I have heard this before (although wouldn’t exactly recomnend it as a tactic!) I think it may actually have been on a Jez thread where someone told a story that she had been mugged at a cash point but had had such a bad day, she just wheeled around and yelled “are you fucking kidding me?!” and he ran off. Something to…

I started reading last night and had to stop because I was home alone and noooope! It’s terrible but I’m saving all these for Monday morning when I’m at work and have *ahem* nothing better to do so I can fully immerse!

Yes! Look at me never really did it for me. Sorcia McNasty’s is still with me some 3 years later

Since you asked... :)

All of this. The joke was awful and completely tone deaf but I really can’t think of a way he could have responded that would be better than what he did. I’m trying really hard not to give the guy a free pass because I like him but it really seems like he has more than made up for it

To be fair, and not to ruin the effect of the story, I do get sleep hallucinations very regularly. I think the voice terrified me because I never get auditory hallucinations and it’s normally always when i wake up in the night as opposed to when I’m falling asleep.

1) omg yessssss! It’s the most wonderful time of the year!

Conflicted. Obviously he built an incredible legacy, albeit one that’s pretty questionable. That said, I’ve never heard any terrible things about the man himself. I haven’t heard (in recent times) any of the women who lived at the mansion accuse him of anything. Anyone aware of anything I’m not?

Well that was my question. I’m short, but not short enough to fit in the top corner of a mattress. If I ever work it out, I’ll let you know

This is such a thing. My sister is ostensibly an adult for 360 days of the year but for the ~1 week we spend together over the course of the year, she just regresses. Last time I saw her culminated in her grabbing me at the throat over an argument because she didn’t want to have to divide our shared bed down the…

But did you have the classic CD ROM game, Sabrina: Brat Attack? I might actually go and see if it can still be downloaded somewhere. There definitely levels that adult me could boss 12 year old me at now

So, at first, I thought “absolutely fucking not” but I actually didn’t hate Riverdale and as long as it doesn’t try to be anything like the original show then maybe it might be ok?

I would, and do, watch it now. Rewatching Sabrina episodes on YouTube has got me through some shitty days. It’s a truly pure kind of nostalgia

It’s been an issue among young gang members for years, although it’s definitely getting worse. They are now also doing things like adding boiling sugar to the mixtures so that it sticks to the skin and can’t be washed away. I’ve always thought it takes a far more disturbed mind to try to disfigure someone like that…

You sound like you need a drink, mate

It was not until this article that I realised I’ve been pronouncing his name wrong in my head for years. For some reason my brain always skipped the middle syllable and just read Du-mahl. Given that I will probably never see his name in a gossip column again after today, this feels like a tragic waste of information

Amen. If I had a pound for every time I’ve dated a guy who turned into a monster-cheating-wanker because he suddenly got hot in his mid 20s, I’d have...about enough for a Starbucks.

Love island actually swept the nation this year - massive audiences. I actually highly recommend it as reality tv that doesn’t make you want to burn everything to the ground.

I’m just over here advocating for the double barrel! I’m already double barrelled and my partner is indian Muslim with a name that identifies him as such. We’ve had this chat as neither of us wants to feel erased (im also not changing my name). We’ve compromised on “Arabicfirstname Caucasianmiddlename…

This film has been my unashamed favourite romcom since the day I saw it (probably a couple of years after it came out - I was 7 when it hit cinemas). As a kid it blew my tiny mind that Julia Roberts could be a leading lady and not win the guy. As an adult, I can watch it with a full understanding of what a fucking…
