Does that make it ABSURD? Or even worthy of comment?

Point taken

I think some of us (me included) give more attention to this churnalised crap than the sub-editors do.

Meh, it's just an excuse to publish a pic of a female in their grundywear - an article about taxation is as good as any at the ShiteRag.

I can see Malcolm's point in relation to picking up the Mail on things like the use of the term "adorable" or similar. I don't however in relation to pictures like that one; whether you call it "absurd", "a bit silly", or whatever, it was a stupid picture to choose in relation to the story it was supposed to be illustrating, and I really can't see what the objection is if people choose to have a quick chortle at its inappropriateness.

The Munich nymphomaniac claims a second victim: Man found weeping in street after being lured back to sex-crazed woman's flat

— Woman taken to psychiatric hospital for evaluation
— First victim was rescued after desperate call for help

Yet another Crazed Woman story in the Mail, and another instance of sexual assault being treated as a joke. I didn't get past the mods with:

A woman who likes having sex? How funny. Sexual assault? Hilarious. Someone needs psychiatric care? Titter, titter. What a depressing newspaper this is.

Others were more successful:

How can a woman force a man to have sex - surely he has to want to or it won't work? Did she hold a gun to his head? I don't get it.

It seems that having a hard-on equals consent in smark's world.

It's quite funny that because it's a woman it's all a bit of lighthearted fun but if this was the other way around there would be calls for the vicious beast to be locked up for ever

Night-time necklace that can stop the pain of heartburn

Quote:

A necklace worn in bed at night could help banish the pain and discomfort of heartburn.

The device works by applying gentle pressure to the neck to stop burning acid leaking back up from the stomach into the throat.
