Stop being melodramatic little twats, children told

CHILDREN have been told to take it down a few notches and stop being so bloody melodramatic.

Parents across the nation have told their offspring to stop making such a huge deal of everything from incredibly tedious playground events to seeing a bee.

Mum-of-three Nikki Hollis said: “Today my two-year-old started screeching like he was trying to cause an avalanche somewhere thousands of miles away.

“Why? There was a bit of sweetcorn in his mashed potato. One tiny bit, but could he just pick it out? No. That would be too easy, wouldn’t it? Bloody drama queen.”

Dad-of-two Roy Hobbs agreed: “My five-year-old thinks it’s an earth-shattering event if her friend Katie isn’t friends with Liam anymore. Christ. Get a sense of perspective.

“Also she doesn’t like having her hair washed and screams like there’s a shark in the bath. Every. Single. Bath time. The neighbours must think we’re monsters.”

Neighbour Tom Booker said: “That’s OK. I have two melodramatic little shits of my own.”

Is he the one or just a robot sent back from the future to make sure you give birth to the leader of the resistance?

IN the busy modern world it can be hard to know exactly what kind of relationship you’re in.

You might really like a guy and he seems to like you back, but he also claims he’s a near-indestructible robot sent from the future to ensure you give birth to the great leader who saves mankind. Take our test and find out!

You’re in a restaurant and the waiter brings him the wrong order. What does he do?

A. Politely tells the waiter he’s been given the wrong meal and waits for the correct one to arrive.

B. Opens fire on the whole restaurant with a Gatling gun before throwing you over his shoulder, blasting his way past the concierge and escaping on a big motorcycle.

When he meets your parents, how does he come across?

A. He makes pleasant conversation, often complimenting them on their home, and gets on well with the dog.

B. He accuses your father of being a shape-shifting robot that’s been sent back from the same future as him and is planning to kill you. He also gets on well with the dog.

He’s thinking about proposing. Does he ask your dad first?

A. Yes, because he’s quite old-fashioned like that.

B. No. Instead he throws your father into a vat of boiling metal in an iron smelting factory. Strangely, after doing this he makes an inappropriate quip, such as “Happy father’s day!”.

Mostly As: He’s polite, charming and old-fashioned. Possibly a robot, but definitely a keeper.

Mostly Bs: He’s definitely a killer cyborg. Probably not ‘Mr Right’, but he could be ‘Mr Right Now’.
