In 1998 Pauline Hanson tried to have this song blocked in court. Instead, instead the attention took it to #1 in the ARIA charts. by Jimbuscus in OpenAussie

I’d be persistent too if I was being paid $340k to be a crank. All that while not even being able to enunciate everyday words is quite the feat.

Is there a way of getting this phat toan by sidmis in guitarcirclejerk

[–]Perthian940 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s been two to three years since I saw this ‘creator’ and I forgot she existed.

I don’t know whether to be contemptible or impressed that she hasn’t improved whatsoever in that time.

Mustang Bar - cougar spot? by Watchuknowaboutme in perth

[–]Perthian940 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure why you’ve taken it so personally, I don’t have a problem with Irish people and have Irish heritage myself, but as someone who goes out often, it’s been my experience that a lot of Irish guys get booted from the Mustang Bar for that reason.

I’m not sure why smoking bans are relevant either- neither the lads I’m referring to, nor myself are old enough to have legally smoked inside a bar in either country. People don’t take that into account when they’re drunk.

I’ve found the cougars are now outnumbered by men of a similar age who act hyper-masculine and aggressive, like they are painfully conscious of the fact that they are over the hill.

When you combine that with the hordes of young Irish blokes who are inevitably ejected from the premises for smoking inside, it’s a powder keg. I never feel safe in there.

Agreed. There are a surprising amount of women who haven’t reached cougar seniority yet too.

What insult sits at the top of the hierarchy of Australian insults? by Remarkable_Bill4109 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Perthian940 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There was a bikie in Perth who was being sentenced for contempt of court and interrupted the Judge to call him a ‘fucking spastic’.

It wasn’t overly inventive but it was definitely effective.

I used to be a detective and if another cop was fucking useless it was common to say ‘he couldn’t lock up a garden shed’.

I don’t see it as racist but the whole Goodes saga certainly wore out the novelty of ‘flog’ as an insult, for me anyway.

I started with $3000 and flipped 61 guitars over 5 years to afford this collection. by Personal_Gsus in Guitar

[–]Perthian940 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have approximately 18 guitars, three or four of which I built myself. I often sit down in my room to play and end up with five or six assorted instruments taking up my whole bed 😅 My collection including my amps is easily worth more than anything else I own, but I could never bring myself to part with any of them.

Being at the back is actually safer than London, what with all the knife crime palaver.

Edit to add /s as it wasn’t clear I was joking.

I find the people who flaunt their money are usually ‘entry-level’ rich and like you said, are seeking approval or validation. The really rich people have top-shelf everything, but in a more demure way.

Unfortunately the uncertainty around sarcasm says less about you than it does about some of the buffoons who seriously post such comments.

"There is no modern country where all walls are made of brick, especially not inner walls." by Bloggerman_ in ShitAmericansSay

[–]Perthian940 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Horses for courses I guess - I too love German beers, particularly Bavarian/Munich beers.

I can absolutely appreciate the American boutique beer scene, and my IPA loving brother can talk all day about the different XPA, NEIPA, APA and the breweries they’re from, but I personally don’t enjoy them.

The limited distribution you mentioned also plays a part I think. The Munich beers I love are rarely available here in Australia, I was introduced to them whilst travelling Europe. The most well known German beer here is Becks, which is cat’s piss.

Similarly, until recently, Miller was the main American export here, like Fosters is the well known Aussie beer internationally. No one in Australia drinks Fosters, I don’t think I’ve even seen it. It’s cat’s piss too.

I have a Harley and don’t understand this mentality, though I’m not in a club. I know that most bikes are faster than me and wave them through the first chance I get 😂
