Good old BBC news.

On the 10 O'clock news today there was many a piece on the flooding. One included the line "Even the dead can't escape" before cutting to showing a flooded (well heavily waterlogged at any rate) cemetery.

This was brilliant as before then I was contemplating suicide as an escape method due to my mistaken belief that for some inexplicable reason corpses can escape floods. But that's out of the pan now, because evidently being dead, and then being buried is enough to stop people getting away from oncoming water.

Seriously though, a cemetery is basically some ground, ground does get wet when it rains, very wet when it floods. Was the BBC journalist really expecting that alongside the emergency shelters there'd also be emergency graves set up. We'd dig up the bastards and bury them in some mass grave on a hill until the water level drops again or something. Talk about fucking sensationalism of the media, those bastards just tell us the fucking news I don't want to hear extra bits unless it is a joke like Nick Robinson keeps throwing in.

Still I suppose it'd be a good tagline for a movie "Even the dead can't escape 'THE FLOODS'"
