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. Among them: • otherwise bright folk, from the PM down, who say 'amount' of people instead of 'number' • Australia's richest person is said to earn $33,000 per minute • being beaten at Scrabble by his Filipina mother-in-law, English being her second language • leaf blowers • lowlife who put needles in fruit to try and kill us • greed • when the pathology nurse says, with a deep sigh, 'Let's try your other arm!' • Michelangelo didn't endow David a little more generously • the link between his dentist's fees to extract his teeth, and the dentist's kids' school fees • wanting to know if Dynamic Lifter works the same as Viagra • asking for a friend • the exorbitant cost of building Australia's major roads:$155 per inch per lane • wanting cave rescuers Drs. Richard Harris and Craig Challen as joint Governors-General • will the in-studio panel on ABC TV Insiders ever drink the coffee? • half a large pizza is never enough • not knowing how to use most of the functions on his phone • five-year-olds, who get away with murder • after coronavirus, the millennials plan to do away with all remaining baby boomers
