It could be you. But it isn’t


Metro: Granny told she has to trim her massive bush

It’s funny because “bush” is also a slang term for pubic hair, and despite the niche interest on certain corners of the internet, she’s not going to do anything to make her shrubbery more manageable for passers-by.

Just so we’re clear.

Coventry Telegraph: Something about road safety outside schools, because killing kids is a really bad thing

Those traffic bollards that looks like kids get more realistic by the day.

And speaking of which…

Oxford Mail: Volunteers act as human bollards to help enforce local low-traffic network

You guys need to get some of those bollards that look like kiddiewinks. They’re really realistic these days, you know.

Daily Record: Kiddiewinks given six month ban by those pencil-necked desk jockeys at the council because they have no access to indoor toilets, and the inevitable occurs

If only there were some way to give junior footballers access to indoor toilets so that they don’t have to urinate in the open.

Gazette Live: All nightclub punters to be ‘wanded’ by security staff in an attempt to stamp out knife crime

Barnsley Chronicle: Buses axed due to anti-social behaviour by The Kids

This man is (probably) not a school headmaster, but he has the air of a school headmaster who says that the tuck shop will remain closed until behaviour improves in the lower sixth.

Stoke Sentinel: Annoyed Adrian (for that is his name now) want council to take action over blocked gullies

Where would this page be without these alliterations from the Superbly Sarcastic Stoke Sentinel?

And while we’re here…

Stoke Sentinel: Desperate Dan (for that is now his name, forever), slams Just East after his McDonald’s meal arrives soaked in Coke
