‘Drive-in Cafes. Drive-In Football Stadiums. Drive-in Universiti S. Drive-In Everything. You Know It Makes Sense'
I went into a drive-through Bunnings for the first time the other day. For those who haven’t experienced the sheer delight of it, you bypass the parking lot and drive straight into the lumber department, so you can load planks straight into your car, then just drive away, while the staff run behind you shouting about “paying for it”, or something. I dunno, I had the stereo up pretty loud.

Stretch your legs out in front of you but hold your left foot back slightly. Now extend that left leg whilst simultaneously retracting your right leg slightly. Not too tricky, yeah?

‘WE DESERVE A GOVERNMENT THAT IS NO LONGER PERMITTED TO CALL A REVENUE-RAISING ACTIVITY A SAFETY INITIATIVE'
ALL OF A SUDDEN, shizz got real. Science called it a pandemic; those who look to Alcoa for their millinery requirements called it a hoax. And, from what I’ve seen, governments have hugged it to their sweaty, yeasty bosoms as a means of making untruths compelling. But never naming it so. Of course.
