A redditor called MangyRunt snapped a picture of a London Metropolitan University advertisement on a London bus stop and shared it in the r/London subreddit.
The advertisement read, "Demi -- London Met graduate. Loves his mum, fried chicken, and his Biomedical Science degree. Do something you love this September."
