Assuming they no longer want to be associated with female massage products.

Remote controlled autonomous excavators too. Wondered how long it would be till there won't be a driver in the seat anymore, other machines hiabs are pretty common place...

Ugh all rather lends itself to the easy dispensing of packaged/processed goods supplied by a selection of massive multinational companies. No more proper meat, veg etc too hard to handle, just boxes and bottles of everything instead.

The coffin broke away from the strap holding it before falling out of the helicopter

Love the ending:
"causing the coffin to land in Paradise, Co Clare".

So you can't buy your way into paradise, but you can drop in

Not in a good way.. horrendous..again.
Just seen news. I use train a bit to London indeed going again this week...any suggestions for a decent discreet way of neutralising these scum that can be kept in a rucksack ? A train carriage ain't a nice spot to meet a raghead nutjob poor folk.

No 1 do not keep in a rucksack.
No 2 be aware of your surroundings, if your wearing headphones change to a single ear piece.
If you've a rucksack you could line it with a bit of board or similar to act as a stab resistant board.
Don't think about a knife no 1 probably end up in the poop no 2 you need to train with a knife.
Expect to get cut, celox, tourniquet and an Israeli bandage in a small 1st aid kit,that is easily accessible and know how to use it.
If ever it happened the blade is the priority but use extreme violence it will happen in seconds.
We train knife survival it is luck of the draw anyone selling knife defence is full of s**t.
A decent torch with strobe and serrated toothed bezel is handy for seeing at night! Again know how many times to press the button!
These are possibly legal along with deodorant or similar

Pardon our interruption...

You need one that extends on a telescopic shaft…. More compact and yet longer when you need to use it ‘for looking at things’
