Adult nappies, and other products Trump won't be putting tariffs on

DONALD Trump is enjoying bullying other nations with tariffs, but he’s also a selfish bastard who won’t want to pay a cent more for things he uses. Sleep easy if your job depends on these exports.

Hair spray 

Trump hasn’t had any hair disasters recently. That doesn’t mean he’s suddenly developed a luxuriant mane, more probably that he’s using f**kloads of hairspray. There’s no way there’ll be any tariffs on the only grooming product preventing him looking like the weird ghoul-corpse thing from Tales from the Crypt.

Adult nappies 

Babies, whether three months or adult, really get through these so Trump will want to keep his personal hygiene costs down. The stomach-turning rumours about Trump’s alleged nappy use date back to his days on The Apprentice, which raises the question: does Sir Alan Sugar wear them as well? Let’s hope so, because he’s an obnoxious wanker too.

Erectile dysfunction pills  

It’s best not to imagine Trump’s sex life in too much detail but if some form of sex occurs with some lucky lady, you can bet it involves boner pills. He’s safe with Viagra as it’s an American product, but if a European pharma company comes up with a better version Donald will want it. If you’re now imagining him proudly displaying his engorged mushroom penis to some MAGA freak like Laura Loomer, apologies for that mental image. 

Golf balls 

Golfers traditionally lose a lot of balls, and Trump is shit at it so he must lose loads. The cost of constantly replacing them must add up, so no tariffs. Obviously Trump is a pathological liar so his ineptitude doesn’t stop him making wild claims about his skills, such as playing 72 consecutive hole-in-ones, at which point his golf partner, Tiger Woods, said ‘Gee, boss, I wish I had a fraction of your talent, you incredible impressive alpha male stud’, or something equally plausible.

Trump-brandable merchandise tat 

Although most of this comes from, er, America’s sworn enemy China, it’s possible some niche items are churned out by UK firms. So in other words don’t worry about redundancy if the company you work for makes ultra-shit no-brand trainers, trading cards, or really cheap baseball caps that make your head itch.

European women’s fashions 

We’re not suggesting Trump likes to slip into women’s clothes, although he wouldn’t be the first Republican politician to be a massive hypocrite in his personal life. No, Melania loves expensive clothes and Trump has got to keep her sweet. If she ever chooses to spill the beans about their marriage, his habits in general, and their sex life, Trump is utterly, utterly screwed. And not in a literal sense.

Running a sweet farm employing coloured blobs: The f**king deranged mobile games you can't escape online ads for

TOO tight to upgrade to an ad-free version of a site or an app? Looks like you’ll have to learn to live with horrible adverts for dodgy mobile games. Like these…

Royal Match 

Duolingo users will never buy Super, but thanks to unwanted ads know every hidden level of puzzle game Royal Match that no one ever reaches. The jolly King Robert character is unobtrusive – until you’re forced to watch him burned to death or brutally drowned. Apparently that’s what you deserve for refusing to download a charmless rip-off of Candy Crush Saga. And not immersing yourself in the gripping storyline about renovating his castle. For f**k’s sake. 

Hero Wars

These scammy ads get shoved down your throat constantly, but seem to forget they have a game to promote. Instead they’re an apparently unending series of animations about fantasy cartoon sex dominatrixes flirting with centaurs, women in lingerie growing stag horns, and sometimes being demons or horny trees. In-game you click a few dialogue boxes to fight things, very misleading after its softcore porn promotional tools, which surely cost way too much for an extremely bogus app everyone must have instantly uninstalled. 

Sweet Farm

With little Blobbies that the player can hire for help, this ad is clearly aimed at kids able to rinse their parents’ Apple Pay without them knowing. It’s also a genuine Kafkaesque nightmare. Candy blobs act like proles restoring the factory of a domineering sugar baron that may eventually spin them into taffy or something. Obviously the player won’t ever find that out when the game involves walking through jelly and clicking the screen a bit.

Emporea: Realms of War & Magic

Some war strategy games do their historical research, resulting in a satisfying experience for  history nerds and fans of the BBC show Time Commanders, which recreated historical battles with 2005 graphics. Who knew Hannibal’s elephants were so pixellated? Emporea takes a different tack, plastering its ads with shitty AI-generated orcs and trolls, like the ones from old Games Workshop signs, to flog this boring build-a-city game. Spelling ‘orc’ incorrectly in the trailer is not a good sign either.

Refantasia: Charm & Conquer

Games have successfully combined different genres such as shooter and puzzle-solving for decades. This one more ambitiously combines ‘invade a country’ with ‘win a lovely wife’. The resultant mess is laden with massive anime boobs, weird ‘sexy’ cosplay babes and ripoff Pokemon creatures. Ideal for players, presumably aspiring warlords, who want to churn through a dull power-up game for hints of hentai without just clicking on a porn site. Genghis Khan was well-known for his prudishness.

Gossip Harbour

Farmville had an innocence about it when it was a lame Facebook phenomenon for your aunt. Now similar town-based games rely on shock guilt trips featuring family members getting fired, starving, being made homeless, or developing hypothermia because they live in a broken wooden shack in the Arctic. Naturally, these calamities don’t feature in the actual gameplay of Gossip Harbor, which is another crap tile-matching puzzle game. So if you do download it you’ve suffered the double trauma of hearing about countless shattered lives, plus actually owning the game.
