December 2016 Thumbs

By Dan Hutton on December 9, 2016 in Other

Many happy memories aboard the Indies Explorer.

Carols – The religious side of Christmas carolling is pretty weird, but there’s something empowering about belting out tunes at the top of your lungs.

Regifting – Some people frown upon this practice, but as long as you don’t regift a present to the person you received it from, we don’t see the problem.

Christmas Parties – The season of drunkenness and debauchery is upon us. Now is the time to finally do something about that office crush. Get in there!

Moore Park – The ‘green lungs of Sydney’ is set to turn 150 this month. That’s a pretty bloody impressive feat, particularly with Chainsaw Mike in power!

Social Summer Sport – Whether it’s touch footy, AFL 9s, Oztag or netball, social sport in the evenings after work is one of summer’s greatest assets.

Down

The First Ding – There is nothing sadder than getting back to your brand new car and realising some lowlife has opened their door into it and left a mark.

Christmas Shopping – Shopping is torture at the best of times, but during the Christmas period it goes to a whole new punishing level of shitness.

America – They voted in Donald Trump. For President. To run the so-called ‘greatest country in the world’. What a special bunch of f**king morons.

The Indies Explorer – The coolest boat in the Mentawais caught fire in early November and now sleeps with the fishes at the bottom of Padang harbour.

Bin Night – Why does it always rain on bin night? And why do I always forget to take the bloody things out until just before I’m about to get into bed?
