I agree with others. Your account of the makeover is very negative but the look is fantastic - I don’t know about ‘sickening pink’ for the lip gloss but it looks very natural and that eye shadow palette is lovely and subtle. The foundation is okay around your forehead but I agree that around the cheeks and outer jaw…

Oh I don’t think Cats are exclusively selfish in the ‘I NEVER give a shit’ sort of way, I just think generally they ignore most goings on unless it directly affects them, interests them or otherwise piques their curiosity. As a sufferer of anxiety and panic attacks, I once had a panic attack and was curled up at the…

I’m totally a Cat person too but all cat people KNOW that cats are (generally) inherently selfish and will only get involved in a situation when they have something to gain (like defending their territory from an invading dog/cat/fox/etc). I understand and accept this about my Cat. I KNOW he only deters the birds that…

Reusing them for the purposes for which they were created is probably a no-no but it would be good if they could be recycled but I suspect melting them down uses more energy and Carbon emissions than the waste unforts.

Yeah massages are awesome! I’m having Physio after a car accident and basically my sessions are composed of ‘Here, do this exercise at home, but for now let’s loosen those muscles and mobilise that spine’ - shoulder massage on the insurance company? Don’t mind if I do...

I’m taking Sertraline for my Anxiety and depression and the dreams are incredible. The most vivid movie-quality type dreams ever. The first antidepressant I was on gave me horrific nightmares. I have to say the dreams are one of the up sides to being on this medication for me.

My favourite part of that story is where he tells the server that he ‘made her keep her promise’ like he knows she doesn’t want to be there but is holding her to a 5 year old verbal contract.... That’s just general dumbassery right there. He might be ‘spectrum’ - some would argue that ALL humans inhabit a position…

LOL Yeah we totally got conned by that scheme - we said we were in the market for a Platinum Engagement ring (I’m allergic to Gold - it sends my Eczema crazy - my skin cracks and bleeds if I wear gold for any period of time - even white gold - my dermatologist reckons its an acute sensitivity to the nickel content in…

My Fiance was engaged before he met me, but their relationship was a bit shaky and his Fiancee decided to end things when they returned from an expensive holiday (leaving him in shitloads of debt). Fast forward 6 months and he meets me, we get together, enjoy 3 years of non-co-habiting relationship, then we buy a…

Am I the only one getting tired of hearing ‘Muslim This’ and ‘Hijab That’ and ‘I’m a Muslim and I’ve been discriminated against’? Racial and sexual discrimination happens across the board, perpetrated BY most people ON most people. Context and situation are the only things that change. Try being a White European woman…

Yes - this is a cause of concern. The ‘Harry the Heir’ plotline in the books is so tedious I think I skipped every mention of it in ADWD so it stands to reason that in trimming down the cast and concurrent plot lines, they would use Sansa in a different way, but I really REALLY disagree with the whole Sansa/Ramsey…

Yeah but Roz wasn’t in the books so she was expendable. Sansa? Not so much.

As a book reader, I’ve given up trying to work out what the fuck is going on here now. It is interesting that Sansa has a more central part, but this whole angle is a total curve ball compared to the (slowly moving) plot in the Vale of Arryn so anything could happen. Honestly, I loathe this Ramsey/Sansa pairing. It’s…

ARGH. Don’t get me started on this. As Brits, we’re generally more reserved than our friends in the US and this American over-familiarisation culture has to stop. It drives me potty because EVERY SINGLE TIME I’ve given a name in Starbucks they mangle it. As a woman with the name Alexandra (the feminine form of…

This is not so much a story about a knockoff wedding dress as a bridesmaid gown I bought on Ebay to wear to a formal Black&White ball (as a larger woman I bought black ofc). The pictures showed a drape-y waist and full skirt. It was £30 from China. I KNEW I wasn’t going to get what was in the picture. Not at all. As a…

Yep - I’m the same. I believe it is because what we are ACTUALLY allergic to is an enzyme that become denatured (read:changed) when you cook it. So it’s possible to be allergic to either the cooked version or the raw, but because they are different, it makes total sense that you can be allergic to one of the two.

I, too, have an allergy to Raw Tomatoes. I’ve come to the conclusion that what I’m ACTUALLY allergic to is an enzyme in the Tomato that become denatured when you cook the shit out of it. If I eat raw Tomato my throat closes up and I retch uncontrollably. Cooked Tomato? Totally fine. Sun dried tomatoes are borderline -…

For a woman who would fall down a drain if she turned sideways this is NOT a flattering look on her. It makes her blend into the background. Her figure looks square and her stance is slightly frumpy.

This picture made me LOL. Literally. I hadn't thought of this solution to Cat craziness before. I need to buy one of these laundry baskets Stat.

I can contribute to this by proxy. When I first met my now-Fiancé he was just out of a previous long term relationship which had been on the decline for a long time and in a last ditch attempt to save their relationship they booked a ridiculously expensive holiday on which he proposed. She ditched him the minute they…
