drop the dead donkey

v. (chiefly British): To run a controversial or inflammatory television news story. A television news story constructed specifically to boost ratings through controversy. A television news story crafted for shock value.

We'll start the news cast with the story about the firefighters rescuing the kitten from the cherry tree. Then we'll drop the dead donkey, and run the story about how they fed it to the firehouse Dalmatian afterwards.

Dead End Love

Dead end love means to fall in love with someone and you would do anything in the world for that person. You strive to be the best you you can be but they still do not love you back. It is worse than the friend zone and worse than hell.

Emma fell into a dead end love with Will.
