I've been to Australia where it was 40 degrees and I coped fine, it's a different heat. People who haven't been abroad just don't get it, they always ask "but what do you mean, how can you have a different heat" and i never know how to explain it. It's just drier, more tolerable, here it's humid, muggy and just horrible. Like 30 and 40 odd in Australia I was ok, but 20 odd here and I can't cope with it
Yes!! I used to live in Oz and people don’t believe me when I say I used to have trousers and a cardigan on in 30 odd degrees then I came back here and even the high teens has me searching for shade

I can't cope with heat so I was advised to go to Spain in April after collapsing all the time on a July holiday.
When I got there it was mainland Spain this time and not an Island (Majorca), as it had been in the July.
They were having a freak heatwave. I remember another holidaymaker saying something about 120 degrees.🤷‍♀️
I was absolutely fine, though. I couldn't understand why I wasn't collapsing when it was so hot.
Turned out it was dry heat and not the wet heat that I'd endured in Majorca which just sapped your strength.

Hot honey. Just no.
The addition of sugar to everything drives me mad, people eat enough sugar as it is we don't need to add it to savoury things too

I'd also say pesto, I like pesto but it'd such a strong flavour for me doesn't make sense to add it to a sandwich with things like parma ham, which is also a very salty flavour

Yes, Disney adults are so weird. Annual trips, photos with the characters, and those hairbands. See also Pokémon, my youngest child (at primary school) loves Pokémon, took him to a Pokémon shop to spend his Christmas money and he was the only child there - it was full of grown adults.
yes omg pokemon adults are weird. My 8-year-old watches these loud, obnoxious Americans. They go fucking Pokémon hunting in their area and say things like cross your fingers guys we hatch a ...

The movie ‘He’s Just Not That Into You’ (and the book too).

It’s just so victim-blamey and it didn’t age well. All the men were crap and blamed the women. Ben Aflek’s character’s proposal was also super anticlimactic because their relationship was already tainted and he only did it out of obligation.
Haha, me and my friend were fixated on how the whole premise was that women should realise that men clearly show you they don't give a shit; and yet every man in it then changed his mind, exactly as they told all the women they wouldn't. (I also don't like it when Justin Long is cast as a playboy character, he'll always be the nerd from Crossroads for me.)

Those track pants that are supposed to be for evening/going out. They’re hideous

Yeh, going from 10 degrees suddenly to 25 or vice versa is insane, seems to be happening more and more as well
It's only the last couple of years really I noticed it. It's literally been cold since last September then out the blue you get a red hot day 😂. Am going away Monday in the UK but got a clue what to pack now

Staying in hotels.

I'm travelling for work and as always I can't touch anything because it all looks disgusting and filthy. I've bleach-sprayed the bath but still can't step foot in it. Stains in and around the toilet. Bleached that too. The telly remote I've wiped with Dettol wipes but I'm still scared to touch it as even when I held it with a tissue it felt slick with germs. Can't wait to get back to my own home.

My family were laughing at me for taking my own towels, toilet roll, and pillowcase to survive this pestilence. This one is a 4-star hotel. Urgh.
I always wear flip flops in the shower.

I don't think it's the bleach smell itself i.e. chlorine, but exposure to bleach while cleaning seems to have this airway clearing effect that makes breathing in feel fresher and more intense for a few minutes after using the bleach. Yeah that'll be the bleach stripping layers off your lungs, guys. :ROFLMAO:

Washing dishes in bleach is just deranged and very dangerous.
I hope this isn’t too forward but I think I love you 😆 seriously though I’ve been made to feel like I’m weird and dirty for hating the smell of bleach for a long time

With HA i think youre supposed to put it on the skin when it's still a bit wet after cleansing and seal it with a moisturiser.

I don't like HA though as I'm pretty sure it breaks me out 😅
HA also breaks me out - I always end up with (even more) zits than usual when I've tried it.
