In which the pond does a bumper Friday book for boys with Moorice, Ramesh and more ...


Sadly the pond is off to the bunker again today and has only one post in it, but as a result, the pond is determined to make it a bumper issue, one that will make all members of the deploratariat proud, and what better way to start than with the infallible Pope featuring the immortal revolutionary  onion muncher (and more Pope here) ...

A knighthood for all the anti-elitists standing to arms! Sirs and madams, please join the vanguard ...

Now before getting fully underway, the pond thought it necessary to establish a tranquil mood.

The pond understands most men favour a Frank Sinatra tune, a nice silk dressing gown with a cravat, a stylish cigarette holder, and a Noel Coward leer, but the pond's idea of mood-setting is to read an editorial to be found at the Global Times here ...


Ah, that's a relief. The Chinese media (and possibly the Chinese government that owns the rag) think it's a gigantic media conspiracy.

Now who could possibly be anything other than relaxed by all that talk of an all-out trade war?

And then having set a relaxed, seductive atmosphere, what better way to achieve a smooth sweet seduction than to showcase the immortal Moorice,  a match for any gentleman with his stylish bedside manner and soothing insights ...



Well that won't be the last time this day when the irony of 'leets blathering about 'leets thrusts itself into the world like a wretched Macbethian joke untimely ripped from the womb, but enough of 'leetists, drum roll please Mr Coward, let's roll up the sleeves and get down with Moorice ...


Now there's nothing for the pond to do here, except move amongst party-goers, quietly murmuring "having fun yet?" and "would you like another drink?"

After all, anyone who can mourn the loss of the right to go poofter bashing is surely the sort of mad uncle anyone would want at their party ... what did happen to the traditional value of necking blacks?


That "Or will he?" is tremendous, a failure of nerve on the part of the mad uncle.

It seems it's only just dawned on loon Moorice that in a few months he won't have Obama to kick around anymore. He'll actually have what he wished for, and that will be the full and fruity Donald.

Oh sure he can go on blaming Obama, and murmuring in weird paranoid tones of persecution, with talk of authoritarian establishments using undemocratic means - as opposed to using Putin, wikileaks and the FBI, but is this the first sign that perhaps even Moorice has got a strangely hirsute tiger by the tail?

But as this post is all the pond can manage this day, and as we promised a bumper book of 'leetest blather about 'leets...


Sorry, there were bumper books for girls, but the queue for girls to have their pussies groped is over there ... please make your way quietly to the line, and remember no squeaking.

The pond perforce must continue on with fairy stories for triumphant boys ...



Now there are many ironies in this, apart from the obvious ones ...


There's also a good chance that a Ph.D. is no guarantee against a stupid man recognising that many would judge him to be part of the stupid Canberra 'leets ...


This is exceptionally rich stuff, and before we proceed to the finish line, perhaps we should learn a little more about this Ramesh Thakur ...


Uh huh, he's a 'leet Canberra academic, extremely anxious to impress the world with his many 'leet credentials, and bizarrely he's supposed to have something to do with nuclear non-proliferation, apparently not having caught up with the news that the Donald thinks that the more nukes in the world, the merrier it will be ...

Now only a foolish futtock of the first water would, from a Canberra eerie, blather on about the 'leets and the need to drain the Canberra swamp, so let's see what sort of most excellent futtock this Thakur proves to be ...


Yes, that'll do it ... here's the pay rate for the ANU - you can find it in full, with other details here ...


A clue - fellows and associate professors are usually reckoned to be in the level C or level D categories, and don't forget to throw in a handsome 17% superannuation per annum package ...

Marvellous. And yet all that ripe talk of self-serving 'leets and the need to drain the Canberra swamp ... as opposed to those who drained the Canadian swamp as might be read about in this pdf of the investigation into the termination of Dr. Ramesh Thakur as director of the Balsillie School of International Affairs ...

Weird, weird places, these festering academic swamps ...

And for those inclined to wonder why damned pesky furriners don't get back to where they belong, please, oh please, do remember 18C ... it might be all that's left standing between the newly empowered rabid demagogic populism of soft fascism, onion munchers, Canberra 'leets, and the rest of the world ...

And speaking of this, the lizards of Oz are today in full cry about the damned blacks - oh how they made life hard for noble Leakians, and how they deserve payback - but this is what caught the pond's eye, especially in the context of recent stories about how Facebook was the source of much nonsense during the recent US elections ...


No need to head to Facebook when you've got the lizards of Oz to read, and then perforce heading off to read Amanda Meade here ... to read about the many distortions, lies and shameless errors peddled by the reptiles of Oz ...

And that's the end of this bumper book for boys ... the pond apologises for that girlie Meade somehow ending up in the mix, and promises to do better next time - the world should be a locker room for boys - and now all that's left is a cartoon about the way a simple-minded Australian media was transfixed and befuddled by days by a locker room story of golfing buddies ...

Is it any wonder the pond has taken to heading off to a bunker on some days?

Meanwhile, on with the Rowe cartoon, and as always, more Rowe here ...


Oh dear, who is that Malware dick licker offering to polish the balls?

And speaking of rectal pumps, as the pond must, we do hope that people are staying abreast of US political commentary ...


And now to an explanation for anyone who might - some might not - see a new notice on the pond. The pond has had nothing to do with it - it was imposed in the usual way by the mighty overlord blogger, but being free has a price, and it's usually to do with a lack of freedom ...


Stupid people, doing stupid things for people too stupid to learn how to treat cookies via their browser ... for example, for anyone using Chrome ...

  2. "Or will he?" It is the Murdoch way - to leave out to cover all possibilities. If the Trump blimp explodes, Murdoch will say he told us so. He has done the same for Climate Change, for example.
