Local Mensa Delegate

No matter how many conversations you have in a day/month/epoch, you will never hear the following phrases.

"The public transport system is - if anything - too efficient."

"Gracious me, that new reality TV show is cerebral."

"I appreciate it that my neighbour waits for every Saturday morning to apply his leaf-blower to the nature strip."

The latter of the above, are words that will never, ever be uttered by the Velvet Trousered Man.

Infact, every time I hear the aforementioned device, I experience a compelling desire to insert it into a place where there would almost definitely be no leaves to noisily blow.

Australia has experienced drought conditions for the last 7 - 8 years and as a result, most capital cities are on water restrictions. So how does the genius 2 doors down respond to the environmental predicament?


He installs a swimming pool. Brilliant.

His car screams "Bogan," while his kids just scream. Loud and long. 

These annoyances may seem trivial, but if you add enough of them up, they grow exponentially. Annoyances are like that.

Thank God he's too stupid to have friends.

Swimming pools here in Utah are pretty stupid, too. Not only is it a desert, the winters are killer. You could only use a pool two months of the year anyway! :-)
