The drs name on the birth certificate was the same as the name given as a result of the DNA test.

you only need to be ok right now. Don’t worry about tomorrow, just focus on maintaining your okayness in the present.

I’m eternally grey. I reckon I’ve been hanging around here for at least 8 years. lost my burner (that was also grey) but always been flutterby plant. grey flutterby plant.

my friend put in a gorgeous perspex splash back. it looks a bit like this pic:

Made this. I did not embroider two fuck off black lines- I’m protecting my friend’s identity!

Twat means lady garden, as does cunt, but twat is inoffensive in almost all circumstances and cunt isn’t. Twat also means twit

Not by everyone. It’s a class/ region thing.

Bog-standard used to mean British or German standard (so quite good) and now it means adequate. Or so I heard/read.

I wouldn’t say it was equivalent to American usage of ‘fag’ because my understanding is that fag is a hideous insult (rather than a cigarette) whereas bugger isn’t. We do know it originally meant homosexual- it’s why big sideburns are called bugger’s grips.
