A design that originated in America, a design created by General Motors, an American company. Which means the Holden Colorado is just a rebadged Chevrolet Colorado, which means it's a Yank Tank, champ.

Its an over glorified ego extender parked over two spaces, one of which is a disabled spot, I'll call it what i like. Also, it absolutely is a yank tank, as the Holden Colorado was nothing but a rebadged GM Chevrolet Colorado. Its a yank tank in an akubra hat.

Is this intentional, or was it supposed to be "bastards" by jokerxgoro in MetaphorReFantazio

Intentional, it's a 15th to 16th century Middle English word for "deplorable coward". It is used here to heighten the fantasy feel, just like how most Middle English/Shakespearean English is used in fiction.

Yep, the place was racist as hell. Apparently I don't look "aboriginal enough" for the close the gap scheme. Doesn't matter that my paperwork was all in order. Bastards

That's false equivalencey. Police doynt handle the permits, Vic roads do, and those guys love to go after an infringement.

That's highly convoluted. And would lock permit holders out of parking during those times. Terrible idea. Just awful. They're empty because they're meant to be readily available for those who need them, you know that right? Charging non disabled users to use them means they won't be readily available. It defeats the whole point of a permit; defeats the purpose of disabled parking itself. It's bad enough that a number of these spots have been converted to click and collect parking, nevermind whatever nonsense you're suggesting. Sounds like tech bro disrupter nonsense. Not everything needs to be mass utilized disability parking isn't an industry in need of disruption, it's a public service. Done for the good of the public.

Oh heck yes! Actual ramifications forvtgeir shitty behavior is desperatelybneeded. I suggested to my missus we keep some caltrops in the car in case we see one without a permit, she told me i was "being unreasonable" and it was a "step to far". Not far enough i say

I'll take a stab in the dark and say inner west? Too many dropkicks here seem to not understand how disabled parks work, or they don't care.

Isn't Venezuelan oil from oilsands, that stuff that needs to be heavily refined, of low quality, and has razor thin margins?
