Stride of pride! Obviously! Or is that just an English thing?

I don't know what you're talking about....there are a plethora of synonyms to choose from, all of which I use abundantly and are received with joy. What a non-news piece.

Same. My mother didn't breastfeed beyond two weeks because she said she 'felt like a sow'.

I was never breast fed and my brother was, but for only two weeks. He's 6ft3 and I'm 5ft8, we're both strapping and strong with excellent immune systems (we spent much of our childhood encouraging eachother to eat dirt, lick the floor, the dog, gum from the bottom of a bus seat, etc) and above average…

I'm at work at my desk with a pot noodle and a ribena and just the THOUGHT of 'I hid under your porch because I love you' had me tearing up.

Thanks for the reassurance, I'm always really nice to customer service reps as that is one sucky (albeit entertaining) job and it's true that all it takes is one genuinely nice customer to turn a day around...however, I will double check my diet pepsi before returning it in future :-P

I could watch these videos for days interspersed only with nature videos of giant bugs fighting, eg 'Tarantula versus Black Wasp' or 'Iraqi Fire Ants versus Black Widow'.

How come nobody is talking about the implant? I'm on my second. They last three years and get injected into your arm, most women will have their periods become lighter or stop completely and you just don't need to worry about anything, including remembering to take a pill every day (the reason I got it to start with).…

I feel bad looking back and wondering how many times I have done this...

I can still see his point, tbh. He could have been a bit nicer about it, but I wouldn't call him wrong, just an asshole.

This. Like, all of my teen boyfriends.

If I couldn't afford to buy my own coffee, I would suggest a different activity. And I wouldn't presume that there's a fee for getting to know someone. Either way, I pay for myself.

Thank you! I HATE getting paid for.

But...why should he?
