A bit animal themed for this worstoff. Meccano in Melbourne saw this truck of dogs. there are more in the cab apparently.
Also in Melbourne (but I think these are nationwide) Graham saw this. “There is something about using the Australian coat of arms as the symbol for a piss stop hand dryer that just makes this feel like a Worst of.” Thanks Graham, but the fact that the emu has no hands to dry and is standing around like a spare Chong at a wedding makes it worst for me.
On a similar theme, Netwir saw this at The Narrogin bottleshop.netwirb says, “I’m not sure if the Kangaroo’s foot is on fire and the numbat is trying to extinguish it with his tongue, or if the kangaroo is just kicking the shit out of him.” Right on.
And one more from Cimbali’s trip to the Flag Inn sculpture prison.
And I took this in Barrack Street just because I know you like saying “Clam”. Not a bad Weekend Worstoff. Worst well this weekend.
The Worst of Perth 
Discreet thanks, TLA. I guess this is marginally better than Royal Robbins Radeau Camel Toe.
p.s. I’ve been saving this one for an animal theme.

I am also vehemently opposed to agreeing with Queensland on any issue.
Mainly I voted yes just so the young people would like me. It seems to be working so far and Mr Cimbali is keeping very quiet so they don’t turn on him like a pack of wolves.
