    You should apply for Parliamentary superannuation. What's the worst that could happen?

    Attempted fraud charges?

    Big cheer for Henry, the one hundred and eleven year old Tuatara. He's a Dad

    Ay, congrats.
    But did you know that the Tuatars has no penis?

    Males do not have a penis; they reproduce by the male lifting the tail of the female and placing his vent over hers. The sperm is then transferred into the female, much like the mating process in birds.,

    ref
    and

    Prior to the adoption of the Latin word in English the penis was referred to as a "yard". The Oxford English Dictionary cites an example of the word yard used in this sense from 1379,[1] and notes that in his Physical Dictionary of 1684, Steven Blankaart defined the word penis as "the Yard, made up of two nervous Bodies, the Channel, Nut, Skin, and Fore-skin, etc

    ref
    So. erm. ah.
    I forgot what I was saying.

    Any car driver who tosses bottles out onto the road is
    a)a hoon

    -all other labels (irresponsible idiot, munter, shitforbrains, fuckwit)
    are covered therein-

    I used to have a mate that would toss empty beer cans over the roof of the car from the drivers seat as he meandered to or from anywhere he happened to be.
    I anybody and I mean anybody, who dared to attempt to chastise him for this behaviour he would berate them for denying small furry animals the right to a modern home.

  • Obamania, For Real,

    Unless Faux News goes away, I'd say he has a job for life..

    True. I meant to post on this earlier but.....
    Did anyone else do a comparison of the reporting on the inauguration between Fox and CNN? Astounding but entirely unsurprising. If that is possible. CNN was, almost like watching the second coming while on Fox it was the end of days.

    <am-psych>To be ridiculed for wearing race lycra in traffic is to be reinforced in your self-perception as a serious cyclist, because non-cyclists just don't get it and never will.</am-psych>

    Oooh, I like that. You could apply it to, almost, any minority taste/fashion. Yes, I dress like a zombie from a Micheal Jackson video but you don't understand because you're just not cool.

  • Speaker: Copyright Must Change,

    Copyright enforcement is a single animal.

    is one way of looking at it,
    or perhaps it is a whole animal kingdom representing many different
    families (painting, music, film, writing etc) and genus, (styles), representing individuals producing multiple works.

    Dinosaurs?
