Super, man...


We got bored so we went to watch the new Superman movie. He throws an island into space. He seems to think the answer to every problem is to hurl it into space.

"Oh shit! A nuclear warhead launched by the evil Lex Luther - I'll just throw it into space..."

"Oh shit! An island planted by the evil Lex Luther! I'll just throw it into space..."

Why the hell doesn't he just throw Lex Luther into space and save all the unnecessary trips?

We also found an amusingly named restaurant but it only makes sense if you understand Aussie slang. If someone has a "mong leg" it means they have a broken leg. If your TV reception is bad, you have a "monged signal". So basically it means broken, defective, etc. We passed a restaurant called "Mongkok" which sounds like a terribly painful affliction.

I couldn't stop laughing all the way up three escalators.
