Inching home tonight in the bumper to bumper, I had my normal entertainment release on - MTR. A station so bereft of listeners my mere tuning in increased the audience by 20%. MTR is great lulzy fun though, a bunch of dudes who don't believe in much of anything - except lining their own pockets - lead a group of buffoons around by the nose all day. What's particularly fantastic is how those buffoons have learned all the lingo and now parrot it back when they call in raging against the latest Labor/Green screw up - "socialism" "redistribution of wealth" "moozlums on boats" "dey took er jerbs". Don't get me wrong, I'm no fan of Labor, nor Green, nor Liberal. I have nothing but contempt for most politicians, I'm a fair guy on that front - I hate everyone equally. What gives me the giggles though, is how easily these people slip into parody - kind of like some unhinged lunatic on a blog ranting about real estate... What kept me ...
