The Mash guide to BDSM

IT’S the underground sex craze that’s gone overground, with bondage on Country File and vicars theming their sermons around butt plugs. Here’s our guide:

— The first question you’ll be asked at any S&M night is “What’s your pain threshold?” Get it officially assessed before you go at your local mechanic or any branch of Kwik-Fit.

— It’s important to know in advance of sex who is the sub and who is the domme. Toss a coin and if the loser accepts the result without demanding the best of three, they’re the sub.

— Always decide beforehand on a safeword. Strong safewords contain a mix of lower and upper-case letters, numbers and at least one special character using the shift key.

— Knowing your knots makes you indispensable at both a sex party and on a billionaire’s yacht, and doubly so at a sex party on a billionaire’s yacht.

— Be creative and make your own anal beads by going to any bead shop and picking a selection you like. Ensure the beads you are buying are anal by asking the lady behind the counter.

— If an object becomes lodged internally, try just leaving it. Most likely, it will either work its own way out or you’ll get so used to it you’ll find it hard to remember when it wasn’t there.

— Be careful not to take your enjoyment of fetish items, for example knee-high patent leather boots and riding crops, too far. A good example of people who took fetish wear too far are the Nazis.

Football fans long for good old days when game was more shit

TRUE football fans have demanded a return to the game’s golden age when nobody was very good at it.

A gaggle of men in the corner of a pub wearing 1990s replica kits were definitively in agreement that football had lost its soul and they didn’t know why they still bothered to watch it.

Despite vehement criticism of the encounter between Manchester City and Barcelona showing on the pub’s television, the men watched the entire game, tutting at the ostentatious shows of skill and comparing Luis Suarez unfavourably to Tony Yeboah.

Disillusioned fan Stephen Malley said: “It’s just not the same these days. Who wants to see incredibly skilled super athletes competing in high-tempo, scintillating two-legged contests?

“I liked it back when players had moustaches and spiky haircuts and used to hoof the ball into the stands at the slightest provocation.

“These days it’s all big salaries, shots on target and all that nonsense.”

Even throughout the 1990s, only exceptional players were able to get the ball anywhere near the goal. During the 1990 World Cup just one goal was scored, and most fans never saw a live goal during the decade.

Malley said: “What an age that was. I say bring back the back-pass rule and small shorts hitched up so high players’ nut sacks popped out when they jumped for headers.”
