I reckon the idea of the Comm games are the greatest thing ever. It's a fuckload easier to win gold medals when you tell America & China to fuck off & stay in their own country. Although the USA probably have their own "world games" involving countries like NY, Boston, Chicago, Washington, etc. Although not involving China means that the viewing audience is immediately halved, it means that we don't have to bother to hire translators (although it woulda helped even for those who spoke English, for the Opening ceremony. |

I remember when I posed as Wee Gooner he told me "If RBF saks you anything, just answer with Gilchrist". So I did, and that wasn't the answer. And our plan was foiled.

I wish I could find that 'Chopper does the Commonwealth games' thing, classic.
But anyway, anything you have to go cheer on your grandmother at isnt a sport. |

I'm surprised USA didn't win any medals in the Shooting event. They need to get some of their rappers down there.

I hate the way the media is pushing these games as some major once in a life time event when it is obivous as you said that 95% of melbournites dont give a fuck. I did laugh when it was reported that a few days before the games the commonwealth games council went into crisis mode because there was still so many unsold tickets so they made thousands of brochures to advertise the fact. |

The greatest thing about these games are that they chucked all the homeless people off the street so we don't get annoyed by stupid cunts going upto you going "Do you have a spare dollar? I need it for
But they still have poor sob's going "Big Issue. $4."

There used to be this spastic bastard in a wheelchair selling them on the cnr Collins/Russell, it was fuckin hilarious because he'd have his head to one side with drool going down the side of his face going "Three dollars. C'mon, it's three dollars!" And he'd get pissed off coz nobody would buy them.
![]() & there's this black dude who is always selling them on the tram down Brunswick st & in all the restaurants around the area, I'm always thinking " just piss off you cunt" but I just avoid contact with him & don't even look at him.

If Australia ever leaves the Commonwealth (soon I hope) then the whole thing will just fall to shit because the Games will become even more of a shitkickers event.

Even though the US has nothing to do with these games, they still get mentioned because we are just that amazing.
