McKinney, Texas: Believe it or not, here’s another one of those “only-in-Australia” stories

August 30, 2020 Jim 3 Comments

Our next door neighbor owns every tool in the world and he’s very generous with them. Jamie doesn’t trust me with power tools, but allowed me to borrow Rico’s pressure washer only on the condition that he give me detailed lessons on how to use it. He told me all I needed to know in one short sentence: “Be very careful because the pressurized stream of water can cut right through your shoes and take your toes off.”

Which brings us to this recent only-in-Australia story from the 9 Network:

A naked man has decided a Sunshine Coast car and dog wash would be the perfect place for a late-night shower.

In video recorded on August 16, the man is seen receiving a high-pressure hose down from a mate in one of the washing bays.

The owner of the car wash shared the footage on their Facebook page and wished the man a “speedy recovery”.

Not to cast any aspersions on Aussie men, but it happened on a Saturday night so I’m willing to risk a considerable number of Australian dollars that there may have been a bit of alcohol involved in the pre-car wash activities.

NOTE: I would be willing to make the same bet on any Sunday-Friday night.

      For American readers: “Bogan” is the Aussie slang version of redneck.
