The Sunday Herald reimagine Trump's inauguration as an episode of The Twilight Zone in their TV listings. Goes viral.

Donald Trump mistakenly @s someone he thought was his daughter on Twitter.

It's someone called Ivanka Majic, not Ivanka Trump.

Mildly amusing.

 

[axletramp]

Trump really is an accident waiting to happen. Brexit will pale into insignificant when his global buffoonery kicks off.

Starting with twitter, of course.

Should've owed compensation to the poor postbox.

Maybe his wife is an obese Man U fan.

Speaks volumes about the women of Manchester...

Shouldn't have gone out wearing that sexy little red number. Post box was asking for it if you want my opinion.

"Clearly there are issues that need to be addressed."

NO ****!!!!

"Clearly there are issues that need to be addressed."

NO ****!!!!

Apparently the post box is now pregnant but the Post Office can't give a specific delivery date.

Surely they could find a supplier called "Trump's Dumps".

Have you ever wondered what happens to Skittles that don't pass QC, and are deemed unfit for packaging? I sure have! Well now we know! They get fed to cattle, and that's kind of weird.

The blind thief I mentioned in this thread some time ago has been sentenced... unsurprisingly it turns out he's on drugs. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-northamptonshire-38682424.

Court orders a man's eviction. From his hospital bed.

...

How the holy heck did he bear the taste of hospital food for two whole freaking years?! Wowsers. Not sure whether to respect the man or to mock him now....

 

[Grayfox]

Court orders a man's eviction. From his hospital bed.

Why didnt they just escort him out with security after he got out of bed so they could change the sheets.

 

[BobK]

Maybe.... they didn't change the sheets... for two years?!?

 

[TenEightyOne]

Maybe.... they didn't change the sheets... for two years?!?

Unlikely, this is the NHS which has a strict sheet-changing target of no more than 8 months.

I love the tweet shown in that article that complains about the skywriters missing "is a ****" from the sentence

While funny, it also undermined the goal of the protestors.

The event’s organisers said the protests were not just about Trump, but were to be viewed as anti-hatred, anti-bigotry and anti-misogyny, and intended to empower marginalised groups.

I've always wondered if people that make tweets like that realize that they are only making things worse?

Whale found beached in Oklahoma park, several meters from a river. I want to believe this is a hoax. How/why does a whale swim to Muskogee? How does a whale get up out of a river? Does this one have legs?

Biologists are already at work and are trying to determine the origin of the gigantic cetacean.

That's pretty awesome. It almost has to be some sort of prank you would think. Maybe he flopped himself up into the bank?
