Byford residents given a crash course in modern advances to help them adjust to joining civilisation in October 

The Western Australian Government has been hard at work getting Byford residents up to speed with the advances of the modern age. 

The move comes after it was announced Byford will be joining Perth’s civilisation in October. A spokesperson for the WA Government told The Times,

“We are starting slow, with concepts like modern irrigation, paved surfaces and fax machines. By next week we hope to have moved onto fancier things like Gameboy Colour”

Asked why they couldn’t be shown the Nintendo Switch instead, the spokesperson told us,

“We can’t risk frying their brains too early, you have to understand this is a relatively untouched population, how do you think they’re going to react to a fridge that can order its own groceries?”

Byford residents have been in a state of awe at the information but most are just looking forward to seeing what other potholes are out there. 

We spoke to a Byfordian who told The Times,

“I reckon ours are the biggest ay but you never know, so gonna take the boy out when the line opens and check out what’s eroding in Armadale and that”

That sounds wonderful. 

Documenting the Human Zoo is thirsty work, so if you enjoyed what you read how about buying Belle a beer, ay?
