Una'strayan

I don't use Twatter or Facebag, so I don't know how widely circulated this thing is, but I've been informed by some of the locals out here that the latest big online controversy is over this video of some bloke giving an overly-aggressive roo a swift bop on the snout.

Apparently some cunts have even petitioned the guy's employer to have him sacked. What the fuck—when did whinging to somebody's boss—because you don't approve of something they do in their personal lives—become a thing people do in this country? Christ almighty, this is why it pays to be anonymous on the internet.

All I can say is thank fuck there were no mobile phones or social media around when I was a teenager, since a lot of my time was spent doing pretty much exactly what those fellas are doing right there—and worse. Actually, I should see about doing some illustrated posts when I get home (oh, home sweet home).

Oh, as an added bonus, here's a version of the video narrated by that bloke who Melba put me onto during this year's run of Game Of Thrones. Enjoy.

I didn't realise there's been a backlash, and I am on FB.

I think this guy's actions were more than justified. These people trying to get this guy fired are probably NOT Australian. We KNOW how agressive a big red male can be.

Suze, I hope you're right about these clowns being foreigners.

Yeah, I probably should be giving city-bred Aussies more credit than that.
