Tragic Washing Machine ‘Starved To Death’

A washing machine from Milton Keynes has starved to death after its owner used sock clips to prevent it from eating single socks.

The Hotpoint’s owner claims she had no idea that washing machines needed to consume single socks, and only clipped the socks together ‘to stop them from disappearing’.

The manufactures have warned the public about the dangers of clipping socks together, but it is not thought that sock clips will be banned altogether.

“We do not advocate the use of sock clips 100% of the time, as this prevents washing machines from eating one of your brightly coloured socks, leaving you with a single, useless sock that will live in your sock drawer for the rest of eternity. There have been several cases where washing machines have tragically starved to death after being denied the opportunity to eat socks. It is important to remember that socks are a natural part of a washing machine’s diet, and that sock clips can be dangerous when used in every wash,”

‘Wasps Can Still F*** Off’ Claim Animal Lovers

Britain is famously a nation of animal lovers, and numbers of vegetarians, vegans and anti cruelty supporters are growing. But wasps can still f*** right off, according to many animal loving Brits.

Margaret Otter, who runs a sanctuary for abandoned pets, including turtles, tarantulas and lizards said;

“I’ve got a special spray that I use to kill them, and then I watch them die, and then I chop off their head with a plastic picnic knife, pop it on a cocktail stick and stand it by the gate as a warning to other wasps,”

A hunt saboteur from Hampshire said;

“I love all animals apart from wasps. If one flew near me while I was reading, I would definitely twat it with the book, even if it meant getting a bit of wasp juice on the book,”

Martin Carrot, a vegan since the 1960’s said:

“Hey come on. It’s wasps we’re talking about here, not butterflies or bees. It’s like they deliberately pick on you when you’re innocently going about your business. I wouldn’t kill or eat one, but I’ve got absolutely no sympathy for them,”

Reasons for disliking wasps varied, and included “hanging around and being annoying when you’re trying to make jam” and “building nests in the eaves of your house”. But “stinging people for no good reason,” and “well, they’re just bastards aren’t they?” were two of the most popular reasons for disliking wasps.

“I’m against animal testing,”

Said an animal rights protester in Manchester.

“But if someone poured shampoo into a wasp’s eye and made it smoke tobacco, I probably wouldn’t give a shit,”

Sir Trevor McDonald To Join Mafia

Former newsreader Sir Trevor McDonald has revealed that “bitches and money” are behind his decision to become part of an organised crime cartel.

“It was all rather eye-opening”

Said the esteemed journalist, speaking about the ITV documentary “The Mafia With Trevor McDonald”

“These people are much cooler than my other friends, and up to their necks in fast cars and exotic young fanny. I’d never thought of being a career criminal before, but there’s something about “The Mafia With Trevor McDonald” that just has a certain ring to it,”

It’s a surprising move for a respectable journalist, whose only previous antisocial behaviour was accidently saying the C-word on the telly by accident, when he muddled up the words “Kent countryside” on News at Ten. But the mafia are keen to take him into their fold.

“I shall have to think of a nickname now, like Badass McD or Trevor Trouble-Trousers. And what are you looking at, tough guy? You think you can handle the big T.M? Get out of here kid,”
