Why do you hate me, Sydney weather?


So.

No Third Test.

Sod Sydney!

There's always the BBL.

And hey, at least the tests get televised in their entirety, unlike the bloody WBBL.

Not a huge fan of BBL, Alex.

Too exciting.

There was a frisson at the thought of a set of staged declarations. This possibility was explored with forensic diligence by the remaining ABC commentary team. I value rain delays as they provide that space. Not on Channel Nein, they just do endless reruns of soft victories. And fuck you Shane Warne. Knob.

Election Prediction. Labor will gain 11 + - seats, Independents 6 in the Reps, Libs/Nats form an unstable and entropic Government and the Senate is a fucking nightmare. But of course it's fingers crossed for a 4% uniform swing. My wish list includes a drubbing in Indi of the harpy Mirabella, and a pantsing of the buffoon Joyce in New England.

Alex said...

Oh, to be rid of Barnaby Rubble too; do I even dare to dream it Catlick.

The only thing sweeter would be if the Xenophorians could sweep both Christopher Pyne and Cory Bernardi out of SA.

How have you been by the way?

catlick said...

Hiiii! Alex. All good here. Insurance issues resolved. "clink" and "ka-ching!" I'm curiously awaiting the Senate figures on informal, donkey and fuck-nuckle voting. And yes, the X man might make life interesting.

Alex said...

Happy to hear about the "ka-ching". Slightly confused about the "clink" though.

How are the legs? If I remember right, the last lot of news wasn't great?

I'm also keen to see how many people vote for independents and minor parties this time around. Was talking to some rusted-on Nats supporters the other day who reckon they've switched their support to the Lib-Dems this time around.

catlick said...

That "clink" was the touching sound of cheap glasses filled with very expensive booze. The legs are compromised, but hey, aren't we all? As for flippy floppy Rural Socialists, I would be happy for them to grow a pair, break the coalition, vote with Labor, Independents and or the Greens on specific issues. Sooooo waiting for Saturday. Maybe Labor will do slightly better than I predicted. The thing I hope for (failing a clear Labor victory) would be a cobbled together fractious unsustainable short lived and doomed Coalition Government. *sigh

8.44 pm. I have a shit-eating grin. Be still, my beating heart.

Alex said...

So has Tony Abbott.

I've thoroughly enjoyed seeing them at each other's throats on Seven.

Alex said...

Looks like the baboon's arsehole will not be back. Sadly, it seems we're stuck with Barnaby though.

Hey you guys. Tidying up my digital life, and saying ciao. No, not dying, just Death Cleaning. It's been fun, but checking in here for ghosts is just silly. I'll leave this up for a while, and let me say my time here was time well spent with a the best imaginary friends one could ask for.

shitbmxrider said...

I wonder how many people still check in here from time to time looking for a new post?

Bi-annually here, for mine.

Unknown said...

Well, I did Shitbmx... for the first time in probably a year.
Catlick: Don't go! Ramon may one day post something.
I have three kids now and (literally) a picket fence, plus, Richmond won a premiership, so everything turned out alright.
I hope all of you are are doing well too.


Unknown said...

Jeez, blog doesn't even recognise me anymore.
'Unknown' is Perseus.

squib said...

I check twice-ish a year. Best thing I got out of this place was Lewd Bob's 2009 mixtape, which I still play when I do the ironing

Don't go Catlick!

Alex said...

So, it's less than an hour away from the end of 2018, and I'm checking in here, and I can see that there's at least four people who've left comments in the last twelve months. Maybe it's just the alcohol talking, but is anybody interested in starting something new?

I mean, I can start the fuckin' thing if people are interested, but like, other people would have to contribute to it too, because I'm kind of shit at writing stuff that interesting and witty and whatnot.

Any takers?

Hi, just checking in after this came to mind today as a part of the memory of the end of TSSH... what a before its time that place was. Would probably seem a bit mild in fact!
