"Piss be with you, my child."
2. And when the Mail managed to find a local angle.
3. When a man in military dress wandered around pushing a toy monkey in a pram.
Although you won't bump into him these days; Kings Heath's beloved Monkey Man has since found true love in the Welsh seaside town of Llandudno.
4. When the phrase "dig into your meal" was taken a bit too literally by a hipster pub.
My lunch from Monday served on a shovel #onlyinbirmingham
You've heard of plates, right?
5. When someone improved this street sign with a bottle of Tipp-Ex.
6. And when someone else went one step further.
Stay classy, Digbeth.

Bin there, done that.

Bananaman vs. Streakerman: Dawn of Ruckus, coming to Brum cinemas soon.
9. And when Spider-Man was spotted handing out food to homeless people in the city centre.

Why.

Moral of the story? Never mix tequila with inflatable ducks.

17. When this snack bar sold 99p "donor" meat.

Bring it home. It's our Elgin Marbles.

21. And, last but by no means least, when a Brummie royalist's tattoo tribute backfired badly.
"To be honest, I should have twigged when he was humming 'Another One Bites The Dust' and 'We Will Rock You' all the way through the procedure." Amazing.
Never change, Birmingham. Never change.
