Note to Australian government and advertisers: it doesn’t have to be gory and horrific to have shock value. Well done, Volkswagen!
Adam Bandt, you are a complete and utter twit — I didn’t think it was possible to be more alarmist and moronic than Bob Brown, but you’ve achieved that with vigour!
I cannot fathom why some people support this idiot:
Why Tony Abbott's plan means more bushfires for Australia & more pics like this of Sydney http://t.co/bXFaAT6kLf http://t.co/tJyljLIGp4

I’m not a cilmate sceptic. I’m not a hater of change. I want our “green-aware” political party to be effectual, wonderous and all-planet-saving, but… why these two clowns?!?
If they simply portrayed some level of mature intelligence, and stopped with the alarmist, sensationalist crap, my vote would be bolting toward them.
I have to say, apart from the very, very deep and obvious hated embedded in this post, I do agree with the hazard burning (being that my own father is in the bush), and the meme is just gold.
So we were at a café yesterday, grabbing a late breakfast-at-lunchtime thing, when it was time to order.
I ordered my meal, and wanted a drink as well.
“Do you have apple juice?”
“No, we only have organic apple juice,” was his reply
“Huh?!”
“You know, like, cloudy apple juice.”
This silly shit has gone on too long. For reference as to my head space, the dictionary definition is this:
or·gan·ic [awr-gan-ik]
adjective
- noting or pertaining to a class of chemical compounds that formerly comprised only those existing in or derived from plants or animals, but that now includes all other compounds of carbon.
- characteristic of, pertaining to, or derived from living organisms: organic remains found in rocks.
- of or pertaining to an organ or the organs of an animal, plant, or fungus.
- of, pertaining to, or affecting living tissue: organic pathology.
- Psychology . caused by neurochemical, neuroendocrinologic, structural, or other physical impairment or change: organic disorder. Compare functional ( def 5 ) .
I’m pretty sure apple juice is derived from a living apple; the giveaway is that I asked for apple juice.
“You know, like, cloudy apple juice.”
No doubt what he was crapping on about was something along the lines of “no added whateverthefuck“, or perhaps that the apples were killed humanely, or maybe were free range apples. I just wanted apple juice.
“Cloudy”? So like, you mean, freshly squeezed, you asshat?
Here’s the kicker — the drink never came anyway. Perhaps due to my dispassionate nature towards the organic-o-meter-ness of it, I was banned.
Take it away, DJO:
Philosophical Sunday: It’s quite mind boggling how often people fail to think outside of the box they live in, with respect to work/life balance, remuneration & rewards, and working conditions, and an overall quality of life.
It allows people that shouldn’t be coding, to write horrid code.
It’s looking like a good year so far 🙂
The new wave of the fish chilli farm! First time growing jalapenos too.
So, today marks five days without cigarettes, based on my e-cig quest. Prior to that, I’ve quit once before, for two months.
Happy with that 🙂 not seeing any glaringly obvious benefits thus far though… Pity.
