    Same with ITV in the morning,Mrs loves it and hits the remote soon as she wakes up.
    it will destroy brain cells very easily watching that mince every morning I keep telling her.

    needless to say, she just ignores me.

    Its what women like to watch because it calms their chaotic brain. Its their routine also, they are hooked on it, soaps, murder detective programs and daytime telly. Its not so much the destroying of brain cells I believe, its more a case that the woman likes to escape into a place where nothing is concrete kind of thing, everything is fluff, not particularly nonsensical but definitely unimportant.

    Ok, so you buy a jar of hot dogs with 8 dogs in them

    The smallest jar has 8

    Yet you go to the bakery section and the hot dog buns are sold in packs of six!

    What the * is that all about?

    I suppose it’s ok if you like barbecues and giving yourself food poisoning outside with wasps and flies and all that outside *, you can buy three jars of dogs and four packs of buns.

    seriously though, 8 dogs, 6 buns - * off

    How ANY movie company… producer….. director… or actor..

    … can possibly think that it was a good idea to remake ‘The Naked Gun’…

    like commissioning a new Sistine Chapel.

    The answer is 24….

    It’s like one of those primary school maths questions..

    Q - what’s the smallest number of hot dogs and rolls you need to buy to have the exact same number if each?

    Answer - You buy 3 jars of hot dogs and 4 packs of buns.

    Q - hot dogs are 30% tongue, 10% lips and 15% gonads .. how many hot dogs worth of gonads did you buy?…

    Totally agree.

    From hype alone it should make a fortune though.Didn’t care for the trailer - but I’d be happy if it was actually a funny film.

    Parents getting fined for taking kids on holiday during school hours.
    If teachers go on strike then they should be made to pay the parents recompense for kids missing school and so should airlines for the increased costs

    Always found this to be a completely dumb made up rule. What horrible parents for taking their kids away from forced learning to enjoy some memorable family
    Time. Some parents can’t afford to take holidays at certain times so fine them for having a life.

    This might happen going forward.

    Newcastle Uni Teaching staff went on strike
    and now students were awarded £1.7m a few days back.
