to wonder how outraged you are at a supermarket not selling meat pies before 9am? Do they have an agenda?

Because I’ve just seen a couple in The Metro accuse Morrison’s of having some kind of pie based agenda because they wouldn’t sell them meat pies before 9am

Whatififall Grin at 'maybe the meat pies will be used to bomb Syria'.

'Victory' for the common man.

Why should Britain be feared by Russia when people take such a stand and win Hmm

Maybe they've not cooked them yet, maybe they've not able to catch the pixies to put in them till sunrise, maybe the incantations with the pies in the centre of the pentangle don't work till 8:55am.

The Metro may as well have put a headline shouting "HA HA LOOK HOW BARKING MAD THIS STUPID COUPLE ARE!"

This is a cert for "Angry People In Local Newspapers".

Victory for pie couple

It's like something out of Adrian Mole.

I'm howling at the cross faces whilst holding the pies

CircleSquareCircleSquare · 16/04/2018 19:17

I really want to know what the agenda is.
I won’t sleep tonight thinking about it.

Is this why Finland doesn’t exist? Is the Queen (who is obviously a lizard) up to something? What’s Trump been up to on this front? We the people demand to know!

Huh!? Omg I have been so conditioned to media lifting stories that I automatically assumed this was a story taken from a thread I hadn't read on AIBU! (Only ever saw the headline)!

Tony, who has fish and chips three days a week and says he rarely touches pastry, believes Morrisons have a hidden agenda.

My mate who’s from Teeside is going to use this quote as his profile pic, I think. We were pissing ourselves over this today, front page, first article to come up on the local rag. Mental!

CircleSquareCircleSquare · 16/04/2018 20:49

Shizzle that would be an amazing profile pic.

I think I'll media lift this myself:

Who ate all the pies? Clearly not Tony and his partner who were misuse of the word mortified to be BANNED from buying the tasty hot treats by their local Morrison's.

Spokesman Mr A Clusterfuck explained 'Well, the crow wasn't flying widdershins on the third Tuesday after epiphany when the wind blew up the ginnel. How does Tony expect us to be pastry prepared by 9am? Paul Hollywood would be lucky to hand raise his rough puff at that time in the mornings.'

The guy who wrote this article should get headhunter by Take A Break!

LeighaJ · 16/04/2018 22:16

Maybe it's the meat pies that actually have the agenda and Morrison's are just their pawns in whatever sick game they're playing at. Shock

Paintingtheroseswhite · 17/04/2018 00:05

I started reading the story and my inner monologue was saying "please don't let this be Teesside....please don't let this be Teesside" oh dear

This has to be the truth behind it!
The pie eating public deserve to know the truth!
