If you could set up some sort of public humiliation ceremony in the city for a Melbourne celebrity – who would it be, and why?
C’mon, everyone’s got their favourite Melbourne twat they love to hate. So here’s your chance to convince everyone else.
By the way, this is the last question for April – so go back over the last month’s posts, and vote on the comments you like best. The most popular answer on each post will be announced shortly!
If you’re having a rough day and find yourself stuck in the city – where do you escape to?
Is there a secluded bar or cafe that makes for a great little hideaway?
Perhaps there’s a certain little spot of a particular park around the city that’s brilliant to chill out in.
Or maybe you’ve found a hidden location inside a public building that makes for a great quiet thinking place.
HEY! It could happen if they get low enough ratings and need to run a special series in Australia! Baywatch did it, and that was ALL class.
So what’s the Melbourne-based disaster that Jack Bauer and the CTU crew would avert – or fail to avert?
Who knows how they start, but everyone’s heard a great Melbourne urban legend.
Maybe it’s true, maybe it’s clearly been proven wrong… maybe it’s such a scary urban legend that you’re just not sure what to think. We’ve heard them all – ghosts, graveyards, strange happenings from Melbourne history coming back to haunt us…
Reckon you’ve heard a corker Melbourne urban legend from a mate – the kind of thing you’d read about on Snopes? Let everyone know here, and, er… continue the misinformation!
Oh boy, I’m going to hope that everyone’s minds aren’t in the gutter, and this doesn’t turn out to be the worst question I’ve added…
So – if you could turn invisible, what would you do in Melbourne?
Would you sneak into the halls of state parliament and observe the secret goings-on behind closed doors?
Perhaps you’d spend your time tripping over public transport ticket inspectors.
Or should I simply acknowledge the fact that most of you would head straight to the changerooms of your favourite sporting team, to watch everyone in the showers?
After you’ve lived in a suburb long enough, you begin to accumulate a few local’s secrets.
Maybe it’s a hidden store, scenic spot, or hard-to-find pub that only locals know about.
Perhaps it’s an awesome shop or cafe that treats the regular locals particularly well.
Is there a certain local way of doing certain things in your area?
Or perhaps you’ve got a celebrity living nearby that everyone knows about, but keeps tight-lipped about.
Every Melbourne suburb has its own local’s secrets – but maybe it’s time to share the knowledge around with others…
Got a hot tip on something interesting happening on this long weekend?
Are you planning to take it easy? If so – how?
Maybe you’re planning to visit somewhere different in Melbourne over the break – where?
Melbourne has its fair share of bizarre architecture – what do you reckon is the ugliest?
Perhaps you consider Federation Square to be the modern architectural equivalent of a technicolour yawn.
Maybe it’s something ancient and disastrous from decades gone by, that just has you scratching your head as to why it was created in the first place.
More than likely, there’s some disastrous shambles of a building in your local suburb which should have been destroyed long ago.
