Anyone who’s ever needed a bottle opener but didn’t have one, as a useful YouTube tutorial has come to light showing how to open a bottle of beer using just one sheet of A4 paper. BAD WEEK FOR:
Dieters, after donut chain Krispy Kreme unveiled it’s (disgusting looking) hot dog jam and bacon donut. A man who discovered a snake in his box of cereal. HOMEWORK:
