I wish it wasn’t too early for this as a thread title

Once we know the corner I am going in with a broom…and some gold spray.

Sending people to the dark corner of the internet, is the truth now considered a black hole then?

When did we actually get to a state where the truth can’t be told as it’ll hurt someone’s feelings? Utter madness isn’t it?

Gold? On a triiiiiiifle?

If only my family were that funny I'd have a six pack from laughing so much.
I bet Old Chief takes a dim view "first you have traaaazzzers on a bird, then you've got them putting gold on a trifle. It's not on".

Everyone wants to exists in their own little echo chamber these days. Depressing.

Jack’s dad laughing at the trifle like: ‘That is what you call comedy gold

I hope all the laughter from the Shitty Bungalow at the gold spray doesn't alert Evil Landlady to the presence of guests. I can't imagine her chuckling along with trifle bantz. If anything it might enrage her "you're sitting here eating gold fucking trifle in my fucking gaff when you owe me rent? Do I look like a mug to you?" *trifle and bowl hit the wall with a splat and a crash*

I’ve actually had a proper laugh out loud moment at this Jenny
Honestly, imagine if you were the landlady? She must just be sitting in her house every day looking at her bank account sans rent money, then at Jack’s Twitter and thinking WTF!!

This don't tell the truth, because the truth hurts.

Also another bug bear of mine is everyone bigging everyone up for literally winning the booby prize.
Today I did something amazing!
I got up, did the usual everyday shit and now I am going to bed.

Everyone" sooo proud of you"

I get that some people do have mental health issues and things are a struggle, but it just seems like we have to treat everyone like a sensitive child these days else we are apparently being horrid.

I sometimes wonder how these people cope with real life problems! I have lost a patent, dealt with personal things that have been horrid( and that not many people in my real life know about) yet I don't expect to be praised for every little task I undertake and if someone tells me I am shit at something I take it and work on making myself better.

Why does everything have to be haunted? Haunted coat rack, haunted bird app...
Haunted trifle...

Maybe Jack's dad is nicer than mine, but if I sprayed a trifle gold, my dad would definitely be laughing at me, in a "why do I have such a fool for a daughter" kind of way...

Out of interest, can anyone point me to the value range gold spray? I've checked Smart Price but I'm drawing a blank. Surely the little urchin chef isn't using premium products? I suppose it could have been a yellow sticker or a gift from a mate but I do need to know where it fits in the £20 p/w budget.
