving its capsule to walk more than 10 metres.

I used to share a house with an OSB. Fantastic bloke but the laziest man i ever met. Anyhow, we would be out and decide to grab coffee. The rest of us would walk in and order. Mate would sit in the car. We would come back and he would then tell us he wants one too and would make us go through the Maccas drive-thru for his. True. He never saw the need for walking.

I’ve previously ranted about the bovine mentality on ‘scalators. I like pushing past them coz they are usually standing two abreast and it really pisses them off. Bit like those moving floors at big airports. Ya just been sitting for 12 hrs and these lazy carnts then stand on the moving floor instead of walking a couple of hundred metres, astounding.

Simon,
Except Heathrow. Bloody miles of walking and not a single miserable travelator for those that need it. Not even in the new terminal. Must have been designed by Ryanair and Easyjet
FGS Sydney and Melbourne have had Travellators for ever and even the Domain Parking station in Sydney had one in the early sisties up to St James station.
No wonder the Poms want out.

I love that one in the Domain Parking Station. It feels like you’re in some 80s dystopian movie because it’s such a long tunnel. I might go and park there one time just to use it again.

I hate people that stand two abreast on footpaths, and when you’re on coming the one on their right refuses to tuck in to the left, it’s usually young couples where the guy feels as though he has to be “the man”. I think I’ll dedicated another day to running in to these people.

Considered dedicating an entire day to that too, martin. But never end up going through with it. Yup. More submissive than an one of those Keiran-reading Islams when it comes to pedestrian etiquette. Tremendous blow to the manhood if yer hanging with yer lady and some just-gotten-huge dude muscles you off the footpath with that just-left-the-gym smugness…

Anyhow, these memories are all saved in the homicide bank for when I crack, Anders Breivik style…

And, ladies and gentleman, glassers one and all, I am pleased to present to you the latest episode of …

THE BOGUE & BOGUETTE SHOW!!!

Yes, I know it is very late in the evening (12:17am) but the last two episodes have actually been early, and I’ve had 125% worth of assessment due in the last seven days – so I’m sure you’ll all forgive me. :P

And this week – we say farewell to Uncle Ryan!

Excellent urban. Been watching me, have you? A bit close to home, this one.

Because of my age, I used to date a lot of women with kids. You’re all aware of my limitations with the written word, but with numbers I am a whiz. I understand numbers. They jump out at me. With the number awareness thing I can help kids. One young bloke in particular I remember had no hope of getting anywhere until I showed him the old way of doing simple maths. He’s doing orright now. F#cking bogans. They destroy their children’s lives before it has even started. That is the worse crime of all. Kids like smart people. Kids want to learn. The kids didn’t care that I was odd. I helped them. That’s all they want. Great word that, odd.

Kids never want you to leave if they think you’re for them. Now I’m feeling sad for Boguette.

I suspect that I have been stereotypified. I haven’t been in any fights for at least three months.

Although I do need a bogan assessment.

Last night I went with a few friends (one male, two female) to go see Nirvana: Live at the Paramount at Westfield Miranda. We arrived early and didn’t have much to do for about an hour, when the other dude (the biggest bogan of the bunch) suggested a walk to the nearby bottl-o.

Once we bought our alcohol, we realised we didn’t have anywhere to drink it – so, even though I thought it was extremely bogan, we ended up sitting in a bus stop drinking vodka. Our poison of choice was old mate’s reasoning as to why we weren’t being that bogan – we’d have to be necking Woodies or goon to be truly bogan.

What do y’all think?

When we were at the pub my friends used to buy their grog at the bottle shop and bring it into the pub to drink to save money. Or when we played golf they’d bring a bong to smoke some cones in between holes. Or when we’d go and get a case they literally could not wait until we got back to someone’s place before getting stuck in so they’d start drinking in the car. We never got into any fights though because we were pussies. Although me and my mate nearly got attacked by this big maori because we pissed on his house. And I had another friend who was good at getting into fights but he was always in the wrong so I, and no one else wanted to support him.

Yeah Ash drinking in public is definitely bogan, unless it was congnac in those poncy glasses.

I fought a half Maori half Slav twice when I was a kid. I did ok, there was no clear winner. But when you get older and they weigh about 150kg and don’t really have much to live for it’s a bit unfair I think. Even if you had fighting skillz like Mick you’d need to land quite a few punches to the head before they were knocked out I reckon.

I’ve filled out a bit now in my old age, I’m 6 foot and about 100kg ( and I’m not afraid of a walk, so f#ck you Simon ), they fill out even more and I’m still a weed compared to them!

I remember years ago I was at the Steyne at Manly and these two idiot bogans, only about 5 foot something and not built too heavily took on the bouncers there. I remember the bouncers holding their heads down and kneeing them in the head. It was kind of funny because they looked like they deserved it. The bogans just looked like your standard drink too much, smoke too much, not too bright, blonde haired skanks so it was funny that they should be so deluded that they could have tried to take on the 150kg islander types.

I’m about 80 kg right now but that’s 10 over what I really should be. Putting on weight isn’t an issue, it’s putting on the right kind of weight. When I was still a junior footballer with potential I even did some work with the Sharks’ strength and conditioning coach before he pretty much concluded I was a lost cause in that department and would have to learn to take a pounding (which I can do).

Anyway, just got back from Hollywood Undead down at the Metro. Weird mix of bogans and scene kids. I only went cause my (bogan) mates were going but it was fun nonetheless. Not life-changing by any means but a nice party atmosphere. Something you don’t often get with a heavily bogan crowd.

I don’t put on muscle really. My trip to the Alps almost gave me calves, almost. Still it has it’s advantages, I don’t pork up as easily as some either.

26 09 2011
James Hunter

Simon,
One thing that helps put on muscle and also helps with recovery from injury,operations or whateever is Protein with ALL the esential amino acids as we cannot metabolise quite a few of them ourselves.
If you Google “Australian Sports Nutrition” They have a range of “Whey Protein Isolates” which have the perfect ballance of all the amino acids, zero carbohydrates and come in flavours.
Personally I recoment the Muashi or the Scivation brands.
They do mail order if you cant get to a store but they are way cheaper then buying the same products from your local pharmacist,health food store or gym.

Heaps of other great products and NO I dont work for them !

26 09 2011
Simon - Glasser at Arms, Constant source of Randomness

Cheers JH,
I know a bit about that. Discovered I am Hypoglycemic (amoungst other things) a while ago and know have a pretty high protein diet, use a whey protein recovery drink after long rides etc. No dice on the muscle though. That’s just me. I’m stronger than most, you just can’t tell from looking at me

26 09 2011
James Hunter

Simon, I am Immune Defficient, Diabetic,Polycythemic,and Thyroid deficient a nice little cluster of problems because I chose the wrong parents !
I must say that the Whey Protein Isolate makes a realy substantial differance to the way I feel on a day to day basis.
My neice who is a professional sports nutritionist/personal trainer put me on to it and now the doctors at The John Hunter are recommending it !
So There hads to be something in it.

27 09 2011
Simon - Glasser at Arms, Constant source of Randomness

Yeh, it is certainly good for recovery and also for pre ride energy. But shoving it down my throat in the hope of looking like Arnie ain’t going to happen!! Our bodies are all good for different things and I’m more endurance, putting out power for longer than say a muscle builder or sprinter. I’m happy with that.

Your’s is an impressive list JH but if you know what’s wrong you can work with it so that’s good.

27 09 2011

Simon,
Yeh only thing pisses me a bit sometimes is it took doctors 55 years to figure out what was wrong ! Still they didnt know much back then either. Some of em still dont!
I am , sorry was more endurance my self. 7 days walking through the rain forest carrying 110lb of kit. Lots of that was water . Had to walk on the ridges where there was not any vegetation. all the natural water is down below. bugger.
Typically from a place called Point Lookout near Ebour NSW on the edge of the escarpment at 5250 feet and down to Telegrap Point or Bellingen.
For short weekend shit. down the gorges round Hillgrove.
, Wollomumbi
Gara, Dangersleigh.
Fantastic country.
Looking bown into the gorges these days I realy wonder at our sanity for what we did with out ropes or any saftey gear.

And, another great letter to the editor in today’s Sydney Morning Herald … it’s part of a discussion over the most appropriate thing the Wallabies can do in response to the All Blacks’ haka.

A pre-match performance by the Wallabies should reflect our traditions. I’m envisioning a line of Wallabies, all clutching broken beer bottles, necks straining and eyes bulging, screaming ”Are you looking at me?”

not all rugby folk like butt burrowing, in fact it should be ottmco that it is only second row forwards who go the burrow. one might make a case for the lock being fascinated with pushing people to the burrow, but clearly every one else is more interested in falling on people, being fallen on, rucking, gouging, bag snatching, biting, running away, lying still and moaning and kicking the ball over the sideline.
In fact, it frequently appears to this commenteer that it is most often the AFL crowd who are most prone to highlighting the homo-erotic aspects of the scrum…

Beachside suburbs are full of bogan-haters and bogan-baiters and everybody knows these people have an enormous sense of entitlement. They expect everyone else to give way to them.

They are the same people who double park their posh cars outside of boutique grocers while they just run in for some himalayan salt that costs $125 a kilo.

It’s not a gender thing, It’s just that there are slightly more women than men out walking and, compared to men, women are much more likely to walk with others walk (it shows up in surveys).

But if they are walking with their backs to oncoming traffic, then that can’t be put down to gender or bogan-hating, that can only be put down to low IQ.

I really regret writing this. It is mean spirited and bigoted. There isn’t any such thing as a bogan-hater or bogan-baiter any more than there’s such thing as a bogan.

And even if there were, its bigoted to say nasty things, accusing them of a sense of entitlement and smirking about Himalayan salt.

I don’t like judging and mocking other people under an assumption that I am somehow better than them. This site seems to be dedicated to judging and mocking so-called ‘bogans’ out of a sense of superiority. But all I have ended up doing just now is to judge and mock so-called ‘bogan-haters’ and ‘bogan-baiters’ out of an equally repellent sense of superiority.

I regret I got caught up in it. I retract what I said. It’s small minded and intellectually lazy.

Bloody joke. Bloody disgrace. Go Pies.

Seriously though, if you’re such a dominant, opinionated figure in the national media you’re bound to end up with a hard-boiled legislative egg on yer face at some time. Have a warm drink and move on Bolta. That’d be the mature thing to do. Go on mate, have a sip. It’s a flat white…
