Also, are chicks allowed to go topless? If not, I'd like to see more of that.

The UK is initiating a one-year military program. I would like to see something similar in Canada. Call it grade 13 and have it count towards entrance requirements for University, trades , or any other continuing education.

Oh man, I remember going to the pools in Budapest when I was a young 23 yr old soldier.

In fact I think all of Budapest was allergic to bras.

I think that is a proposal Sunak put out there in his re-election campaign yesterday.

I’m getting the impression you’re not in favour of it? Remember how much you matured in boot camp?

I didn't even think of that one. You want to donate a dollar for children's dildos? Fata you!

I'd like to ban volume discount pricing on consumer/retail goods (which I realize could probably never work).

I want to buy 4 hot dog buns, not those crappy bulk ones that disintegrate when touching. Those end up being 2 cents cheaper than a giant 14 pack (fata them with that sizing). OK, I'll get the 14 pack and immediately throw away 8 because fata you.

You get a simple breakfast, here's a half loaf of toast. Can i say no toast and I save 10 cents? Nope. Bring it out with a garbage can then. I actually grab the toast after its handed to me and ask them to throw it out.

Why does the world cater to the pigs? Can I have 10 fries with that burger? Nope, here's four potatoes worth. I want a medium coke. Well for 15 cents more you can add a litre and a half of coke. May as well and just dump it out.

Shouldn't be financially rewarded for being a wasteful pig.

I’m stumped. Can’t think of a single thing I’d want to change.

Sell the Arctic Islands to the US, and use the money to pay off our debt, and raise our GDP spending on Defense to 2%.

IANAL, but for the most part, technically, yes...toplessness is not illegal. There are some finer definitions that lawyers and courts would get into, but for the most part, if a woman wants to walk around topless, she can.

Let’s give lambeburger the benefit of doubt. Maybe there’s no intended malice and he just truly believes that the government is the one employer who you can truly trust to look out for your best interests.
