“The world’s largest passenger will arrive in Melbourne on Monday.“
– front page of The Age.
Do you think they meant “largest passenger plane” or is Bubba, complete with a thickshake I.V. and 20kg of cheeseburgers in excess baggage, hopping off the plane? ๐
Hip, you never said you were coming back yet?!
B1tch.
My new starvation diet combined with gym/running and large doses of cheap amphetamines will have me anorexic quicker than your tubby arse can run a 10k.
Vicious when I don’t sleep aren’t I?
Hmmm, you’ll be anorexic within 43 minutes?
Hehehe you forgot how quickly this tubby arse can run, didn’t ya?!
No, I know how fast you can run, that’s why I used the metaphor above.
The "tubby arse" bit was included because I’m sick of fat jokes and needed to throw one back.
Is there a aero version of a train "gunzel"? Sheesh, we had plenty of ’em here in Melboring this week.
IT’S A BIG PLANE, action-packed commentary of endless tech specs followed by traffic jams to view the fugging thing. wacko, are we excited yet?
Something got your Goat(tm) cfsmtb? I thought there was always traffic jams there anyway.. sigh.. feckin’ cars. I don’t mind doing a bit of plane spotting but I’m not gonna go out of my way to do it.
I remember when Dad used to drive us as kids out to the airport and we got to explore an army helicopter and a Hercules. Then there was that time we were stopping cars on the Calder Hwy because the trainee army parachutists were getting blown, out of control, across the road!
Had to look "gunzel" up, skyooz ma ignuhrants:

Just in case seeing the Airbus A-380 wasn’t enough, there were TV specials about how wings get made in this country, the fuselage there, etc, then they have to ship it, ferry it, cart it, squeeze it through a small town… blah blah. etc. Mum even quoted to me "It uses one litre per second!" Cool. I still don’t think it beats a top fueller. Talking of which, I found out the Australia’s record holder (Darren Morgan driving Lammattina’s Top-Fueller) used to work for Lower Murray Water… it’s a small world. Or Mildura’s just a small town.
Mildura just breeds fast petrol heads.
Drags, speedway, moto-cross, motorbike speedway, enduro rallying. You name it and I bet you’ll find a successful Mildurian in there..
As much of a car-hating, clean transport kinda freak that I am, I still love motorsport, drag racing especially. F1 can get stuffed, but there’s nothing like the smell of melting tyres and burnt methanol or the end-over-end flip of an 800hp Sprinter.. ๐
*Top-Fuel flashbacks* mmm…
Yep. that’s right. I haven’t been to see the sprint cars for a while. They’re fucking mean. I like them. Hooray for semi-violent (the crashes at least) motorsport.
