Ex wife once saw ‘Assault and Pepper’ shakers in a shop and demanded I tell them on Twitter that we’d be boycotting the store until they removed it from sale. She was even more unhappy with me when I told her that was ridiculous and if she wanted to do it she could open her own twitter account and do it herself
They must do. What's surprising is that there seems to be a lot of people who think their opinions on trivial matters are so important that a) they should contact the local news to share them and b) that action should be taken based on their opinions.
When I lived back home I occasionally called the Radio Devon phone in with some ridiculous made up problems (my wheelie bin had different sized wheels and so on) in the hope that it would trigger some lunatic calls. Sometimes it did.
Haha that's hilarious! An unbalanced bin can be highly traumatic I hear!
Half of them calling up on our one are looney bins or unbalanced bins if you will!! A lot of comedians do skits on the type of calls the show gets!
Every so often you do get some genuine grievances and they sometimes get a good outcome by shaming a company into fixing said grievance or by uniting the general public about a serious issue.
No. What they have is "journalists" getting in touch with everyone they can find who might be offended until they can pursaude one to be angry enough to write a story about it. Cunts.
My sister had a party once and some rando that came with an invited guest kicked up a hullabaloo because, in her kitchen, my sister had one of those knife blocks in the shape of a little man.
Her problem was that she had known someone who had been stabbed (years earlier). She was outraged that anyone should own and display such a thing when people are walking around out there knowing other people who have been stabbed.
I’ve got a Voodoo knife block too had a plumber round once and he absolutely loved it, even asked to take a picture. If I didn’t use it all the time, I would’ve given it to him.
Oh boy! It was a long time ago. Maybe 20 years?
I know they told her to leave but I think it took a LOT to get her to go.
She was the mother of a girl my nephew wanted to sleep with. So he had to keep the charm going but still get her and the mum to go before my sister lost her shit and cock blocked him. lol
LEGEND it's really not that big deal and people like this lady as just looking at any reason to get into the news honestly
Not exactly the same but when my families dog was small she had a big health scare which ended up with us having to drive her cross country to another specialty vets.. with her organs in a coolbag. She had to have her uterus and stuff removed due to a cyst growing on it at our local emergency vets and it was such a bizarre case the other vets (were in Wales and we had to drive to Bristol) wanted to see the specimen up close and stuff. Kinda wish they gave us one of these to take her uterus up in lmao
I can see a lot of NHS doctors and nurses owning this just for kicks. We used to keep a drawer of syringe shaped highlighters that came from pharmaceutical reps just because they were funny.
My 11 Yr old daughter begged me for hers when she saw it on Amazon. She doesn't use it for school though, I thought they may say something, lol. She has it at home and likes to keep her special things in it and uses it instead of a bag.
Pretty sure the original is from The Diabolical Gift People and they released a statement about it too. Probably best off getting it from them so you don’t end up with a bad knock off from Amazon.
I had been trying to find one of these for SOOOOO many years (for something less than re-mortgage price) and had no luck. I had to keep waiting for the news to die down (no pun intended) and now that miserable old baggage has just put the price up again... Thanks, Barbara 🙄😒
Unironically my own kids heart transplant was smaller, because her own heart was so enlarged at 3 months old she could have had a toddlers heart put into the space, instead she had a very close to newborns and it was wild when we couldn't see the heart beating below her ribs anymore.
The opposite, babies hearts are harder to get because it takes some serious strength to let your baby be wheeled away where life support is removed and then as soon as they are legally dead the heart is taken and rushed to the recepient. The heart can only survive for like 4 hours once taken old and put on ice or whatever way they keep it cold.
When our baby was waiting for a heart, we also wanted to donate anything that could be donated if she was to pass away before she was offered a heart, because her heart wouldn't be viable the process is different, I could be with her while machines were turned off. Id be able to hold her while she took her last breaths however long that might have been, and then I would have a moment with her before they would need to take her to get the organs. But at least she would have died with me holding her you know? Then you send the outfit you want her put into and they retrieve the organs, make her presentable and dress her in what you want and then you can have as much time as you want with her in a room with just you two until youre ready to say goodbye.
But for the donor because the heart needs to be super fresh, they send their baby away to pass and they dont get to hold them while they go. They get to be with them as long as they want after, but its not easy for a parent, to let their baby go away for heart donation. Its honest incredible what they did for my baby to have a chance at life. There is an increase in hearts available in the winter months. My baby got hers in October, another baby on the ward got one in december I think it was and another was around that time too but I cqnt mind which month. They get a lot from car crashes, this is any age by the way.
Same, I might have to buy one and send it in woth my kid for school trips if she has any, this would be extra funny because she had a heart transplant lol id l9ve to see the staffs faces if we did it.
"Kaylee Davidson Olley wants retailers to stop selling the product, made by a company which says it has no intention to mock or diminish organ transplantation."
What the f**k? That's not the point. It's that it's your lunch box and people might take a second look and wonder what the hell? It's funny.
The best part is that I didn't know these existed until now, and I can see they're on sale in all sorts of places. My daughter works in a hospital (not as a nurse) and I am so tempted...
Imagine your baby dies and you make the decision to donate its heart to give another baby a chance at life and then that baby grows up to have no sense of humour.
I saw the woman's original posts on Facebook before they were picked up by national news. I expected to open the comments and see people telling her to get a grip, but everyone was supporting her.
I'm what most people would class as a leftie with pink hair and pronouns, and even this is too woke for me. I thought the bag was funny. It's not mocking organ donors/receivers, it's just a witty lunchbag to make people laugh when they see it in the work fridge
I know her personally, she was a friend of my mam’s, I’m also a total woke idiot, pronouns and all, but she isn’t ‘that’ kind of ‘woke’, she thinks of herself so highly because she was the first transplant in our local hospital, so she constantly needs to rub it in everyone’s faces that she was that baby and how special she is because of it, she throws hissy fits any time there’s ’organ donation’ discussion online and offline, genuinely one of the most pathetic people we know lmao
I haven't had a transplant but I have needed heart surgery twice and my doctors thought I might've needed a valve replacement. My father also had a heart condition that needed surgery and later got heart failure.
I'm also pretty "woke". I believe in stuff like gentle parenting, equal rights, disability accommodation, mental health awareness etc.
When I saw this advertised on Facebook I showed my boyfriend and I bought it. We thought it was funny.
My kids got my one of those but it’s white with red writing, I use it every day. The people at work think it’s funny but I get some weird looks on the bus.
I think probably the bags used for transportation should not be mimicked just to make sure no peak coincidence causes someone's heart to be replaced with a baked-potato.
Someone finds something offensive and the bandwagon then finds that idea offensive and suddenly there are more people taking offense to something negligible and it all comes full hypocritical circle.
The world has lost respect for the rest of the world.
My Mum used to work with her. Apparently her transplant is her whole personality. She complained about it on Facebook first.
I have this bag. I work in a hospital and my colleagues either don't give a sh*t or find it pretty funny. Nobody has ever told me it's offensive or insensitive.
I'm also a blood donor, on the organ donor list, and the stem cell donation register.
This isn't a new bag, either. I'm sure it's been a conversation starter for a lot of people. There's much worse things in this world to be concerned over.

This is so dumb. I know a few transplant patients, my own kid being one of them. We crack jokes all the time much worse than this lunch bag. This woman would faint. We joke that we've searched our kid for 666 but cannot find it anywhere, it must be etched into the donated heart. We mean nothing mean by it just shes a little shit sometimes. We deeply respect the donors and the suffering they went through to give our child a chance at life. Our friends daughter had a transplant and like to.joke shes now an older man when shes grumpy or whatever. Just gallows humour innit.

"It's not to my taste, so I don't think anyone else should be allowed to have one".
These people are exhausting
Liver alone, her heart was in the right place.
Well clearly not anymore
Which one?
Yeah i hear she liked this lunch bag originally.
She's since had a change of heart.
The one in the bag, of course
In my lunch bag
Absolute banger
But it was two sizes too small.
"What if someone mistakes a real human organ container for a lunch box and eats a human heart that was meant for an orphan"
i thought the point of orphans was to be able to harvest healthy hearts for rich people
Note: stop feeding human hearts to orphans
🤣
Exactly this
Truly amongst the worst of attitudes.
Once again we’re changing what the majority have to deal with, to please the minority

She was even more unhappy with me when I told her that was ridiculous and if she wanted to do it she could open her own twitter account and do it herself
I don’t use this phrase often but…. What a melt
She's the whole toastie
Do news organisations have a special hotline these people can call when they want to complain about something?
They must do. What's surprising is that there seems to be a lot of people who think their opinions on trivial matters are so important that a) they should contact the local news to share them and b) that action should be taken based on their opinions.
What's REALLY mental is that sometimes action is taken on their behalf
Yep, you can freephone them on 0800 COMPOFACE and they'll connect you to a newspaper serving your area.
Quite ingenious, if you ask me!
I think journalists comb through local Facebook groups too for stories
Here in Ireland we have a radio show that people call in to just complain about stuff. It's mental the stuff that people phone up about!!!
When I lived back home I occasionally called the Radio Devon phone in with some ridiculous made up problems (my wheelie bin had different sized wheels and so on) in the hope that it would trigger some lunatic calls. Sometimes it did.
Haha that's hilarious! An unbalanced bin can be highly traumatic I hear!
Half of them calling up on our one are looney bins or unbalanced bins if you will!! A lot of comedians do skits on the type of calls the show gets!

No. What they have is "journalists" getting in touch with everyone they can find who might be offended until they can pursaude one to be angry enough to write a story about it. Cunts.
Well, yeah. What else would they do, complain on reddit?
My sister had a party once and some rando that came with an invited guest kicked up a hullabaloo because, in her kitchen, my sister had one of those knife blocks in the shape of a little man.
Her problem was that she had known someone who had been stabbed (years earlier). She was outraged that anyone should own and display such a thing when people are walking around out there knowing other people who have been stabbed.
I’ve got a Voodoo knife block too had a plumber round once and he absolutely loved it, even asked to take a picture. If I didn’t use it all the time, I would’ve given it to him.
Wait until she finds out about the pen holder shaped like julius caesar where the pens go into his back
Too soon
You used to be able to get a Deadpool head that you could stick kitchen knives in
I've got one of them
Oh I've always wanted one of those.
What was the outcome?
Oh boy! It was a long time ago. Maybe 20 years? I know they told her to leave but I think it took a LOT to get her to go. She was the mother of a girl my nephew wanted to sleep with. So he had to keep the charm going but still get her and the mum to go before my sister lost her shit and cock blocked him. lol
I kinda need to buy one now because that's hilarious
The company who made it put a statement on Instagram telling her to do one and that they won't stop selling it
LEGEND it's really not that big deal and people like this lady as just looking at any reason to get into the news honestly

I can see a lot of NHS doctors and nurses owning this just for kicks. We used to keep a drawer of syringe shaped highlighters that came from pharmaceutical reps just because they were funny.
Based on some of the comments in this thread, maybe it was an advertising campaign
Where do you get one asking for a friend.
My 11 Yr old daughter begged me for hers when she saw it on Amazon. She doesn't use it for school though, I thought they may say something, lol. She has it at home and likes to keep her special things in it and uses it instead of a bag.
There's several on amazon
Pretty sure the original is from The Diabolical Gift People and they released a statement about it too. Probably best off getting it from them so you don’t end up with a bad knock off from Amazon.
I had been trying to find one of these for SOOOOO many years (for something less than re-mortgage price) and had no luck. I had to keep waiting for the news to die down (no pun intended) and now that miserable old baggage has just put the price up again... Thanks, Barbara 🙄😒
😹
I got one from white elephant and I love it
Fantastic username
Need to get one for my missus who works in a hospital 😄
Imagine surviving a fucking heart transplant just to spend your second chance at life bitching about people's lunch bags.
Imagine if they got the heart from someone like Frankie Boyle he would be turning in his grave... if he had actually died.
Well if you just give her his heart that'll sort itself out.
Unless he's got a backup himself off someone. Actually, maybe there's a chain of donors like hermit crabs waiting for their shells
“Scientists still working on sense of humour transplants: early trials deemed unsuccessful”
Maybe the heart she got was two sizes too small.
Unironically my own kids heart transplant was smaller, because her own heart was so enlarged at 3 months old she could have had a toddlers heart put into the space, instead she had a very close to newborns and it was wild when we couldn't see the heart beating below her ribs anymore.
I’ve never had to think about it before, but I’m assuming that newborn size hearts have better availability than slightly bigger ones.
I certainly don’t envy you having to endure any of that, I think I’d be a wreck.
The opposite, babies hearts are harder to get because it takes some serious strength to let your baby be wheeled away where life support is removed and then as soon as they are legally dead the heart is taken and rushed to the recepient. The heart can only survive for like 4 hours once taken old and put on ice or whatever way they keep it cold.

They get a lot from car crashes, this is any age by the way.
I know someone with this bag. Some people just want to be offended and suck the fun out of everything.
I have this bag.
I've got Mrs Johnson's liver in it for my Christmas dindins.
See. Now I want one even more
Same, I might have to buy one and send it in woth my kid for school trips if she has any, this would be extra funny because she had a heart transplant lol id l9ve to see the staffs faces if we did it.
Chap at works got one of these. Find it quite comical.
I really want one, have we got a link to a way for me to buy this from the UK? Honestly, it's a belter.
https://amzn.eu/d/isZWNUT
Here you go
Wondering if the whole story is an elaborate marketing ploy
"Kaylee Davidson Olley wants retailers to stop selling the product, made by a company which says it has no intention to mock or diminish organ transplantation."
What the f**k? That's not the point. It's that it's your lunch box and people might take a second look and wonder what the hell? It's funny.

Can you imagine the inquest when someone mixes up her lunch bag and installs a tuna mayo sandwich in some guys chest.
Fucking hell, look at BUPA by here!
Only egg cress on the NHS
You get cress? Well ooh laa di daa with your green stuff
We get egg mayo only and I'm not sure about the egg or the mayo. No greenery in sight!
Plot twist: she’s actually the person selling these and is just drumming up publicity.
TBH I know a lot of med students who have these, either bought by them or for them
Just wait until she sees the sandwich bags with the mould pattern on them.
Should have had a sense of humour transplant, ammiright?!
you’d think she’d be a fan of organ transplant gear
She needs to calm down I reckon, for the most obvious reason
I got mine at cherry lane garden centre in the uk, I must use it more often from now on
These adverts are getting clever
Imagine your baby dies and you make the decision to donate its heart to give another baby a chance at life and then that baby grows up to have no sense of humour.
I just love the fact she said she was so outraged she had to buy one to protest it.
I saw the woman's original posts on Facebook before they were picked up by national news. I expected to open the comments and see people telling her to get a grip, but everyone was supporting her.

The world is a wonderful place, just full of people waiting to be offended by something.
It's just a joke, tho
Great thing about free speech is you can say you don't like something and others get to say they do like it.
Freedom baby
My kids got my one of those but it’s white with red writing, I use it every day. The people at work think it’s funny but I get some weird looks on the bus.
Ach, not kidneys for lunch again
Should have transplanted a sense of humour to go with the heart
What a fun sponge
My wife has one of these and I sometimes use this for my lunch. Makes my students do a double take when I leave it on my desk...
'Complainant manipulates story in order to let everyone know that she has had a heart transplant.'
With any luck she will get a sense of humor transplant for Christmas.
Its all fun and games untill a paramedic and their child accidently pick up the wrong bags on the way to work.
This is why I don’t believe any signs I read. 99% of them are just people attempting to prevent me stealing their lunch.
I think probably the bags used for transportation should not be mimicked just to make sure no peak coincidence causes someone's heart to be replaced with a baked-potato.
I feel like getting offended over stupid things is now a competitive sport
I would’ve loved that as a lunch bag
These idiots make it funnier.
Some of the amazon reviews are in a similar vein and funny too
‘They forgot to include my favoured cheese and onion crisps. Worse, there was no Penguin.’
My teen has one as his lunchbag in school
The comments are exactly as I imagined here.
Someone finds something offensive and the bandwagon then finds that idea offensive and suddenly there are more people taking offense to something negligible and it all comes full hypocritical circle.
The world has lost respect for the rest of the world.
Get a grip.
Holy shit, we know this woman personally, she’s such a dickhead lmao
My Mum used to work with her. Apparently her transplant is her whole personality. She complained about it on Facebook first. I have this bag.

I had heart surgery and bought it. I thought it was funny.
Never thought my heart condition had much to do with my identity. Sure, the experiences with it partly shaped me, but I'm not my condition.
Oh, come on. Have a heart. It's Christmas!

People need to deal with their own problems instead of making them everyone else’s. This prat needs therapy.
I've had a heart transplant (September 2017) and I really want one of these now!
FFS! If I complained about everything I despised and got my own way! None of you humans would be drawing breath!!
The retailer doesn't have the heart to sell these anymore 😕
This is so dumb. I know a few transplant patients, my own kid being one of them. We crack jokes all the time much worse than this lunch bag. This woman would faint.

I saw this on Instagram, and I think it's a way for her to raise awareness about organ donation.
That's far more sensible than her whining over this.
But you posted an image of the link so we can't read the comments!
I used Google lens to extract it. That doesn't take us to the fb post of course but I can't be bothered with that😅

Comments in Facebook, It’s roughly the same as in here
what a waste of life — you get a heart transplant just to complain about transplants and lunches?
When is she getting a face transplant?
I'm always suspicious of grown adults with very long hair.
