“Signs zip by—Stop, Revive, Survive—because apparently I’m too stupid to know I’m not dead yet.”
Reminded me of every time I see the incessant number of “SLOW DOWN” neon signs flashing the cute little pet icon as I drive just about everywhere these days.
So well said, Kenelm. And once you see it, you can never unsee it. It's everywhere in Aus. Everything is infected by government. Even when it's time to go to sleep, Australia is one of the only countries in the world where you cannot buy a basic, harmless melatonin tablet. You need a prescription and compounding pharmacy to sell you a $0.01c pill for $2-$3. But most doctors would prefer to prescribe you an antidepressant or valium, because they don't know whether the government will investigate them for prescribing the most absurdly benign supplement on earth.

Great article, Kenelm.
Incessant, indeed. Cheers Gerardine.

"You can never unsee it". This is so true, Damon.
“…the unflushable turd of modern existence,” what a line! Had me in stitches.
We aim to please, Jonathan!
