Not only has the world gone pc mad but it has also gone health and safety mad.

Too much coffee makes you produce ginger afro haired kids, as the photo clearly shows.

The Internet Explorer

I guess you could say, a Council banned people from drinking coffee at coffee mornings.

Now, if these women had balls (excuse the expression) they'd jsut show up, drink coffee, let their kids play and be done with it.

THIS is what happens when people do not make a ****ing stand.

Ah. My apologies, so.

It seems ridiculous but I bet there's more to it and it's due to legal/insurance ramifications, but shur the Mail gets to caricature itself with a "health and safety gone mad" quote.

Disappointment reigns. I'd prayed that one of the unanticipated benefits of Sherlock's dumb SI would be stopping this stupid practice of starting threads with links to articles in the unHoly Grail, publication of the Devil and media organ of choice of the under-employed mindless masses. But no, this particular cloud was just a harbinger of more bad weather, worse luck.

I don't get this?
People always moan about it.

Just click the link.

If you're a mobile user, click it too.
Most sites have a mobile version, so don't worry too much about bandwidth, and disable images if need be.

Posting articles and quoting is fine.
But fvck, why the hell should we spoon feed people.
Are we getting that lazy?

heh. I actually have the dailymail blocked on my pc goes to this instead: http://www.tomroyal.com/teaandkittens/blocked.php?chrome. Perfectly happy to keep it blocked

So I had to google the article from elsewhere.

And as usual with the *PC out of control* reaction its full of sh*t

To minimise any risk of scalding a child we have introduced a hot drinks policy at all of the county’s children’s centres.
'Hot drinks can now only be served at children and baby sessions if the layout of the centre provides a separate area to consume hot drinks away from children playing.'

Really not seeing a ban here, perhaps you could argue its common sense and need not be stated, but I'd be a rich man if I was given a euro each time someone didnt use common sense.

Mother's are pefectly allowed to drink coffee, it doesn't state separate room or building, just area. It means not to be drinking coffee while playing with your kid. Which honestly considering children tend to kick, throw and scream a lot it's common sense.

Once again tabloids creating stories where this is none.

Jesus Wept

General health and safety is not related to political correctness.

I'd usually post a hilarious video of Steward Lee now.

WTF were her parents thinking, naming their child after a fungal infection??

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

It's polite to quote the article for people on mobiles.

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

it's polite to click the damn link and stop giving out about people not quoting articles

I don't see how it is polite, I consider it the opposite in fact.

9/10 I use boards on my mobile and having to scroll through a long article is a pain in the ass, only providing a link means I can skip what I do not wish to read and click on the things that I want to read.

Much easier on the mobile to just click the link in my opinion.
