I watched border security for the first time in yonks. I don't know what it is about "woman tries to bring in 9kg of undeclared rotting food" of "man tries to bring in 17 dead lobsters" that's so fucking funny but this and highway patrol are like peak television. Who needs strange things or blue is the new beige, people breaking the law and getting in deep shit is all you need

Haven't watched border security many times but every time I have I have been astonished by the number of people who try to bring pork into the country. Like wtf it's pork, we've got plenty here! It's not like it's a rare commodity or anything.
