@tsarstepan,
Toes up.

Can also be further euphemized as "tango uniform".

@hingehead,
Wait a second... isn't Townsville the city whom the Powderpuff Girls swear the allegiance of protection?

Are you telling me that the Powderpuff Girls were dead all along? And that they were fighting crime and the forces of evil ... in the ...[ gulp] afterlife? Sad

Say it ain't so Hingehead!

@tsarstepan,
Oh you silly Tsar Powerpuff Townsville is fictional - the one I refer to is 350km to the south of Cairns and is as inevitable as death.
