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.

Val Kilmer's eco-themed thrillers

Wednesday, 28 October 2009 12:39 P GMT+10
Was down at the local video store, having a squizz at all the flicks on the shelves. Saw a title that looked like a bit of a hoot called The Steam Experiment. It's about some nutty boffin who decides to show what we're all in for as the plane

Kylie and Dannii's double whammii

Wednesday, 9 September 2009 1:22 P GMT+10
Singing sisters Kylie and Dannii Minogue are both currently in serious relationships, so they're intending to get married simultaneously. I think doubling up is a fine idea. They'll certainly save a heap of moolah by doing so, and that m

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

Lohan does a Neal

Saturday, 22 August 2009 12:55 P GMT+10
Troubled starlet Lindsay Lohan left her Blackberry in some deli, and when the owner quite reasonably demanded that she show proof of ownership before he handed it back she went completely spacko. In a manner spookily reminiscent of Australia's ow

Plants attack!

Tuesday, 4 August 2009 7:41 P GMT+10
Re this silly idea that nature is mad as hell and isn't gonna take it anymore: As we all know it's at the heart of a lot of green propaganda. But it's really soaked into popular culture to a surprising extent as well.  A good example

Sacha Baron Cohen's war on everything

Tuesday, 28 July 2009 12:35 P GMT+10
The Chaser boys reckon they're waging a war on everything, but it's actually more a petty, puerile campaign against some things such as Christians, conservatives, and the idea that comedy should actually make you laugh. They're completely

JFK just won't die!

Thursday, 16 July 2009 1:29 P GMT+10
Have just been listening to a radio interview with Lamar Waldren, who has written a book about how the Mafia killed JFK. He's currently in Oz, spruiking his tome in Sydney. Amazing how people are still unearthing new information about something t

Michael Jackson gone but not forgotten

Tuesday, 30 June 2009 3:03 P GMT+10
There was always gonna be a spike in sales of Michael Jackson albums when he died, but who would have thought it would be quite so big?The Beeb reports that in the Old Dart:A total of 11 Michael Jackson or Jackson Five albums featured in the top 200.

Bye-bye Whacko Jacko

Friday, 26 June 2009 10:16 P GMT+10
I never thought Michael Jackson would live to a grand old age. But I didn't think he'd pop his clogs quite so soon. But clearly the cumulative effects of such a crazy, roller-coaster life were just too much.  As his former publicist Mich

The dumping of Amanda Duthie

Thursday, 11 June 2009 10:34 P GMT+10
The way the ABC is dealing with this Chaser sketch scandal is absurd. I mean, sacking the Head of TV Comedy because she didn't flag the sketch and refer it upwards for consideration? It's the kind of bureaucratic buck passing you might see in

Kung fu conspiracy?

Tuesday, 9 June 2009 2:18 P GMT+10
The death of David Carradine just keeps getting weirder. Now his family are saying that it wasn't auto-erotic asphyxiation that killed him. They reckon he was murdered because of his investigations into a mysterious kung fu sect. Sounds poss

The Chastened

Monday, 8 June 2009 10:45 P GMT+10
Re this cancer kids comedy kerfuffle: One of the Chaser team said "it was meant to be so over the top that people wouldn't take it seriously".  Well if you're going to do that, you have to make it crystal clear. You have to con

Susan Boyle's mental problem

Wednesday, 3 June 2009 12:52 P GMT+10
After SuBo's recent crack-up, many people have have expressed concern that she has an imaginary friend. Personally, I don't see this particular aspect of her psychological state a liability if she still wishes for a life in the public eye. Wh

Provoking the primate

Monday, 1 June 2009 12:39 P GMT+10
Despite the large numbers watching, many viewers said the latest episode of The Chaser was a real stinker. The feeling seems to be that their glory days are behind them; that they've well and truly "flown the Vatican". I reckon they'

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

Creative Sydney lauds Earth Hour and The Chaser

Friday, 22 May 2009 5:47 P GMT+10
The Chaser has gotta be one of the worst shows on the teev. It's witless, nasty and not very funny. "Stunt humour" is done very well by someone like Sacha Baron Cohen because he is genuinely duping his victims, is an accomplished actor

Logies a loser

Tuesday, 5 May 2009 9:21 P GMT+10
Didn't watch the Logies, but I keep reading about how awful Gretel Killeen was. Feel a bit sorry for her, actually.  Let's face it, the Logies will always suck a bit no matter who's hosting. They're all about television, remember

Jan the Actress to play Susan the Singer?

Tuesday, 28 April 2009 12:36 A GMT+10
There are plans afoot to turn Susan Boyle's life story into a fillum. This article suggests that fan Demi Moore might want to play her. Not gonna happen. Even if she did want the role, she'd be totally miscast. She's too gorgeous and

Comeback for Michael Barrymore?

Tuesday, 28 April 2009 12:33 A GMT+10
Semi-ancient footage has emerged of Susan Boyle being mocked by fallen TV host and comic Michael Barrymore during the taping of a talent show. This is fascinating, not least because it shows just how long the plucky singer has been trying to crack th

New look an old story

Wednesday, 22 April 2009 2:06 P GMT+10
Susan Boyle reckons she needs a makeover. I suspect it won't be long before she looks like so many other glossy celebs. And when that has happened, she will have lost what made her so unique in the first place. Kinda sad, I reckon.  Happens

Jay Leno's Susan Boyle impersonation

Tuesday, 21 April 2009 12:52 P GMT+10
The media coverage of Susan Boyle and her stunning performance on Britian's Got Talent has been overwhelmingly positive, but Jay Leno has broken ranks with an impersonation of her.  Seems to be all in good fun; not malicious. But it does pro

Susan Boyle, the new Paul Potts

Thursday, 16 April 2009 1:37 P GMT+10
Susan Boyle is a plump, dowdy 47 year old who has recently appeared on Britain's Got Talent. Not unlike the aesthetically challenged Paul Potts a coupla years back, she suddenly became extremely graceful once she sang her first note, leaving many

Fantastic Aussie doco

Wednesday, 15 April 2009 12:57 P GMT+10
For any film buff out there, you've just gotta have a look at Not Quite Hollywood. It's a rollicking doco about the much maligned "Ozploitation" flicks of the seventies and eighties.  The doco opened in the cinemas not so long

Celebrity ghost twitterers

Sunday, 12 April 2009 3:01 P GMT+10
I know celebs are generally pretty thick. But you'd think they could at least sling a few words together on Twitter from time to time. Seems a lot of them can't even do that. They have their PR staff do it for them.

The Edge of destruction

Tuesday, 31 March 2009 12:40 P GMT+10
Guitarist of the pompous rock band U2, the Edge, wants to build a spiffy house in the hills of Malibu. Bloke is forever banging on about how we should care for the environment, but his plans for the joint are not Gaia friendly.Kinda pathetic that he
