Interesting read, seems they are effectively protecting the domestic production of child sized sex dolls…don’t think that was entirely what they intended. More worrisome is the suggestion that’s only banned in Oz, the UK and the U.S.

"Unpleasantness" is the kind of word you don't see used in headlines often. I like it.

Along similar lines, I find it amusing when a 35-vehicle pile up which injures 20 results in someone being arrested 'on suspicion of careless driving'.

Surely there's a point where careless or dangerous becomes 'fucking ridiculous'.

Garden centre near Elgin sparks outrage with ‘cocaine curry’ post on social media

A garden centre near Elgin has backtracked after posting a photo of a meal on Facebook while describing it as “cocaine curry”.

Threaplands Garden Centre, in Lhanbryde, sparked outage with people slamming their “very poor choice of words” and accusing them of “making a joke out of drug addiction”.

“Today looks like a day for a hearty meal. Take a trip to Threaplands and try our ‘cocaine curry’ for yourself.”

The business also wrote the chef must have “sprinkled something addictive” on the plate, which many online have condemned as making fun of drug-use and similar dependencies.

Garden centre bosses later changed the post, saying it was “taken out of context” and they had intended to type “coconut curry”, blaming predictive text for the mishap.

Lisa Mary-Louise Hale wrote: “My family has been ripped apart and lives destroyed by drugs, but you know what, I still find this post lighthearted and funny"

Couldn't read the story because of the paywall but went on the Tully's FB page, the comments are brilliant. Well worth a read.

Starts out with the usual jokes then some of his family comment.
