Rudd pwnes whingeing pensioner
Posted by clubwah on May 14, 2008
Prime Minister Kevin Rudd was on 3AW’s Neil Mitchell this morning spruiking the Budget and took a call from an old lady with the usual “woe is me” tail about paying taxes since 1879, fighting in several world wars and looking after her husband suffering from 16 terminal illnesses, a stroke and a very irritating itch under the shoulder blade that he can’t reach.
When she said “there is nothing in this Budget for “us pensioners” Rudd politely reminded her of measures including a senior’s bonus of $500, an increase in the utilities allowance from $107 to $500 per year and rise in the phone allowance from $88 to $132 per year.
Insisting that she was still getting fuck all Whingeing Mavis threw in the “we’re not all married to millionaire business women” comment, to which Rudd politely repeated what she was getting again.
Pwned you old bitch!
It’s a shame Rudd didn’t do a Hawkey and call you (to paraphrase) “a whingeing old bitch”. Even Mitchell, the champion of the grumpy and wrinkly, sided with Rudd.
Note - Club Wah’s mummy is a senior pensioner who lives on her own and while doing it tough doesn’t carry on like the world owes her a favour.

I admire Rudd’s restraint.
Fucking miserable old people.
