No, your mum is a title.
Evidently, the "your mum" insult is still alive and well in the vocabulary of our young people. You know what I mean:
In other news, The Government gags debate on more legislation. Makes a mockery of the Parliament, really. You know, for a place with a name that derives from the French parler ('to speak') and parlement ('discussion'), not much of it is going on. They should just go ahead and rename for what it is - the House of Coalition Wankery.
Also, a bunch of people want to deport naturalized Australian citizens if they're convicted of terrorist offence. That's a typical reaction, isn't it? "Lets send them back to where they came from".
Sure, we were generous and gracious enough to give them the opportunity to be Australian, but once we've done that, they're our responsibility. If an Australian breaks Australian law, they should be tried in the Australian judicature and if found guilty, should be dealt with in an Australian penitentiary. We can't just wash our hands of them when it suits us.
If we allow such expulsions, we effectively create two classes of citizens: the natural-born and the naturalized - one set we have to deal with here, while the others we can simply send away. It goes against everything Australians allegedly stand for. You know, 'egalitarianism' and all. Although if you ask my fellow countrymen about problems so commonly associated with 'new Australians', a few of them will probably say send them back, which in my view is disgraceful. We're all once class of citizens in this country, each with equals rights to be here.
In any case, where are we going to send them away to? Who will take them in?

Evidently, the "your mum" insult is still alive and well in the vocabulary of our young people. You know what I mean:
Boy One: That maths exam anally arse raped me in the butt.Erm, well no, that conversation I eavesdropped on during my train trip yesterday didn't actually mention being anally arse raped in the butt but it would've been funny it had went that way. Dopey kid, that Boy Two. (Incidently, the anally-arse-raped bit actually came from Pat after the physics exam on Tueday. Heh.)
Boy Two: No, your mum anally arse raped you in the butt.
