The Sensation Of The Planet
Watching The 7.30 Report the other evening, I came to realise that political editor Michael Brissenden looks surprised. All the fucking time. Even when casually talking to camera, he looks surprised. Either this is his natural expression, or the people at Aunty are putting naughty words and pictures on the autocue.
Let’s throw some random stuff at him and see how he reacts:
“Hey Michael! Your pants are on fire!”

“The Hawks are going to beat Geelong in the Grand Final on Saturday!”

“I have a video of Amanda Vandstone using a strap-on dildo on Alexander Downer!”

“Your 15yo daughter is knocked up, having twins and the daddy is a black dude!”

Not only does he look perpetually surprised, but he also bears a striking resemblance to Kryten:











You can’t see what’s happening under the desk…
Someone’s playing with his groinal attachment?
I remember seeing him at the ALP National Convention last year and he looked just as ’surprised’ in person as he does in real life. He’s long fascinated me for his ’surprised’ look.
Come to think of it, does he ever blink?
In the last photo, he looks like his balls are frozen to a pole.
This week,
Capitalism sits on the edge of the abyss to be saved by socialism.
$US 700 billion about to be “borrowed” to bail out the trash of the free market system.
Global Capitalism, the 21st century version of the Colonial Master plundering the resources of world to produce crap.
Technology reducing our freedom to Orwellian dimensions…
and the best you guys can discuss is “Michael Brissenden looks “..
Forget blogs..stick to facebook.

frozen to a pole? I think it’s that split microsecond that he knows he’s caught something in his zip that shouldn’t be there, but the pain has yet to kick in…
There’s not a part of this post that isn’t funny.
Kempy: Reckon he’s having a wank over the Vanstone/Downer video?
Keri: The more I think about it, the more I’m convinced he is a fucking robot. So perhaps you’re right.
Bron: Watch Tim Watson read the sport news on Ch 7. He blinks something in the region of 90 times a second.
Rebecca: Pour hot water over them, so as to unfreeze them.
Captain Fuckwit: How ya doin’, Captain Fuckwit?
Wah: It’s as if you came here expecting there to be something unfunny, you bitch.
Andy B – Tim Watson? That’d be in Melbourne, right? I’ll see if I can remember to take a look next time I’m in Melbourne.
Michael Brissenden is the shit!
he runs ABC,
Its his bitch,
Kerry is his bitch,
And he’ll make you his bitch if you don’t give him the respect he deserves.
I’m so glad I’m not the only one to notice the Kryten resemblance.
