    Is this what the Daily Mail have stooped to now?

    Trawling the internet for pictures they hope will get their readers all riled up, despite many of them being obviously photoshopped.

    Some of those are really shocking, and some are just Daily Mail rabble rousing.

    I doubt the baby looking at Playboy even knew what he/she was looking at. The guy with the beer probably wasn't actually giving it to the child, and in the picture at the train station, I'm pretty sure the train is moving away from the mother and child.

    Can we request a Dail Mail forum please and stop cluttering AH with tripe.
    I vote that we have a sub forum in creative writing for these threads.

    The only photo I found in any way upsetting was the baby in the microwave. That was one unhappy looking baby.

    WOW, someone found a college humor post from the 90's


    Old pictures are old.

    "This is where babies come from... This shocked infant looks horrified to learn the truth about the stork and the cabbage patch"

    Seriously? The baby hasnt a clue what it's looking at. One would hope the caption writers tongue was planted firmly in their cheek.

    "Lick it clean: A child eats cake mix off a whisk - while it still appears to be plugged in"

    It still appears to have a cable attached but it coudl be plugged in or it could be dangling on to the ground.

    I always thought the children's beauty pageant parent are the worse parents.

    What about the kid with the snake, the electric fence and the guns.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,800 ✭✭✭Senna


    Next the Daily Mail will have a shocking story about animal abuse, pictures of dogs with sunglasses on, a bird stuck in some girls cleavage, cats in boxes...:rolleyes:

    The Daily Mail never ceases to amaze me...

    If they are real then the parents are thick fuckers. Leaving a small child with an animal that can quickly kill it is negligent. I believe a number of children have been strangled by pet snakes.
    and the guns.

    I think kids are allowed to join gun clubs in some countries so it wouldn't be all that unusual.

    Might not be unusual in some countries but its ****in crazy.

    The sandwich baby abd the microwave baby are the only ones I have a huge problem with.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,069 ✭✭✭✭My name is URL


    I'm not gonna lie.. I lol'd at the Martial Artist one


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,072 ✭✭✭sunnysoutheast


    ....and in the picture at the train station, I'm pretty sure the train is moving away from the mother and child.

    Nope the running lights are white, not red, and UK trains travel on the left. The crossing lights will also likely be triggered from the platform departure signals.

    Some are obviously just messing, but I wouldn't have a child anywhere near that snake!

    The martial arts one made me laugh though to be honest :-)

    What about the kid with this snake. :eek:

    (The snake more than likely had its fangs and venom removed and not being a constrictor would have been harmless to the child)

    There was nothing wrong with that one, it was just a funny pose. It says "remarkably the kid appears to be smiling", kids love being hung upside down!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,001 ✭✭✭recylingbin


    There really should be an "I want to discuss my outrage at a daily mail story" forum.


    " = '

    +1 One of the few things I remember from such a young age was being spun around at high speed. I loved it, and the child in the photo looks like they're having fun too.
    The others vary, the microwave baby looks seriously distressed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,730 ✭✭✭✭entropi


    Even though I was seeing a link to The Daily Fail, I clicked on it. Never again, I want my 60 seconds back :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,523 ✭✭✭✭Cookie_Monster


    Still better than all those Africans who have 17 kids cos they know they'll manage to kill more than half them before they grow up...
    I'm very disappointed at the lack of truly crazy comments :(
    fit the bill?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24 supp


    The last pic is the best.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 974 ✭✭✭BarackPyjama


    I, for one, am utterly outraged...

    I woke up at 4.30 and can't get back to sleep.

    The words "appears to be" is mentioned alot in those captions


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,778 ✭✭✭up for anything


    It's a load of crap. Most parents have equally "terrifying" photos of their offspring. Most are set up.


  • Registered Users Posts: 562 ✭✭✭haminka


    Ah, Daily Mirror, the most favourite lynch mob mentality tabloid ....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,535 ✭✭✭Radharc na Sleibhte


    Who the fuk reads or buys the daily mail?
    Seriously, who?

    It must be the greatest pile of high filuting english shiite ever.

    teaching teh kid about security and proper gun control at a young age is a good thing is it not?

    Yeah, it really lowers the tone of the normally chic and classy AH :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,027 ✭✭✭St.Spodo


    Are we supposed to be outraged or what? I assume it's outrage they're looking for. Only a tool would get riled up by photo shopped novelty pics from about ten years ago.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,663 ✭✭✭Immaculate Pasta


    I'm getting annoyed how many hits I've given to the Daily Racist thanks to links on After Hours :mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,397 ✭✭✭Paparazzo


    OP, where's the terrifying pictures you promised? The only thing "terrifying" is that people actually pay money to read that paper.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,802 ✭✭✭bluefinger


    kill the parents, castration and hangings too good for them.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,439 ✭✭✭SunnyDub1


    Would you treat your child to what is depicted in some of these images?

    Some are obviously set up for a joke, others are just plain sick and I hope child welfare authorities take note and follow up action.

    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2124473/Worlds-worst-parents-pictures.html


    Have to agree with you - there is a boarder line between a joke and just being plain nasty and sick ..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,659 ✭✭✭CrazyRabbit


    Ah, I love The Onion Newspaper!
