See Facebook has kind of lessened this sort of behaviour because itās there if someone genuinely wishes to see it and no bother if you donāt.I remember my mum and dad being invited over to a friendās house one evening and when they got there it was all set up with a slide show of photos from the holiday theyād just been onI think it was somewhere fairly exotic - maybe a safari - but my parents complained about how boring it was for years after!!
Now of course people just put albums and albums on FB āour holiday part 1ā etc etc. I donāt look at them because I donāt care, but at least I donāt have to have them shoved in my face!
Remember when social media wasnt a big thing and having to dread people coming back from their holidays because of the need to show you all the photographs
Iāve spent my whole adult life going on as many holidays as I can afford. Holidays. Including about 9 months of my life over several trips in Oz and same again for the States. I couldnāt even add up European holidays and mini breaks. I see myself as a holidaymaker, not a traveller because Iām not wanky like that. Iād never put ātravellingā down as a hobby on a form.
The travelling bit I hate, itās the being there I like.
I donāt have a single photo of scenery with out me or a companion in it. I find scenery photos tit. My very sensible elderly friend used to buy wee guide books of places she liked, she reckons the photos in those are far superior to anything sheād take.

My UO is that people can kindly duck off condemning others for shopping in the likes of Penneys (or Primark for those of u not from Ireland 
) because of fast fashion. The majority of clothes I buy, even from these cheaper stores, I keep and rewear for years! Not everyone can afford to buy from expensive boutiques and to wear items of clothing only once!

Usually the type of people to shame shoppers of fast-fashion (Primark/Penneyās, Boohoo, ASOS etc) donāt give a tit about sustainability and the supply chain, they just want to look cool for ācaring about the environmentā and the āworkers rightsā. There are so many industries that are paying workers below minimum wages and with awful working conditions. But because itās not āfashionā people donāt care. They wonāt think twice about getting their nails done in a walk-in Vietnamese nail bar or getting their car washed at a Romanian car wash/valeter.My UO is that people can kindly duck off condemning others for shopping in the likes of Penneys (or Primark for those of u not from Ireland
Unpopular opinion, the concept of "dressing for your body" is NOT fatphobic.
Dressing for your body doesn't just apply to overweight people. It can apply to short/tall/big/small etc. Fit is a big deal when it comes to clothing.

1.I hate it when chocolate makers try to make you think you're still getting a lot for your money. "8 bars" of twirl when they always used to be sold as two together before they started being individually wrapped.

Tiktok is the next level of dumbing down society. What is with the videos and the stupid music? What is wrong with the original audio
90% of the videos on tiktok are mind numbing tit and the comments are even worse. I saw that comment 'first war, kinda nervous'
This 100%.
I know someone that babies their dog and as a result the dog is like a spoilt child. Unpredictable, unruly and prone to aggression. But no one will do anything when the dog bites because it's their baby.
Dogs are dogs, they need rules and boundeies. Too many dogs are fat as well because the owners over indulge them.
I'm seeing a lot of posts on my socials esp Instagram about people in the US and UK who may be suffering from anxiety because of the situation in the Ukraine. Aside from any humanitarian sympathy feelings and possible further increases in energy prices. WHY? It really will not affect you as far as I can tell unless you have friends and relatives over there and/or if Putin nukes us all. Why would it cause Charlene from Stoke anxiety?? (Prepared to admit if there is something I am not quite getting here)
I would imagine it's 24/7 doom and gloom of it all that causes anxiety. And you can't just 'turn the tv off' these days. With social media and the internet big stories seem to follow you at every turn.
i'm impressed if you manage to keep and rewear things from Primark for years. They usually fall apart.. I have a few t shirts I bought years ago in the mega hot summer of 2018 for holidays as they were super thin but 1 I've barely worn them and 2 they are all bobbly and not really fit for wearing out of the houseMy UO is that people can kindly duck off condemning others for shopping in the likes of Penneys (or Primark for those of u not from Ireland
ah I see. TBH I don't watch the news of any kind even on socials etc because of all this doom and gloom..so not really affecting me. I was never one for news etc and only looked into what I needed to know about the pandemic at the start especially. There will always be big stories I think there is more of an abundance of the snowflake mentality . where you have to put trigger warnings on Charles Dickens etc sort of answers my own question there.
If I'm honest I have enough to worry about in my own life without all this...

Tbh I'm worried about him pressing the red button. The man is insane in sure of it
I have things from Primark Iāve worn every week when working in the office. Their standard shaped blouses are about Ā£7 and man made fibres so donāt need ironed and they wash well. They do stay black jeans at Ā£15 guaranteed for 100 washes or something that I also get. Not sure if Iāve reached 100 washed yet but theyāre still going strong. I bought a black puffa jacket in their sale for Ā£5 years ago. I wore it a lot, my first teenager nicked it from me and she wore it loads and now my second teenager has nabbed it and wears it all the time. I do buy them their own clothes but that one has been a favourite for 3 of us!
I think it may be the uncertainty of the situation and the prospect of a World War is frightening. I just feel so very sad for the poor souls in Ukraine.
Even if they don't stay black (although my primark ones have outlasted more expensive brands) you can dye them with dylon pods.
Ā£5 pod does about 3 pairs.
I have black jeans from primark i have worn twice a week for about 5 years if not longer. I just dye them every couple of years haha
Because energy prices are over the roof and they'll increase even more. Same withgasoline and basic products. In Spain the electricity bill has increase 50% since last year, it's scary to think it'll become worse.
I agree
I would even go further and say fat people should not wear skimpy clothes. Skimpy and revealing clothes are for showing off a hot body. You wanna wear belly tops, hot pants an cut out dressess - then eat less and get down the gym, and earn the body to wear that stuff.
