"I follow loads of disabled cats on Instagram."

"What type of car have you got now?"
"It's a red one."
"Oh cool."
"Yeah." 

9 year old kid: "Did you know, on the dark web, you can get a real Death Note that *whispering* actually kills people?"

Man in van watching two young women walk past at traffic lights: "Oh god! Two beauties… mmm."
Woman shouting back to van man: "Oh god! Creepy old man!"

"I can pay you back in a few weeks, is that alright… It's for my tattoo!" - Visibly stressed-out woman on phone

Daughter: You could get a hot tub and sit in the garden looking at all your Buddha heads.
Mum: Oh yeah that'd be lovely.
Daughter: I don't know why you've got so many, you're not even Buddhist.

"I’ve spent more on buses today than I have on rent."
"No you haven’t you twat."

"I’m tellin’ you fam, that light skinned girl had her hands all over my chips like a raccoon. Disgustin’."

Young lads by Matalan: "It's a total waste of time. Been watching him do wheelies for half an hour."

"Woman came in with a knife poking out of her belly."
"Like, suicide?"
"It was more than an itch."

"When it’s as cold as this, and I do a big ol’ hefty fart, I wonder if people can see the hot air coming out my bum."

We have a favour to ask

LeftLion is Nottingham’s meeting point for information about what’s going on in our city, from the established organisations to the grassroots. We want to keep what we do free to all to access, but increasingly we are relying on revenue from our readers to continue. Can you spare a few quid each month to support us?
