*Returns a tad early with the sound of laughter being resonated from the grounds*

Ummm, you guys didn't see that did you? *Nothing........*

*Thank heavens*

*See's Odie chanting a familiar tune, responds in a similar manner*

Oi Oi Oi! C'mon Thorpie!

Sorry post Olympic fever

Speaking of Thorpie, you know how he has that stupid Undercover Angels show? How come Cathy Freeman, another famous sports star with a likewise impressive record of achievements, and an aboriginal to boot (thus being more "Politically Correct") doesn't have her own TV show? This is racial discrimination at it's worst!

Or using a more recent political example "She wouldn't have missed out on her own show if she had been a woman..."

I think I'll write in to the paper and complain...

Nothing wrong with cheering for Thorpie, Tam

EDIT - apart from Ode's comments, that is

The above post is an example of a favourite past-time of mine, I call it "Cynically Abusing/Making Fun of the System"

The only problem with it as a hobby is that it's decidedly on the easy side.

The absolutely hilarious thing is that it would probably work extremely well, if I really sent in the letter and it got published.

- that would be something! ** SLURRs some E.S.S. from the tub **

I wish I was joking. There used to be vitamin C pills in the shape of koala bears, until one woman complained that they were encouraging children to attempt to eat koalas, and they were removed and replaced with bog-standard round ones.

I'm serious, BTW, this is not a joke.

- some people... ** SLURRs some more E.S.S. from the tub ** (do you know "Flippo's"? We had a similar experience here with that)

I mean. seriously! Who on earth complains that the shape of their childrens' vitamin C tablets encourage them to go out and try to munch on a koala? It's just so stupid, and it worked.

Sometimes I wonder about mankind...

Well we have the robots type, I say thats discrimmination

Ode to a Grasshopper · Tue Jul 23, 2002 12:56 am

Yeah! Koala equality!

*Thinks of staging a protest*

Hmmm, I don't think a two person rally would make a big impression.

Ode to a Grasshopper · Tue Jul 23, 2002 1:12 am

We could combine it with an anti-Undercover Angels protest...

Tamerlane · Post by **Tamerlane** » Tue Jul 23, 2002 1:18 am

LMAO that may just work

Ode to a Grasshopper · Tue Jul 23, 2002 2:19 am

Well mates, I won't be here all of Friday, I just found out. Going out to dinner.

**hops in the tub and waits for the spliff to come his way**

I'll be forced to attending another useless meeting this afternoon - so I won't be around much - not that it'll make a huge difference. My RL is definitely NOT nice just now. I hope my holiday in August will make me feel better
