In many ways, The Sun newspaper is a British institution. It's essential literature for workers, football fans, and millions more who'd never admit to reading it. The paper entertains, it titillates, and it allows readers to ask Deirdre what to do if their brother is shagging their wife who's also having an affair with the mayor two towns over.

Not that they seem to mind. Earlier today, the paper's Twitter account asked its followers for their 'breast cleavage snaps' (strong pun TBH).

This being Twitter, the majority of people took it as an opportunity to mercilessly troll the paper, not send it pictures of their cleavage.

Within minutes all sorts of replies were coming in. Here are some of the best:
