My boyfriend at the time went and queued up overnight to sign the book. I couldn't decide whether it was lovely that he was so moved by the death of a stranger to give up a night's sleep, or just a bit odd.I couldn't believe it.
Thousands of wet Jessie's in tears, queuing up to sign a condolence book. Why??
Best forgotten about![]()
That's definitely one for the "Ick" thread!My boyfriend at the time went and queued up overnight to sign the book. I couldn't decide whether it was lovely that he was so moved by the death of a stranger to give up a night's sleep, or just a bit odd.
After some consideration I decided it was the latter, and dumped him pronto![]()
Woman or man is enough. We don't need to complicate things.Woman or trans woman is enough. We don't need to complicate things.
Was this Emma, Brummymummyof2 ? this is exactly how she behaves, stupid cow ! She also vlogs it so everyone can see.This reminds me of when I brought my son to Disney a few years ago. A grown woman was queuing with her autograph book to meet characters (bizarre in itself) out comes Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse and she starts jumping up and down and practically trampled on small kids to get to them. She lunges at them for a hug, while her hapless partner takes pictures on his phone. It was pathetic and hilarious in equal measure. It pops into my head every now and then and makes me laugh

I think I saw that, didn't one woman jump out of a window to escape.What's this?
Exactly, people so quick to jump in the trend of slavery and then swan of to Dubai built on the backs of modern slaves. All you have to do there is open your eyes and see the African and Asian servants kept against their wills.
I watched a documentary on African women forced into slavery there and it's horrifying
My vocab gripe is people using lend instead of borrow. Can I lend your pen. No you borrow it, I lend it. I work with 13-18 year-olds and have heard it so often.What about people from Yorkshire (and maybe other places? I’m not sure) who use ‘were’ instead of ‘was’? For some reason that doesn’t bother me, but like you I also get bothered by ‘was’ in place of ‘were’![]()
Yes.My vocab gripe is people using lend instead of borrow. Can I lend your pen. No you borrow it, I lend it. I work with 13-18 year-olds and have heard it so often.
The thing that annoys me is when you've bought something, say a swimming costume but then have swimming costumes advertised to you for the next 2 weeks. Like I've bought one duck off now, show me something new. If they're gonna stalk you to create the adverts, they should know when you've made the purchase and then stop them.My unpopular opinion is that I actually like the targeted pop up adverts on here. I've just spotted a nice pair of sparkly clogsSomeone (my daughter probably) has been on this laptop and looking for shoes with a shine, I think. I don't buy EVERYTHING that pops up in an ad, I'm not THAT gullible...or am I?

Oh yes, this is irritating. How many swimming costumes do advertisers think we might need at once?The thing that annoys me is when you've bought something, say a swimming costume but then have swimming costumes advertised to you for the next 2 weeks.

Americans who say “I’ll do a cappuccino” instead of “could I have…”Yes.
" Can I get " instead of " Could I have" gets right up my hooter too
Oh I agree. I’ve bought the shoes, now show me some dresses to wear them withThe thing that annoys me is when you've bought something, say a swimming costume but then have swimming costumes advertised to you for the next 2 weeks.

It’s worse when you like one advertised a fortnight later more when you can’t return the one you bought.Oh yes, this is irritating. How many swimming costumes do advertisers think we might need at once?
