Australia has five million baby boomers. Seventy-one-year-old Michael Thornton is one of them. He is so pissed off about the state of things,

he's listed 3,300 gripes.

greed
when the pathology nurse says, with a deep sigh, 'Let's try your other arm!'

wanting to know if Dynamic Lifter works the same as Viagra
asking for a friend
