July Thumbs Up, Thumbs Down

By Dan Hutton on July 16, 2013 in Other

Up – The Blues – One victory down, two to go. Hopefully this is the year we finally break our State of Origin hoodoo.

Down – Nate Myles – What a filthy-stinking, knee-twisting, head-butting grub. He wasn’t like that when he was at the Roosters, was he?

Up – Ibuprofen and Codeine – The best thing about having a cold is that these drugs make you feel like you don’t have one.

Down – Alcohol-Fuelled Violence – Would it be irresponsible of us to suggest that everyone spark up a joint and chill the f**k out?

Up – The Ride – Bondi lifeguards Jesse and Maxi are riding jetskis from Sydney to Cairns in the name of suicide prevention. Good effort.

Down – Washing Woollens – Wool is unbeatable in winter but Christ it’s a pain in the arse to get it clean and dry.

Up – Electric Toothbrushes – If you’re lazy when it comes to dental health and hygiene, the old Oral-B could be your saviour.

Down – Short, Dark Days – If you’re not in the surf by about 4.30pm these days you can pretty much forget about it.

Up – The iPad Mini – While pretty useless in general, when you’re travelling without a phone or lappy the iPad Mini is the doozy.

Down – Forgotten Chargers – Is there anything more frustrating then going away for the weekend and forgetting your phone charger?
