Die, Fluffy Wuffy, Die!
NOT MEANT TO BE TAKEN LITERALLY! If this blog is anything it's sit-down comedy. I don't break news stories. I rant, growl, quack on and joke about them. If you can't see where this blog is coming from you're an utter peckerhead.

Golliwogs now an endangered species

Monday, 19 October 2009 1:48 P GMT+10
The Hey Hey It's Saturday! blackface furore made paranoid shop owners move their golliwogs to the back shelves. Understandably, some think the reaction is unjustified. Store owner Diarne Revelle is quoted in the story above: "Kids aren't

It's because they suck

Sunday, 23 August 2009 2:17 P GMT+10
Still more agonizing over our pathetic film "industry". Here a hack poses the old question: Why can't Aussie movies pull a crowd when they are so critically lauded?Answer: because they suck. See, Australian film-makers don't make mo

Chasing politically correct approval

Monday, 20 July 2009 1:00 P GMT+10
More dreary PC "satire" from the Chaser boys: In a skit making reference to Kevin Rudd's populist comments about the ban on climbing Uluru, they tried to scale the spire of the church he worships at.  There's that old law in ac

Peter Whittle, commentator

Saturday, 30 May 2009 1:26 P GMT+10
Just heard this bloke being interviewed on the Beeb's show Politics UK. He and a muso called James McMillan were talking about the stultifyingly politically correct atmosphere in Britain's Artsville. It was interesting stuff and I'll pos

Gay jokes on The Footy Show

Thursday, 28 May 2009 12:48 P GMT+10
Matthew Johns, the boofhead the squitterati love to hate, is embroiled in a new controversy. This time, he's provoked the ire of the gay community with a "homophobic" skit on The Footy Show. Says gay rights activist Gary Burns:“Yo

Everyone's offended!

Friday, 22 May 2009 12:37 P GMT+10
The Matthew Johns scandal reveals how morally confused Australia is now.  And here's another example: Not long ago, Christians were deeply offended by posters of the Virgin Mary sporting a cranial penis. Not to be outdone, Aussie prossies ha

Selective sensitivities

Still on the subject of humor and political correctness:ABC management courageously stands by their purported satirists from The Chaser when they mock Catholics. But it goes all squeamish when other groups are offended. I reckon it's fine if you&

Nanny nation's "non-jobs"

Tuesday, 21 April 2009 1:14 P GMT+10
Politically correct Britain gets sillier and sillier. Take, for instance, these absurd taxpayer-funded positions.Whoever dreamed these crazy gigs up is just askin' for it! (Though Poms intending to crack jokes about them should be careful about h

Jackman and Kidman's very Australian hypocrisy

Thursday, 18 December 2008 3:39 P GMT+10
Nicole Kidman's windy faux pas on German TV and the squitterati's subsequent silence reveal several things about our craven PC culture.   Firstly, both she and Hugh Jackman are hypocrites. I mean, you'd think that being so culturall

Truth hurts

Tuesday, 26 August 2008 8:39 P GMT+10
One thing I've learned over the years is that if you say something that really gets up the nostrils of fluffy wuffies, there's a pretty good chance you've nailed it. Lefty PC types can't stand most things that normal, good-hearte

Nanny state to get nannier?

Wednesday, 20 August 2008 2:16 P GMT+10
West Oz Labor is a very strange tribe. See, if they win the upcoming election, they're gonna introduce a ban on outdoor smoking, even on the beach! Incredible. But also amazing that they would make such intentions public considering how close the

Nyoongar Patrol

Here's a contemporary paradox: You're deemed a "racist" if you point out that Aborigines are disproportionately represented in crime statistics. You're considered even more "racist" if you endorse a compassionate "

Sexism, schmexism

Saturday, 2 August 2008 11:47 A GMT+10
Sam Newman has provoked the ire of the squitterati again. Says that a comment he made about a female Tasmanian politician was not meant in the way it has been taken. I suspect he's probably being genuine. (He did do that counselling course t

Clint Eastwood remains unforgiven, in the line of fire

Wednesday, 21 May 2008 12:24 A GMT+10
Definition of artistic independence? Being able to annoy both liberals and conservatives in equal measure. Clint Eastwood definitely qualifies. The mere premise of his fillum Letters from Iwo Jima got right up the nostrils of spunky right-winger Debb

Same ol' bleat from arty wankers

Thursday, 3 April 2008 10:54 A GMT+10
This is pretty funny.  Peter Garrett, looking creepily like a vampire in this snap (appropriate considering the context), reckons that the arts can bestow economic benefits on society.  Well, maybe they could if the public didn't stay a

Basil's brush with the law

Sunday, 23 March 2008 2:57 P GMT+10
Latest victim of the crazy politically correct laws in place in Britain:  A TV puppet called Basil Brush.

Gap between truth and rhetoric

Thursday, 20 March 2008 11:02 P GMT+10
In yet another meaningless and symbolic act Kevin Rudd has pledged to "bridge the gap" between Aborigines and whites in Australia.  Yeah, sure.   At the same time, he's actively widening the gap with the re-introduction of th

Astonishing! Cant-sodden Melbourne festival produces actual comedy!

Wednesday, 19 March 2008 12:46 P GMT+10
In a clear case of what po-mo quackademics would call "subverting the dominant paradigm" the Melbourne International Comedy Festival has finally produced something genuinely cack-worthy.  Not intentionally, but.  It'

Female Jesus reveals naked hypocrisy

Tuesday, 11 March 2008 11:38 A GMT+10
The fluffy wuffies of Artsville are sooo predictable ... Latest tiresome, unimaginative attempt to provoke Christians: a play by the Happy Dagger theatre company (whoever they are) in which Christ on the cross is played by a chick, with her kit off.

Iowahawk's divine comedy

Thursday, 14 February 2008 12:03 A GMT+10
For yonks I've heard it said that satire is a leftist medium.  That's partially true in my country of Oz -- not because lefties are more talented in this regard -- simply that by dominating the media as thoroughly and ruthlessl

A sad, sorry day for Indigenous Australians

Wednesday, 13 February 2008 2:15 P GMT+10
Here's something that perfectly illustrates the pointlessness of today's apology:  When Brendon Nelson had the temerity to mention the present horrors going on in Aboriginal communities, the assembled crowd heckled him and turned their b

A cloistered intellect

Friday, 8 February 2008 11:24 P GMT+10
Daffy Dr Rowan Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury, has created a helluva ruckus with his comments about Sharia law being "unavoidable" in the UK.Not surprisingly, he was an academic for over two decades.

Paddy McGuinness

Sunday, 27 January 2008 7:58 P GMT+10
Just learned of the passing of fluff-bashing legend Paddy McGuinness.  Read one of his excellent pieces only a week or so back, actually.  Had no inkling that he was even unwell.  Met him once.  I was on a bus to Balmain and

Democrat race gets racial

Tuesday, 15 January 2008 6:05 P GMT+10
So the Obama camp is accusing the Clinton camp of playing the race card.  Soon the Clinton camp will accuse the Obama camp of playing the gender card (if they haven't already).  Knowing how much they agonize over these issues, Demo

Santa malled; woman charged

Saturday, 22 December 2007 11:51 A GMT+10
Recently I wrote about how tiny-minded feminists had denied Father Christmas his iconic chuckle.  Looks like he's lost his sense of humour as well.  See, he claims a woman groped him while he was appearing in a shopping mall.&
