    Well, what the fuck else is there to do in Tasmania?

  2. ManchuCandidate says at 9:54 am, June 25th, 2009

    Who knew that Kanga and Roo loved the pipe?

    What was Tigger on? Meth?

  3. norbizness says at 9:55 am, June 25th, 2009

    Wallabies indeed live interesting lives.

    P.S. Where’s the Drudge siren and accompanying klaxon?

  4. x111e7thst says at 9:57 am, June 25th, 2009

    Ich bin ein Wallabee.

  5. Monsieur Grumpe says at 10:00 am, June 25th, 2009

    All hopped up on poppies?

    Sorry.

  6. nappyduggs says at 10:02 am, June 25th, 2009

    x111e7thst: Today-you guessed it-we are all Wallabees.

  7. somethinstinks says at 10:04 am, June 25th, 2009

    Two juicy breaking Republican sex scandals to cover and this is what they offer.

    Weak.

  8. charlesdegoal says at 10:05 am, June 25th, 2009

    Forget Chengmai, get me on the next flight to Hobart.

  9. genericuserid says at 10:09 am, June 25th, 2009

    Furries have something to do with this, you just know it.

  10. WadISay says at 10:10 am, June 25th, 2009

    Today, we are all stoner wallabees.

    Actually, if you’ve ever seen a wallabee in real life, it’s about the cutest thing ever. This just makes me love them more.

  11. bfstevie says at 10:14 am, June 25th, 2009

    This is an easy problem to solve. First, get the wallabees their own maids. Then they can send the maids to get them oxycontin.

  12. Like there’s anything else to do in Tasmania.

  13. nappyduggs says at 10:39 am, June 25th, 2009

    Oh the horror of a Wallabee in withdrawal. Some poor aboriginie is gonna end up with a didgeridoo clean up the ass. Wallabees are Republicans also.

  14. the cold war makes me hot says at 10:39 am, June 25th, 2009

    It’s wallbies, not wallabees. Australian marsupials do not have the ability to fly, not matter how high they get.

  15. nappyduggs says at 10:47 am, June 25th, 2009

    the cold war makes me hot: Hmm. Yes. You did forget the “a” but wallabees are an extremely durable shoe fashioned by the Clarks shoe company. They were once considered “dope” by the hip-hopping youngsters of the mid-nineties, so you will understand the confusionz.

  16. CivicHoliday says at 11:03 am, June 25th, 2009

    Actually, just FYI (here come a Bio lecture), this is an extremely common phenomenon in nature. Many species are drawn toward plants with narcotic, hallucinogenic, stimulant or depressant effects. Essentially, the entire animal kingdom is predisposed toward the occasional enjoyment of mind-altering substances. So…suck on that, Reagan! (Bet that blows your already dead mind nearly as much as the gay penguins)

  17. SayItWithWookies says at 11:06 am, June 25th, 2009

    Well whatever the wallabies in England are smoking, it’s way freakier than the Tasmanian dope.

    Makes me a wallabee wannabee …

  20. d4g33z says at 11:21 am, June 25th, 2009

    Everybody does that when they’re a ‘kid.’

    Yuck yuck.

  21. d4g33z says at 11:23 am, June 25th, 2009

    d4g33z: Whoops. I mean, “when they’re a joey.”

  22. Kaylub says at 11:27 am, June 25th, 2009

    Legalize it and tax the wallabies.

  23. Lascauxcaveman says at 11:27 am, June 25th, 2009

    WadISay: Actually, if you’ve ever seen a wallabee in real life, it’s about the cutest thing ever. This just makes me love them more.

    Oh man, you got that right. In my Australia vacation slides I’ve got the cutest shot of me drinking from the Snowy River, with a group of Wallabies doing the same thing about 20 feet upstream. Also hanging out streamside, an echidna and several exotic birds. All just chillin’ on the dusky riverside, looking for bugs to eat. (Except me).

  24. NoWireHangers says at 11:30 am, June 25th, 2009

    ManchuCandidate: All those characters were horrible addicts. Eeyore was a drunk, thus always horribly depressed. Pooh was a notorious binge eater (cough, stoner), Rabbit was always pissed, so he was probably going through withdrawal.

  25. Wet Work says at 11:32 am, June 25th, 2009

    Lascauxcaveman: FYI: in the future, try to drink upstream from the wallabees, if you don’t want to drink from the Yellow Snowy River.

  26. bitchincamaro says at 11:34 am, June 25th, 2009

    Lascauxcaveman: Sounds like a good time, but I’m not sure drinking downstream of those filthy buggers was a good idea.

  27. Wet Work says at 11:35 am, June 25th, 2009

    Wet Work: Yellow Snowy River. Heh.

  28. AKAM80TheWolf says at 11:38 am, June 25th, 2009

    Wallabees are the best

    I thought that we agreed yesterday that Argentinian meat is the best.

  29. hobospacejunkie says at 11:41 am, June 25th, 2009

    nappyduggs: I imagine wallabies, unlike some humans *clears throat* are able to get high now and again without it taking over their lives until their arms are raw, bloody and cracked with trackmarks, they’ve become unrecognizable to family and friends, their bank accounts are empty and their dealer is their only ‘friend.’

    Wait, what’re we talking about? Wallabies? Huh?

  30. DailyComicsReview says at 11:43 am, June 25th, 2009

    HELLO MSNBC! I WILL PAY YOU MONEY FOR THE VIDEO

  31. nappyduggs says at 12:04 pm, June 25th, 2009

    hobospacejunkie: My dear fellow Wonketteer, I suggest a soul and shaft cleansing trip down Argentine way for recharging.

  32. Animals are drug addicts. Check out cats trippin’ on the ‘nip:

  33. the cold war makes me hot says at 1:20 pm, June 25th, 2009

    nappyduggs: my english is not so good that early in the day. Also, my boobs get in the way.

  34. You can learn a lot about the mind of God by observing nature.

  35. wolfshirts says at 2:00 pm, June 25th, 2009

    I just hope they don’t pave roads on these paths like Boston did with livestock grazing.

  36. Mad Farmer Manifest says at 2:34 pm, June 25th, 2009

    hobospacejunkie: For all we know, some of these wallabies could have a problem. “I’m worried about Mikey. He just spends everyday at that field down there, getting wasted and hopping in circles.” I prefer to think that they are like cats or parrots: they’ll have some fun when it’s there, but they don’t seem to obsess about it the way we two-leggeds do.

    Common dope fiends, and group-sexin’ swingers too! I wanna be a wallaby in my next life.

  38. nappyduggs says at 7:08 pm, June 25th, 2009

    the cold war makes me hot: Lucky. Mine get in the way when I tie my shoes.

    Hennnnnghh?
