1. I can't get the
door open, there's a loinling sleeping in front of it.
2. There's that loinling who pushes her cat around in a stroller. At least she's fully dressed today.
3. Did you see that loinling walking backward up the street for no apparent reason? No, the one in a Storm
wig and his arms covered in foil.
4. Don't let that loinling open the Carl's Jr.
door for you, he'
ll get pissed off and demand you pay him.
