Stupid things to do with your sunnies when there is no sun.

October 21, 2017 By SALEM EDWARDS Leave a Comment Filed Under: Silly stuff

Where would we be without our sunnies? Imagine a hot, glary day at the beach without the protection of our Smiths, Ray Bans or Oakleys. They not only protect our eyes and help us to feel good but they also make us look good! That being said, sometimes when the sun goes behind the clouds some people find things to do with sunglasses that make you want to go up to them headbutt them. Well, actually I am a pacifist. Let’s be satisfied with giving them a good wack on the back of the head with a rolled up newspaper.

Here Surfer Tippy shows models nine ways to NEVER wear your sunglasses. Over to you Tips!

Lets start easy. This look is almost acceptable. But not really. “See… I have really expensive sunglasses!”

“Yeah… I’m a nong for owning a truckers cap… but the sunnies worn on the front makes it look better.”

“How fresh does wearing sunnies like a necklace look? Oi! Look at me! Look at me!”

For straight out mind-numbing nongishness I reckon the Cousin It wearing a truckers cap with sunnies on the back look is pretty hard to beat.

Nup. This is definitely the best. Nothing beats the “Hey look… my sunnies are actually a beard,” look.

The Cousin It wearing sunnies look is brilliant… if you are Cousin It. If you are, just leave the sunnies on top of your head.

Simply speechless. Have no idea what to say about this other than aaahhhhhhhh!

Special thanks to volunteer model Tipani Demouche and her excellent poses.

When Socrates found out that Rugby League legend Wally Lewis had pulled off an outrageous State of Origin scam without a soul even realizing, it occurred to him that sometimes pulling a swifty should be tolerated.

Wallaby v France test – the moment that soared above all the others

July 20, 2021 By SOCRATES Leave a Comment

There were many great moments in the final Wallabies versus France rugby test last week but according to Socrates, one stood our far above all the others. Was it a great try? A brilliant tackle? A perfect scrum or line-out? A fantastic bit of work at the break-down? According to the rotund Greek hooker it was none of those things. He reckons that the highlight of the game was a much quieter, simpler and more subdued moment. A moment that might have escaped the attention of millions of spectators.

So Easy To Make Hasty Judgements – Angel Reese vs Catilin Clark

December 12, 2023 By SOCRATES NEWS DESK Leave a Comment

Is the behavior of some elite athletes judged more harshly than others because of their make-up, their nails, their eyelashes, and their personal style? My own reaction to the most recent NCAA women’s basketball tournament final and the shenanigans of one LSU star player in the final moments of the game had me wondering. At the very least the public reaction to these few seconds of hard-core “trash-talking” should remind us that we should not make hasty judgements about individuals on flimsy information. Always consider the full context.

Surfers and melanoma – how great is the risk?

November 21, 2024 By TIMOTHY EDWARDS Leave a Comment

We all know that surfers are at greater risk of skin cancer than the average non-surfer. It’s obvious. They spend more time in the sun. Should that be of real concern to surfer? Is it really that big a risk? Recent research from Southern Cross University indicates that it is a way bigger risk than most surfers… and people… imagine. Going through treatment for skin cancer lesions, even when the treatment is successful, is not fun. Surfers should be aware of the risks and take precautions. Click the pic to get the full story.

“Pressure? Pressure is a Messerschmidt up your arse. Playing cricket is not!”

Keith Miller

One of the greatest cricket “all-rounders” of all time, Keith Miller was not only an exceptional performer in multiple elements of test cricketing (batting, bowling and fielding) but he was also gifted in numerous other aspects of his life. Witty, entertaining, handsome, a renowned war time pilot and gifted Australian Rules Footballer, Miller was famed for calling a spade a spade and acknowledging that there was much more to life than elite sports. Having flown fighter bombers in the Second World War under life threatening circumstances he was not one to take the “pressure” of high level sport too seriously!
