I'm just totally baffled they would write that. It just seems like a parody. Just not a very good one.

Ugh, the DM's so gooseberry fool. So gooseberry fool. On the odd occasion I look at the website, it's full of 'celeb' pictures, articles essentially stolen from Reddit, articles revolving around some pleb on Twitter being outrages about something, horrendous 'puzzles' that are just terrible, and hyperbolic, non-sensical, utter, utter drivel. How it's so popular is beyond me.

I remember it having pretty good history articles sometimes.

I may be mistaking this for the Daily Express. They kinda just blur into the same thing in my mind.

I think you are thinking of the Express - they love a good historical article about a princess that died 20 years ago.

My Uncle is the same. Buys the Telegraph all week and then swaps to the Daily Mail because of the TV Guide and Racing Post on a Saturday.

My Mum goes with The Sun on a Saturday.

Those TV Guides are still a big draw amongst people of a certain age, clearly. Helps that they actually are cheaper and better than the paid ones.

I'm quite happy with the Sky HD EPG, personally.

So Theresa May has said that #legsit is just a harmless bit of fun. That's it. Sexism has been normalized by our Prime Minister. What a stupid strawberry floating arsehole.

On a serious note, she is playing it down because it is the Daily Mail and she will be counting on their support.

If the Guardian or Mirror had run the exact same "story" then I would imagine she would be far more annoyed and wouldn't see it as fun.

I am sure she has a good genuine chuckle when she thinks of poor people.

I thought the headline was bad, but the article text is just as strawberry floating atrocious. This must be an early April fools joke from the Mail. :fp:
