This little gem was too good to pass up;

A bit of grammar and spelling and a demonstration of at least a basic grasp of Australian history (more specifically its chronology) will be necesary to pass this course.

Bloody good laugh though wouldn’t ya say ?

Pretty soon I’ll dedicate a category to posts like this, because I want to be more active in making them… there are just too many piss funy fruit loops on the world wide web that sombody shouldn’t be mocking them at least semi-regularly.

This dude is a prat, but reading his shit makes me laugh a lot, give it a look and see what you think.

On a side note this blog will be closing down in T minus pretty soon, I’ve got my own space all lined up, a brand new wordpress 2.01 install to play with and, with any luck a new place of my own to customise as I like (and mock losers like old mate here to my hearts content). See ya there (I’ll let ya know the URL when it is up and running, still not sure then that’ll be - but I wouldn’t leave the house if I were you, you wouldn’t want to miss it).

A Dutch Blogger has recently started a photoshop ‘parody Mohammed’ competition which, it would seem, is basically trying to see who can make the most offensive pictorial of the Muslim prophet Mohammed … and my god do they go at it.

Do not click if you are easily offended by gratuitous takings of the piss or liberal use of the Dutch language (most pics speak for themselves).

Obviously this is going too far, but then again so is burning down an embassy or murdering a priest, all’s fair in love and war no?

I’m of the mind that I should head down to my local mosque (if there is one around here - there must be I’d rekon) and try and get myself a little bit of exposure to western Muslim culture and thinking, because I’m getting the impression that since all my education on Muslim ideology comes from the right wingers in Syria via the western media maybe I do not have a clear picture of what a ‘real’ Muslim is like.

We’ll see … I doubt they’d let a white boy in anyway.

Just a bit of slightly irreverent humour for a monday afternoon.

hat tip to mum
