I once dated a guy who always pronounced the ‘g’ in ‘poignant’. Like, ‘poyg-nant’. I tried pronouncing it correctly in front of him a couple of times, but he didn’t get it. Or perhaps wasn’t listening to me. After that I realised he also used the word unusually frequently, and mostly incorrectly. Whenever I hear the…

Oh LORD I cannot handle eating sounds. I used to live with a woman who ate so loudly, even with her mouth closed, that it was like being inside her mouth. She practically fucking echoed.

Okay no, this is the food crime I’m taking about.

I’m down with this option, but my favourite is tartare sauce.

It’s just fries with gravy over them, like gravy you'd put over a roast. It's pretty common in Australia, where I am, but it grosses me out. Where are you?

Not me, but my Dad. When I was a kid I really hated hot chips with gravy. I still do, they’re disgusting and if you like them you’re bad. But Dad loved chips and gravy, and refused to provide any other condiments when we had chips. When asked for tomato sauce (ketchup) he said that was disgusting. He then said that he…

The Church has spent centuries abusing children, marginalising women, destroying LGBT people and being the faith of choice for colonisers, while simultaneously paying no tax and claiming the ultimate moral high ground. View must be different from up there. Colour me shocked that they attract so many criminals. This…

Yeah, this is not a good format. Reynolds should be embarrassed by this. 

I used to be bothered by bad spelling, until I did an English degree and learnt that standardised spelling is a fairly recent innovation. Language is a constantly evolving thing, changing and developing to meet the communication needs of its users. English in particular is a glorious mutt of a language, which is why…

The error in your first sentence really makes your point.

These dudes aren’t interested in cultivating their personalities, humour or anything else. And they don’t care about those attributes in women.

I mean, she should have won, but yeah, she should DEFINITELY not run again. Surely she's saner than that? Whichever PA is running her twitter has good taste in music though.

This level of detail just feels so unnecessary. Everyone's puked before, damn.

I’m sure he prefers she call it alimony rather than hush money.

If you're drunk enough or if my brother's manic little dog has got out of the yard, you can run in them. You just have to want it.

My friend is currently pregnant and we were tossing around baby names just last night. That was the first time I came across ‘Cannon’ as well. Can’t help feeling that naming an infant after artillery is fucking insane.

You have found the correct use for this image.

That outfit cost thousands of dollars, according to the linked article. I know they live in a different reality, but I'm always kind of disappointed when rich drop that kind of money to look so fucking ordinary.

I am not a clean freak and I don’t wear makeup but even I can see this is fucking revolting. How could you put something on your skin that some unknown stranger has oh my god I can’t even finish the sentence this is so disgusting. What all is wrong with people? This is going to make my skin crawl for the rest of the…

This is so dumb, but where did everyone ash? Like you’re just walking around, smoking in hospitals like you do, where do you ash? Were there ashtrays everywhere? Did you carry one of those little personal ashtrays?
