Think of Britain and what do you think of
?

Based on this website, Britain: What a State is a send-up of an entire way of life. From the unique British class system to pubs and our beloved transport network, every element of our society is brilliantly explained and illustrated in a series of wincingly accurate spoof official forms from the DoSS.

Think The Framley Examiner meets the entire output of Her Majesty’s Stationery Office and you have Britain: What a State.

You'll be laughing on the other side of your face.

Advertising Featurette

Being human is all about expressing yourself, but as we get older, our skin dries up and those expressions start to leave micro-canyons in our faces. You may think "laugh lines", but he's thinking "what an ugly, corroded old trollop, I wouldn't touch her with wet fish".

But now there's an answer and it doesn't involve keying some smug bastard's penile extension of a car, although it is just as fashionably expensive. Try new L'Organelline Facial Fortifusion - with its patent Pro-Quantum Cloud of Possibility - and reduce the appearance of 87.95% of your wrinkles*.

Put simply, but buttered up with some pseudo-scientific codswallop, your face looks awful, but buying into a fantastic promise and absorbing some strong transdermal hallucinogens will sort everything out.

You owe it to yourself. Laugh on the other side of your face.
