Hello
I'm posting for the first time but I've been reading this thread for a while. I used to like Emma very much and look forward to her videos, until she changed, and became so patronizing and insincere claiming to care about the environment while continuing to shop excessively, constantly ordering online, consuming countless paint sample cans before making her mind, destroying so many cool parts in their new house (the beautiful wooden floors and other cool 60s touches, the great modern kitchen they either threw away or wrapped in plastic, and so on). I can't bear her superior airs, how she sloooowly explains things that most people have know for ages, and how she snaps at her viewers and followers when they don't write what she wants to hear, even when they are very polite and mean well. She looks down on people. She hates colours with a passion and that's ok, it's her taste, but she does it in such condescending way, as if colours were tasteless and basically a sin. She's turned into such a snob.
Also I find it quite impolite that she often shows up unkept in her videos, with awful hair and split ends for months, her nail polished chipped or largely showing the bed of the nail, dog hairs on her clothes and hugely oversized clothes that drown her completely and so unflattering. I was taught that when you meet people, even your friends, at home or elsewhere, it is polite to present yourself clean, nice and put together! But she doesn't seem to care. Even though it's her job.
Today I read an article in the Daily Mail about flight assistants who explained that the worst travellers are NOT the parents with a crying or noisy baby but the OTHER passengers who repeatedly complain about the parents and babies during a flight! That reminded me of a post by Emma Hill on her blog, about a "horrible" flight she experienced because of awful parents and their baby, and her rant about how she HATES to travel around children and their parents, and basically hates them. I hope she read the Daily Mail and finds out that SHE is the one classified as one of the worst travellers!
I know it's unpleasant when children cry and are noisy on a flight, and some parents can be annoying. But babies can't help it if they feel tired or need to be changed in a plane (to Emma's horror). And parents usually feel so embarrassed and helpless when it happens.
