Eggcepted!
Eggcellent pun.
How long do you think it will be before he asks for sympathy for himself, after having given none for the murdered victims?
The kid did the right thing.
I must admit to checking whether I could fly to Brissy, stopping only to buy some eggs on the way, and still make it in time.
Now if I could only get a babysitter here at 4.00am…
Wasting food is never the right thing.
That egg was not wasted; it was used for valuable and meaningful political commentary through action!
However, I would not be opposed to people using a dog turd or something similar the next time.
One can always hope that it was a thoroughly rotten egg.

I’m surprised it only took five white supremacist goons to subdue that teenager. Safety in numbers and all that.
That’s not an egg… this is an egg.
(I’m sorry but I just had to make that joke)
Amazingly gutsy of that kid to go into a meeting of nazis and egg their leader. #EggBoy is a hero.
Not exactly subtle irony. Last year:
This fuckwit got into the senate with 19 primary votes, replacing a different fuckwit who got in with 77 primary votes but was late found ineligible to be a senator. Generally I’m a fan of preferential voting, but when it screws up it does so big time.
As always, there’s a link to some fun history:
