Serves me right for eavesdropping on old people in a train

"... in my day we had a conscious."

He he he, old people say the darndest. It was a bit annoying though, the old people were talking so loud it was hard to concentrate on my guilt-free pasttime of setting fire to orphans.

Holy crap I'm exhausterated! Went to a lovely EP launch in Melbs last night but am still managing to put in a full workday in Brisb yesterday and today. By working, clearly I mean 'check y'all blogatches'. Too tired to make any of the sense.

It sounds like they may be the same old people who stopped the woman in front of me in the supermarket to congratulate her on her parenting skills, and then said very loudly

"Yes, well, it's good to see that SOME mothers still have some SENSE".

What a shame we can't still be feeding our kids bread and dripping, before scrubbing their bodies with lye and vinegar. That'd learn them.

Bloody old people. They obviously don't bother with being conscious anymore. Not like it'll be in OUR future days, when we'll all be wise, witty and interesting in our Depends. (Albeit a little soggy.)

Did I spell conscious correctly? I meant, like, having a good conscious with like, a little angel on your shoulder? Rather than the word for being merely awake?

Whoa! The Malaysian/Chinese people were right all along; eat brains to get smarts, eat thigh to get strong legs, eat noodles to prosper, etc.

You should have made them UNconscious.

I don't mean that really.
Yay for old people and all that.

A friend and I had a conversation recently about baking orphans into pies and selling them at bake sales. It was refreshingly guilt-free as well.

Once heard an old lady on the tram in Melbourne say that she hated federation square because it reminder her of Kramer from that "stupid American TV show Seinfield."

Funniest thing I have ever heard someone say about Fed. square.
