^this, can do a week of full lunches for me and the television and get change from a tenner, and they’re better than this shit

Made a thread about the standard of the BBC news website a few months back, it seems to be in complete freefall these days.

‘pioneering method’

Don’t get this. Either it’s beyond fucking idiotic, or it’s satire…but if it’s the latter then…well, what is it going for exactly? and why is it on the BBC news website?

The home page of the BBC website is just clickbait.

Shitty clickbait about unimportant shitty stuff like some witless oik revolutionising sandwich eating by making his own or Beyoncé eating a cookie shaped like an angel (or was it more fairy shaped?!).

Shit like this is the reason old people vote brexit and Tory and place ever increasing demands on public services. This is why they hate us.

You can customise it to get rid of the clickbaity garbage.

It’s proper “more from the web” bullshit. And I should really get round to customising my homepage.

I think I’m going to have to register to use iPlayer and stuff soon, so hopefully can configure it all then.

Useful to know, though, thanks!

Yeah, iPlayer is going to require it very soon, so might as well take advantage of being forced into signing up.

this is what happens when you’re too scared of the government, inane guff

Really depressing video.

yeah, saw this the other day…the BBC, eh? What happened?

Now, let me see. “Beau Brummel in purple pants probe.” “King talks to tree. Phew what a loony!” God, the Times has really gone downhill recently hasn’t it!

I think of this bit of Blackadder a lot when I look at all the news sources we used to consider trustworthy.

Also one of the other videos in the “series” is called “Did baked potatoes ruin the pound £1 cafe?” or Which I did a genuine lol at

Instead of buying pre-packaged sandwiches at a supermarket, or making them at home - he made them at work with weekly ingredients.

how’s that different to making them at home?
