Tasmania - Hobart Review

Posted on 05 June 2008

Hobart

What is the name of the city, town or village where you live?
Hobart

Why do you live there?
Work

What cultural opportunities do you have?
The public television station, the internet and drink.

What recreational opportunities do you have?
Drink. Incest and drink if you were born here.

What do you like about it?
In a polluted overcrowded world that has had the dubious virtues of multiculturalism thrust down its throat, it’s a white anglo-saxon redoubt in a clean environment.

What do you hate about it?
The white is, unfortunately, white trash. Some of God’s worst mistakes were shipped here as convicts and their regrettable DNA pervades the streets.

What qualities really stand out? (good or bad)
The fact the CBD is deserted on weekend nights except for gangs of youths seeking trouble. Public buses are labelled: "Bully Free Zone" and feature signs inside containing tips on what to do if one is attacked. Tip 3 is: "Ignore them." Got that?

Would you recommend it, and why?
If you happen to find yourself at the bottom of the world, it may be convenient to stop here briefly for lunch. Otherwise, no.

If I were to move there, what would I really need to know?
A gun could prove handy.

How is it different from other places you have been?
It is a place with a dark history that continues to pervade its present.

If you live in this location, why not add a review of your own? What does this location mean to you?
