EnterTheVoid Posted May 22, 2009 Posted May 22, 2009 Too funny !!!!!!! Heres the story: Outspoken Sydney shooting witness Clare Werbeloff has become an overnight internet sensation — so much so, she has engaged a PR representative to deal with the flood of media interest. The 19-year-old found fame online after giving her politically incorrect eyewitness account of a Kings Cross shooting to Nine News. The resulting public attention has apparently been so overwhelming for Ms Werbeloff, who is from Sydney's northern beaches, that's she's been forced to turn to a PR agency to manage her. "She's been inundated with calls this morning," spokesman Adam Abrams told ninemsn this afternoon. "We will be releasing a statement tomorrow." Around 3am on Sunday morning, a man in his 20s was shot twice in the leg outside a strip club on Darlinghurst Road at Kings Cross. (Read more: Man shot twice in Kings Cross attack) Overnight TV camera crews sought out witnesses and it was Clare's frank description of two men who began the argument that pushed the story into the stratosphere. "There were these two wogs fighting," she told Nine News. "The fatter wog said to the skinnier wog, 'Oi bro, you slept with my cousin'. "And the other one said 'Nah man, I didn't for s***, eh' and the other one goes, 'I will call on my fully sick boys, eh'. "And then [he] pulled out a gun and went [gun-cocking sound] BOOM. " The shooter, who was wearing a black hooded top and jeans, fled police on foot while the victim was taken to St Vincent's Hospital in a stable condition. Her video interview attracted more than 100,000 views, a Facebook fan group with over 1800 members has appeared and even t-shirts featuring Clare quotes are available online. The group, "Clare the Kings Cross bogan fan club", has spawned internet memes such as ironic motivational posters featuring the young woman and two other people interviewed on the night. Forums are abuzz with threads on the video, and bloggers have been posting the video attached to their commentary on the event. ************************************************************************************* Heres the video: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JjkQSREjxH0]YouTube - Kings Cross Shooting, Man Shot Twice.[/ame] ************************************************************************************* Heres the online satire: http://news.ninemsn.com.au/slideshow_ajax.aspx?sectionid=9016§ionname=slideshowajax&subsectionid=153560&subsectionname=clare
EnterTheVoid Posted May 22, 2009 Author Posted May 22, 2009 The fat wog said to the skinnier wog .......... :hysterical: WOG => A racist derogatory term used to decribe Lebanese, Greek etc. Its very offensive and used sparingly, if used at all Calling them "wogs" is akin to calling South Asians black "curry munchers" - you just dont do it And this bimbo says it straight out without a care in the world Typical Bogan
EnterTheVoid Posted May 24, 2009 Author Posted May 24, 2009 Apparently, she made the story up (i.e. her account of the shooting, the fat wog - skinny wog stuff). On one of her blogs etc, she later went on to say, You've all been P'unkd (fooled) Shes going to appear on a nightly news show called "A current affair" tomorrow, where I'll try and upload the interview Watch this space
THX_1138 Posted May 25, 2009 Posted May 25, 2009 And somewhere a scientists at CERN is wondering what he must do to gain even an iota of recognition. If anything, the internet is responsible for the progressing infatuation with inferior and pedestrian intelligence and a marked departure from recognition for actual achievement. i open yahoo and all i see is an old woman staking a claim to fame for her singing talents whereas the approval percentage of university grants has dipped from 20% to 6% since 2000.

Agreed THX. There's a rapidly growing culture that prefers quick and colourful entertainment, even if it's aimed at the lowest common denominator possible, to anything that may actually require some level of thought or taste. People caring less and less about achievement and more about the mundane, irrelevant and downright stupid flavours of the month... meanwhile intelligent people seem to be reproducing less and less - we're ****ed in the long run, aren't we?
EnterTheVoid Posted May 25, 2009 Author Posted May 25, 2009 Recognition is a double edged sword. Let her have her 15 seconds of fame. Regarding the attention shes getting, at the same time shes being alienated and chastised as a bimbo. There is a difference between people laughing at you and people laughing with you
EnterTheVoid Posted May 25, 2009 Author Posted May 25, 2009 The full interview of Clare the Bogan, on a "Current Affair", as promised http://video.msn.com/?mkt=en-au&brand=ninemsn&tab=m164&mediaid=218221&from=39&vid=CBF002B2-A3BB-4AEB-A183-45D8AB0888BC&playlist=videoByTag:mk:en-AU:vs:0:tag:aunews_auaca:ns:MSNVideo_Top_Cat:ps:10:sd:-1:ind:1:ff:8A

However, Two and a Half Men, and How I Met Your Mother enjoy improving ratings. While on a whole our average education is increasing, our entertainment's quality is declining on a day to day basis as you suggested. As for the last statement in your post, i recommend that you watch this movie "Idiocracy".
