Who You Gonna Call?

You know you are in Australia when people are asked to catch and donate deadly funnel web spiders to the Australian Reptile Park because they are low on venom antidote. Seems due to the amount of people being bitten this summer, stocks are low. So, let me get this straight, so many people have been bitten by these deadly spiders they have run low on anti venom they want more people to catch them. What could possibly go wrong?

It’s The Season

Um, yeah about that tinsel. Step away from that Christmas tree….repeat…step away from that Christmas tree. A family in Australia got quite the WTF when they realised that the tinsel was moving on their Christmas Tree. Turns out it wasn’t a possessed decoration at all,  but a deadly tiger snake. Is nowhere safe?

Surf’s Up

If dodging aliens hiding in suspicious Japanese clouds isn’t enough, scientists now believe Australia has a massive super ocean sink hole which could cause catastrophic earthquakes and tsunamis. Goddammit does that mean I have to hang my washing up higher? The so called “tear” in the sea bed is 7 km deep and just north of Australia. Scientists are now calling it the biggest fault on the planet. …nice one.

Best Christmas Lights EVER!!!!

An Aussie dude has created the best Christmas lights display, synced to AC/DC Thunderstruck … and some other dude in the US too.

Standoff Fail

Oh well, seems Aussie police aren’t immune to the occasional awks. Seems the men in blue spent 7 hours outside a house in an apparent standoff. Only prob, the house was empty. The Critical Incident Response Team members claim they were negotiating with a man who refused to leave the house but when they finally decided to enter…..crickets. Pity the fool who had to tell the school that had been in lock down all that time.

Frog Groin Is The New Orange

Do you WANT me to flash?

When it comes to Australian wildlife we definitely have some winners. The latest discovery includes a frog whose groin flashes orange to startle its predators and give it a chance to make a quick exit.

PSST I swear I too would run if any creature’s  groin  flashed orange … just saying.

Priorities

Oh for the love of a XXXX, an Aussie man got himself in trouble with the law after he used a seatbelt to secure his 2 cartons of beer while his kids were left unrestrained on the adult’s laps and on the floor of the vehicle.
