Celebs etc in hospital posting from their with sad face. Or worse still showing pictures of their kids in hospital. Ronan Keating has just posted with intrusive pictures of his son.

This is actually quite funny, caring and doting about his son with Sharon, whilst his ex wife who he was cheating on whilst her mother was dying from cancer and the kids he had with her are all back in Ireland and barely ever see him. bleep.

I do hope the child is alright. But Ronan is nothing but a narcissistic piece of tit.

‘Influencers ‘ posting ads wearing clothes from Matalan / Next / Oasis etc saying how fabulous they are then the next min selling them labels still attached on their clothes selling insta pages 😡 Pascale Banks & Life with ivy coco fashionablepan are really bad for this Ivy coco woman sells them in shocking condition… you love them so much you take them straight off and sell them , except for the latter who seems to screw them up as mu as possible, roll them in a ditch and then pop them up for sale .

Also the bloody Matalan road show ads , where they send them food , clothes , bouncy castles and they run to greet them outsi pretending it’s all so fabulous, com on down to the woods , and the others mentioned above are always involved in this .
The recent Next press day was the same old tit show , it totally puts me off buying these brands as it subsides these freeloading idiots

Basically, the commercialisation of little kids by their 'parents'. It's disgusting, and morally reprehensible, in my humble opinion.

They obsession and one-up-man-ship in productivity communities.

It's to the point where if you listen to a podcast or a fiction audiobook while also doing something productive it's a bad thing. You need to only listen to informative content where you learn things instead. Otherwise you've wasted an opportunity by... having fun.

OMG yes! I don’t know why but they give me the creeps. And all those horny middle aged white women in the comments!

looks like it’s been taken down!
 
I genuinely don’t get why some people - and I’m talking celebs, influencers and just regular people I know - think that their lives are SO interesting to everyone else. Mate I couldn’t give a tit what you ordered from Next, what takeaway you had, how far you ran or what your kid had in their lunchbox. It’s so incredibly vain to think anyone cares. I know social media is for sharing, I’m as nosy as they come so I love it for knowing things that are happening. But when did it become about showing off every single little mundane thing you have, buy or do. Live your bloody life while you can without your phone constantly in the forefront!

I know, yesterday I have was literally on fumes and my petrol light was on, and I had to drive to the next town to pick my nephew up from preschool. I felt like the worst person in the world driving from petrol station to petrol station looking for fuel but I genuinely needed it!

I actually saw a picture on Facebook of a man filling up 7 Jerry cans at a petrol station near me though so didn't feel so bad!

I’ve just seen a FB market place post with someone selling cans of petrol for a ridiculous amount of money. I despair. I really do. Idiots like that are exactly why there is a bloody shortage! If everyone had carried on as normal yesterday we wouldn’t be in this mess! People 🙄😡🙄

Petrol stations really need to ban buying cans atm, otherwise it will be toilet roll saga all over again. Only difference is people could function without toilet roll, everyone needs petrol for the daily lives.

Slightly off topic but: do they?

I don’t drive and use trains or walk to get around. Even in an extreme scenario where petrol was rationed only for the emergency services, delivery vehicles, key workers and so on, I would be pretty fine.

I'd say a vast majority of people require fuel on a daily basis. For example I wouldn't be able to get to and from work without it. There's no direct public transport route of any mode so my commute would be over three hours each way and the service also isn't always available at the time I'd need to use it. Not everywhere has train access and buses also require fuel. I know a lot of people are in the same boat.

As an extra example outside of my own circumstances, imagine a situation where you have to drive your children to school then drive on to your place of work each day before driving back in time to collect them from an after school club. If you change the time aspect of any of these because you have to walk or use public transport instead, it makes the whole day unachievable time wise.

If you need to leave an hour earlier in order to catch the bus to work, who will take the children to school as it won't be open at that time? Who collects them if your journey home takes longer than it did and you aren't back in time for when the after school club shuts?

Where does extra money for public transport cost come from because I can tell you from personal experience that it's considerably cheaper to put fuel in your car than buy a train pass.

People need access to their cars.
