Well I was watching "Ringu" and told the Police that I was worried a scary looking long haired woman was easing her way through my telly screen.
They basically CBA bothering .

Si you can try telling them but change Tramp to Person of No Fixed Abode./Street Dweller or you'll come across a tad judgey .

That happened to me too. The police told me that the girl was vulnerable and they would not be doing anything.

I actually grabbed her head and tried to push her back into the TV. So she called the cops.
My court hearing is next week.

She couldn't call the police in my house as her bloodied little stubs of her fingernails kept slipping on the iPhone screen ...........

Eh?
The top ones are strawberry sherberts and the bottom ones are a box of rhubarb and custards.

They're all sugar-free.

Eating too many causes rampant diarrhoea

Or work down a mine.
Anything to earn enough so that you can afford to send your DC to private school and buy a bigger house.

TheBroonOneAndTheWhiteOne · 15/11/2025 22:07

I have five sons and eighteen grandchildren.

My husband has recently had a stroke, so I spend all day and night looking after him.

AIBU to refuse to look after all my grandchildren as well? My five DILs are ganging up on me and complaining that I ought to look after all their children.

I also run an animal rescue centre so it's not like I have any spare time.

AIBU? It's not like my DILs have jobs anyway. None of them actually work. They're just lazy cunts who bugger about having spa days, going to nail bars, watching telly, updating their fucking mindless Instagram pages and buying expensive clothes all day long.

They've told my sons that none of them will come for Christmas this year unless I do what they say. Bitches.

Work down a mine... are you kidding?
You need a post grad degree and 10 years of experience to do that now. All for NMW. Oh, and they wont take on anyone older than 16.

Good job I'm 69 then, and can live the Life of Riley on my state pension and pension credit. Three cheers for the welfare state.

You run an animal rescue. Take on the grandkids and just chuck them in with the animals. Kids and animals are the same.

Ha!
I can feed them on Felix cat pouches.
Yes, the children too.
Much cheaper than McDonald's.

Oh, thank heavens for that.

I don't think you should eat the sweets though, bound to be full of E numbers ...

You could run a petting zoo and charge your grandkid's school mates to come and see them.
Sounds like a win win situation for you.

I always got The Shamen and The Prodigy mixed up ..........IKR , they look completely different as groups and you couldn't mix up the lead singers .

I know have that song in my head .......

Not the case for me , in college we ate a whole box of sugar free mints to test the "Warning - excessive consumption has laxative effect" but nope .
NaDa
Nil
Just a clever marketing ploy to make gullible students eat the mints .
