Reading the headline, I thought this might have to go in the awesome stuff thread. But reading the story, nope. Firstly, it's wetherspoons pubs, secondly he didn't even have a beer in every one "Bingham often ticks off dozens of pubs every day and only has a pint in his favourite ones.", and finally "During a four-day trip to Scotland, he knocked off 46 boozers before celebrating with a pint of San Miguel and a bottle of Heineken."

Pathetic

@Machpants how the fuck is it a pub crawl unless you're having a drink in each one? Otherwise just imagine how many pubs you "visit" on the circle line.

Mos'def.
What a dick... so many details of that non-story make me sad...

• There are 875 Wetherspoon pubs
• his partner ..., 63, bought him a £3 Wetherspoon directory off eBay.
• "I call them boxes of fun..."
• only has a pint in his favourite ones.
• There are 57 Wetherspoon hotels...

Australia's Katie Perry lost a 15-year legal battle to Katy Perry. She's just been thrown a lifeline.

Katy Perry put it best when she sang, "Just because it's over doesn't mean it's really over."

Thought briefly about putting this in the meme thread. But with the apparent state of that (generic Logitech controlled) Titan sub, and some of the idiotic plans internet warriors are demanding, it belongs in this thread...

One social media comment- with genuine intent and concern for their survival - suggested linking a number of 'huge chains to a huge heavy magnet'.

I promptly pictured it very literally... making for some interesting fishing tales near the remnants of a 46,000 ton ocean liner.

@Donsteppa Oh geez imagine having to try and pry it off the ship deck to get it in the water

Bit like the armchair generals calling the UK military incompetent during the post 9/11 invasion for not using WW2- style flail tanks against IED's.....
