Dear Senator Hume,

Last week you wrote on Twitter:

“A politician, a Herald Sun journo and a Twitter keyboard warrior walk into a bar...”

I thought that was kind of cute and funny but then I wondered whether this was only the start of the joke and you were hoping someone would finish it.

I came up with the following:

A politician, a Herald Sun journo and a Twitter keyboard warrior walk into a bar.

The journalist says to the politician, “Give me a story and I'll buy you a beer.” The politician retorted, “I don't want a beer, I want publicity!”

“OK”, said the journalist. “It's a deal.”

The Keyboard Warrior confidently proclaimed, “Hey, give me a selfie with you two and I'll buy you both a beer!”

The politician said: “That’s a deal - as long as you drink all 3 beers by yourself at the other end of the bar.”
