Reasons you will hate me

have you noticed searching google for climate change you get a link to a youtube sattire of TeddyB talking about climate change, with an authorised by message at the end. are the poly's using the electric interweb for campaigning?

It's true, the rest of his family I have heard are pretty much lefties. It's bizarre. The same with Jeff, his mother once said to my mum 'I don't know where we went wrong with Jeffrey'.

Although this does make me a tad worried about when we all have kids, Fits.

I'd rather not think about that for the moment, sublime. Best enjoy sticking the boot into someone else while it lasts.

his missus was also quoted in the age as saying ted "ROCKS" after a function a few weeks back.

is she 14 years old? or on crack?

Actually, George Clooney was never a Hasty Pudding Man of the Year.

Don't be a pedant Anon, you knew exactly what I meant.

i, for one, never thought liberals "rocked" when i was 14 and on crack.

maybe she's 12 and on ice?

See! This is what I was talking about! A while ago I may have mentioned taking a long term view and breeding Libs out of existence and got poo-poohed! And now they're doing it to us! I've already taught the 4-yr-old to say "John Howard sucks" whenever he comes on tv, which must go down a treat at the parents-in-laws (mwahhahaahaaa....).

Robyn had better think he's the "hunk from Hawthorn", surely it is her role in life for crying out loud.

Imagine the furore if she'd quietly noted, "Yes, I think he's a bit up himself.

*beat*

Oh, sorry, I meant to say, HE'LL BE GOOD FOR THE STATE GODDAMMIT!!!!!"

That would have been almost as fun as her mum displaying Rob Hudson's charming face on her Bentleigh lawn. ALMOST.

'I don't know where we went wrong with Jeffrey'.

Well, being rich and sending him to Scotch College may have been contributing factors. Dingwad.

Nice MacLeod's Daghters reference in your Green Guide column today, Fitsy. I was going to comment that today was the second anniversary of our first gathering but then realised that was the 12th.

Vote Nationals.

i reckon i could find her house. shall i take her around some anzac biscuits from all of us?

Dear Ms Fits,

I know it's terribly improper of me to do this, but I wanted to clarify that I wrote my piece on Tripping Over (on my TV blog) before I saw that you wrote your Green Guide article on same.

Interestingly (or not), we use largely different examples to give the same basic impression: Watch it.

I just wanted it to be clear that I wasn't copying you. Intentionally.

Much love, etc,

BEVIS

Not at all, Bevis. Free country and all that.



p.s. MG - I insist.

I used to date a lass whos parents where the most amazing lefties imaginable – we even had Xmas day at Eva Cox' house one year, in a slightly mystifying turn of events. She, of course, had rebelled by becoming an emotionally repressed lawyer. True story.

Who cares what his mother-in-law thinks? I can't believe this shit is on the front page of the paper.

Seriously, gotta go with Tony Wilson this morning on the radio 'I am sure there are heaps of people whose parents-in-law have different political views from themselves.'

Now, the fact his wife used the word "rocks" and "hunk" is fucking gay, and should be a greater embarrassment to both Ted and his mother-in-law.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not going to vote for the guy, Wynne’s got mine sewn up, but jeez – it’s his mother in law – it would be news if it was his wife

I probably could help MG - I live in Bentleigh also. A funny story - Rob Hudson was at our primary school fete on Saturday, with his little labour badge on, and I said 'Rob there must be an election on, we havent seen you here since the last election!" he was surprised, saying he'd been at the fete every year, to which a mate and I replied in stereo "bullshit!" Not every day you get to say bullshit to a sitting MP's face......

nice one.

just drove to school and back and was slowing at every house with a board in the front.

her house does look familiar.

and i meant to say before, "dropping around some anzac biscuits from all of us" is not code for "hitting her with a dirty bomb" just in case this blog is being monitored by the spooks. which i can't imagine it would be anyway. i don't imagine any words in this forum would trip the asio-wire.

My grandfather was poor and went to Scotch and was fiercely Left all his life.
What's your point?

Oh, it was a fun story.

I'm sure the mother-in-law jokes will be getting a run at Liberal HQ today.

Seems mother and daughter are not getting on (shades of the Katonas perhaps).

Ted's going to lose, anyway.

Sorry Subs. Of course there are exceptions.

My point is that if you're rich and sent to an expensive private school like Scotch college (isn't it?) you're likely to come out a right wing snot. Don't these places foster a sense of entitlement amongst those already at the top of the heap? That's what conservatism is about. A ppor kid at one of these schools isn't going to pick up these positive vibes. If Scotch College isn't one of these sorts of schools I apologise, and we must join Jeff Kennett's nanna in her mystification.

I meant D.A.M.H.C.

D.E.M.H.C.

D.E.P.H.C.

D.E.P.H.Q.

W.E.P.H.Q.

This whole fucked disc'n about Ted's MIL made my day as i sit in grey and wet london looking for work, without much $ & being nostalgic about Melb.

"are the poly's using the electric interweb for campaigning? "

Yup.

PS Much as I hate the Libs, I still think it's a bit rough for his MIL to be actively campaigning for the other side. Then again, I suppose if she didn't people would assume horrible, horrible things about her just because of her family (that she'd vote for the Liberals), so maybe making a public stand is fair enough.

interesting to see landeryou's moved into the youtube domain.

make it landeryoutube.

fingers. pies. many. scary.

MG and donkey: Mama Jubb's house is in Jasper Road. Let's get a party together and visit.

hey, i have located it too. so i'm not dreaming then.
