A boat party to prove that Labour is a magnet for the young and super-hip

I’m guessing that Something Fishy Mizzi had no reason to report this to the police. May the Lord deliver us from the sight, sound and effects of the seriously uncool trying desperately to be cool (an inherent contradiction) – a sentiment about which I feel as passionately now as I did 30 years ago.
Times change but frigging nerds certainly don’t. It’s incredible, isn’t it – you’d have thought they’d have found a cure by now.

It looks like some party thrown by trailer thrash.
[Daphne – What are you on about? It IS some party thrown by trailer trash.]
This non-police photographer went to the correct boat not to that other drug-suspect yacht that must not be named.
I’m 21 years old and I just can’t understand how distressed and preoccupied these people seem to be. Not only those who are older than my parents but even the young ones.
They all make an effort to smile at the cameras, pose, dress-up and keep up conversation. It’s like they are trying to fit in someone else’s shoes.
A message to all: being young is all about being effortless and carefree. Being natural. It has to be in you. If you don’t have it, tough luck. Oh and it lasts until you’re..say 25. After that you’re no longer a ‘zaghzugh’.
We’re over 30, but we have no responsibilities, because mummy and daddy pay all the bills. We have decent paycheques, because in the 90s university was really open to everyone.
So we have a lifestyle. Look at me in my sexy outfit.
These are my contemporaries. Sad, very sad.
Joseph Muscat is 38 and describes himself as a ‘zaghzugh’.
Chavtastic.
Arrested development and failing to grow up and mature is not the same as acquiring some desirable eternal youth.
FFS! The photo before last is enough to make me want to vote PN for the rest of my life.
I’m so upsat det I didn’t make it to dis party, my gad.
God, even Cyrus in horizontal stripes? Basta kellhu sense of fexxin xi darba.
“They all make an effort to smile at the cameras, pose, dress-up”
Dress up? methinks not….
Thanks for giving us a glimpse of the freak show.
The ‘In Crowd’ photo is particularly disturbing. X’ jagħfas fuqhom bħal iljunfant fis-saħna.
An update on Maltese social mobility: Now we’re seaborne.
One of the photos reminds me of VH1’s Rock Star … Anti Rock Star feature.
Let them enjoy themselves, poor souls. If it hadn’t been for the policies of successive Nationalist governments, they would be wearing boiler-suits and working in the dockyard for the minimum wage, with not a cent to spare for ‘kapricci’.
Now that’s real social mobility.
Tander Saliba: some background info.

Daphne, how did you miss the male hair-flick (no, not Herr Flick) on the bottom land corner of the “horizontal stripes” photo?
I see you didn’t. He’s got a close-up with his tongue, too.
Milli qed nara kien hemm hafna hbieb ta’ Cyrus.
Love me Tander
Just look at that guy in stripes in front of Cyrus Engerer. Cyrus must have felt so great as part of that super-stylish crowd.
Malta is full of chavs.
Common mortals doing everyday stuff all other common mortals do from time to time, if you ask me. Including horizontal stripes.
No Joseph*. No Party. :(
*Joseph Muscat
Where is JPO ? He would have felt at home with this crowd.
