Has New Zealand Cricket been taking man-management lessons from the Labour Party?
When can we start politicking over the Hobsonville tornado?
If I admit that Garth McVicar deserves credit for helping someone immensely, will my head explode?
Is repeated exposure to Feliz Navidad a defence to anything under the Crimes Act?
Is there more than one Pete George? How else to explain the multiple Pete George posts appearing regularly on every blogsite in the country? Apart from on The Standard, that is.
Why don't conservatives all hate Santa? He dresses in red, works one day a year, and gives stuff away for free. Is it because the rich kids still get the best toys?
Why hasn't use of the term "New Zealand Inc." and all its variants been criminalised?
How often do climate scientists meet to conduct their bloody and secretive rituals, and how do I join their diabolical club? Surely it wouldn't involve actual study since, according to the wine experts and architects who so powerfully critique their work, it's all made up anyway.
If the Mayan Prophecy comes true, will my life insurance still pay out?
Does anyone else buy The Truth for the crossword?

Yes the irksome McVicar deserves kudos for supporting the extremely courageous Susan Couch who has been dealt appalling by various government agencies. Like you I find it hard to praise McVicar but he’s got this one right.
ReplyDeleteI buy it for the tits and the bin man
ReplyDelete(1): No - there is still too high a level of basic competence on display for us to draw that conclusion.
ReplyDelete(2): Well, it is a pretty speedy riposte to Tim Grosser yanking us out of the Kyoto Protocol ... so I'd say Gaia wants you to go for it.
(3): Even a stopped clock, etc, etc.
(4): There are no defences left under the Crimes Act (except self-defence, provided the person claiming it is either a farmer or white and middle class).
(5): Just don't mention his name three times whilst looking in a mirror. For the love of god, don't.
(6): Because Santa is a social conservative, who believes strongly in imposing his moral values (sorry, wholesome and time-tested moral values) on the young using traditional forms of reward and punishment.
(7): Because if we didn't have that inane slogan to toss round, we'd have to revert to talking about "the common good". And that sounds so Twentieth Century.
(8): An application form is in the mail. You'll also note the (admittedly steep) joining fee, which I'd like you to promptly deposit into my bank account. Thanks.
(9): Don't be silly. Life insurance policies don't pay out for ANYTHING! Don't you read small print?
(10): I think you might be vastly overestimating the average Truth reader by thinking there's anything as fancy-pantsy, arty-farty or namby-pamby as a "crossword" in it
Isn't it a pity that the pressure isn't on for Victim Support as a human right for all in NZ without getting sidetracked by Mr McVicar.
ReplyDelete>Does anyone else buy The Truth for the crossword?
ReplyDeleteThe boxing commentary used to be quite good. I'd always nick it, though, from someone who was "finished" with it.
Do people actually buy The Truth ? The pile at my local service station never seems to go down..
ReplyDelete1. For NZ Cricket to resemble Labour, they would have to be stabbing themselves with the wickets and hitting each other with their bats whilst blaming the umpire...
ReplyDeleteOh. Wait...
2. You can start politicking over the tornado any time you like. Wear steel underpants
3. Yes, your head WILL explode if you say something nice about Garth MacVicar. But don't let that stop you...
4. If you kill the DJ or the store manager, I'm sure someone can get you off on grounds of temporary insanity.
5. I could also probably get you off on the same basis if you murdered the inventor of the Pete George cloning machine.
6. Actually, we conservatives hate Santa. But we are all slightly dyslexic, so we call him Satan. Sorry to mislead you...
7. We will be criminalizing the use of NZ inc just as soon as our campaign to have the death sentence reinstated is successful
8. Climate scientists belong to the Freemasons and report directly to the illuminati. You can't join. You can only be assimilated.
9. You have life insurance? Isn't that a bit of a waste of money considering we are all going to die later this month?
10. You buy the Truth? For the crossword??! Yeah, right.
1.Run out without facing a ball.(Horan)
ReplyDelete2.Just an isolated puff of wind.(Horan again)
3.I often dream about giving Helen Clark a good rodgering and my head hasn't exploded so I would not worry too much.
4.There is always Fairy tale of New York.
5. George who?
6.Have another coke and remember "ENJOY"
7.New Zealand, Middle Dearth.and getting worse.
8.The Koru club is where it all happens.
9.All forms of insurance is a waste of money, if you own something that you cannot afford to replace, you cannot afford to own it.(except third party)
10.I used to buy the truth for the whore section but you can get that online and since Fatboy has taken over I will not buy it on principle.
