    Don't paedophiles also deserve to go on zoo tours?

    Could we use them as a food source?

    There’s a famous 4chan text about being a kid and seeing Arnold’s Predator film and getting an Xbox for Christmas that year and sets up their Xbox ID as “Child_Predator” or something similar.

    You need to apply for a job at the Daily Mail. That would go down very well with their readers.

    Funnily enough I’ve been anti-Daily Mail since… (checks notes)… about 95-ish years ago when they got into bed with Moseley.

    To be honest, feeding nonces too (imprisoned) wild animals would probably get the tabloid vote.

    This is automation. They have their website software set up to automatically take the title of whatever tour/service, and have the page split ticket sales by age group. The other week you might've seen "Child Herbivore Tours", or "Adult Penguin Feeding".
