FTA: "Marrickville police are preparing a coronial report."

Coronial report? From the porice? Rearry?

At least he got in a final act of graffiti.

Why is all graffiti in that same black outlined font? Not pertinent to the story, I just thought this was as good a place as any to ask.

I've known a few taggers. If a train hit any of them I'd feel bad for the trainconductor, any passengers who witnessed it, the people who secure the scene and do the investigation, whoever gets stuck cleaning up a mess like that, as well as anyone inconvenienced by all of the above. But not the tagger.

He took up the painting style of Jackson Pollock.

Splatter art.

Sad for the train right?

It's sad that he got killed by a train.

It's not sad the WAY he got killed by a train.
 
2012-01-11 10:05:58 PM
We finally get an ironic story and they don't use the tag.

Isn't it...

Darwin seems to really like trains.

I remember at eighteen I always did stupid stuff. I'm wiser now and it's sad that this poor kid never got to be old enough to bemoan his young and stupid days.
Oh....this is Fark? Well then,- He choo choo chose poorly.

A train hits a bus filled with Catholic school girls and they all perish.
They are in heaven trying to enter the pearly gates when St. Peter asks the first girl, "Tiffany, have you ever had any contact with a male organ? She giggles and shyly replies, "Well, I once touched the head of one with the tip of my finger. St. Peter says, "Okay, dip the tip of your finger in the Holy Water and pass through the gate."

St. Peter asks the next girl the same question, "Jennifer, have you ever had any contact with a male organ?" The girl is a little reluctant but replies, "Well, once I fondled and stroked one." St.
Peter says, "Okay, dip your whole hand in the Holy Water and pass through the gate."

All of a sudden, there is a lot of commotion in the line of girls. One girl is pushing her way to the front of the line. When she reaches the front, St. Peter says, "Reeva, What seems to be the rush?" The girl replies, "If I'm going to have to gargle that Holy Water, I want to do it before Jessica sticks her ass in it."

"Graffiti artist" -- accurate title or oxymoron? You decide.

MAYORBOB: "Graffiti artist" -- accurate title or oxymoron? You decide.

I'm with you here.

Just seems needless. You never refer to Bob Ross as a "Paint Artist."

Came for "Beat Street", leaving satisfied.

The sad tag must be for the passengers that were delayed because of the graffiti artist vandal.
 
2012-01-11 10:29:08 PM
I'd tag this:

Did they mean Mallickville?

The male train driver and guard were breath tested and returned negative readings.

Were they drinking something that makes you more straight than usual?

Country Member: TFA: The man pile of offal is yet to be formally identified or his next of kin notified.

How do you ID someone after they've been hit by a train? Isn't a person mostly bits of hamburger and random red stains after that sort of thing?

/and all of this could have been avoided if he'd been wearing a high-visibility vest...
 
2012-01-11 10:35:02 PM
can we get a hero tag for the train ?
 
2012-01-11 10:41:59 PM
This is the kind of reversal of expectations one usually associates with Soviet era Russia.

Nothing is nastier than when they bring the locomotives that hit people into the shop where I work. They hit people in-between dc and Philly all the time and I live and work in Wilmington Delaware so we see it quite a bit. We got 2 in the same week a few weeks ago. The more childish and immature workers call them squishies. That's the railroad.

I hate it that they make me late for work. Selfish spallter bastards.

Well, I went and punched my ticket to hell for tomorrow, so my commute will go smoothly: I was about to ask what it is that you do, and had the mental image of someone hosing off the front of the locomotive in the same way one removes dead, spattered bugs from the grille of their car. "We hit a pack of schoolkids today, it was like driving through a cloud of gnats."

Seriously, though, if you deal with that sort of cleanup, *hugs* for you. I sometimes wonder what kind of person it takes to do that, and if they have a strong stomach or will need mental help after a while. :-\

Yep, you could probably come up with a tasty recipe utilizing him as the main ingredient. :-)


p.s. I've copied your recipies and plan to give a couple of them a try.
