Oh this wacky little country of mine...


So, over the course of what would have been a very boring fucking Friday (apart from now, seeing as a liberal amount of leftover vodka is being introduced) I have noted the following two titbits of what one could pass off as 'news' from this country of which I claim citizenship by default. And yes, I am aware that it is Sunday today, but as you can see from the below post, I obviously had more important things to be doing. Anyhow...

"Offensive T-shirt banned"

After a little bit of snooping around I found that this is the shirt in question. Which I'm pretty sure has been around for quite a few fucking years now, and they choose to ban in now? 'Fuck me Jesus', fine. 'Christian Scum Die Bleeding', fine. Jesus is a Cunt? Err, no? One would think that if you're coming from such a perspective that all three would be as bad as each other, all of which containing to some extent or another, blasphemous references, strong language, and 'satanic imagery'. I'm sure there'd be quite a few more out there too. But you could all potentially see that "coming down the street", who knows how many fucking people have seen me walking around in public with the 'Christian scum' shirt, and only one person has taken "serious" offence to it (and all they could offer was a 'Jesus loves you' behind my back while they were walking off in the another direction). Plus, besides ALL of that. Cradle of Filth? They were considered offensive years ago, much the same as that shirt. They're pretty banal these days, so I don't get the big drive to ban their merchandise after the fact. Unless you happen to live in a small island nation on the arse end of the world that, even today, in the age of advanced information technology are STILL so behind in the times that this shit is new enough to make a big shit stink out of.

Of which I seem to have only contributed to. Fuck...



"Drug survey shows NZ slipping into 'world's gutters' - expert"

Wow, imagine that, ANOTHER negative drug story in the New Zealand Herald. Of course the 'expert' in this story just happens to be a complete fuckin' tosser. I'm pretty sure most things out there can be addictive if you're susceptible enough to it, and you can't make most things illegal (or can you?). And I'm sure those of you abroad out there would really like being a part of the 'worlds gutter', but according to this fuckin' genius' take on those study results the worlds gutter seems to consist of the U.S., with NZ descending in at a close second and any other country with a 'high' percentage of recorded drug use (because I'm sure EVERYONE is absolutely open with the details about their illicit drug use all of the time). I think there's a little bit more that contributes into making a particular country into a complete fucking hell-hole rather than substance use and abuse issues (because lets face it, crime statistics would reallyjust disappear globally overnight if all the drugs were to vanish off the face of the planet). Seems like more blatant scaremongering to me, or the whining of a complete douche bag who thinks he knows better than us.
But yeah, that aside. It seems this country seems to know how to fuckin' party. Which is pretty good, considering the amount of stupid shit that goes on in this place that really isn't much of anything compared to other places in the world. So you'd think more people would need to learn to loosen up a little with their respective vices. Except the kids. Drugs are for grown ups. Piss off back to bed. Now!
