Wow, those countries? I guess as someone from a country (New Zealand) that many SAFs and Zimbabweans emigrate to/escape for a safer life (as one parent explained why they moved in the 90s "I was sick of having to hold on to my daughter's hand when in Jo'berg so she wasn't abducted" I'm kinda terrified of it).

To me, Taylor Swift is the one sign of 90s revival fashion namely crop-tops. (Lorde does do it too but tends to hide it under boxy jackets). She can pull it off, it just makes me feel old.

I know that one of Little Town had a front cutout dress that showed underwear, but was it just me or did Grande's super short skirt and sashaying feel kinda inappropriate given the context?

That said: girl got a set of pipes. Didn't know that.

I love that Geek Love is finally getting its due.
One thing that should be mentioned between this and American Freak Show has to be Carnivale.

My friends got around this by having THREE weddings. UK, Mexico, India. The groom is either lucky or very unlucky that there are kinda three anniversary dates :)

Also an extra: cross-nation marriages. When the couple aren't the same nationality, it's going to be a destination wedding for someone. The best way to solve that? Multiple weddings. My Indian and Mexican friends were both PhD students in the UK so had a little wedding here (easiest visa process and good for student…

Similar childhood story. I get a bit of ribbing as an adult for not hugging people hello that I haven't seen for ages (though that's also compounded by being confused when they're European as to whether it'll be a hug, one, two, or three kisses). I'm slowly getting better at hugging at my own pace.

My extended family are mouth kissers (it's their tradition). It was terrifying as a young girl to know that there was going to be a queue of them every time we visited, often relatively I barely knew and some I was a little afraid of. "Go kiss your aunties and uncles hello" was a phrase I hated.

The ethnicity of my dad's family means that the enforced interaction was kissing on the lips. For lots of people. In a visit to them (maybe once every few months) this could happen up to 20 times to say hello and leave at the end. As the eldest child I often had to lead the way including kissing people I'd barely met…

I am a straight woman, but my god Geena Davis is gorgeous. (And of course a wonderful and vocal feminist).

That's pretty unusual for NZ: most have been taught something and were more won't cook and clean rather than can't. (Admittedly, I struggled with washing machines at uni since my family had an old fashioned wringer machine so that my mum could use water from the roof!). I really hope said town wasn't my hometown…

I was an RA at my uni, and we deliberately had monthly flat inspections to keep the all boy (and generally more grimy) flats in line: once a month was enough to make a difference and for flats to actually try to do (those that weren't up to par then got one more try before potentially getting a cleaner in).

Make it about OKC/Match more traditional dating sites and you're all good.

Can I say as someone raised on British TV, the name of the new cast member born in the 90s reminds me of another very similarly named person from a bit of a time ago...

No. It's the equivalent of working in a building that has a passcode and ID card entry system, assuming you're safe to leave your laptop at your office, and then finding that someone managed to break in and steal all your stuff since you were never told that the fire exit could be opened from the outside.

You can change the settings but the point is that you have to go out of your way to find out about them (and most people won't).

Yep. I was in my first year of uni when one student in my class were diagnosed as having TB. Healthy and everything. We all had to get tested just in case. (Given that first year students are more liable to get things like mono anyway and we were a design dept so were around each other in a small room five days a…

But given how there are still female celebs saying they aren't feminists since they love men (thank goodness Taylor Swift has been hanging around Lorde and Lena Dunham and has changed her stance), she's covering a 101 that's still fairly misunderstood

This like saying that you should never visit a place where there are pickpockets or own anything of value in your house where there's the remote chance of being robbed. What they're doing isn't illegal, and they have every expectation of privacy (as some people have mentioned, some of the pictures had been deleted…

I upgraded to iOS8. After waiting for ages I ripped through the setup settings so I could play with the new syste. In my haste, I went for the default Apple option of using my Apple password as my passcode password as they just said, "you can set another password, it can be the same as your Apple acct". Only…
