Bullshitter of the Week? : Tue Jul 02, 2013 2:56 pm  

Tesco has withdrawn a colouring book from sale to 5-year-olds after it was pointed out that it had stuff like an image of actress Janet Leigh screaming as she is stabbed to death in Psycho's infamous shower scene, pre-coloured already with gory bloodstains. The publisher said the book had been placed in the wrong category, and is aimed at adults. Maybe I am missing something. I just wondered how many adults on here use colouring books?

Tempting, so very tempting ... but, no I shall not accuse.

Given the weather, it was predictable that banal utterings would soon emerge from our guardians and minders.

Health officials in England are advising people experiencing the very hot weather to stay cool, and drink lots of cold fluids

The NHS says the main risks posed by a heatwave are dehydration, overheating, heat exhaustion and heatstroke.

I shall sleep sounder in my bed, knowing that such brilliant minds are selflessly labouring away, behind the scenes, ensuring our survival.

Drinking lots of water is good – but do not forget the salt.
