The unspoken rules of ATM behaviour were blithely
disregarded yesterday, as public relations consultant Jerri Cuthbert, 23,
withdrew a total of $210 from various bank accounts during what onlookers
described as "a complete disregard for her fellow man". "I don't know how she
was raised," said disgruntled queuer Nick Mendes. "But I was always taught not
to waste everyone's lunch hour with on-screen account balances."

The federal government's $53 million anti-bingeing campaign
has had an inspirational effect on teenagers, psyching them up to get together
and drink large quantities of alcohol. Year 10 student Wayne Greer has spoken
on behalf of his peers: "Flickering lights, wasted chicks everywhere and a
punch-up on the street – if tonight is half as messy as that ad, I'll be
stoked."

Churches around the nation have reported a sharp decline in
attendance following the revelation of a dogma-shattering item of clothing. The
T-shirt, which bears a humorously blasphemous slogan, is believed to have
undermined the core tenets of 2000 years of Christianity. "Our faith has
survived persecution, child abuse allegations and the Spanish Inquisition,"
said Archbishop George Pell. "But this garment has proven too strong for Jesus
Christ."

rulebooks and dice, have gathered outside Dungeons & Dragons creator

Frustrated film buffs have reported that recent advances in laser
technology have had no discernible impact on the quality of 2003's Ben Affleck-Jennifer Lopez romantic comedy Gigli. "Those Blu-Ray ads led me to
believe anything I watched would include samurai warriors and awesome blue beams
of light, not appalling dialogue and tacked-on romantic subplots," complained PS3 owner Ian Murphy. "If anything, Gigli sucks even more in high definition."

Bowing to pressure from fellow Republicans, conservative media pundits
and his numerous spouses, devout Mormon Mitt Romney announced he was no
longer contesting the presidency. “If I’d stayed in, I'd have made it
easier for Senator Clinton or Barack Obama to win. And in this time of
war, I simply cannot let my campaign be a part of aiding a surrender to
terror,” he said. “Also, my third wife is trying for another child, and
I really need to be around the compound when she's ovulating.”

Investment banker Rob Garrus, a deeply slothful man when it
comes to routine household chores, has been watching the spring/summer
ready-to-wear collections like a hawk, hoping black-clad fashionistas declare
unironed clothes to be in this season. "As soon as they give it the nod," he
said, "I'll be sleeping in an extra 12 minutes every day."
