Wanker of the Week and Saint of the Last Seven Days

23/5/2014

4 Comments

 
Many moons ago, I had a column in CANTA the University of Canterbury Students' Association magazine. In that, I always had a wanker of the week and a saint of the last seven days. I miss those guys, so I'm bringing them back. 

Wanker of the week.

Winner: Brendan Horan.

Having a crack at Winston Peter is a popular past time and one that should be applauded and taught in schools, but from Horan it all sounds rather bitter. Whether he stole from his mother to have a flutter on the gee gees or not, he is stealing from the taxpayer by being a lame duck MP.

Honourable mentions: Xhris Xairns, John Banks, drone strikes, and the guy who threw mud at John Banks (I'm in favour of letting the courts sort matters out).

Saint of the last seven days:

Winner: Vicki Buck.

Buck is behind the Christchurch 'Food Forrest' initiative. Extensive inquires can reveal that nobody has any idea what the hell that is, but it appears to be the planting of fruit tress instead of other flora around the inner city. If so, that's a bloody terrific initiative. Furthermore, it will mean drunk Cantabrians can have fresh fruit on the way home after a big night out instead of those microwave chicken rolls from the service station. Saintly stuff, Buck.

Honourable mentions: Brendon McCullum, @PussPussEleven, and the guy who threw mud at John Banks (simply because Banks said something he objected to in 1997. Way to hold a grudge you beautifully crazy old sod).


If bloody Weebly don't fix my Twitter and Facebook counters shortly (it has now been a week) next week's wanker will be rather predictable.

OK. But let me just say this, last night you forgot my food and water, the night before you forgot my litter tray. So you are on thin ice and I am the one on solid ground holding the hammer.
