  • OnPoint: Other People's Wars,

    but nobody feels like challenging the government on misleading the public. Except Nicky Hager.

    And me. Everytime some shit goes down, and some polly or lackey reporter trots out the "oh the SAS is there in a purely mentoring role" bs and my "I'm being lied to" radar starts screaming...

  • Hard News: Still sounds good,

    I also dig 'Dialling A Prayer' oh-so-super-much more than 'She Speeds' -- probably due to the order I discovered them in, but the latter is of course also a classic.

  • Speaker: KICK IT! End of Act One,

    Suarez, in my mind, embodies everything I hate about football.

    Word.

    I'm glad it's just not me.

    There were enough expletives flying around at the antics of the little coach's son Weiss in the NZL v Slovakia match. The Suarez thing caused me heart-stopping apoplexy.

    Sam F

    You have to admit it would make sense given the strong Vandal influence in the rest of the CBD

    for the WIN.

    C'mon you guys, shuddup... Litterick's playing you. Right? No one could be that stupid, could they?

  • Field Theory: A post about art (sort of),

    This entire debate is IMO stupid, and what's worse, it was triggered by philipmatthews quoting Andrew Paul Wood, and ignoring the real issue

    unimaginative pseudo-Fascist tat

    which is that the proposed work is unquestionably precisely that ("unimaginative pseudo-Fascist tat" I mean) and utterly horrid.

    I don't care who works at Weta and who thinks they're artists or not; the one that they made of the little girl reading is awful, and this rugby bollocks is a wretched disgrace*.

    Surely we can agree on that?

    *not least because, as has been noted by more than one other, it closely resembles a woman's genitals: a vulva, with labia, clitorus, introitus, some hair, and even the hint of an anus.

  • Hard News: The Press, Privacy and The Paps,

    You know how in the (Stateside ones in particular) gossip mags, much of the more 'speculative' material that purports to be gossip is in fact nothing like that, but rather carefully-orchestrated and scripted publicity exercises by "celebrities" and their PR/agents/so-on designed to get the "talent's" name in the public mind as a publicity tie-in to a new movie, a book, an award show, whatever...

    Anyone have any idea how much of the local stuff is like that?

  • Field Theory: And like that, it's gone,

    Huh. I thought The Crowd Goes Wild on Ice was fine. It's usually the only (free-to-air) sports show/news/whatever I can watch.
