Of late theres no hiding the fact that the beloved b1rd has been getting very furious with the world at large(more furious than usual). So angry infact that he's been inspired to write a regular rant session for this site. Hopefully he will feel better after venting his furious spleen. In no particular order these are the issues and stuff that are pissing me off: * Kevid Rudd the low dog * American politics invading my television * The rental crisis caused by many factors such as greedy curry munchers and gooks coming here to escape their disgusting countries * warren1984 * Unskilled blue collar cashed up bogan baby boomers (UBCCUBBB-CUB's) who are now rich because they bought a shithole in the suburbs for 40 grand 10 years ago which is now worth half a mill * Unskilled yet highly overpaid pencil pushers and bureaucrats (parasites) * Curry munchers and gooks who made their fortunes by running factories full of slaves, coming to this country and showing NO respect for our easy going culture of sports, drinking and violence * corporate welfare * the ABC 'learning' centre bailout (25 million pissed into the wind) * Krudds stupid waste of millions of dollars building the mostly static grocerywatch, petrolwatch websites * whingeing boongs * Krudds sucking upto the homeless people, and now that he's in office he's done nothing to reverse the millions of dollars that howard sucked out of the public housing system. A disabled person such as myself has to wait ten years for a place, or at least 2 years if its an 'emergency' which you have to be homeless to apply for.
I could go on.. FURIOUS! so furious, lost for words... Anyway I'll sit here and brood over this for a bit, hopefully my creative venom will start to flow. Be Right Back. heh |

Props to the b1rd.
What is particularly infuriating about the baby boomers is that all government policy is oriented towards keeping them in the lifestyle to which they've become accustomed, at the expense of everyone else. Such as Krudd has increased immigration intake to 204,000, and this is not simply for the usual reasons of dismantling western civilisation and importing more ALP voters, but also to maintain high property values by ensuring that all supply is rapidly soaked up by artificial demand. This way baby boomers, a failed generation if there ever was one, have their retirement plans assured as the properties they bought for a song back in the day maintain value. Never mind that younger generations are doing it tough with high rent and have to be a slave for life if they ever want to own a house.
an addition
The arseholes in the McMansion estates.
They caused the credit crisis both here and abroad, taking out major loans that they cannot afford for their gigantic houses and two or three cars and only just keeping up with the interest payments.
Particularly infuriating (and rarely discussed) is their nouveau riche housing estates that continue the urban sprawl into former farmland, with the now high petrol prices they can no longer afford an hour plus drive into work and so demand the federal government cut excise tax (shifting the tax burdon onto the less fortunate) and that state governments build up public transport and infrastructure into their remote enclaves. In Melbourne the formerly regional Melton and Sunbury lines are being electrified to placate these leeches and a new line is being considered to be built between the Werribee and Melton lines.
Meanwhile Rowville and Doncaster have been waiting for trainlines since 1971.
Real reasons for McMansions
Well firstly we don't really have a credit crisis in Australia as yet, interest rates are still on the low side, and foreclosures are still not that common. This may change however. As for the credit crisis abroad this has multiple causes, with the flashpoint being the sub-prime lending we've all heard so much about, and that really didn't have much to do with McMansions.
As for why Australia has had a proliferation of McMansions, which I assume you object to for aesthetic reasons (as do I), the cause of this is a feminised society where weak, pussy-whipped, men must obey their thirty-something princesses and work their lives away to provide them with a castle in the suburbs. She has reached that time in life now where it is time to settle down and have one or two children with IVF assistance after chlamydia and other STDs have ravaged her uterus. So of course with two kids she'll need at least a seven bedroom house, two for the kids, the other five as entertainment areas for her and her mangy divorcee friends to come around and discuss great literature like The DaVinci Code.
As for transport issues, she must have a new Landcruiser or other 4WD to ferry the kids around to violin lessons, football practice, and self-esteem class. Why doesn't she get a Toyota Hilux, or station-wagon, which is cheaper, lower mileage, and more practical for such a purpose? Because driving a Hilux around will only advertise the fact that she is a married mother, while in a Landcruiser she can maintain plausible deniability of marriage and still attract attention from other men.
This is all very expensive, but if they can't afford it, no problem, her slave will just work an additional ten years to pay off more interest.
Men left to their own devices are very happy to live in dirty hovels, like they did in Fight Club. A true man requires no luxuries at all, and just wants a bit of space to set up his power tools, scientific instruments, and his gun rack.
