CHIP SHOP MAN SAYS: "What's that mate? Apples? Nah, never eat 'em. I just work in chip shop I do, mate. Just eat chips. Wouldn't know much about apples. Just chips really. 

"What's that? Apple? What's that then when it's at home? An eye-phone? A phone for the eyes? How's that work then? Not that I'd know anything about it even if you did 'splain it. I just work in a chip shop I do. Yeah - and, yeah, don't put your fingers in the wooden fork dispenser like that, mate. Cheers. God bless ya."

APPLE RAISES PRICES

Sending shockwaves around the world, Apple has raised the minimum price of apps on its App Store from 69p to 79p. According to Wired, the price "hike" is a consequence of a new Europe-wide tax arrangement, which came into effect on the 1st of January, and affects the sale of all digital productszzzzzzzzZZZZzzz... zzz... ZzzZzz...

...zzz... zzzZZZZZzzzzZZzzz... Huh? Whassa? Father? Father, is that you? Father, why are you wearing a special harness, with an integral furrow? Is it to catch the meat drippings from that juicy pie you're eating, father...? 
Oh! Oh, father! You are fading.... fading... fading awaaaaay... do not leave me again, father! Fatherrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!

As is the natural way of things, the Twitterati were all up in arms and stuff about Apple's shocking money grab - outraged at having to spend an extra 10p to play the latest Flappy Bird clone. 

This isn't the first time Apple has annoyed people with its tax-related behaviours. The evil mega-corporation has previously come under fire for allegedly aggressive tax-avoidance practices, and spitting in a cat's face before shouting "TAX!

CHIP SHOP MAN SAYS: "Seriously, mate, I ain't being funny - but if everyone comes in here and just helps themselves to multiple forks, or starts playing with 'em, it's gonna have to come out of our profits. You only need one. You don't need to take fifteen. Seriously, that's taking the piss that is. I don't care if you think they only cost about a penny each - that ain't the point. Off the forks or get out."

CHIP SHOP MAN SAYS: "Yeah, we get lots of the old steam in the chip shop we do. Bloody steams up like a dry cleaners in here some days. 

"When I get home me other half says to me 'God, you smell like chip steam'. And I says to him 'Yeah, I know I smell like steam and I bloody love it. I bloody love all that boiling chip fat steam getting in me hair and clothes. Now shut your fat face, you manky tosser, and run us a bath'. Oi! For the last time - off the forks! You only need one."

"What's that you sayin'? Nintendo, mate? Nah, wouldn't know nothing about no Nintendo. I just work in a chip shop I do. Just know about chips. Yeah, don't touch the forks, mate. I ain't tryin' to be funny, but if you only need one, just take one. Don't play with 'em, yeah?"

A surprisingly tender insight into both the private life of a fast food employee and the games industry there.
I shudder to think what the colonials will make of him though, probably mistake it for some of crisp snack production factory worker because they use the wrong words for everything, do you see?

Oh Chip Shop Man!

For the true Biffo devotee, Pudsey The Movie is on Netflix now. I assume Mr. B gets paid at least 0.00001p every time someone watches it.
