- bossm4n, on 05/19/2008, -1/+140In related news, Tesco is having a clearance sale on certain vegetables, fruits and meats.
- Pittance, on 05/19/2008, -1/+127"It is alleged that a man was spraying a foul-smelling substance, thought to be urine, on the foodstuffs, including the salad bar, fruits and meat.
"The device he was using is described as a kind of tube."
...... - blackjack75, on 05/19/2008, -4/+125I never washed a can before drinking from it. And I never got sick from it in the last 30 years.
- dojonz, on 05/19/2008, -1/+112Dammnit - R Kelly, what is wrong with you!?
- inactive, on 05/19/2008, -17/+105People should be washing their produce thoroughly. You never know what kind of ***** is on that. Wash all can lids and don't drink pop from the can unless you clean it first.
- staffell, on 05/19/2008, -2/+80by not doing what you suggested, i am happily building up my immunities the natural way
- gl77, on 05/19/2008, -0/+67had an idea once of making a cellophane shrink wrap cover that goes over the top of the soda can. its perforated in one spot so you can take it off with ease when you are ready to drink it. basically the idea was to keep the dirt and dust and other ***** off of the top of the can and from around the little ridge. but then i realized that first of all, dirt and dust never killed anyone, secondly, it would not be worth more plastic pollution in the world just for some paranoid germaphobe to feel safe and contented for a couple of seconds. thirdly, why does the Firefox spell check try to correct germaphobe and try to replace it with Hermaphrodite? if i spell it germophobe, it tries to replace it with xenophobes. i understand its probably not a real word, but enough people know what it means.
- BradBrown, on 05/19/2008, -2/+60"The device he was using is described as a kind of tube." - In my country, we call that a "penis."
- oxdeltaxo, on 05/19/2008, -1/+57Agreed, being that paranoid would make me sick in the first place.
- thebloodvayne, on 05/19/2008, -0/+45"Vegetables sprayed with urine are probably best left alone."
No *****. - bulletproofbra, on 05/19/2008, -2/+47Excellent tangent score! +10!
- StueyPidass, on 05/19/2008, -0/+42Makes you mentally stronger
- inactive, on 05/19/2008, -1/+42He was pissed.
- galvo, on 05/19/2008, -0/+40He was just trying to attract the other female shoppers. Give him a break.
- citydragon, on 05/19/2008, -3/+43"He fled the store and went to Tesco four miles away in Quedgeley, where he again terrified customers and staff by spraying the fluid on produce."
I'd like to hope it would take more to terrify me than a man pissing on a cucumber. - poidh, on 05/19/2008, -3/+38Yay, let's wait for you Americans to wake up then we can be treated to another bajillion articles about how Hillary eats babies and how Hussein is the best one to be elected because it will annoy the evil neocons the most.
- dleesgeetar, on 05/19/2008, -1/+36i was totally drinking from a pepsi when i read this )=
- yetAnotherCroc, on 05/19/2008, -0/+34Builds up you strength and skill in using only one arm to perform tasks.
- juliustan, on 05/19/2008, -1/+34of course, because you would get a mechanical arm that could bitch slap the shark with 5tons of forceful revenge.
- MakiMaki, on 05/19/2008, -2/+34Irrational behavior. I wonder why he was motivated to something as meaningless as this.
- Krumm, on 05/19/2008, -1/+29What about having an arm ripped off by a shark?
- blackinthmiddle, on 05/19/2008, -0/+27"Officers say they have no clues about the motive."
What ever happened to being just plain old crazy? - zspitfire04, on 05/19/2008, -2/+29psh... Piss on these prices!
- peestandingup, on 05/19/2008, -0/+27No, not *****. Piss.
- mirot, on 05/19/2008, -0/+25hey.. what doesn't kill you makes you stronger
- Andrwmorph, on 05/19/2008, -0/+25I dare say that a peasant spraying urine on my produce would fog up my monocle quite severely!
- zadadka, on 05/19/2008, -2/+22"...wait for you Americans to wake up..."
Of course, we've already been waiting for that for some considerable time. ;) - Delphium226, on 05/19/2008, -3/+23Obviously another pissed off customer.
- MasterThief117, on 05/19/2008, -2/+22He was using the Internet to do this?
- inactive, on 05/19/2008, -0/+19In either case, has it really mattered?
- inactive, on 05/19/2008, -1/+19What a dick!
- kidtwist, on 05/19/2008, -0/+17He should be required to eat it.
- Pittance, on 05/19/2008, -0/+17produce yes, because of herbicides and fertilizers. cans? no, thats just being paranoid.
- inactive, on 05/19/2008, -0/+15Where I live there was a supermarket where a guy was sprinkling feces on the baked goods. The cops had to keep a crowd of people there from killing him when he got arrested. Lucky for me I didn't shop at that supermarket but I think we can all take away a good lesson here. Always wash your baked goods.
- radiantstorm, on 05/19/2008, -0/+15Come on. He was just making it all HIS.
- getoffmybridge, on 05/05/2009, -0/+15The only thing that makes my life complete is when I turn your face into a toilet seat.
- inactive, on 05/19/2008, -1/+16except HIV.
- po43292, on 05/19/2008, -0/+13Sodas that come in 12 packs should be ok. The ones from machines or loose six packs I can see wiping the top before you drink it. I used to work in grocery and the stockboys would sit on top of the stacks of loose six pack soda cans all the time.
- To0pak, on 05/19/2008, -0/+13*Stops eating apple*
- staffell, on 05/19/2008, -2/+14the title makes it sound like he was spraying piss from a bottle
- dhughes, on 05/19/2008, -1/+13 Approximately six inches in length.
- roflbrothel, on 05/19/2008, -0/+12Indeed! This is highly irregular!
- darkfish, on 05/19/2008, -3/+15How do you build up immunity to pesticides and herbicides, and other (possibly banned) chemicals? This is more of a concern these days with produce coming into the US and EU from all over the world, especially China where contamination issues have been found before.
- rypic7, on 05/19/2008, -1/+13sometimes i wonder if people do crazy ***** like this just because they know its weird enough to make it to the front page of digg. i found the missing motive!
- zadadka, on 05/19/2008, -1/+13"Every Tiddle Helps"?
- inactive, on 05/19/2008, -0/+11So you saw it?
- gritta, on 05/19/2008, -0/+11I used to work in Tesco Express and someone came in once and put some human faeces on one of the shelves. These people must be mentally ill or something.
- inactive, on 05/19/2008, -1/+11That's because he was.
- NeoNevermore, on 05/19/2008, -1/+11This is making me think twice before buying "Golden Delicious Apples"
- Scuzbucket, on 05/19/2008, -0/+10Makes you wonder how many people do things like that and get away with it..........
