Plain Talking with Clemetine Ford

In her article entitled "Shouting back at Twitter rape threats", Clemetine Ford dropped this little beauty:

"...her efforts were rewarded by a sustained Twitter attack from some of the more repugnant turds excreted by society's sulphurous bottom."

Way to go Clementine!  You tell them!

Me and Banky

I couldn't have foreseen the day when I would hold John Banks up as someone to honor.

(image: www.idealog.co.nz)

Today is that day.  Who would have thought?

You see, John has publicly spoken out against the testing of psychoactive substances (party pills et al) on animals.  Good on you John!

The Psychoactive Substances Bill is currently before a parliamentary committee despite an overwhelming number of Kiwis being against this cruel and inhumane treatment of animals.

If you wouldn't want your child/sibling/relative using these drugs then why allow them to be tested on animals?  Surely a complete ban is the way to move forward?

I can't believe that animal testing is so blithely accepted in New Zealand.

And before you claim that it doesn't happen here, it does.  Have a look at this: http://www.banbeagleexperiments.org.nz/

Ignorance is bliss right?

The good people of New Zealand are up in arms about this bill.  Join us.

Paint.NET chain link tutorial

Speaking of tutorials.   My mate Welshblue has come up with this beauty: Chain Link tutorial

Once again, Welshblue has proved just why he has been recognized as the King of Paint.NET. I don't think my try at the tutorial does it justice.

Still.  Neat effect eh?  Thanks Welshblue!

Roll out the barrel

New tutorial posted on the Paint.NET forum by Skullbonz.

Winston Preciousssssss Peters

Dear old John Key has today refused to rule out working with Winston Peters in the next post-election fallout.

Remember, Frodo had to work with Gollum, distasteful as it was, in order to achieve a higher goal.

Beware, John. Winston is more tricksy and less trustworthy that Gollum ever was.  And of course he is his own Preciousssssss...

Saul Jacob Beaumont - scumbag

Saul Jacob Beaumont appeared in the Hamilton District court today, charged with deliberately breaking the tails of 46 cows.  Beaumont acknowledged responsibility for the depraved acts and cited 'anger issues' as some sort of defense.

What a bloody monster.

You would have to fear that this creature is going to have a long and terrible career as a violent criminal.

This sort of offending tells you that he is a danger to all those around him - children especially.

Let's hope he's impotent.

Prince Charming?
