    My history teacher's brother just named his kid Lovely Rita. As in, first name of Lovely, middle name of Rita. Apparently all their kids have Beatles' names. Molly Jones I can accept, but you've just subjected this poor girl to a childhood of taunting and assumptions (unless, by the time she's in school, every kid will have equally dumb names).

    If they were naming their children today there would definitely be a Xaro Xhoan Daxos Geldof.

    'It is important that the initiative lies with the driving instructor, and focuses on offering a driving lesson, with the payment provided in sexual acts'
    Seems reasonable.

    This isn't "News" at all, but I stumbled upon this and laughed out loud when I saw there's a professor at London School of Marketing actually called "Jacques de Cock"

    So that care home on the front of all newspapers today, I used to work there until March. Popped down there in the afternoon yesterday, naturally everyone was shook up. Old chap was planning to end his life too. Very sad. Doubt this is the kind of publicity the place needs though.

    Stick batteries into this toy plane, and it does what a normal toy plane might do—rolls around and lights up. But then it also does something else—emits what appears to be an Islamic prayer.

    Hark at the fella involved.

    Twice in the last two days I've heard morons on the BBC call here a "bad case" or "severe" Motor Neurone Disease. It's all bad you stupid cunts, if you get it you're fucked.

    Horrific story. If these are all asylum seekers as the comment suggests near the end, it'll be pretty damaging to any acceptance of refugees in Europe.

    That feel when the evil racists who should be excluded from respectable circles and public discourse are vindicated. Europe is beyond fucked.

    What the absolute fuck? Someone said this in work today and I thought they were ripping the piss. I'm pretty sure there was no McDonalds in 1916 but I don't think they're ripping it out for the fortnight.
    What a waste of money.

    I'd probably be less disturbed if I saw a real child in someone's house as opposed to a doll.
