Only in Parklands…

An Angolan fishery named after Portugals prodigal son, Cristiano Ronaldo...Only in Parklands!

Hmm, I wonder if I feel like Hake or Kingklip tonight?

I am not sure if you are familiar with the fact that humans rip off Portuguese people about being fish shop owners and fisherman, but if you aren’t, that is just what happens. Do not ask me why or when this started, I just know it as the way the world works 😉 I just stole this picture from Facebook as a Porra mate of mine uploaded it. Apparently it is an Angolan Fishery, named after Portugal’s prodigal son, Cristiano Ronaldo. Think about naming your fishery after a soccer player? Um, ya as I said only in Parkland’s…

      I know that. But to name a fishery after a football player who is not from your country? Fuck it to name a fishery after a football player…I can think of quite a few more original ones!

    Perhaps you should change ur slogan to ‘exposing myself as a bullshit blogger’.

    The owner of the above eatery is as portuguese as they come.

    Clearly u did absolutely ZERO investigating on the matter, but couldn’t wait to post what u heard through the grapevine up on ur visit-once-and-never-bother-returning site.

    Rewriting articles that u have come across on various websites in ur own simplistic form of journalism as well as the above example of slander without correct information depicts one who is lazy and shouldn’t really bother having a say unless for self indulgant reasons.

    Or perhaps u write ur articles on a monday, having left ur brains all stomped out on the dancefloor of the latest trance party, still festering in mdma??

      Um not really an MDMA fan hey, to be honest never done the stuff. This picture was taken by a person on Twitter, which I felt a lot of my readers might have a laugh at. Which many of them did and mentioned the fishery to me on various occasions.

      Sorry our content doesn’t interest you that you do not return to view other articles but obviously it doesn’t appeal to your specific tastes. Just as GHD’s, ppl like you and ciggarettes don’t appeal to me 😉 Have a great day but if you have nothing nice to say at all, rather do as you say and don’t return read, obviously you aren’t a reader that I am after anyway Tom Jones…

      Awe

    ‘Um not really an MDMA fan hey, to be honest never done the stuff’-Bull.

    ‘This picture was taken by a person on Twitter..’- Prob bull.

    ‘…which I felt a lot of my readers might have a laugh at.’ – laughing at false information at the expense of an innocent party.

    ‘Sorry our content doesn’t interest you that you do not return..’ -content is fine, i can find it anywhere on the web, 3 days before ur version is slapped together.

    ‘Just as GHD’s, ppl like you and ciggarettes don’t appeal to me..’ – instead of mudslinging i hoped a correction of ur error would APPEAL to u.Thus according u some credibility..Clearly credibilty APPEALS to u as much as a ghd sale.

    ‘..obviously you aren’t a reader that I am after anyway..’- im surprised there is any reader who enjoys a fabricated article like the one above.I assume your readership is little more than ur circle of friends who look past it and support u in ur dream of being a succesful blogger telling u how brilliant u are in ur writings and keeping quiet when u err.
    And thats fine, but if u really are any good u’ll look for the positive in my criticism. the above article is a close to a yarn as u get, spinning yarn’s kills a writer’ credibility, as a writer what’s more important than ur credibility?
    anyways, use it or throw mud back at me…ur choice have a nice day urself 🙂

      Dude to be honest I am not here to rant at u personally but when u start publishing that I take MDMA when I do not and never have you are bringing my image under threat. That can be backed by any of my friends who properly know me. The photo was taken by @danictr360 and was from Twitter/FB. So already it seems you are the bullshit commentor and not me, after you labelled me “the bullshit blogger”.

      I understand where you are coming from 100% and thanks for the feedback. It is a funny picture and I am not a newspaper writer my man. I am a blogger who is not a newspaper journo and therefore do not need to publish facts on a constant basis. Some articles on more funny/laid back topics I do not put hours or research into but rather take a different spin on it. Thanks for advice but you obv also need to do some research and get ur facts straight too Tom beacuse you have published some false information too unfortunately. Bit of a hipocrite!

    Wow Tommy dude, i reckon you need to chill out bro. This article was obviously intended for a light hearted laugh. You’re definately taking it too seriously… Hope you’re not this angry and serious all the time. Life’s too short, chill out…

      Thank you Carl, at least there are some people out there that understand what blogging is about. Freedom of speech and opinion, within boundries of coarse 😉

    @Tommy Sierra-Jonas, Whoooooaaah, slow down there big guy – your original comment was the following:

    “The owner of the above eatery is as portuguese as they come.

    Clearly u did absolutely ZERO investigating on the matter, but couldn’t wait to post what u heard through the grapevine up on ur visit-once-and-never-bother-returning site.”

    In my opinion, I am sure the owner is Portuguese – Hell, Im sure his name is probably Ronaldo as well.

    From all of your comments, it looks like you are quite a big return visitor – having used examples from quite a few of the articles

    In concluding, I reckon youre the jealous guy who has been waiting to vent his frustrations on this blogs author because you just cant stop coming back.

    This blogs a bit like Howard Stern for you – you dont like it but you keep coming back to see what is said next

    thanks for your time
