The Social Centre - December 2006

Paris Hilton Goes Shopping...

Paris Hilton
Zzzzzzzzzzzz


That’s right, plastered all over the news was Paris Hilton walking about a Sydney shopping centre amidst a scrum of seagull-like journalistic dropkicks.

There she was, walking about with stupid oversized sunnies, that stupid “honest this is my normal demeanour” pout on her face, and a little stupid minion clone with the same stupid oversized sunnies and pout.

Judging by the number of tools running about photographing her, shouting dumbarse questions at her and tripping over each other, this was obviously a MASSIVE event..
I just cannot understand why Paris is as the Sydney Morning Herald calls ‘hot property’ who deserves such attention when she ducks out to buy crap?

Firstly, she’s not hot. She’s OK, but she looks way too dopey to be classified
as ‘hot’, ‘lukewarm’, maybe, but not hot.

Secondly, she is as charming and personable as a puddle of stale cat piss. Asked by some dolt what 2007 will bring, the heir-head replied with “umm, a lot”…. What a intelligent and not-boring way to answer a question, even if the question was dull and stupid.

Finally, and most importantly, she walks about with a sense of self-importance that she really has not right to possess. To date, her biggest contribution to society is giving me material to write about.

She is spoilt, snobby, boring, dim-witted and as useless as tits on a bull.

Mothers, fathers, brothers and sisters, should your child, sibling, spouse or friend ever display any sign of interest in Paris Hilton – or show any sign of harbouring respect for Paris Hilton, you have the duty to repeatedly belt them over the head with a blunt instrument until they regain some sense - or are declared mentally damaged, which is an acceptable excuse.

How to be Pretentious

Everybody loves people who are pretentious. There are no warmer, sociable folk than pompous, self-absorbed money-wavers. So in order to become pretentious, you must obey these eight simple rules:

1. Every item you own must not be referred to by its actual name, but by it’s brand. For instance, you don’t drive a car; you drive a BMW. You don’t wear shoes, you wear Gucci’s, you are not carrying a handbag, you’re carrying a Prada. Pretentious people always call things by their brand unless of course it is a cheap and utterly embarrassing brand

Global Warming

Isn’t it strange how politicians and the broad public only seem concerned about things as they happen? For instance, while fuel prices were low, nobody cared about fuel prices. Instead of thinking “It’s a good thing fuel is cheap at the moment, because it’s likely it will increase,” everybody was taking it for granted. As soon as fuel prices (inevitably) increased, everyone shat themselves and panicked like startled antelope. Where’s the foresight people? When things are good, we should know that it could be worse, and strive to keep them good.

Pollution
There's another 4 deg.C
Which brings me to global warming. Very smart people in big white coats (scientists) have been telling very sweaty people in ill-fitting suits (politicians) that the global warming phenomenon is going to happen for twenty-odd years. It was all dismissed as doomsday rubbish. No matter what striking evidence that scientists could throw at the politicians, they were having none of it. Now, global warming is high on the agenda, because, surprise surprise, the effects are beginning to be felt

4WD Drivers

Hummer H2
Manliness comes standard

If there is one scum that the world can do without, it’s the Hummer. A hit in the USA, they are planning to bring the king of big, ugly useless vehicles to Australia. I for one am not looking forward to it, because I absolutely hate 4wds. The Hummer is the ultimate 4wd that is never meant to venture off the road, and I know that rednecks and bogans are bursting at the seams in excited anticipation of the release of this thing in Australia.

Speed Cameras

Speed Camera
Smile!, you're $200 poorer

From time to time, I feel like donning my current affairs cereal box-journalism cap and delve into the deep issues. Right now, I’m focusing my attention of speed cameras. I don’t know anybody who believes that are effective methods of promoting road safety.

Greatest Cover Songs Ever

I love cover songs. Only the good ones of course. I like when a band takes a song and does their best to pay tribute to the original, but at the same time tries to erase all memory of the original. There are countless cover songs that make me rather ill, which is another post for a another time, but when it works, its a magic musical moment. Here are some handpicked examples of covers that worked:

Jimi Hendrix

It's hot

The Sun
The Sun...it's hot.

It’s summer, and the mercury is nudging the mid-30’s in my particular neck of the woods. Sweltering heat, buzzing insects and the distinct smell of bushfire on the breeze are sure signs that it is indeed, hot.
