      We don’t have burger king in Australia. Its called hungry jacks. There was another chain called burger king, now gone, and burger king bought an existing chain called hungry jacks. So it would work!

        And back in the 90s, Hungry Jack’s had a set of mascots called the Kids’ Club that had something to do with their kid meals. One of them was a kid in a wheelchair named Wheels.

    how about we deport our prisoners to Australia. We’re not animals though, so we’ll load the ships with a bunch of rabbits to sustain them until they settle in.

      Are you implying that we should be counting atlanteans, cetaceans, the nightmare corpse-city of R’lyeh, and the mole people? I don’t think they much care about being left out.
