This looks like it could happen on a model railway layout when the scenic builder runs out of one colour static grass. If the division is still sufficiently well done, all you need do when some rivet counter makes a fuss is show them this image and remind them of the model railway rule : theres a prototype for everything.

Lovely concept and so well executed... love how its possible to divide this into 2 and get such vast difference from one place.

No...
It has to do with the underlying fracture within Australian society as many, (bogans), finally come to the understanding that OUR "man -of-steel" has only the interests of his own contemporary historical value .. and he will win ..as they will not be able to read by then.

Any "organised" sport, religion, political party is inherently suspect to me ......even on a municipal level.. the fact that it's on "T.V." only means that money controls it .. ergo .. "IT'S ALL BULLSHIT"... but today... St. Kilda beat Collingwood by 10 ( yes, 10 = 60 points ) goals.. (that's a parochial, primal response to a native... since childhood, affection for St. Kilda, but I heard it in real time on radio ....first)
Still .. the thrall of a tribe ........

i have had that kind of social "glue" growing up. my family kept me mostly hidden away and i fell into that "mode" of existence of being disconnected. i understand it all intellectually but i'm rather ambiguous to it all emotionally. i don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing but it has protected me a good deal. when i try to jam my round peg into the triangular hole of society i always seem to feel more left out than if i had simply stayed out to begin with. i'll tell you what though... the political lunacy aside, i'm a big Formula 1 fan. i know. i'm a hypocrite but at least i don't follow silly american games called "football" yet are played primarily with the "hands". christ we're fucked up. lol

Yep........ !
Understand all that..... but if you "ken" The Goons"..... in AFL..St. Kilda beating Collingwood has a peculiar pleasure.......( St. Kilda has only won one Premiership ( the top accoalde in this league)....many years ago ....by one solitary point.. the most marginal result possible... against C' wood....)
I listen / watch with tribal, dislocated interest, as the behomouth of Kapital and T.V. devours the life of what once a good "game"........ between neighbours...
Been there, done that........?

amazing how the misspelling of a single, seemingly insignificant word can change the meaning of an entire paragraph.
i meant "haven't" had that kind of social glue. oh dear... i've lost the game before it's even begun. at any rate. in the U.S. the tribal equivalent is called NASCAR, born of rum running in the days of prohibition. round and round in perpetual circles they go for hours whilst the beer companies lambaste you with their overwhelming marketing machinery and toss free six packs to ten year olds on the lawns round the track. cigarette sponsorship, however, is forbidden. it all makes perfectly good sense. oh my...

.....our Federal Govt..... has decided that tobacco sponsorship of Formula 1 is o.k...... but then the Liberals (Right-Wing, Conservative, similar to your republicans but without the mind boggling self belief of god being as stupid as they are ) have historically always seen themselves as only assistant-managers to larger powers....... apart from a when they have to answer for bribes to Saddam for wheat sales.... then, "We know nuffin' guv'ner...!"
Don't feel bad about yourself....... others with more culpability are faring far worse......
