A misogynist, a sociopath and a liar walk into a bar.
Barman: What’ll you have, Mr Abbott?
(From PBX)
Tony Abbott was visiting a primary school and he walked into one of the classes. They were in the middle of a discussion on words and their meanings. The teacher asked the prime minister if he would like to lead the discussion on the word ‘tragedy’ so our illustrious prime minister asked the class for an example of a ‘tragedy’.
One little boy stood up and offered: ‘If my best friend, who lives on a farm, is playing in the paddock and a tractor runs over him and kills him, that would be a tragedy?
‘No,’ said Abbott, ‘that would be an accident.’
A little girl raised her hand: ‘If a school bus carrying 50 children drove over a cliff, killing everyone inside, that would be a tragedy.’
‘I’m afraid not,’ explained Abbott ‘That’s what we would call a great loss.’
The room went silent. No other children volunteered. Abbott searched the room. ‘Isn’t there someone here who can give me an example of a tragedy?’
Finally at the back of the room, Little Johnny raised his hand. In a quiet voice he said: ‘If the plane carrying you was struck by a ‘friendly fire’ missile and blown to smithereens that would be a tragedy.’
‘Fantastic!’ exclaimed Abbott . ‘That’s right.. And can you tell me why that would be a tragedy?
‘Well,’ says the boy, ‘It has to be a tragedy, because it certainly wouldn’t be a great loss… and it probably wouldn’t be a fuc king accident either”.
