You have inspired me! By night I shall don a cape and mask and prowl the highways and byways as the Avenging Barcode, dedicated to the removal of delinquent hitchhikers!
“Perforated Pricetags Barcode! Why didn’t you stop for that last hitchhiker?”
“Easy Lad,” chortled the masked driver of the fastest ex-Kebab van to tour the lonely highways of the land. “Once we get the three we’ve already got in the back of the van to the Barcave, we can return. He’ll still be there”.
“But how can you be so sure?” queried Swipe, the Avenging Barcode’s youthful companion, rescued from a Mom-and-Pop cornershop some years before, a tragic victim of a hostile take-over by a Supermarket giant.
“Nobody will stop for such a poorly-written sign, and nobody would want to go to Wolverhampton anyway. No, we’ll get our three new guests prepped for Tattooing, have a nice cup of tea, return for our friend back there and pick up another two before dawn. I want to present the Commissioner with a six-pack as a retirement gift”.
