I also feel a deep sense of betrayal caused by the deliberate and repeated actions of some whose hubris has distracted attention away from the real issues we need to be addressing. What were they thinking?
If only we had some sort of ... of ... Thought Police?

What stupid young women
Stupid young men too. Today's young people don't really care about much more than going out, getting trashed, getting laid, and having enough minutes left on their cellphone to stay in touch with allllll their friends.
Life is a party and you should just chill y'know? I mean global warming is bad okay, but sexism? That's bad too y'know but its not really a problem. If some guy makes a dumbass remark I just tell him he's a fucken loser, y'know?
Okay I'll stop talking like that cos I'm not really a young person ... my point is that the majority of young people today don't really give a shit about anything because they've never had to. They are a generation living with low unemployment and easy credit. So they can't afford a house, so what? They're 23 and earning 30-40+k a year. That's enough to go out with their mates 3 times a week and have a good time. An excellent time.
So girls in bikini's on horseback eating burgers don't mean nothing ... it's just a girl in a bikini on a horse. Eating a burger.
Need I remind you all about Boobs On Bikes?? Plenty of women watching (but still the minority) and they thought it was fine. A bit of a laugh.
FWIW I wish more young people cared more about issues that will affect them in the longterm. But they're young, dumb, and full of... fun. They don't get it yet. And for some, that light bulb moment will never come. Hopefully my daughter will be enlightened, and to be honest I'm not too worried. When my 5y.o. daughter grows up she'll be running shit. Just like her mum.

If Saddam could hide WMD from both the UN Inspectors and the Coalition of the Willing, I don't doubt Tama Terrorist could have hidden his AK47's, Molotov's, Napalm, and Dirty Bombs ... we just haven't found them yet. Maybe we need new laws on Search & Seizure ...

So is "Can We Fix It?" by Bob The Builder ...

Ace Of Base? WTF?

From what I've heard about the place, writers are somewhere above the homeless but below janitors on the Hollywood social ladder.
Heh heh. We've all heard the joke about every waitress in Hollywood is a waitress-slash-actress, but this video from The Office really takes the cake:
This video from The Daily Show puts the whole thing in perspective (and it's funnier):

Personally I think its the sort of venue the council should own
And Greg Innes (CEO of The Edge)(the entertainment precinct, not the radio station) thinks the same way. He even tried to get the council to buy it a few years back.
Sorry sir, the NZ police force doesn't deal with such things
It's not a question of race, it's a question of statistics. If the Police can talk you out of filing a complaint then that reduces the stats on reported crime, making them look good. I can imagine if you fronted up the station they would try talk you out of it:
1. Do you have an independent witness?
2. Can you prove the other driver was in the wrong?
3. Can you identify the driver?
4. Are you certain you didn't contribute in some way (wink, nudge) you were 'out on the town' yourself, weren't you?
5. We're pretty snowed under to be honest. It's a question of priorities, and from what you tell me no-one was injured, it's just property damage. My best advice is to talk your insurance company, that's what I'd do. -
He owes me damages and an apology.
Look, I'm really sorry, and Damages is free-to-air on Wednesday nights (TV1) ...
Hang on, there's nothing to joke about really:Sideswiped me @ 130 kph on the Esmonde Road offramp sending me into a very nearly catastrophic spin
My sister in law was killed in the very same way in the 80s. Sideswiped at 3am by an off duty female Parking Warden who'd been drinking in the Police Club all night long. Funnily enough no-one thought to breathalyse her at the scene. And my immigrant in-laws didn't want to make a fuss, so they just buried her.
(I tell this story every chance I get, which is about once a decade) -
TV3 is currently featuring a video 'Ali Ikram sings Let's Hear it for Tuhoe' karaoke style'
I saw it live this morning. I thought it was funny. But not very PC. My 5 y.o. daughter walked in just as Tama Iti's bared butt was wiggling in slo-mo. She laughed, but I think Family First should have warned me of this outrage.

The interview with Bob McCroskie on bFM is interesting because he admits that he hadn't actually watched Californication before calling for it to be boycotted.
Something the MSM shoulda/coulda asked before reprinting FF's press release (with a phone quote inserted for good measure)??
