The day after we of the Democratic Ruthless Bastards Party seize control of the means of production we will be tasking the Sweeney with tracking down the people who:
  • Pluck items from supermarket shelves, and
  • Peer at them myopically, and
  • Put them back somewhere other than where they originated
and smashing up their living rooms on a basis both frequent and regular until they get the message and emigrate.

Its the myopia. Shhh, don’t tell him.

With an added hundred lines for those scallywags who pick up Object A, then notice a short date version of Object A on the Dead Food Shelf, take the short date reduced with bright yellow sticker version and leave the full price version in its place. The jolly funsters that they are.
