Folding chairs weapon of freedom for the elderly boomer gronk. Due to years of oppression (despite a free education), causing osteoarthritis of the hips or knees, they have underwent free surgery for joint replacement, paid for by hard-working taxpayers. Now, as their Panadol Osteo supply runs short in Kamp Krusty, they are unable to stand and protest for more than a few minutes at a time. Thus, a folding chair allows them to voice their concerns against the whichever argument they believe in, whilst remaining comfortable and at a distance from the more angry gronks up front.
Acquiring the folding chair
Depending on their income, they will purchase a chair from their preferred bogan store of choice. BCF sell a wide range of cheaper and premium folding chairs, Bunnings have a smaller range but more budget options, and the Reject Shop (or similar stores) sell those which, due to their low cost and poor quality, can additionally be used as physical weapons, or simply left behind for somebody else to clean up after them.
Use of a folding chair
Early in the speech war against an empty building in the parliamentary triangle, the elderly gronks established themselves close to the stage (in case their government-funded hearing aids were to run out of batteries after listening to their videos earlier in the morning). They also established small campsites along the Federall Mall, out of harms way. As the crowds gradually streamed in after a big night of boozing at Kamp Krusty, they were forced out and, due to their infamously weak bladders and type 2 diabetes mellitus, were seen wandering back towards public toilets shortly after the rambling speeches started mentioning the First Nation's people.
Although the events of February 12 have not concluded, it is anticipated that there will be a significant number of disposable folding chairs left on the grounds, if they have not already been used as battering rams to break through the front doors of the Australian Parliament House.
