What the fuck is their obsession with dahl lately? Even the word makes me cringe.

"You could whip up some dahl for pennies"
"I'm just having some dahl for lunch"
*I'm making a lovely dahl for dinner"

Then some poster was complaining about their kids being picky eaters and straight away someone suggested giving them some chicken nuggets and some dahl. FFS.

I hope they all choke on their fucking dahl.

I have noticed this, or the usual.. just bulk it up with lentils.

Bolognaise? Bulk it up
Cottage pie- bulk it up.

Fuck off.

That Mo Farah thread is still going as they try to find holes in his story whilst disguising their racism, really want to say to them LET IT GO, it has nothing to do with them, makes no difference to their lives, why are they spending so much time arguing about it. Spend that time on their cycling husbands who are always seemingly having affairs.

This may sound bad but did u ever notice their children always have autism? And usually it has nothing to do with the story whatsoever.... Saw a thread the other day "my son with autism nearly drowned" and when I clicked into it, a mother was beside the water dressing her daughter, turned her back for 2 seconds and when she turned around her friend was lifting her son out of the water. What had his autism got to do with it?

Some people with Autism have an obsession with water.

Yes, I know what you mean about everyone's child appearing to have Autism.

But like she never mentioned that he had an obsession with water, it was a really simple accident that could've happened any child, and her friend grabbed him almost immediately. Just seemed a needless point to make to me. Like the whole thread was

2nd post in- is he on the spectrum?

they try to brush off every shitty behaviour on having autism which is a shit thing to do.

The armchair diagnoses that happen on that site are something to behold.

You would wonder why people have to train for years in various specialties, and why people have to wait for appointments for themselves or their children to see those specialists when all they need to do really is post on there... #sarcasm

Someone should really answer one of the five hundred 'what makes a person classy/what sort of things do middle class people do' with 'eat beef mince without adding any additional lentils'. Watch them explode.

Oh lordy. There's a thread in chat about fishy fannies. One woman reckons she can smell every woman's fanny within her office. Another woman got offended because her mate referred to her own fanny as "onion flaps".

From that thread... If I am in work I will smell at least one or two smelly vaginas, not always period related either.

Weirdo.

There was one a few years ago that said hers smelt like rotting meat and could smell it even after she'd used the loo and people telling the OP that it was normal .

I can think of lots of reasons. Autistic kids are just inherently more vulnerable than neurotypical kids, especially when they’re toddlers or preschoolers. They can have next to no danger awareness, or issues with communication/speech delays that mean they can’t or won’t cry out for help.

For example, my son as a toddler locked himself in the bathroom when he was about two and a half and didn’t shout, cry or bang on the door. He just stayed there quietly in the dark until I realised he was AWOL.

The smelly vagina thread has been deleted, suprised it took so long, was one of the weirdest things I've ever read. Considering the hot weather, the vagina sniffer will need to stay at home today.

The hysteria was off the scale. I’ve never seen anything like it.
It was unbelievable. There was a long ongoing thread where they were devouring daily COVID stats. Ended up with constant squabbling about who understood the numbers best. It was pretty much we are all going to die and the rats will have to bury the bodies. Anything remotely positive was slapped down as you don't get statistics.
