*Repugnant mass of congealed rotting fat and other sickening waste found

*Sewage workers have never seen the likes of the mass - as big as a bus

*It could have sent sewage surging onto the streets of south London

A lump of fat the size of a double decker bus has been discovered clogging a London sewer.
The Fatberg, described as 15 tonnes of festering food mixed with wet wipes and a host of other disgusting ephemera, was found blocking pipes under Kingston in south London.

Looks like the beginnings of a good public service ad to keep your cholesterol in check. Just sayin’

Mr. Rooter has to come out and snake the same sort of thing out from under my house about once every other year.

Too right!

For instance: the UK constructed dhimmified symbols of Islamic victory at the site of two Muslim atrocities. One was an enormous crescent facing Mecca and the other - most disgustingly - was a scale-model of the K’abah.

Oh no wait, my bad. That crap happened in America.

No wonder you’re projecting your insecurity and hate onto us - you can’t bear to look at your own country.

I always wondered what happened to Rosie O’Donnell’s career.

Shhh . . . don’t tell Obama. He might want to buy it, dry it and make us use it for a really natural fuel source!

“Who’d have known that Obama’s group had visited London?”

Group?

I’m thinking the White House Wookie could cause that in one “sit down.”
