One of the few good things about the neo-Nazi porn salesman Darrin Hodges<\/a><\/em> — apart from his handsome face: yeah, that’s him up there — is his conviction that he’s quite a clever fellow. The fact that he’s actually quite a daft bugger makes his pathetic attempts at critique all the more amusing. Thus, Hodges writes:<\/p>\n

Andrew Morgan of Melbourne, aka ‘@ndy'[,] is a liar.<\/p>\n

Yes, I’m sure you would all be surprised at the fact that [a] fightdemback.com<\/a> forum member could be a liar, but I’m afraid it’s true. You see, in his blog… Andrew does in fact tell<\/a> a porky:<\/p>\n

Seriously though: I can only assume that your reference to my \u201cbrother\u201d is a result of something Ben Weerheym<\/a><\/em> claimed on his now deleted blog \u2018Leftywatch\u2019<\/a>. To cut a long story short: any and all information regarding my \u201cbrother\u201d was provided to Ben by aketus<\/a><\/em>, posing as \u2018cricket guy 88\u2032 (or something similar). The story aketus relayed to Ben revolved around my having a non-existent brother<\/strong>, who was described as being both an ex-bikie, an ex-con, and as having a great deal of love for his family. Anyway, the \u2018evidence\u2019 for this \u201cbrother\u201d was to be based on the non-existent minutes taken at a non-existent meeting of a non-existent group, the \u2018Geelong Anarchist Group\u2019\u2026 or \u2018GAG\u2019 for short.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Well, it’s not quite true[.] [S]ee, way back in January 2005, Andrew posted this<\/a> on his older blog:<\/p>\n

Looking after my brother Jamie’s house this last week-and-a-half, I (re-)discovered an Australian rock classic: Dave Warner’s From the Suburbs<\/a><\/strong>! To be precise, Mug’s Game<\/em>, from which the following, achingly [ha!] accurate lines are drawn…<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

But wait, [there’s] more, the trusty blog search also reveals an extra nugget of information:<\/p>\n

Looking after my brother Jamie’s house in Mitcham this last week-and-a-half, I (re-)discovered an Australian rock classic: Dave’s Warner’s From the Suburbs<\/a><\/strong>! To be precise, Mug’s Game<\/em>… [snip]<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

[So] he looked after the non-existent house of his non-existent brother?<\/p>\n

[H]mmm, pants on fire.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Honestly, Darrin, you’re a very silly man. I mean, gee whiz, has it ever occurred to you that I have a family? Brothers? Sisters even? Shit, the way you blokes carry on about decreasing fertility rates among whites, you’d reckon mum ‘n’ dad deserved a medal, not harassment!<\/p>\n

So, for the benefit of stupid buggers like Darrin: the fairy tale revolves not around the fact that — eeek! who woulda thunk it!<\/em> — I have family<\/em>, but that I have a brother as described<\/em>. Of course, the supposed fact that I have a brother named Jamie who lives in Mitcham is not especially relevant… is it? Well, unless Darrin believes that this may constitute a possible means through which to embarrass or intimidate me.<\/p>\n

Which is a very dangerous assumption: at best<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Still, when all’s said and done, it’s like what Jewish singer-songwriter Lou Reed<\/a><\/em>‘s painter friend Donald said<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Stick a fork in their ass and turn them over, they’re done.<\/em><\/p>\n
