Nelson as popular as BO scented roll-on: newspoll
A newspoll released today shows opposition leader Brendan Nelson’s approval rating at just nine percent
The same poll places both Prime Minister Rudd’s approval and aproval for the formal apology given last Tuesday at over 70%.
Alexander Downer was quick to laud Mr. Nelson, presumably because he now takes the record formerly held by Mr. Downer for the least popular leader of the Liberal party in Australian history.
A “Dante’s Inferno” source is quoted as saying “Nelson’s about as popular among the Australian public as a turd flavoured lollypop, as a truck load of rats in a tampon factory and a calamari ring at a Bah Mitzvah”.
Mr. Nelson declined to comment.

This is related to your heading not the subject.
The other day we had a guy from a laundry trying to win over our linen business. He had B.O. that nearly made me throw up (I react to bad smells, that’s why Sophie is banned from the premises).
This guy takes away the linen, washes & presses it and then brings it back, all the time infecting it with his ’smell from hell’. How would you like hopping into bed with nice crisp clean-looking linen only to be overwhelmed with something that smells like a combination of shit & vomit?
And his prices were actually higher than our present linen hire contractor. I think he charges extra for the scent.
That’s it. Thanks for letting me get that off my chest on your site Krypto. It would have made a good post on my own site but it’s a small town and I wouldn’t want to offend anyone …. or would I?
As for Nelson’s 9% … he’s just so over-rated.

no, not at all Ray, dirty laundry is my stock in trade too in a manner of speaking.
You know some people actually have a medical condition that makes them stink like a polecat rolled in shit.
If it’s that he gets a reprieve in my book, if it’s just bad hygeine he should move back to England.
On a related topic, there was this guy at my school who was notorious for never washing, he had like a pathological aversion to bathing (I’m not kidding, he wouldn’t shower for literally MONTHS on end, trust me, you could tell).
Anyway, I had enough of getting a nosefull of his pungence so I decided to spray him with a deodorant, honestly, this guy could not have run faster if I whipped out a gun and aimed it at him, the abject terror in his eyes at the prospect of smelling like something OTHER than corn chips and arse just defied description or belief.
I felt like a world class bully afterwards but cheeses, what an absolute filthball grub huh?

I reckon if you’ve got ‘unremoveable’ B.O. you should get a job where it doesn’t matter – like at the council tip, an abattoir or as a politician.

well yeah, you’d certainly avoid working at places like the fragrance counter at David Jones, unless of course smelling like a flyblown corpse becomes “en vogue”.
