    I guess bad things really do happen when you're bored...
    [From the BBC] "Questions started to be raised around the time of the Japanese earthquake when several viewers emailed us to complain about our reports of radioactive zombies sighted near the nuclear reactor. We dismissed them as some sort of organised hoax.”

    “However, when there were similar numbers getting in touch to ask if Rebekah Brooks was really in trouble for raping a monkey, and why the BBC was claiming that, as a special summer treat, the Prime Minister had told the nation’s teenagers they didn’t have to pay for anything any more, we realised something was wrong.”

    (Not sure if it's a hoax or not but hey - it's Monday morning and it made me laugh!)

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.
