I used to think Pell was an idiot, and then I started watching some videos of Jensen.

That's an uncharacteristically garbled post from you.

I'm so disapointed. I'd love to go to this festival but I live in Perth Western Australia. Including accomodation it would be like at least $500.

Which is sad, cos i like Yoddle, Nolan, Humandichotomy, loquasagacious.

Edit: Freedom too. Yoddle and Humandichotomy are homosexual, yes?

That's no excuse! I live in Tazmazia and I'm still going. Couchsurfing saves on the mulah. Ha yes I am homo, but dunno about HumanDiColostomyBag, maybe they're a girl?

 

[yoddle]

Either Bond, UTS, USYD or UniAdelaide

The middle two are if I start putting any effort into school.

 

[yoddle]

Because they don't have any sort of journalism program at all. Not even postgrad or an Arts major.

What are you planning on studying?

[dieburndie]

A great event, all things considered

Went to:
Religion Poisons Everything
Freedom: The Most Dangerous Idea of All
Does Online Networking Harm Kids' Brains?
The Arts Don't Deserve A Place In This Festival
Make All Drug Use Legal

Highlights:
Germaine Greer. Easily the most engaging and thought-provoking of the speakers we saw.
Hitchens reciting boozed philosophers (and being generally awesome).
Soapbox winner- A woman in her 60's arguing for the right to die on her own terms.
Drugs- got to ask Dr Wodak a question about drug supply legalisation and got a detailed response.
The middle cunt at the arts one was a moron. Julian Morrow was interesting though.

 

[chelsea girl]

All up the weekend ended up costing me over $500.

So unbelievably worth it, though.

Germaine, she sends my heart all a-flutter <3

I remember you! I remember you!
I found the drugs one interesting from a very economical point of view, and I thought the last guy was good and passionate, but i didn't find it overly inspiring on the whole.

Germaine and the Dead Aid woman were my favourites. I was actually very impressed with the latter.
Did anyone else get annoyed with that British woman who asked long winded, self-serving questions at Dead Aid and Make all drug use legal?? The people behind us started clapping half way through her question in D.A. it was funny as.

Also, I found that were heaps and heaps of really hot people in the Opera House. I wanted an orgy. I actually loved my time in Sydney, we stayed with these super awesome kids in Newtown (dykeity dyke town).

Hahaha what did you think of my question, and his answer?

I agree about that session not being overly inspiring, mostly things I already thought/knew and it was a bit "safe".

That British woman was the WORST. She did exactly the same thing at 'The arts don't deserve a place at this festival' as well. What an annoying idiot.
