OK, I've ripped this off of the radio, but I was inspired to do so after reading the Daily Mail this afternoon, don't these plums have proof readers or anything? It's fucking humiliating.

I'll kick off with this one:

Well, we did save £4.75... 1,200 takeaway fans queue THREE hours for £1 fish and chips | Mail Online

Tight-wads queue for three hours to save £4.75 do they, Jessica Satherley?

Given the straitened times faced by families up and down the land it is perhaps not surprising that 1,200 people queued up - some for three hours - to get a fish and chip supper for £1.

Normally, Fosters Fish and Chips shop in Didsbury, Manchester, charges £4.75 for the meal but last night offered the special promotion to celebrate its first birthday.

That's actually a saving of £3.75, not £4.75. Get it fucking right, aargh, you're making my fucking piss boil!

And what about this crock of shit:

How I built my hobbit house for just £3,000 armed only with a chisel and hammer


Built with only three grand, a hammer and chisel. Second line:

Armed only with a chisel, chainsaw and hammer...

Whoa! Back the fuck up noddy! Where the fuck did the chainsaw come from??? And it just gets worse:

...Simon Dale moved his family to a hillside in Wales and started digging.

What the fuck??? What did he use to dig, the chainsaw or the fucking hammer??? But you've got to think, what else aren't they telling us?

"How I built my hobbit house for just £3,000 armed only with a chisel and hammer... and chainsaw, and shovel, and suitcase full of money, and 237 volunteers, and the entire team of DIY SOS..."

Post all your pendantry here.

Case in point is the outfit Helen Flanagan wore today for a jaunt around Cheshire.


The Coronation Street actress, 21, was either wearing a very short dress or attempting to use a T-shirt as a dress while out and about in Wilmslow, Lancashire.

Good God! How do these berks make a fucking living!?

For fucks sake, primary school children know that frogs are fucking amphibians, not reptiles! *belms*

In the wild the parents will often eat many of the young but animal loving Vanessa could not bear to see them suffer this gory fate. Instead she separated parents and young and has bred the tadpoles and then frogs herself using cat food pellets and fish flakes to feed them.

They defied the odds with more than 200 surviving but as they then grow to around 12cm it threatened a reptile invasion of her home on Cambria Street, which she shares with sons Casey, six, and Finley, four.

Man born without limbs takes on Africa's highest mountain

I was intrigued, how the hell does a man born with no limbs climb a chuffin' mountain?

Well for starters, he wasn't born without limbs:

West was born with a severe deformity of the spine that led to his legs being amputated.

And he still has arms! So he was a man born with all four limbs, who now only has two of them. Big fucking difference when it comes to climbing a fucking mountain.

Geoffrey Luxon, who played for Barrow Raiders, even challenged officers to more before throwing further punches.
