Community for adult children of Daily Mail readers

[livejournal.com profile] dailymail_rehab contains gems like this:
Mother: "here's some money, go and buy the Daily Mail"
Me: "OK" (thinks: I need to buy some cigarettes)
*returns with paper*
Me: "I don't know how you can read that crap"
Mother: "Well! You bought it!"
Me: "um"

Tracey makes me buy the Daily Fascist so she can play the scratchcard game.

This causes me intense pain.

Have you seen [livejournal.com profile] sneerpout's story on how the Daily Mail lied about her work's alleged lottery grant?

I can't find it, I guess it must be friends-only...

Yeah, it was, sorry. Basically, the Mail had added an organisation doing stuff they didn't approve of to the list of bad people getting lottery funding when the organisation never got a grant in the first place...

I did see the Mail article in question, I think. Basically a big spread about 'the Lottery gives money to people who don't agree with us 100% on all issues. Therefore it's evil'.

This was just after the 'Ulrika Johnson was raped. Sex is evil' spread.
