Press Release: “The Twacknostic Twacks Take Round 5, Other Teams Not As Good.”
Published by April 14th, 2008 in Pins and Needles. 0 CommentsFOR IMMEDIATE DISTRIBUTION
When the full-time whistle blew, everyone agreed that they’d witnessed a game of footy that would go down in the history books [1]. Grizzled frontline forwards were battle-wearied, sure-footed wingers were numb with fatigue, and up in the nose-bleed seats in the stands noses were bleeding, but only because of a 3rd quarter [...]

Caption Slugfest: 4 Guys and 4-Wheel Drive
Published by March 5th, 2008 in Pins and Needles. 28 CommentsOkay, I think it’s time to kick off another Caption Slugfest!
As per the very simple process established in our first slugfest, add your caption [1] for the whacky photo above in the comments section. After a reasonable period of mourning the team at Voodoologic will use cutting edge technology along with whatever their horoscope says [...]

I really like my mobile ringtone, but I’m beginning to realise that it’s causing me problems.
It’s the theme song from the Dr Who series [1], and the problem is that there is a definite ‘cool bit’ in the song and there’s no point listening to the intro if you don’t wait for the cool bit [...]

Simon Webster over at the Sydney Morning Herald is exploring the tricky and frankly unusual situation of what to do about a powerful politician who appears hell bent on keeping his campaign promises now he’s actually in office and traditionally expected to be surprised anyone took him seriously.

“Mummy, I wanna take a photo with the two monkeys!”
“Keep walking, sweetie, I’m sure I saw the ugly one on CourtTV last night!”
At this point I’d like people to understand that the t-shirt I’m wearing [1] is the world famous rhino brand from Ecko Unlimited (emphasis added).
We now return you back to your regular broadcasting, [...]

A snapshot for Murray @ Midnight to ponder upon - this is Darren Saturday hard at it during his recent educational visit to Walt Disney World…. actually not long after this shot I found myself purchasing a hand drawing of Lilo smooching Stitch for an obscene amount of moolar…. I put it down to too [...]

Well Met Sir Midnight - for it is I, Lord Darren Saturday, having returned from afar with many a treasure to share with thee… behold! Feast ye eyeballs on the ‘Jack’. It is a charmed amulet that vanquishes those foul Evil Headphone Pixies that be plaguing ye. It has little hands and arms hehehe to [...]

Heya, can you send me the names of the 3 Dandy Warhols songs you said you like? I musta made a mistake, cause I thought you maybe said “Bohemian Like You”, but you can’t have because this song sucks toenails.
Mind you, and this could be meaningful, it’s the (and I quote) “black dog litheum carbonate [...]

I think I’ve annoyed the Evil Headphone Pixies again. I’m sure the little bastards have been hiding somewhere in my bag, because every time I put my iPod in there, the headphones get knotted into an unholy mess that takes at least 20 minutes to untangle [1].
This happens every. single. time. Even if I only [...]
