I'm devastated!

Yeh I saw this on the news last night. Weak.

disappointed kangaroozilla voter here

the public really is retarted when it comes to making decisions :(

I voted for spaceship - the kangaroo is ugly as f***. The spaceship is pleasant looking.

It's better than having a lame kangaroo though. It's so f***ing stereotypical to put some Australian animal there.

nothing like wasting a whole bunch of money on a giant phallus.

People voted for which is the more gigantic, irrespective of design, creativity and relevance.

Were the voters american or something?

Well it will be easy to climb and if you get s*** all over it like wet toilet paper it will be a nightmare to get it off.

It's better than having a lame kangaroo though. It's so f***ing stereotypical to put some Australian animal there.

ITS NOT STEREOTYPICAL WHEN THE PLACE IS CALLED KANGAROO POINT

yes it is!

lols

LOLS MY FACEBOOK FAN PAGE WORKED

The spaceship is peasant looking.

bahaha mongie

Was there a "Why waste money on such s*** when the state government is billions of dollars in debt" option?


Because I would have voter that option.

Looks like a giant butt plug..

Giant Dog near my house is also controversial.
but i like it

when did they put that in?

thank god we didn't get some lame kangaroo

Dog (FIDO) has been there for years Konstie. Originally it was also going to give announcements about train times etc.
You can see the speaker holes if you get close, but not on googleview

More imporantly, how much did the stupid ass spiral cost?

Dumb idea for a lifeless boring object, giant kangaroo would have been heaps better, premier should have vettoed and put the kangaroo in, would have been the only good decision she has made.

Answer this question, are tourists going to take a picture next to a boring spiral thing or a giant kangaroo, I know which one i would take a picture of.

They should move that giant dog and put it near that giant spaceship and have it pee on it like some sick episode of power rangers.

I voted for the kangaroo, kids would have loved it unlike the giant wang "what's that daddy?" "Shush now billy, you can't tell anyone you saw it"

That kangaroo looks like s***e. If they did it in a cool way like the spaceship it would've won.

Weak. All of you c***s that voted for the giant wang should be ashamed.

Yeah the kangaroo looks like s***. If they did a proper kangaroo it'd have won easy.

That's lame - whether or not people like the 'spaceship' thing better than the kangaroo, NOONE will notice it there, whereas who wouldn't notice a f***ing godzilla kangaroo?! So much cooler.

The giant space ship won because the loonies in the church near it all had a big cry that the giant kangaroo would somehow take away from their beloved house of lies...... I have a friend who works in public works....it was just easier for them to give it to the space ship rather then fight the crazies....good ole relgion hey...is there nothing it cant f*** up?

wtf? How is a Kangaroo anti-religious?

would have been a winner imo

Its not that they thought it was 'anti-religious', more the fact it was too close. It just goes to show you how stupid some of these f***ers are. If anything tourists would have flocked to a giant kangaroo, and there may have even been some crazy tourists who might have seen the church and inquired further....but no....Instead we will construct some meaningless space ship that no one gives a flying f*** about....

Can wait for the first person to climb it and threaten to jump.

I dunno, maybe they made the right decision. The spaceship looks like something that could please a woman.

I liked that the Brisvegas city council slowly got rid of the various 'spacey' 1960/70s crap 1 or 2 decades ago.


it s***s me that enough peeps who heard about this voted for it... not anyone I met had even heard of it when I mentioned it. The space age was a joke people!


when I see 'spacey' art in public places it reminds me that Mr Joe Average is a retard in front of a computer and prefers to stay that way


and then he get uppity when dealing with IT support :/

my wife is a giant dog

someones sleeping on the couch tonight

How is that a space ship

i voted for the giant dong.. now i can look at it and think i helped f*** brisbane with it

muahahahaha

personally I think the roo won but anna needed the giant dong to pleasure herself with cause no one else would.

I'm glad the S5 got in
