I don’t think your drummer’s heavy double-kick patterns really work with your band’s Bjork cover.

Mr. Squiggle with Miss Jane.
Complete with excellent puns (I won’t ruin them for you!) and a “hurry up!” from Blackboard.

It takes him a while to start up, but once he does, oh boy.
I win at boys.
- Me: You know, *boyfriend* is the first guy I've dated who has actually had a job!
- BFF's aunt: What, do you hang around Centrelink constantly?
- BFF: No, just musicians.
- BFF: He has a southern cross tattoo.

The dog does a shit and lays down in it, much to the chagrin of its owner.
Oh man, I hate myself for laughing at this.
“Jacaranda Rain”
What a beautiful mess.
Looks like Sydney to me.

One of Australia’s favourite puppets, Mr Squiggle, turns 50 today.
The pencil-nosed moon-dwelling marionette who brought joy to generations of Australian children debuted on ABC television in black and white on July 1, 1959.
The character was created by cartoonist and puppeteer Norman Hetherington, who would take children’s scribble and then craft it into a meaningful drawing.
His wife Margaret wrote the scripts up until the show wrapped up in 1999, after an incredible 40-year run.
“I taught Mr Squiggle to draw and now he draws better than I do,” Mr Hetherington told ABC News Online.
The basic premise of Australia’s longest running children’s TV show was children drew their “squiggles” and Mr Squiggle would use his genius and pencil nose to turn them into a drawing.

Blackboard is 50 today too! I just read that as I suspected, he was with Mr Squiggle from the start.
He looks as cranky as ever….
‘Hurry up’ - Lyall
Today, my mother woke me up by saying “Good morning my sexually aggressive daughter. We’re going to have an extremely uncomfortable conversation today.” Our awkward talk consisted of her telling me that I’m a tease and am going to get raped. Why? She caught me making out with my boyfriend. FML
Today, I was in my new boyfriend’s apartment for the first time. As I was flipping through his photo albums, I came across one full of disturbingly candid pictures of me. I found some as early as my trip to the state fair, three years ago. I met my boyfriend two months ago. FML
