Is it ok if you went to an RG uni but had to drop out because you spent too many nights drinking in the SU and shagging after and barely made it to any classes? Asking for a dfriend.

By “shagging” do you mean “TTC?”

Sorry, but I don’t speak large povvo *tinkly laugh*

 

[50degreesnorth]

I didn’t go to a RG, but I still made captain of the women’s team and was “well known” on campus.

Lads, I was a shagger and my team? The drinking team. This revelation would not go down so well over there.
But I feel there are more kindred spirits here.

 

[MediumLoad]

Can't sleep, which of these shall I delve into?

- if you are 100kgs or over, how did you get there?
- to think most men are filthy losers
- £1k a month to invest

Hey! I've had a shower earlier!

 

[hmmm_no]

Hey! I've had a shower earlier!

But are you a loser?

 

[MediumLoad]

But are you a loser?

Well, I don't earn six figures, am not teeny tiny and don't live semi-rural in a picturesque village free of poor people so, yes.

I can't even.....what goes through their minds to worry about something like this?

My friend at work messaged me something the other day and I replied with “No.” and he was really worried that he’d upset me because it seemed a bit abrupt. But sometimes he replies to me with a which drives me mad too because that seems abrupt as well!

 

[YR80]

I’d make all of the teeny tiny MNetters weep, wail and shudder this morning as I’ve had cake for my breakfast AND I’ve just got the suitcase down from the loft ready to pack for my DAllInclusive holiday later this week

But that’s literally what University is for!

My teen dd freaks out when I reply to WhatsApp on my laptop because it doesn't autocorrect or capitalise for me. So apparently it reads like I've been abducted and am sending coded messages for help. You can't win.

 

[Iamthebosun]

I would reply but your question mark has me shaking and sobbing.

Good to see BIWI is still busy hunting down the banana munchers, without the bootcamps to keep her occupied.

You mean she hasn’t gone NC with you yet? Try harder OP!

Are they all getting unnecessarily angry about people decorating their houses for autumn yet?

Ooooh can we place bets on the order of posts on that?

I'll go

Plastic tat
Americans
Consumerism
When I was a child
End of the world/climate change
Americans again
Landfill
My children are happy just looking a a leaf
I hate autumn
Americans again
I used to love autumn until my husband slipped on leaves and died, think before you post triggering content
I've never been married and now I'm crying
Americans, this time they'll be large ones and it'll include something about hot chocolate
I thought there was a cost of living crisis

Ooh yes, and add in a sneery comment about pumpkin spice/sugar bomb lattes

 

[Serene Serena]

Ddementia?

Diabetes, an under active thyroid and sepsis, too.

 

[girlinbrum]

I watch a lot of hospital dramas and soon as anyone says sepsis, makes me think of MN.

I would really recommend The Pitt - i saw a few episodes whilst on a flight, its not available in UK at the moment, but when it is, do watch it.

There’s a woman asking if she should mention back to school (private - relevant as weightloss jabs are ££) weightloss.

She‘s claiming that they have gone from a size 20 to a size 10. I know private school holidays re longer than state ones but even so losing 7 stone ish in 8 weeks is not likely

Maybe she had a limb removed?
