Christmas Wish List for 2022?

A tattooed sex robot has inspired fans to ink up their own life-like dolls.

RealDoll, a world leading manufacturer of "luxury love dolls" sent their social media followers into a frenzy by sharing one of their products with tattoos.

The owner of a sex bot named as Snow who apparently lives in 'the Magic Kingdom', has built up a massive Instagram following by sharing various snaps of her.

Computer generated images of snow shared by KKFun show her enjoying scenery such as a jungle and beside dragons in Game of Thrones.

A recent snap however might prove to be a game changer in customised demands from RealDoll customers.

It's not easy being Agent 007's stunt man.

Ace, I'll tell you this right now. If I get this job, this will be my 2 week notice.

Wanted: All-in-one landlord, pub manager and monarch of remote U.K. island
Have you ever wanted to be crowned king or queen? A council in England might have a job for you.

But if you take the gig, you'll move to a remote British island with a population of exactly two, get drenched with beer, and be the caretaker and landlord of a centuries-old pub.

Oh, and the monarch title is purely symbolic.

But tour guide John Murphy says it's well worth the trouble for the chance to live full-time on Piel Island, which he says is known for its "pure isolation and incredible beauty."

I really like the DeWalt circular saw I received today.

We all love a trier, but some gifts are objectively bad and there’s no overlooking it.

Sometimes it just comes down to a question of taste, but there are other times where all you can do is laugh and wonder what the gift-giver could possibly have been thinking.

We don’t want to be ungrateful – after all, it’s the thought that counts – but it’s nice to see the funny side.

So, without further ado, here’s a selection of some of the weirdest and worst Christmas gifts people have ever received.

Do you love or hate McCartney's Wonderful Christmastime?

Why People Hate Paul McCartney's "Wonderful Christmastime," According to a Musicologist

When the docuseries The Beatles: Get Back premiered last month, the Internet came through with a host of great memes about toast, Ringo Starr's flatulence, and George Harrison’s decision to leave the band. But the funniest of the bunch, created by writer Ben Rosen, pokes fun at Paul McCartney and his 1979 holiday staple "Wonderful Christmastime."

Well this boss took it in stride. But deep down I bet he was hurt by these Genius Award Winners.

SECRET SANTA I wasn’t invited to our work Christmas party and I’m the BOSS but I caught my employees on CCTV

A BAR boss caught his "cheeky" employees having a secret Christmas party without him - because they forgot to switch off the CCTV.

Paul Gallagher, joint owner of The Definitely Maybe Bar in Bolton, checked the cameras on Monday to see if service was running smoothly when he saw 10 members of staff having a festive bash without him.
