well hung

In this tumultuous political climate, with the ridiculously-dubbed "hung" parliament hanging over our ignorant heads like a juicy dangler, I tackle the BIG questions... because i've always been about big, in-depth political discussion on Teddy Pickle.

On today's homepage for The Age, I read the amusing headline "Indies to back Labour". So, the feeling is that these enigmatic "Independents" (which includes a ridiculous oil-tycoon-wannabe in a cowboy hat) will end up supporting Labour rather than Coalition.

That's all very well. But will the "indies" back Labour? And by indies I'm referring to the much more commonly accepted term describing those who live in Brunswick, shop nowhere else but "op" and proudly roll their own cigarettes.

 I wonder who this indie would support? Actually this is Jean-Pierre B. (jeanpierreb.blogspot.com) from The Netherlands, so I doubt he'd give a fuck

I asked several of my indie-est friends the big question (via Facebook, of course. As if I could be bothered tramming all the way to Brunswick! It's another world up there). Though most of them (like the rest of us under-30 Melbourne voters) voted for the Greens, their answer was a resounding "Labour!".

So there you have it - the Indies and the indies will reportedly back Labour.

Now, on to the metro, bogan and emo demographies...

In some completely unrelated news, here's Lady Gaga looking rather indie in a pair of faux-specs, a trademark look of the indie-subculture:
