  • Hard News: The Short and Long of It,

    If you want Russell to act or think on your view, you may need to quantify "difference".

    Didn't take long for them to reveal their true ghastly colours, did it? Fucking bastards. And she's the worst of the lot because she touts herself as having been from a "deprived" background. Whatever, love. Shame she didn't remember what it felt like before she completely screwed those women over.

  • Speaker: What Diversity Dividend?,

    nz has to try that much harder because it is small and very far away.

    No, no, no. Why should we try at all? I like living here because it is so small and far away. Why oh why do we have to be tryhards. Fuck 'em. IMVHO, we need to cut it out with the trying thing. We need to stick to what we do well, and not worry so much about what the rest of the bastards are doing. When everyone else is being blown up by atomic bombs, and suffocated with their own filth, we're down here quite happy. Good job.

  • Island Life: The Guilt of Clayton Weatherston,

    Back to the topic of the original posting, if only briefly. Did anyone catch the Weatherstons on 60 Minutes? I felt very sorry for them, really. The way they were describing him was so prescient, and yet, of course, they were unable to see it. Crying over not getting perfect marks in his last paper when he'd got them the whole way through his degree? Hmm. Hindsight. Oh, and also interesting, the report on the guy that killed Ron Brown (the case where provocation was "proved" because, yes, Ron Brown was gay and obviously deserved to die). How fucking ridiculous. Going home with an old bloke and then bashing the shit out of him because he touched you, supposedly inappropriately? God, the number of old bastards I could have killed, and got away with it. What was I thinking?

  • Up Front: Public Address Medical…,

    That which does not kill us has just made its last mistake.

    That, my lovely, is completely apt for you. Oh, bugger. You made me cry again.

  • Hard News: The Short and Long of It,

    .

    Is there a better site than Pa/PAS in the entire ANZ blogisphere?

    Nope

    I concur. Oh, and I suck at scrabble. So if ever I happen to meet you, and manage to not be tonguetied and pathetic, don't take advantage and ask me to play this devilish game. Because I will cry.

  • Up Front: Public Address Medical…,

    Oh, Emma. Thanks for sharing this. And thank goodness it's benign. I read the wikipedia thing and it may all sound goodish, but you know, cancer bestows it's own legacy. My lovely, much missed Dad had a very good toast he used regularly. I gift it to you. Confusion to your enemies! May Adric remain permanently confused.

  • Hard News: The Short and Long of It,

    Re the rest of your -not quite coherent- post - WTF?

    Literary giant and concise, to boot. Heart you, Islander.

  • Hard News: The Short and Long of It,

    You see, Sacha? You just turned this into a love fest. I like lovefests. The more sardonic amongst us may be appallled.
