I get the feeling that when Bernie's not counting his millions, he's creating sock puppet supporter accounts on Twitter.
He'd do each manually too. And overlook altering his language in any way to conceal his identity.

Agent "Bernie, some kid in the Ukraine or Mumbai could spawn you 45 million sycophant posts for about $70"

Bernie "don't tell me how to do my ******* job"

We need to develop a tinder-type app for North supporters.

I seem to keep meeting Essendon supporters :sick:

In the interim - does anyone have any ideas about how to meet 25-30 year old North-supporting men?

Good mate of mine had that problem a while ago. He was messaging a girl on tinder but as soon as he found out she was a * supporter he wound it up, and told her it was the reason he wound it up.

Of course.

It is a personal decision and if you are 100% sure of the reasons that you don't want to do it then yeah, go for it. If asked why tho you gotta call a spade a spade and accept the ramifications.
That's exactly the kind of answer I was looking for.
This particular scenario might involve one person who absolutely hates the other and refuses to acknowledge their existence. It all boils down to that person having zero respect for others, so in my mind, it's justified.

I know who you're thinking of and no it's no one from BF at all.
Happens to be a close friend of my partner.
I'm not sure we're thinking of the same person unless it's the same person who tweeted a portrait of a "hailstone" in their palm a few weeks ago and hours before the actual storm.

Are you concerned you'll catch melbourneitis from this person?

Im doing some preliminary work to put on a comedy show, which is a podcast from the US Crime in Sports, have a listen to it below:

podbean.com/podcast-detail/j48qu-3d335/Crime+In+Sports

If you would attend something like this please sign the petition I set up to get an idea if there is the numbers required to do it, at this stage I think Melbourne is the spot for it.

Please share amongst people you might think would be interested.

Get a time machine and head back to the MCG every second Friday night during footy season in the early to mid 90s. Much to my personal disappointment, there always seemed to be a North supporting male to female ratio of at least 5 to 1 at those games and in the nearby pubs afterwards.

So... *does maths in head* meeting 45-50 year old North-supporting men should be easy now? Or did they all settle for women who don't like football/followed Carlton or something since then?
