Paging Mr Frydenburg, Mr Josh Frydenburg, please report to the burns unit immediately

Fun fact, if Weatherill was in WA he would have been arrested for murdering Fartenberg in todays duel.

Is a one sided beatdown considered a duel?

How about verbally taking the steel cap boots to someone's ribs?

Your Honor my client wishes to plead the incident was a thrashing, not a duel.

Not "a" duel. Duel. The old Steven Spielberg movie. A friend of mine attacked me with the video case. Some stupid argument about who had the coolest bicycle clips. I got him back though. I peed in his mum's steam iron. He had yellow T-shirts for a week.

what are they going to do? stop renting out their houses and cop the new vacancy tax?


speaking of which, I'm trying to get my landlord/agent to fix some poo poo and it's been dragging out even though I've sent in one of those notice to landlord forms. The handy man has checked it all out, should I just say gently caress it and get consumer affairs to get involved? I'm not fussed if I don't get offered a renewal on this place at the end of the lease

If they're 7 property mortgages in debt to own everything they can't afford to leave anything vacant anyway.

The people of Australia are free to live whatever lives they choose just so long as they choose to go back to church, return to the tradition of tithing 10% of their salary, all women wear long dresses instead of men's pants and the peasants cease disrespecting their social betters.

Wouldn't be surprised if they chucked Bishop up there so they can say "we let a woman lead the party and the country" while also saying "clearly women don't work out in leadership, as shown by this historic election loss, see you in another thirty years".

I keep looking at his open extra-undone-button collar and suit jacket combo when he should be wearing a sports jacket if he's going to try and pull that off.
It's obviously too hot for him but he didn't know how to dress appropriately so just tossed on any old "suit jacket and shirt" because he doesn't know how to dress himself.
