Whilst at my local Coles I attended a checkout staffed by a Muslim lady. I could tell since she had the scarf on and there was a sign on the checkout saying you couldn't buy alcohol through there. Fair enough.

On my way through the purchase process I said 'Happy Eid', which I think is the day they celebrate the end of Ramadan with. I asked how the getting up at dawn to eat before fasting kicked in was and she corrected me that it's a pre dawn fast break (daylight I think is the no to food bit). It was kewl.

I was being all Seinfeld, congratulating myself on my multicultural moment ("I am truly great"), smiling to myself as I drove home. At that point I coughed up a big glob of mucus that landed on my pear shaped chest like a flu powered money shot.

Thanks Allah.
