  • dc_red,

    1. ...it would have 30 regular listeners?

    2. The bottle. Provided you don't live in Auckland.

    3. Just like the guardians of Gondor. Key on one side of a previously unspoiled south-westland river. Muzza on the other.

    4. b ... I assume.

    5. Will the NZH notice, and launch an over-wrought campaign?

    6. See 5.

  • David Slack,

    The actual answer to 4 was a, b and c, but as you can see, it's now a different question, and the old number 5 is gone. My apologies for completing the revisions in public. Here, have a chocolate fish. It's sprinkled with unobtanium.

    4. What does our Prime Minister mean when he says: ''I'm going to Maui, where are you going?''

    It's spelt "Mau", and I assume you're selling pictures.

  • Raymond A Francis,

    Typical of the lefties, changes the rules and questions half way through my answering
    But
    1 More crazies emailing

    2 Lets get a crate

    3” Nothing more to see here, move on”.

    4 Same as "I off to skiing, don't contact me if there is an
    earthwakes"

    5 Don't we have an opposition?

  • Robyn Gallagher,

    1. ...Whale Oil would accuse it of being the mouthpiece of the liberal elite.
    2. This is a trick question!!! Everyone knows the only currency accepted at Showgirls is Showgirls Dollars. I hear the exchange rate is pretty bad at the moment, though.
    3. It will be like one of those old bronze statues where it doesn't tarnish in the places where tourists rub it for luck. Therefore, it will be completely green.
    4. Remember that time in the '90s when there was talk of renaming the North and South Islands with Maori names and Shipley suggested calling the North Island "Maui"? Well, that was adopted within the National Party. Key's holiday apartment in Maui is actually a timeshare in Tauranga.
    5. Your mum.

    5. Your mum.

    You mean "yo mama"?

  • David Hood,

    1) John Key would be optimistic for its future.
    2 )That depends how optimistic you are.
    3) A novelty desk ornament
    4) A similar thing to the TV ad that asks if you have been Fiji'd recently
    5) Pay attention to the swinging watch. You are getting sleepy. When you wake up you will have no memory of last weeks legislation.

    The answer to number 2 is the bottle.
    Showgirls is the answer to all other questions.

    Don't you mean;

    Q. How many politicians would it take to fill a bath tub with multi-coloured machine tools?

    A. A chocolate fish.

    Mauhauhauhau! Pictures, exclusively, @7.

  • nz native,

    1: Our ears would bleed and flies would be attracted to the radio.

    2: The lap dancers loins make it impossible for you to access your card but your not worried as Rodney said he'd put it all on his .

    3: A-hole

    4: Its code for wife and partner swapping, although rumors that r.i.p rockerfella is the biological father of Keys children is nothing but a dirty left wing smear.

    5: Fay still has a couple of private islands where the riff raff can't bother you ............. myers will supply the free booze, however you need a title to get on there with 'right honarable' being the bare minimum.

  • mic weevil,

    1. even if you weren't tuned into national radio the airwaves would leave a slimy, greasy and slightly acrid coating over everything they touched

  • Amy Gale,

    1. Is this one of those liberal elite ivory tower questions about the sound of one blog clapping?

    2. Glass. Bottle price may be over the audit threshold.

    3. The subject of a previous, unsold statue.

    4. "Eff off povo". Too easy.

    5. You can't catch me out that easily.

  • recordari,

    Oh, sorry, were they serious questions?

    1. Kwiblog who?

    2. Either. Some guy said 'the drinks are on the house'.

    3. Knock knock. 'Stat you bro?' No, it's Dr Pita Sharples, actually.

    4. What Amy said.

    5. Winston Peters.

  • Rich of Observationz,

    I'm not sure. Would that be deleted unobtainium?

  • Helen Searancke,

    1) ...I'd sell it, too.

    2) The bottle. But only if I can claim it against some rent I pay to my family trust or something.

    3) A pile of rubble.

    4) "I don't want to go to Copenhagen." [My edit - I just reread the question. Duh.]

    5) Surprisingly, Paula's place, out west - always good for a beer and a laugh and she makes a bloody awesome fish pie. West is best, after all.

  • Emma Hart,

    1/ It'd cause much the same reaction from me as this week's Listener cover did, except I'm not sure how you rip the cover off RNZ. Fortunately, it seems people are planning to show me.

    2/ "Don't you know who I am?!" Ah, feck I love doing that.

    3/ It would glisten with the tears of ophaned baby kiwi.

    4/ He means he's going to Maui, and if anyone else is going his way he'd appreciate a ride. Give the man a break, he needs to keep popping off and topping up his supply of "relaxed".

    5/ Pauline Hansen is dropping by for a holiday before joining the BNP, apparently.

    Robyn was right, no.2 was a trick question.
    It wasn't a glass or bottle but the Champagne Room, 20mins is $70.

    NSFW

    Edit - Showgirls is the answer to all questions.

  • Angus Robertson,

    1 ...we would have cut its funding years ago.

    2. Showgirls is officially designated Auckland City's - Adjunct Consultative Centre for Administration of Transitional Authority. Watercare is paying your bill.

    3. a 2nd hand Aleksei Stakhanov .

    4. ''I'm going to Maui, where are you going?''

    5. Anywhere in Epsom.

  • Joe Hendren,

    Haha - well done Mr Slack :)

    3. Muzza as an Uruk-hai. If Hobbiton is a tourist attraction clearly our Minister of Tourism also wants to destroy valleys with deep pits in order to recreate the defiled Isengard and Mordor.

  • ScottY,

    1. ...it would be the subject of numerous BSA complaints.

    3. If you want to know, watch Lord of the Rings. There were nine of them.

    5. Yes, and he lives on a volcano in the Hauraki Gulf.

  • BenWilson,

    1...the signal/noise ratio would put it on par with hearing the news through a flushing toilet.
    2....either would do. If I then drank it and it was nice, I'd know it was all just a bad dream.
    3....Adonis, but straight. Perhaps a scar.
    4....it's code to his security guards to get between you - the question is to slow you down. Put your finger on the button and...
    5....when it comes to actually pissing yourself, it's best to already be in the water if you don't want anyone to notice. A beach in Maui is pretty safe, anyone there is up for a laugh.
