Ms Fits is an irritatingly smug 32 year-old television writer who yearns to be Bob Ellis but will settle for Bob Hart. At least he gets free meals. Pompous nobjockey.

THU27JAN

A few pieces for your enjoyment this sticky Thursday morning.


- I hate children.


If you ever want to get hugely depressed about the state of today's youth (and let's face it, who doesn't?), just sit for an hour or so and watch the sms messages scroll across the screen on Channel V.
Tell me. Are we raising a nation of retarded teens?


'HI!!! PLEEEEEZE PLAY FAVROTITE CLIP BY MUSE THANX! STACE! P.S. WAZZUP FI'
'i wud ask the streets were he getz mad bling werd'
'YO NEWCASTLE JANE SEZ HEY'



Why can these people not spell? Because they don't read. And also because they are fans of Slipknot .
I suggest a severe beating. Followed by a week in the company of Neil Mitchell .


- The truth.


It is un-Australian to like Andrew G .


- Doesn't take a genius.


Apparently it's not okay to parody the tsunami just yet .


According to the Daily News :


'The host of a New York morning radio show and the rest of her on-air crew were suspended indefinitely Wednesday for airing a tasteless song parody that mocked victims of the catastrophic south Asia tsunami.'


It gets better, though. The lyrics, sung to the tune of 'We Are the World', included references to "screaming chinks" and orphaned children "sold into child slavery." The chorus began, "So now you're screwed, it's a tsunami, you'd better run ... go find your mommy."
WHO KNEW THAT THIS COULD POSSIBLY OFFEND SOME LISTENERS?


I have to say, the thing that gets me most about this article is the completely straight-faced sentence:
'The station was subsequently flooded with thousands of angry phone calls demanding the firing of morning show host Tarsha Jones, known on air as Miss Jones.'


I don't know whether to laugh or crawl under the table and die.


- After-party back at mine.


Um, thanks to everyone who voted for me in the 2005 Australian Blog Awards . It looks like I totally won a couple. I love that every time I won there's some paragraph about how I actually should have lost but preferences tipped me over the edge. I am so the living blog embodiment of Family First right now.




986 days til the next election.

I've just discovered your website, and have read your posts. You seem like a horny chick. I'm a dirty old man. Do you think we've got a future together?

I've decided that you ought to put aside all the saucy dares, and dare yourself to spend an afternoon with a toddler.

Also, I listened to Best of the Brat for the first time ever the other night, and would like to thankyou for mentioning Jonathan Brandis. Even if you did get his name wrong. It was as though you knew I was listening. Sigh.

Congrats, Great Queen Fitsio.

The 1st pref votes were tiny but I think this basically means that most people thought of you after pleasuring (voting for) themselves. Of course, some of us thought of *your* needs first...

Congratulations, yeah, yeah.
Best text message ever seen to scroll across the bottom of a video clip on Channel 10:
DAVE. LET ME IN, I'M DWNSTAIRS, I'VE FORGOTTEN MY KEYS
Nearly cacked myself when I saw that gem go across.

Congratulations beloved.

Well deserved (apart from a couple of minor unMinty moments).

Off the chosen topic, but have you read this? http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2005/01/26/1106415665621.html
I'm agreeing with Miranda Divine. I assume the world ends next?

The rest of the article also says:

But Hot has been here before, with other storms, and has ridden most of them out. The bottom-line defense is, "We're not hating on you. We go after everyone."

Surely a New York station with such an attitude should've gone hardest after 9/11 ?

Everyone is born creative; everyone is given a box of crayons in kindergarten
-hugh, artist of the blogosphere

Do you really hate the hands that hold the crayons??? (smile)

Now that you are the winner we all have reasons to love you ... whether you hate it or not!

I quite like the bit where Andrew G wonders what the air might smell like at the bottom of the dead sea.
I'm sure there a plenty of people more than willing to show him

Well, they're teenagers rather than children, but yes. Illiterate bastards shit me.

Meanwhile, congrats.

First I forgot that I wasn't Australian and registered to vote and then I forgot to vote. It's better this way as I was going to vote using two different email addresses. Wait a sec. Actually it would have been hot to cheat and double stuff your ballot box.*



*Absolutely, totally, not at all a sexual euphimism.


Hmmm... Have you ever done a DP Fits?

I registered but didn’t get the link thing to actually vote. Sorry Fitz. Good to see though you won none the less.

Hey, were were neck and neck until the preferences came in. Then I disappeared completely.

I do like to polarise an audience.

Congratulations to youse.... for some reason I can't bring myself to emulate these losers.
