Victorian MP's staffer involved in bomb hoax

A Victorian Government MP's electorate officer has been caught promoting an anti-carbon tax stunt, where a protester would try to smuggle a fake bomb into Federal Parliament.

Bill Tilley's electorate officer, Tony Tynan, wrote an email to journalists spruiking the event this morning.

The email claimed a protester "plans to dress as Guy Fawkes and enter Parliament House with a suspect brief case" next week.

I think he was shit-stirring for the guffaws. Stuff like that is always funnier coming from Nintendo fans.

Zoo? Come on. It's at least Maxim. Gears pretty well invented dudebro, it's not one of these Johnny come lately dudebro shooters.

And Ban that is the second time you've just blown my mind with a reply in the last two days. My hat is off sir

You sir are a dolt.

People who play videogames are dolts.

That's like calling Call of Duty 'Call'.

Not really. 'Gears' works as 'Gears of War' is pretty much the only game that uses the word 'Gears'. It's totally unambiguous. 'Call' is used in many games and thus is not iconic to any particular series.

A better analogy would be that it is like calling 'Super Mario Bros.' by the name 'Mario', which we have been doing for over 25 years...

our parliament has gone to the dogs. Fuckin sack the lot of them and lets start again

Julia and Tony are DESTROYING this nation. Not 1, BOTH of them

Tony for being a cock that won't listen to reason, and Julia for being incompetant

we have the worst PARLIAMENT in history tony, not just the worst PM


you need to wake the FUCK up and realise that destroying the nation is not good politics. As Tony Windsor said, hoping the nation fails in a big way so you can become PM is not good politics, its called being a selfish pig.

I would like to see a new third party in Australia. Hell, more parties in general is a good thing.

And I am definately a snob, I turn my nose up... or down... at Cod so hard that I cant see where I am going! (Or can only see my feet)(Whichever it is meant to be >.>)

Hai, I was off having fun playing multi player Gears of War 3.
What did I miss?

*reads thread*

uh huh. I see. I disagree with your viewpoint but I will defend your right to be wrong.
Damn Ricki Lee fans.

Back to GoW3, Gears 3, G3ars whatever (gears is the GoW de jour).

Hey any idea when Mario on the 3DS is coming out? I'm looking forward to that. I'm looking skyward to Zelda too. Teehee

wayne swan champion of the world >_>

WAYNE Swan will assert his newly-gained authority as the world's best finance minister to tell other G20 economic leaders to "get their act together" at upcoming talks in Washington.

The Treasurer was awarded the coveted title overnight by the distinguished magazine Euromoney as the IMF slashed global growth forecasts, including those for Australia.

Mr Swan, who will be officially presented the award at the G20 on Monday, said the dire IMF forecasts should be a wake up call for Europe and the US.

It's OK Bob Katter says he'll be running the country in two elections.

Can Google hurry up and buy Australia yet?

The only thing more embarrassing than having someone like Bob Katter for PM would be if we somehow wound up electing Silvio Burlusconi.

I'd still call it GeoW. Gears sounds like a racing game.

Let's get this thread back on track and talk about niche Japanese games played by true gamers.

Xenoblade might be the best game I have ever played. The story, the characters, the environments and the sense of exploration have been brilliant so far. Such an amazing world to explore which makes FFXII's world look small in comparison.

No game has been able to eclipse Chrono Cross since I played it ten years ago, but Xenoblade is coming awfully close.

That's right, ignore everything I just said. Typical. Your arguments flop.

What do you want me to say? All you said was, effectively, deal with it, calm down, u mad. I don't call that much of an argument.

I haven't started Xenoblade yet. :T I probably should. There's some mental barrier preventing me from hooking up my Wii yet though.

I would have to be somewhere just over 100 hours in the game so far (I didn't check this morning, but I was 98 hours in last night)... It's just so bloody addictive. Sure, you're allowed to ignore it, but I really love the affinity system and I'm doing every single quest I can and so on and I'm going to try to get all the achievements and stuff too.

And it might still have been on my backlog if my PS3 didn't YLOD... It's the only positive thing to result from that :p.

For me that barrier is knowing what the image will look like once I do...

It was an offhand comment in the context of a community thread, not an attack comment in a gears of war thread in the way you seem to have taken it. You leap-frogged off it to insult everyone in this thread and anyone who took you to task over insulting everybody in the thread.

I'm making a google+ account while awaiting the inevitable "intstant newsfeed bar of everything" on appear on my facebook page. Goodbye facebook, it was nice while it lasted, but I'm just not cool with everyone I know seeing that I wrote something on someone's comment.

Daaamn google+ is empty.

The lack of character relationships for me is a big eh. I don't feel like I have any emotional attachment to the characters because I don't have any insight into how they're feeling.

Damnit, I should have researched this more.
