In which the pond suffers with Sharri and ScoMo ...

Standing by, standing by, the pond will now cross to the BBC World Service for its coverage ... oh wait, News 24 has already done that ...

Standing by, standing by, the pond will now cross to a gormless British theologian, who, having wasted his life on theology, rather than having done sensible things (surfing if you will), now feels he's in a position to lecture the colonials on how to live their lives ... oh wait, RN began this day that way ...

Strange, is it Easter Friday or something? There must be football in the air ...

Never mind, the last few nights the pond has caught up again with Goodfellas in high def - what a fine, epic tracking feast of wise guy fun it is, even with mum showing acting was a little beyond her - and A Serious Man.

Who knew that growing up in Bloomington, Minnesota as a Jew would be just like growing up in Tamworth as a Catholic - the lure of sex, drugs, rock 'n roll, Jefferson Airplane and F-Troop up against various voids. The miracle is that it made any money at all after that final call from the doctor and the tornado of life bearing down on us all ... Bresson couldn't be bleaker, yet they dared to call it a comedy ...

Meanwhile, in defence of the ABC, it has to be noted that the reptiles are just as lazy this day, with the savage Savva still atop the opinion page, and the bromancer still unleashing a holocaust ...

This simply won't do. Along with scoffing easter eggs and hot cross buns this day - don't give the pond any crap about waiting until the Sunday when the dough has risen - the pond wants its daily dose of insubstantial reptile fluff, and two extremely silly women gravely explaining their desire to be beaten by a stick simply won't suffice ...

How about a serve of Sharri and ScoMo? Well it's desperate times, and soon enough the front page offering by the Terror ...

... drifted down the page, to be replaced by vastly more important stories ...

But the pond was stuck with Sharri and the whining ScoMo ...

Emasculated? Did the pond miss something? Wasn't it the profoundly stupid ScoMo who kicked off the discussion with a profoundly silly idea, which directly, brazenly and openly contradicted Malware's notion that it was a "thoroughly bad idea"?

Where did that leave Malware? To fold like the pack of useless marked playing cards everyone knows he is ...

Deeply concerned that the readership should understand the situation, the Terrorists prepared a cue sheet ...

This one might have been handier ...

Amazingly, Sharri discovered signs of unrest as a result of ScoMo brazenly attempting to shirtfront his leader, and to get him to contradict himself, Donald style ...which somehow magically, mysteriously, in a transubstantive way, turned into ScoMo feeling emasculated ...

He was unhappy the gang were publicly canvassing policy measures that hadn't garnered the united support of colleagues?

More with googling, the main point being the dumb fuck leaked to the reptiles of Oz, apparently expecting everybody to gasp in awe at his wit and wisdom, and fold up like the useless pack of playing cards they are ...

To get a supportive response to that sort of ham-fisted fuckwittery, you need a simple-minded simpleton of the Sharri kind ...

Uh huh. Traditionally, Treasurers aren't supposed to be dumb fucks, and are supposed to be economically literate, but Jolly Joe Hockey probably laid that one to rest ...

ScoMo needs to be that captain of that ship? So that ship needs two captains because Captain Malware is useless?

If all this is a guide to how ScoMo's budget is going to go down, the pond must rush off to buy one of the last tickets on the Titanic ... before the doctor calls, and the tornado arrives ...

Well there's time for one last photo - how the Terrorists love their pics, and one last bit of nonsense ...

Pyne gave his view "on a housing measure"?

The poodle was giving his opinion on ScoMo's balloon about raiding super to boost Sydney housing prices even further, but by then, everybody had piled on to the balloon for a hearty discussion ...

Immigration Minister Peter Dutton has become the latest cabinet minister to indicate he opposes a proposal which would see young people given access to their super to buy a house. 
Ministers have been at odds over the proposal ahead of a meeting of the government’s razor gang in Sydney today. 
Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull yesterday cautioned against the idea, and cabinet ministers including Defence Industry Minister Christopher Pyne and now Mr Dutton have indicated this morning they oppose it. 
Others, led by Resources Minister Matt Canavan, have expressed in-principle support for a proposal that would allow young families to access super contributions for a three-year period based on their personal savings.
Treasurer Scott Morrison and key ministers responsible for housing policy, including Michael Sukkar, Angus Taylor and Zed Seselja, are believed to be in favour of the model. 
Tony Abbott has also voiced his support. (reptile source, googling required).

Et tu, Onion Muncher? Quelle surprise ...

They all piled on, but who was the fuckwit that started it? Who talked out of turn as a way of trying to roll it through?

At least it's kept the cartoonists happy ...

But while the pond is on the subject of ScoMo's epic stupidity, the Terrorists also offered this snippet ...

Oh dear, Hadders and ScoMo have had another tiff ...

Not the ABC?! He was caught talking to the ABC, the shameless liar?

And now the Onion Muncher is replacing him?

Et tu, Onion Muncher? Quelle surprise ...

And now the pond must go and get that steak out of the freezer to join the lads in the nosh-up... just because ...
