Putting beetroot in her burger?

Was that my bald head?

Worse.
- Comment on With the Social Media Ban coming in next month what's the plan? 4 weeks ago:
Thanks. The only one of those I currently use is YouTube, and all they have to do to verify my age there is to look at the age of my account. Hopefully that’ll be enough. Otherwise, they can accept my anonymised digital driver’s licence.
- Comment on Julia Gillard endorses Donald Trump 1 month ago:
Australians are not a serious people.
I disagree. We take humour very seriously. :)
I say leave the satire tag off. I was looking askance at it until I read that second sentence which made it pretty obvious even without the Chaser link. If any non-Aussies don’t know the history between Gillard and Rudd, they’re free to look it up. And people eating the onion is always funny.

Republicans really can’t just mind their own fucking business, can they?

Trolling Trump would be pretty funny. It’ll never happen though.
- Comment on Dibber dobber Donny: Trump tattletales on TV reporter 2 months ago:
Oh I definitely think he’s been a net positive, and significantly better than the alternative. I just don’t think he’ll have the guts to call out Trump’s bullshit to his face.
The social media laws are appalling, though. You’d expect that nonsense from the likes of Dutton, but I guess all governments are pro-surveillance state when you get down to it.

I love how unelectable she’s making herself.

I’m sure Albanese will be as milquetoast and ineffective as he usually is.
- Comment on ABS decision to reuse biased, coercive Census religion question puts human rights in the spotlight 3 months ago:
Regrettably, the ABS backed down following a media campaign by the Catholic hierarchy — who wanted to keep the question as it was, to ensure comparable data with past Censuses — and following the Albanese Government’s intervention on the Census design just days out from the large-scale test.
I do wonder what the problem is when there’s a ‘No religion’ option, though.
- Comment on Big Balls Clapped 3 months ago:
The worst thing about this guy getting beaten up was that it had nothing to do with his actions at DOGE. It was just some random muggers.

I daresay it was a book sold in America for ‘English Pronunciation’, or something, but it definitely spells out an American accent, which is understandable. Not sure why the person in the post feels so called out by it, other than ignorance of one’s own accent.
I always kind of enjoy reading spelled out accents as a literary exercise. Pratchett was great at it with the Mac Nac Feegle, for e.g., and wasn’t that James Joyce’s whole thing?
- Comment on Ah minthi spikchur anadón likit 3 months ago:
That’s easy for you to say.
- Comment on Ah minthi spikchur anadón likit 3 months ago:
I like to troll Americans occasionally by calling American English ‘English (simplified)’.

Neffinal Jabra would be a good stage name for a standup comedian.

From what I can tell, it continues to exist, but you can no longer post.

When my kids were young, we got a copy of this book, which came with a coffee cup emblazoned with ‘He’s alright my Dad’. It was one of my most prized possessions, and I was heartbroken when I dropped it and broke it.
