The South Australian Parliament is in turmoil at the moment as some public servant from Kangaroo Island got pinged for having a farm, or something, that benefited from some public project or yada yada yada par for the course if you’re in the public service and because of that, some people in Adelaide are spewing.
Same can be said for the tired Australian soap opera, Neighbours, which was mercilessly euthanised by Network 10 this year after 30 years, or maybe 40, of sustained mediocrity that was largely unsalvagable even when the world still had Princess Diana.
Now the two have been compared for the first time because they’re both full of needless drama that nobody actually cares about anymore.
Some in the industry have mooted a Neighbours reboot in the near future, made possible after a JDAM is dropped on Ramsay Street, which blows all the houses and the flaming, naked bodies of the cast into Port Philip Bay, allowing the series to rise from the ashes.
As for South Australia, the second largest settlement outside Adelaide is Gawler, where 25 000 souls are trapped.
For the million, or perhaps two million that have found themselves in Adelaide, they’ve been told to just be thankful they got a new hospital.
More to come.
