Do you know what the most annoying thing in the world is? Kids dance concerts! But the second most annoying thing in the world is lazy merger talk from the uninspired.
Speaking of lazy, Im not even going to try and clumsily link these 2 whines let alone pull off some Guy Ritchie esque type intermingling of seemingly unrelated story arcs. (young people who dont know what means, do yourself a favour and check out his work, its great, and Im not talking about the time he was shagging Madonna)
Lets talk kids Dance concerts. The whole premise is legalised theft. I pay all year for them to teach my kid to do a dance in a school hall that they charge roughly the same as it costs to see something at the Sydney Royal theatre for me to watch. They sell me an overpriced costume that can never be used again and they make certain that is a single use outfit by never having anyone wear the same costume twice.
Once they robbed you blind they lock you in a school hall with plastic seats and no air conditioning to maximise discomfort and force you to watch about 4 hours of dances of kids you've never seen before. The best 9 yo dancer is still a 9yo dancer. The first few dances are kind of cute, but that wares off quick. Before long it is tortuous. Finally your kid gets on stage and watching your own kid is great, so that 6 minutes is tops. At this point you just wished you could leave, but no, they put some ridiculous thing on at the end to make you stay so the torture continues.
How is this relevant to the SFA, its not, but they suck and I wanted to complain.
What is related to the SFA is lazy merger talk. Although it is normally considered poor form to reveal the contents of a PM, in this case, I feel it is fine.
Our skipper, the great Falconista , received a PM titled "Rats-Gumby Merger" with a single word message. "Thoughts"
Thoughts, I have Thoughts alright.
For starters, if this is a serious consideration, a single word message of "thoughts" really does not cut it.
If this is what you want, lets here some reasoning, some potential benefits, some thought provoking discussion.
Obviously the reason that none of this occured is because damicky doesn't actually want a merger and wants to recycle an age old trope that is as fresh and relevant as an episode of kingswood country (young people this is a show that boomer used to watch as kids and is basically a series of racist jokes)
Essentially Id rather a lifetime of dance concerts than entertain this merger talk.
