It’s not uncommon for fire services to warn people about dangers and concerns. We all remember being told not to throw water onto an chip pan fire, but how many of us have ever been warned by a fireman about wearing a cock ring?

London Fire Brigade tweeted a warning on December 29th that was rather unexpected.

It came as part of a campaign over the Christmas period to draw attention to time-wasting and hoax calls.

Between 2010 and 2014 there were 8,600 hoax and time-wasting calls to the London Fire Brigade, which included 1,543 people stuck in things like furniture and bog seats. Obviously, it’s not cool if you’re stuck like that, but it really isn’t a job for the fire brigade, is it? Just get your mate to help you. Preferably after they’ve taken a photo or filmed it and sent it to us.

5 people a year phone the fire brigade because their cock is stuck in a penis ring, which is pretty fucking ridiculous. What is the best possible outcome that they’re hoping for? Get the angle grinder out the back and cut it off?

To be fair, there is the odd occasion of people getting stuck inside things that the fire brigade obviously should be deal with. Car wrecks. Burning buildings. Washing machines.
