Today is the day when it becomes illegal to sell lightbulbs that actually work.
From the above linked article:
In Britain, trading standards officers will be carrying out inspections and members of the public will be able to report any shop continuing to stock the illegal bulbs.
Any individual found importing the bulbs into the EU will face a £5,000 fine and it could be an unlimited amount for big companies.
If I should happen to spot any retailers selling offending lightbulbs whilst out later I shall save them the worry of prosecution and buy the fucking lot!
Besides, what kind of sad, anal, submissive, arselicking wanker is actually going to report their local Wilkinsons for stocking a product that is perfectly functional and decent value for money? I'd love to meet such a person, I don't think I'd stop ripping the piss out them for the rest of time :-)
Oh, and if the EU really wants to cut carbon emissions that much, perhaps it should stop fucking expanding.
