Moer WikiVandalism.

Ganked from gemfyre.

I used to hail from the Balga area, and I used to work there. Anyway, read the third paragraph down:

haha. I love wikivandalism.

I tend to do it a lot to entries about scary looking invertebrates.

"The whip scorpian will eat your head like a cookie, and lives in moist areas such as under rotting logs and scrotums."

XD Haha, oh dear!

Oh dear. Poor Greg! :)

Heh. Best incidence of wikivandalism I've ever seen. Usually it's just boring obscenities.

I think what makes it, at least for Glen and I, is how quintessentially Australian it sounds, right down to the 'C'mon Greg, get your act together,' which we've been quoting to each other all night since we read it. :D

LOL

Thanks for the laugh!

[vanirpriestess.livejournal.com]

LMAO!!!!!!! Poor Greg :D

It's kinda funny and sad at the same time.

[mirrorred-star.livejournal.com]

:D That gave me a chuckle.

The song is Green SLEEVES not Green Leaves!

[gemfyre.livejournal.com]

I just went and edited it slightly, putting capital letters on and minor things like that. I almost changed the green leaves thing, but that has a certain charm in itself.

[jet-ski.livejournal.com]

hahah but the song is so saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad when I first heard the lyrics I wondered why some bright spark decided it should be the 'ice cream truck' song.

I cannot help but read this aloud in my best Australian accent. "Best" as in "informed by decades of listening to Americans and Brits fake the accent."

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Oh it is SO Australian, even in the way it's written! It's fantastic. It's one of the best incidences of graffiti I've ever read on Wiki, especially because you can really hear the Australian vernacular in it.

Maybe I should read it out in a voice post or something, so people can get the full effect. ;)

What's worst is that he's a Collingwood supporter!

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

I know, how dare he! *grin*

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Actually, we have Collingwood supporters on the corner, who display their support with little hideous garden gnomes with painted Collingwood jerseys.

The bastards.

[gemfyre.livejournal.com]

I am an obligatory Hawthorn supporter. My b/f and brother are both rabid fans, so I feel it's safest if I am too. :)

Not that I really follow footy anyway.

[jet-ski.livejournal.com]

Wait til they win the Premiership this year. You will see lots more of those obnoxious little gnomes.

[firehauke.livejournal.com]

Well, I think they fixed it :( any caps or copy/pastas? Could use a chuckle...

"Balga is also the home of one Gregory Price. This man, if you can call him that, is a fine example of the species of humans you can find in Balga. Grubby, overweight, drinks at least 12 beers in one night. What makes it worse is that he is a Collingwood supporter. Its been said that if you find his home and sit outside during the night, you can hear what sounds like a loud TV playing the tennis or Collingwood football game and with a croakey crackly voice humming the green leaves song thats usually heard on Mr Whippy vans. Cmon Greg, get your act together."

ROFL!!!
I read that damned entry three times to try to work out what was so funny. Someone without a sense of humour musta fixed it.
Thanks for posting it here :-D

Wow...that's special, lol! Weird editing...
