#1 Unpossible; did they not have a mask on?

Follow up would be to ask if it made the food taste better?

#4 In Gornal a thing, with its wife,
Was mildly enjoying its life
Under mask and surveillance
When unknown assailants
Attacked with a bloody great... pointy slicey whatsit the likes of which nobody in that lockdown sector had ever seen.

#5 It’s very queer... I googled the event, and out of all the articles, not one has any description of the sprayer, beyond apparent age and sex. You’d think someone would have at least mentioned his clothes or hair colour, especially after he turned himself in.

#7 The description is PC.
We're lucky they even used the gender term "Man"
instead of Person.

My local Newspaper, taken over by the owners of USA-Today, has gone as far photo-shopping the Criminals photo image to a silhouette. When I
UN-PC'd it it turn out to be a Black Teen that did the crime. I send it back to the editor corrected and they never updated the photo.

Same paper that has "Temporally' turned off commenting 10 months ago for any article.
In order to control the narrative and "accidental omissions and facts.

I had no idea that reversing the silhouette was possible, NoBody.
