    That nice young man they selected as Tauranga’s local MP is.

    A rather nice young man who should be thankful that what happens at conference (or gets power-chundered into a gutter in the Christchurch CBD and all over your best dress shoes) stays at conference.

    But being a dick doesn’t warrant being arrested.

    No it doesn’t. While I find the casual misogyny and homophobia of too much hip-hop beneath contempt, I wouldn’t use O’Connor’s rather slippery definition of incitement to deem dreck a hate crime.

    O’Connor better be right that there’s a lot more to come out on Friday (a recording of Taane chanting "hey, fuck up that policeman over there" would be a good start), because as things stand it really looks like the Police don’t need a lyrical assist to fuck their own mana.

    And please tell me you were looking to prove a causal relationship, not a casual relationship.

    Damn, and I was doing so well… Typo fixed, and I'd like it on the record that a casual relationship with Greg O’Connor is nothing more than a non-Freudian slip. :)

  • Muse: Hey Greg O'Connor, Krup You!, in reply to 3410,

    please tell me you considered calling this post:

    "Fuck Tha Police Association President".

    Yes -- but I'm trying to be a little sensitive to PA readers who should be working right now, and don't need the strife of a "please explain" note from IT. :)

  • Up Front: Fairy-Tale Autopsies, in reply to Jo S,

    On a slightly different tack – are there different levels for “lurkers”?
    Which I probably nearly count as, being an extremely infrequent poster.

    I guess there is, but what's so bad about lurking on (say) tech threads that are interesting, but actually contributing is so far above my level of competence the sun only appears for ten minutes a day? :)

  • Muse: Rugby World Kitsch, in reply to Jackie Clark,

    Obviously, I was sadly mistaken.

    Perhaps, but isn't it nice? (You have to picture Tim Curry for the full effect.)

    You’re all very filthy people.

    It took you four years and change to figure that out? Silly poppet.:)

  • Up Front: Fairy-Tale Autopsies, in reply to nzlemming,

    The problem with calling them “Tinks” is that every so often a “w” will slip in there and that won’t end well…

    Clap if you believe in fairies?

  • Muse: Rugby World Kitsch, in reply to Isabel Hitchings,

    I am not actually looking at a prehistoric dildo.

    I’ve been told in no uncertain terms that dildos are NSFW, regardless of the vintage. Prissy wussies… But isn't it pretty? I'd get rather narked having to scrape seal goo out of the detailing.

    There’s a reason Marxists become Actoids

    I generally have more of a problem with people who confuse politics with the more dogmatic fringes of cultic religion.
