In which the pond joins the bromancer in forgetting about the Anglosphere now there's a chance to play Deputy Sheriff again ...


The pond might be mistaken but there seemed to be hint of mockery in the Malware haters at the Terror in that front page. A joke meets a joke and there's plenty to joke about ...

No doubt they towed the line like good little Murdochians in the copy, but over at the lizards of Oz, the bromancer was in a state of undiluted ecstasy, with thoughts of the Anglosphere banished at the chance to play Deputy Sheriff once again ...

The pond couldn't help but notice the poignant juxtaposition of the wildly excited bromancer, and talk of the bromance blossoming again ...


The Oz editorialist was in a similar state of unbridled lust ...


Deals artfully with a crazy ...!

Now never mind the absurd trolling embodied in "welcome meeting of grown-ups", as if the Donald shows any signs of being grown up, the bromancer's actual google splash attempted a little sobriety ...


But the piece itself was beyond the valley of hysteria, and as a bonus - the pond is aware that the bromancer is one of the all-time pond reader favourites - it runs on at interminable length, like nattering "Ned" on speed ...


Now from the get go, the pond realises there are some who might hark back to Warren Zevon's old song as a way of summarising the bromancer in full flight ...


Indeed, indeed, and talk about rubbing the Donald all over the chest, as this excitable boy kept scribbling ...


Yes, never mind if it's irredeemably hokey, that's precisely the way that metaphysical magic of the bromancer kind can see redemption ...

You see, we're back ...


Ah the glory days, the critical importance, and didn't that US-Australia trade treaty work out a treat ... not to mention the core critical importance of getting into Iraq, making a total mess of the middle east, and doing pretty much the same for Afghanistan ...

But sssh, the pond must move on quickly, because the bromancer has much to say and takes an interminable amount of time saying it ... because we're dealing with a stupefying, staggering success of cosmic proportions ...


Alas, alack, poor old useless Poms. 

Was it only a few days ago that the bromancer was waxing lyrical about the sublime significance and importance of the Poms in the Anglosphere? Didn't he scribble how "Great Britain is still Australia's influential friend"?

Why they couldn't invent an app, let alone an intertubes designed to ruin the Chairman's business model ...

Useless, irrelevant Poms. Oh sure once they were leaders and the useless Canucks, Kiwis and potato eaters were followers, but just a few days later, please make way for the Aussies, oi, oi, oi ...


The Donald's even praised Australia's healthcare system? But hasn't he just introduced the best healthcare system into the United States, with everyone covered and for a most modest stipend?

Never mind, at last a meaningful role has been restored to this great nation, and we stand ready to embark on the next successful war ...


Well pardner that just about wraps it up, it's time to hightail it out of here, with just a last ecstatic gobbet to soak up ...

Remember, you don't have to take anything that the bromancer says at face value to find reading him great value, great comedy, and a great way to clear the mind, and introduce a numbing void. 

He's such a provincial suck that he'll produce exceedingly sucky outlandish rhetoric to suit his American owner, pretty much about anything at any time, including the drop of a hat ...


As always, after feasting on a bromancer piece bursting at the seams with an abundance of hysteria, adjectives and stupidity, the pond always likes to soak up a few cartoons like a sorbet designed to cleanse the palate and introduce a hint of the real world ...

Cue Rowe, with more Rowe here, and the Pope, with more papal insights here ...

  1. Hi Dorothy,

    “He's such a provincial suck that he'll produce exceedingly sucky outlandish rhetoric to suit his American owner”

    I think the modern term nowadays is “cock holster”.

    Anyway the really important meeting yesterday wasn’t with a nonentity like Trumble but with somebody who wields real power;

  2. The photo says it all, Trump has the face grimace of "Who the fuck are you, do I know you?"
    Malcolm has the shit eating grin of a flunkey whilst his free hand is rubbing away at his balls like an over excited adolescent.

  3. "Every bit of cultural cringe evident among so many Australian faux strategic analysts"

    Takes one to know one, Bro.....

  4. The Bromancer sayeth: "... Kim Beazley, the most strategically sagacious senior Australian politician of the past 40 years, wrote in a recent essay: "Without our joint collaboration (with the US), Australia does not have an affordable defence."

    Defence against whom ? For what and when ? Does Kimmy (and hence the Bromancer) think Australia is under imminent threat of invasion by a foreign army ? Which one - and with what maritime equipment ? You can't just sail a few boats over to make a successful invasion - the days of the Norman invasion are long gone (think Mongolian invasion of Japan and Spanish Armada instead). Remember what it took for Allied troops to successfully invade Normandy in WWII.

    And if it isn't an actual invasion, then what ? Nukes from North Korea ? How exactly does our alliance with the US give us an "affordable defence" against that - or indeed any defence at all against that ?

    The other thing I just can't work out is the frequently raised prospect of a China-USA war - if we're not simply talking about nuclear armed ICBMs, just where would that happen ? Would China invade the US or vice versa ? If not, then where exactly would this "war" take place ? Would China perhaps invade Australia just to suck the US into a land war ? In other words, it's our "alliance" with the US that leads Australia to be invaded - and if the Chinese did invade Australia, would the US actually respond other than with disapproving words ?
