Genius moments from my weekend

Filed under: minor politics, those meddling kids, other lives — ana @ 6:39 pm

Just to lower the tone a little now that there is, all going well, only three months left for this blog.

“Roses are red, violets are blue, I forget the rest, but I rooted your Mum”
- graffiti down the road in enormous, beautifully drawn chalk letters*

“Melbournians think they’re so good with their nice art galleries and everything. But we’ve got race war and finance capital”
- my friend Chris

*I am SO jealous that I have never thought of doing this, especially smack bang in the midst of my rapidly gentrifying neighbourhood (which, consequently, bears many signs of race war and finance capital).

  6. It’s funny isn’t it. But (unlike der schwester of adrian) I just can’t imagine NTMD having a life after my thesis. I won’t have as much need to procrastinate, for starters. And sometimes I really think that blogging has had its day. Like my thesis.
