According to an online survey commissioned by haggis manufacturers Hall's of Broxburn, released on 26 November 2003, one-third of U.S. visitors to Scotland believed the wild haggis to be a real creature.

reminds me of the tweets going around about how trump wants to pardon all the capitol building rioters, so they should all send their name and address to the justice department.
Heh, yeah. "Please describe the crime you would like to be pardoned for." Dunno if it's caught anyone but it's a lovely joke.

Then again, haven't there been real cases of cops putting out messages on social media saying "We found some drugs, if you think they're yours then please get in touch" and people actually doing exactly that?

Every swear word in the English language has been ranked in order of offensiveness.
The UK’s communications regulator, Ofcom, interviewed more than 200 people across the UK on how offensive they find a vast array of rude and offensive words and insults.
People were asked their opinion on 150 words in total. These included general swear words, words linked to race and ethnicity, gender and sexuality, body parts and health conditions, religious insults and sexual references, as well as certain hand gestures.
They were asked to rate words as mild, medium, strong or strongest.
And this is what Ofcom found.
For general swear words, the following words were seen as...
