Dirty Pies: Twitting In NZ

From the land where, as we understand it, civilization is advanced beyond our comprehension, & people should be upside down, yet insist they're right-side up, Twitter Tourism, via the world's foremost leftish rag.
According to the Lonely Planet website, out of 180 things to do in Auckland, having a White Lady hamburger from a long, white single-decker bus down a half-dodgy street near a car park has been voted the number one thing to do. And not just that – out of 870 recommended things to do in the entire country of New Zealand – a country of indescribable beauty and incredible history, a country of rugby, and wine, and vista upon vista upon heart-squeezing vista – this street/bus/burger experience comes in at number …

"Did you know this is the number one recommended thing to do in the whole of New Zealand?" I ask the drunk Israeli. He gives me a look that implies I've just asked to lick his chips, then his burger is ready, and he takes it and leaves.
Unexpected bonus: Best poetry we've read (by a conservative estimate) this yr.

Then his burger is ready,
and he takes it
and leaves.
