Three syllable words don’t make for good chanting.Went to my first protest today. It was kind of exciting, big screens, lots of banners, chanting, drums and flags. Quite moving really to see a bunch of big beefy tradesmen joining forces with a few greeny leftys, throw in the nurses and midwives along with some middle aged hippy types, all the major church leaders and most importantly Tim from Big Brother and you have yourself a top notch protest (well apparently it wasn’t quite as good as the anti-war one, but I thought it was pretty impressive).
I never realised that there were so many political bikies, but naisays:
NTEU = nerds
MTU = bikies
So surely when you get nerds and bikies united together they are a force to be reckoned with? Well I guess we’ll see.
In other news..Sometimes despite thinking you are the observant one, you are actually the one being observed.
Met some guy at supermild the other night and he referred to a brief encounter with tg at the Grace one night as ‘incident no. 14 - the straw that broke the camels back’ in reference to his relationship at the time. Tg said all she did was say hello.
He went on to ask us the following question
‘So what is a girl looking for in a guy? Cause basically guys are looking for two breasts and a vagina’
So I said
‘So if you see girls as just two breasts and a vagina, when you look in the mirror do you just see a dick?’
