Whacking Archive 5 August 2003 Joining the four-wheeled world Yes, I'm crossing to the dark side: I've decided to finally get my car licence (which - being a motorcycle rider & buyer - I never bothered to do before) and actually purchase a car, hopefully before Xmas this year. The "limitations" of bikes never bothered me before, but I find myself getting into more and more circumstances where I need to give someone a lift, go places in appalling weather, or carry large quantities of "stuff". And frankly, riding in traffic for a few years gives you a collective attack of the heebie-jeebies. The car will be strictly utilitarian. Compact and not expensive. Hey, I'd love something fast and sporty, but I can't afford to do that and keep my sportsbike. And it's a cold, hard fact that when it comes to bang-for-bucks, bikes shit on cars from a great height. So, I'll keep my bike for performance thrills. For my car, I want something easy to park, not expensive, and not completely ugly. Oh yeah, it's gotta be an auto, coz I'm a lazy shit. So far, the field seems to be: The Toyota Echo: The Daihatsu Sirion: The Honda Jazz GLI: The Holden Barina SXi: Any suggestions/advice?
Our PM made a complete fuckwit out of himself today.
I'll leave the response to James Russell:
James' mention of Howard "following Dubya's lead" is a load of balls though. Let's not confuse the issue with "we're becoming the 51st state" rubbish. Howard's always been a pro-statist social conservative. This
is just good old fear-of-fags bollocks. And all the carping in the world
about political correctness and disrupting sacred institutions
can't hide the simple, ugly stench of homophobia.
Is Monbiot's latest column the most tortured use of the Garden-of-Eden metaphor ever to appear in print? I mean, just what the fuck is this wanker talking about?
From
what I can decipher (in between migrane attacks) it seems to be a contorted
amalgam of his standard template essays The West Is Evil, Israelis
have Big Noses, Capitalism is Bad and Black People Are Never
To Blame For Anything. Dim-bulb Niall Cook mounts this supremely idiotic defence of the ABC:
Niall thinks all us ABC critics should shut up and just stop watching, coz - you know - we have a "choice". Of course, we don't have the choice to not pay for the ABC. You can be sure Niall doesn't support that kind of choice.
Well, no it wouldn't. It's a taxpayer-funded network: it gets money whether people are watching or not. It is immune to the pressures of ratings, advertising revenue, audience interest and pretty much any of the mechanisms which would send a "message".
Fine. I'll make you a deal: stop making me pay for it, and I'll stop whinging about it. If the ABC is of such immense value to so many in this country, then let them fund it by subscription. I don't
expect Niall or other ABC-lovers to accept this deal, do you?
From the latest Green Left Weekly: - The "Palestinian Education Department" has released a report showing the destruction those evil jews have wrought on Palestinian education. Hmmm, would that be the same Palestinian Education Department that gave us these fabulous educational materials?.....

Penny showing
why he's the world's most consistently interesting
solo-blogger. Thanks
to Oxblog for pointing out this. I never thought much of Spanish GP rider Sete Gibernau. I regarded him as an occasionally talented but ultimately inconsequential rider who was in the series thanks to his oodles of Spanish sponsorship money. His previous seasons riding factory bikes for Honda and Suzuki showed flashes of brilliance, but was often a fella fighting for 6th & 7th place. Now look at him: the guy has won four GPs this year, one more than God-guy world champ Valentino Rossi, who has proven remarkably vulnerable to Sete's aggression in the closing stages of races. Rossi looked noticeably rattled after last weeks GP in Germany. Will
Sete win the title this year? No. Valentino will hit back, and is vastly
more consistent than Sete. But the Spaniard's rise to A-level rider has
stunned everyone and added a real sparkle to this year's title race.

A hi-fi
blog. Steve Dawson mixes home
theatre with political
essays in one of the more interesting blogsites around. Check out
his alternative
take on The Untouchables.
Thanks
to Yobbo for the heads-up
on this: the mind-numbingly awful website
of the North Korean government. Contact
with aliens, from the aliens'
point of view. Very, very funny. Cheers to citizen Limbo for the link.
This
is either sad or very funny, depending on your point of view. Again, thanks
to Zoop for linkage. 30 July 2003 This blogger has copied Fritz Pettyjohn's "Conservatives And Liberals" essay from this site and pasted it as his own work. Hey Gold
Dog guy: give credit when you use other people's words. Came back this morning from a kick-ass holiday in South Australia and Melbourne, showing off my home country to visiting blogger Sasha Castel. Even the crap weather couldn't spoil it. Spent a few days in Adelaide, taking time out for a great day tour of the Barossa Valley wineries with our excellent guide Werner Gattermayr. Tasted some truly awesome grape product, consumed a fantastic produce platter lunch, and enjoyed the glorious scenery. While in Adelaide, we spent a lot of time hanging out with the very entertaining Buffy-hating scrote Scott Wickstein, who got food poisoning after eating a dodgy falafel. Also met up with reader Gazza Gravett, who purchased food and booze for us all, which is a sure way to get in my good books. Then onto Melbourne, where we basically walked around the city, ate, and drank for a few days. Last night we had a booze-n-food blog meet at the Duke of Kent pub, attended by yours truly, Sasha, Tony The Teacher, Tom Paine and Aggers Anderson. Sasha
has posted a bunch of stuff about our Sydney, South Oz and Melbourne adventures.
Go read it.
The line
between liberty and stupidity has
been blurred once again. Thanks to Zoop for the link. It seems the EuroWussies are handing over their milk money to the world's most fashionable mass murderer:
Yeah, Fidel's boys are running desperately low on supplies of Caviar and Scotch Whisky for party meetings.
Wow. Castro must really be quaking in his boots eh? Who needs American-style military action when you can do this? The European
Union: the spiritual heir to Neville Chamberlain. 23 July 2003 Going away (again) Yes, I will make my beloved readers suffer yet again: this will be my last update until the 30th of July. I'm off to Adelaide and Melbourne, doing lots of tourist things and getting drunk. No way I'll have any time to update this page until I get back. In Adelaide, I'll be catching up with Scott Wickstein, and hopefully Bruce Hill and Angry Anderson while in Melbourne After this, I won't be having any more holidays for a while, so Whacking Day will return properly once and for all. See you next week. Have fun out there kids. 22 July 2003 Trippin' Well, Sydney was serious fun, aside from some crappy weather. Went and did the tourist stuff with NYC blogger Sasha Castel who's out here doing the sightseeing thing. She has a full report on her site. One thing to note: I walked past Andrew Denton on the walk from Bondi Junction into the city.
The aus.motorcycles crowd are recommending Noam Chomsky now. Guess there's a lot of Pol Pot fans in the two-wheeled community.
This is amusing. Thanks to Nick for the link.
Gaz does a lovely shredding of one of Labor's most wretched slimebuckets, who is still writing crap about the war she still can't believe we won. Well, at least she's writing crap articles nowdays instead of getting people killed. That's ethical progress for you. (Does anyone else remember when this bimbo was being touted as our first female PM?)
Now the Green Left Weekly is praising the noble government of North Korea. As expected, they're blaming that country's problems on the USA.
Behold the psychopathology of the left.
It took them longer than expected, but Australia's psycho-lefties are on to our new Head of State. 18 July 2003 Updates I've been absent this week due to intensive work and social commitments. Thankfully, I have now just begun two weeks holiday. I'm off to Sydney tomorrow for a blogger bash and general tourist activities. Posting will be non-existent until Monday when I return.
Is there anybody left who cares? How long is it since Nutscrape actually had a decent browser?
Another one of those appallingly addictive sites you can waste hours on..... Thanks to Carol B. for the link. 12 July 2003 Lazybones I haven't been posting as much in the last week thanks to work commitments, house cleaning and unexpected social gatherings. Normal service should resume shortly.
A very moving post by James Russell.
There's a spectacular idiot on USENET called "Uncle Bully" (the genius who once claimed that the French have a proud military history. Mwahahaha) who posts constantly about how Americans are weak, stupid cowards. Here's his latest brilliant effort:

Hey, Richard Neville is back with another essay. And as usual, he takes a billion words to say what anyone else could cover in one paragraph. Only this time I'm not even sure Richard knows what his point is. It's a steaming sick-baggie of upchucked mutterings about ice cream, how modern life sucks, John Howard and capitalism is evil, poverty is bad, censorship is naughty, and Che Guevara is wonderful. Check out some of these wonderfully coherent snippets:
Uh. What was the question again?
No. I have a question though: do you write this stuff with your colon or what?
..uh...
We do? I think somebody's up to his eyeballs in chemical refreshment.
Ah, those bloody evil capitalist tourists, shoving employment and money down the throats of the noble savages. Better they starve I guess.
You'll notice that Neville isn't objecting to being paid for this experience.
Aww,
those brave, noble authentic Cubans: not afraid to meet the challenges
of life head-on. Repression, torture, totalitarianism, cultural stagnation,
censorship, extermination of homosexuals. Ahhh, as a good lefty, it just
makes you all misty for the good old days of Mao, Stalin and Pol Pot. Would somebody please buy me this motorcycle............. The powerful, smooth handling and utterly delicious Italian v-twin superbike. It's a Ducati 999 without the pricetag, ugly-as-fuck styling or legions of irritating fans. I'd never
spend my own money on it (Italian bikes fall apart quicker than the French
infantry), but oh, to be rich! Great
post by Tom Paine. Featuring one of the best closing lines ever. Scott
Wickstein doesn't
like Labor party loudmouth wimp Mark Latham either. Kim
Du Toit is saying naughty, non-PC things again.
You simply can't afford to miss this exciting event! (Thanks
to Steve in Cali for the link.) 8 July 2003 Horowitz whacks Coulter too Even right-wing warrior David Horowitz thinks Ann Coulter is full of shit. Hopefully the rightwing-o-sphere's infatuation with this dingbat will be over soon.
Thanks to DC Jensen for bringing my attention to this lovely pet story.
7 July 2003 Sullivan whacks Coulter Sully does a lovely takedown of airhead attack-dog bimbo Ann Coulter.
Fuck-all else to blog about tonight. Back tomorrow. Looking for older whackings? Wanna see my previous rants against lefty, commie, peacenick wankers, plus lots of fun stuff about motorcycles, music and movies?................ Click here for the full past whackings index |
