  3. Not a bad list of profanities supplied, but misses several items which must be added for completeness:

    1) Bush Pig.

    What is a Bush Pig, you rightly ask? Why, an XX Chromosome Xirson who is

    2) As Ugly as a Hatful of Assholes. And more often than not

    3) Built like a Brick #$%^house.

    The further outback you go, the more likely you are to find a rough as guts bush pig propping up the bar in a pub. Helps with the beer sales turnover though.

    FWIW, there is no justification for Rooting a Bush Pig.. not even if said item

    4) Bangs Like a Dunny Door in a Cyclone.

    There’s a very dry and Laconic streak to the more everyday and less theatrically hammed up Australian Slang / Profanity — but it’s very situational and on-the-fly –> have to be there and in the moment to catch it.

    Time to raise the tone:

    Monty Python

  6. Not sure why I haven’t heard of this guy before. Funny vid. He had me at “No way is it his first day on the job” for the guy stacking bags of the conveyer belt.

    Grade A commentary.

    Thanks for that.

  7. Thank you for introducing me to Ozzy Man. Between him and the Critical Drinker, I have lots to watch since Netflix and Hulu don’t have much interesting this month.

  10. Zaphod: Ozzie Man is very discriminatory. What’s wrong with the Miami, Venezuelan, Brazilian, or Chilean weather girls.

    His bit on the Canadian Cobra Chickens is dead on but leaves out the mess they leave behind, hip waders and a fire hose are the minimum for clean up.

  12. Andy NGO has the Wash DC Metro Police report on Antifa, and it’s shockingly realistic:

    @MrAndyNgo
    Last week the DC Metropolitan PD suffered a massive data leak after being hacked by a Russian-language syndicate. Among the leaks include law enforcement training on #antifa?s ideology and tactics. The material is surprisingly accurate. I’ll quote it here rather than screenshot:

    DC MPD: “Antifa–the movement is a conglomeration of left-wing autonomous, militant anti-fascist groups in the United States. The principal feature of antifa groups is their use of direct action.”

    DC MPD: “They [antifa] engage in varied protest tactics, which include digital activism, property damage, physical violence, and harassment against those whom they identify as fascist, racist, or on the far-right.”

    DC MPD: “They [antifa] tend to be anti-capitalist & they are predominantly far-left & militant left, which includes anarchists, communists & socialists. Their stated focus is on fighting far-right & white supremacist ideologies directly, rather than through electoral means.”

    DC MPD : “This group by far is the most violent we have dealt with over the years.”

    DC MPD: “As you all are aware during the Inauguration of President Trump this was the group that destroyed property, assaulted any Trump supporter they ran into includ[ing] the elderly. They have no moral compass on who they go after.”

    This is the key conclusion in the internal DC Metropolitan Police training material on #antifa: “If you do not believe in what they [antifa] believe in, you are a target of violence.”
    – – – –
    Whoever compiled the report understands the most important things about antifa.

    The internal training material from DC MPD on #antifa also includes various law enforcement strategies and tactics to counter them but I won’t quote here given the information may be sensitive.

  13. The US enters yet another years of its cultural Revolution. Simon Black has thoughts for today, compared to China’s
    https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2021-05-18/two-ways-push-back-against-cultural-revolution

    “It’s clear based on (recent) election results that the majority of the population opposes this cultural revolution.

    “The people who are trying to cancel Western Civilization are just a small, extremely vocal minority. The problem is, they control the media, the big tech companies, the universities, and most of the federal government, so their message seems much more popular than it really is.

    “This revolution has even spread to the military and intelligence agencies, with everyone from the CIA to US Special Operations Command prioritizing wokeness over national defense.

    “And of course, dozes of major corporations from Disney to Coca Cola have jumped on the bandwagon too.

    “History has much to teach us. And the key lesson from China’s cultural revolution is that these movements don’t suddenly disappear.”

    SO VOTE WITH YOUR MONEY! Simon Black exhorts.
