There are not masked Aucklanders enjoying fresh air in this photo. There is one, singular mask-wearing person.

 

That's because they took the photo on Tamaki Drive. If they'd taken it further along on Cliff Road the people would have been wearing masks.

Could be two.  The blurred-out person just to the right of the sign post either has a mask or a ZZ Top beard - unless he's eating a seagull.

... unless he's eating a big ice cream and has got it all over his face - in which case it's Tip Top beard.

 

There are five people wearing masks in the photo - just before he took the shot the photographer noticed that the four facing away from the camera were maskers. Give them the benefit of the doubt.

... and Cliff Road runs into Maskall Street - so no issues up there either.

Aren't you kind of trying to poke a hole in water while herding it uphill, or something like that?

Not a news post but from an online store. Don't know where else to put it. Chair that doubles as a monitor.

Not a headline, but I’m trying to get into the Stuff iOS app on an iPad. Everywhere I click on the picture to close the pop up Smiths City ad, including the x in the corner, takes me to the Smiths City Website. Probably life is trying to tell me something.

That's a real word in parts of the UK, as in "eah bah goom, 'ee wan't prepared!".

DailyWT F has a section "Error'd" where you can submit stuff like this.

RNZ article describing an electric moped as 50 cc. Those 'journalists' really need to get an edjication.
