So much truth in this , I wasn't aware of the bogan trend of spelling names backwards though. I'm surprised they avoid pointing out the Maori/Pi habit of made up or imported US names probably has similar repurcussions ( Rastaman , Shonraye/Shontayne , Dushane etc) . http://m.nzherald.co.nz/lifestyle/news/article.cfm?c_id=6&objectid=11854900

Good as far as i know!
She must wonder why strangers are walking around with her name on their t-shirts and hoodies though.. -
wow, seen this on social media, that playmate from the article above posted this message she got on her page.
Her post on FB:
We did NOT know that what we did was going to offend or disrespect anyone. We apologised the next day and that should have been the end of it. But no. The media keep adding fuel to the fire, and for what? What are they achieving? We've kept relatively quiet and been taking the punches but enough is enough. Now I'm just fucking angry. What gives people the right to speak to people like this?
What we did was an accident, these comments are on purpose, yet we are the awful people? This isn't even the worst of the comments! Just the most recent one.
One thing I have learnt throughout this whole experience is to never give in to modern day media. Be courteous and kind to others. Show support to those who need it. Remember that your actions and words, sometimes says more about YOU than it does them. -
@taniwharugby Why redact the name of that delightful individual? They're clearly ambivalent about the whole thing.
-
Just saw that the UK police are investigating a hate crime. Apparently a photographer yelled out to Caitlyn Jenner to get his/her dick out.
Oh the humanity.
-
@antipodean dunno, maybe she has reported it to authorities and they are dealing with it, but yeah I'd be naming and shaming!
-
not sure where to put this...I havent seen much of this guy, but is he actually funny? I have only seen his stuff taking the piss out of NZ, which make me think he isnt funny...now I am open to funny shit even at our expense, but this guy? Is it worth looking for any of his other shows?
Where is his show aired mainly, and is it in front of a live audience or is it canned laughter?
-
@taniwharugby He's an Englishman with a US talk show. Full of snide innuendos, canned laughter and the odd bit of actual humour. Rarely worth searching out.
-
@taniwharugby he was funny at first but he's turned into a bit of a sanctimonious dick . English should have known better than to but himself in his crosshairs though considering how he mocked Key when he did stupid things like getting into a cage.
His interview with Edward Snowden is worth watching though .
-
@Catogrande so no James Corden then

Summed up brilliantly. His Trump humour was great but he became really tired really quickly......
James Corden is just a fat unfunny dick.

The trouble is that his humour only works if he is the geeky everyman looking in from the outside. Now he thinks that he is the important one in the room (as seen by his comments - 'don't mess with me') and he starts to come across as an unfunny 'bully'

His middle name is Kimberly as well. This puts him at Ed Sheeran status.
