£300k To Research If Ducks Like The Rain

It’s amazing how easily the Government can burn taxpayers cash on the most stupid schemes and studies. I’m sure you’ll be shaking your head when you read that UK politicians gave the green light for a £300,000 study to find out if ducks like the rain!!!

The three-year study was carried out to ‘ascertain the importance of bathing water to ducks by quantifying their motivation to gain access to water in which they can bathe’ – WTF?

This story would be hilarious if it wasn’t for the fact it was true.
