A welcome sign in these hard times when every third shop in King Street Newton is a freaking frozen yoghurt joint.

Fuckwit of the Year

What an Australia Day present...

Some complete and utter tool has painted over the beautiful signage on the wall of King Street Cyclery, Newtown. This vintage motor garage signage probably dates back to around 1940 and was a wonderful piece of history. I just can't believe somebody would paint over this. A piece of Australian history is destroyed forever. Why don't you paint over "I had a Dream" while you're at it? Whoever did this: you are a complete and utter small dick fuckknuckle

There's some many great artists doing wonderful street art in the area and then we have this. And taggers. It doesn't just make me angry, it makes me depressed. Rant over.

Waratah Neptune Oil...

Some lovely vintage service station advertising on the wall of Newtown's King Street Cyclery appears after the burning down and flattening of the old laundromat next door. Shame some frecklehead had to put some crap graffiti on it. There's street art and then there's street arse.

Vegan Meat Pies of Newtown

Another street sign for Egan Street gets an extra "V", right in front of the Pie Face pie shop, a festival of manufactured meat, nice one. We hate to admit it but Pie Face does a hellava sausage roll, sorry vegans.

Attention All Dogs...

A sign requesting that dogs don't poo or wee in this curbside garden in Enmore. It will never work, dogs never wear their reading glasses when going walkies.

But it couldn't be as classy as the High Class Romance Hotel in Hong Kong...

Munchies

The the bistro at the newly revamped Abercrombie Hotel does stoner food specials: everything baked or fried. I wonder if there's Tim Tams for dessert.

Engrish

Jizz fashion store in the city, all the clothes feel a little stiff and crinkly.

Chesty Bond

Chesty Bond from the old Bonds factory in Camperdown, still smiling after all the jobs have moved offshore.
