Just the last few seconds, fireworks on a small screen are tricky, so just listen to the crowd’s swelling excitement to understand how great this was.

CHOPPAR!!!

The first few moments of flight of THE MIGHTY CHOPPAR, straight out of the box, and bloody good fun. Now I just have to fix the thing that makes it go forward and back.

Life at 600 FPS.

I’m not sure how useful it is given that the trade-off for the high frame rate is terrible resolution, but it’s still fun.

Horrific… but usable.

usability

A litre of “genuine kentucky bourbon” that costs $6.99, you have to know that it’s going to be a nightmare, but hey at least it’s usable. Not like those other bourbons, the ones with the unwieldy ‘higher alcohol content’ or ‘quality’.

Who buys this shit? It’s purely for non-functional (or barely-functional) alcoholics, right? Like, the average customer who asks for this stuff also has silver paint around their mouth and nose, and reeks of an eye-watering ammonia-stench, from weeks worth of piss soaking into what remains of their clothing?

Yep, that’s the good stuff.

Well it made me laugh. Or, I mean, chuckle.

I only wish our council was so forward-thinking.

Real issues.

Problems that face ordinary citizens every single day.

Not rubbish like we suffer through with our local body politicians, arguing about Party Central for the RWC, or why they’ve been systematically dismantling and hiding all of our public art for the last few years.
