Hard News: About Arie, in reply to Sacha,
We don’t need to make it more than it is.
plus, if Arie expressing a wish to not push the envelope on this, you've got to respect it.
if you've ever encountered the rough side of justice you'll know the main loss you suffer is trust in the police. consequent to that loss is a fear that they'll "come after you". to some people the phrase 'police presence' strikes fear, not reassurance.
i can guess that Arie *could* be leaning towards the latter.

true.
how about, "we will question the Minister of Police in the House."
no? Labour not willing to hold the Govt to account?
Again.

I have a grand nephew* who reads atlases for fun*.
i used to do that as a tacker! even thought seriously about becoming a cartographer.
you should introduce him to dymaxion mapping. first encountered it through scifi and instantly considered it more awesome than... the transformers even

Even though Mediaworks’ problem is basically that it was acquired by a greedy, stupid private equity firm.
russel, russell, russell... please refer to page 57, stanza 12 of the Market Manual.
there are no greedy or stupid private firms.
"And lo, the Market did create unto Man the perfect means of Life, and it was good [sic]"

I’m pretty sure Lhaws is convinced he’s firing at 100% all the time
most madmen are.
he's sure as hell not on the spectrum though.
DISCLAIMER: unless by "teh spectrum" you're referring to the range between douchebag and arsehat.

*Everyone* is less that 100% in some way – it’s what I like about autism being seen as a spectrum.
i worry about this kind of description. it's a reality, but it gives wankers like Lhaws the opportunity to claim they're part of a minority.

You have to go up the McD’s food chain to, like, the Big Mac or something to get the luxury of lettuce.
i think they actually call it "a green lettuce-like substitute". or "GLLS"
