Two girls, Yuna and Ash, stand by a dirty urinal trough as Yuna urinates into it. Ash is wearing a wife-beater singlet and leaning with one hand against the wall, the other holding a schooner of beer. She is saying, "Mate, I'm two drinks in, I've got a bit of a buzz going on, and I just reckon we should get a bag." Yuna is wearing thongs, a shirt that says "GOON HOON" on it, and a yellow miniskirt, and is looking at Ash with an expression of mild interest in this plan. The image is drawn in magenta, yellow, and chartreuse ink, with a magenta wash for the girl's skintone.
A black and white ink drawing of a scene in front of a bar, with three girls doing a cheers with their beers. Two of the girls have their arms around each other, and the third has a mullet and acne and is smoking a cigarette despite the fact they're indoors. Behind them the viewer can see the bar and its beer taps, with a mirror behind that reflects the girls and the rest of the room.
Two girls, Nora and Stella, sit at a table together by the wall of the pub, drinking beers. Stella is grabbing Nora by the shoulder and saying with a frown, "It's your shout, don't dog me now mate." Stella is topless and wears a backwards cap, with blemishes on her back and chin, and visible leg hair. Nora is wearing a tennis skirt and a singlet top with the Aboriginal flag on it, and has an expression of discomfort.
At a 7/11 petrol station, two girls, Siobhan and Babe, stand around a 1996 Holden commodore sedan with the number plate "RID350". Babe is leaning on the hood of the car and flirting, "A v8 you say? Pop the hood." Behind them we can see a street of suburbia with houses, and a gum tree. The entire image is drawn in magenta, yellow, and chartreuse ink.
A black and white ink drawing of Siobhan and Lile from behind, the view of a pokies screen visible over their shoulders. Siobhan has her arm around Lile, and Lile's fist is held triumphantly in the air as they both yell, "We're up! We're up!"
Two girls in a car, one is leaning out the window towards the viewer and saying "Hop in the back, babe, we're going' for a ride." She is holding a long neck beer and has a souther cross star tattoo, a nipple piercing, little moustache whiskers and short blonde hair. The girl in the driver's seat is wearing a midriff top that reads "Filth" and has a lip ring. It is night time and through the back window of the car the viewer can see they are driving through the city of Sydney.
A black and white ink drawing of a woman, Ella, with very sleek black hair in a high ponytail looking at herself in the mirror of the pub bathrooms. She has stubble and chest hairs that peek out the top of her corset, and she wears an expression of confidence. All around the mirror is graffiti referencing defecation, STDs, love, heartbreak, and drawings of genitals.
A coloured ink drawing of three women, Anong, Babe, and Ash, sitting crying together at a pub table and comforting each other as they do so. Many empty schooner glasses sit between them on the table, and a Keno poster on the wall behind them reads, "Keno: Lose money, keep it up!". A caption on the image reads, "Three cheers for tears and beers!".
Outside a pub venue by the hedges a group of girls are breaking up a fight. A tall girl with a double mohawk (Yuna) is pointing at the other instigator, Lile, and yelling "Keep ya dog on a leash!" to Babe, who is holding Lile up so she doesn't fall.
A black and white ink drawing of three girls affectionately greeting each other in a pub. Priya, who is sitting in a wheelchair, has her friend Louise in a friendly headlock, and is saying something to her. Louise is laughing, bent over double to be in Priya's arms, and has her hand resting against Priya's forearm. Ash, whose head is cropped out of the image due to her height, has her hand holding a schooner of beer resting on Priya's bicep.
A coloured ink drawn image from the point of view of one of the girls who has fallen down, with Siobhan leaning down over them with an expression of worry as she says, "Dude, I think you're concussed." Street lamps, the southern cross, and the branch of a gum tree are seen in the sky behind her, and all the lines in the drawing are wobbly as if through unsteady vision. The image is drawn in magenta, yellow, and chartreuse inks.
A black and white ink drawing of Ash and Nora hooning through the streets of suburbia at night in a Holden Commodore. Nora is leaning out the window with the wind in her hair and a bottle raised in joyful excitement, while Ash drives. A neighbourhood cat has been caught under their wheel, dying in a spray of gore.
A coloured ink drawing of Siobhan crouched beside the filthy pub toilet, looking ill and dazed after having vomited onto her own lap. Spew covers her knees and pools on the floor between her legs, and empty schooner glass sitting beside her. The drawing uses magenta, yellow and chartreuse inks.
A coloured ink drawing of two girls, Anong and Lile, holding up their topless and unconscious friend Babe as they wait for the nightrider bus home. Babe has lost a shoe, and Anong looks annoyed as she makes direct eye-contact with the viewer. Lile, holding a stubby and looking sulky, is saying, "Look cunt, all I'm sayin' is that she's lowering our chances of getting wristies on the nightrider." Behind them is the recognisable Sydney city skyline, with the southern cross and moon shining bright.
A magenta, yellow, and chartreuse coloured ink drawing of the scene of a car crash, a car with the number plate "B17CH" in a crumpled heap by the side of the road at an intersection. Police tape cordons off the area, and a body bag lies on the asphalt beside the car.
A Thai punk girl (Anong) sits on a brightly patterned Sydney train seat holding her drunken and passed out friend (Babe) on her lap. They are in the positions of The Pieta, and Babe has vomited down her own shirt.
