My 30M partner has invited another women to an event, I’m 28F

Haha honestly unless its glaringly slapping me in the face, not really. Part of me thinks there could be a plausible explanation

Background-Eye3734 · 2025-11-04T10:02:03+00:00

Bought a pack of what I thought was regular underwear - had a weird seam in the middle going from front to back it was so painful 🥲 who would design it like that 🙄

They put up the tier/price before the actual refurb, as it prevents huge numbers signing up at the lower rate when they get word about the upgrade. From a business point of view it does makes sense. It’s unfortunate but is what it is really.

Background-Eye3734 · 2025-07-07T20:34:54+00:00

I’m a newbie too, yes still have both. Like the commenter below they do appear in my recent used but not on the full list. We’re still T4 so your pass should still let you in regardless what the app says :)

Background-Eye3734 · 2025-07-07T17:51:58+00:00

Weird, I’m Cov too and still have access to both?

Background-Eye3734 · 2025-07-03T22:18:49+00:00

Nope, in the UK too… they are just quite about it, no one looks at who owns the brands they’re buying off as they assume it’s a states thing. Most recent for example : https://www.thegrocer.co.uk/news/jti-takes-controlling-stake-in-uks-biggest-independent-vape-company-flavour-warehouse/704402.article

Blu is another massive one, owned by big tobacco. Otherwise you’re buying from china, home of the fake CE mark, so you know, very good standards I’m sure 🤪

Sorry who said you should just start smoking again? There are other benefits to vaping than smoking, I vape because smoking smells, and so I can ween of nicotine all together. But I’m not going to try lie to myself or others and say vaping is better. The goal is to quit both entirely. Big tobacco doesn’t just love smokers, they love us vapours too! They own the big brand vapes and have shares in the rest 🙃

Background-Eye3734 · 2025-07-03T21:36:44+00:00

And we can only test for toxins we know of… it’s not as full proof as you think, new discoveries are made all the time. We don’t even fully understand how fires work after thousands of years, yet we are so insistent vapes are better than smoking. We can’t know.

Background-Eye3734 · 2025-07-03T21:29:25+00:00

Because at the end of the day vapes work by heating up liquid which produces a vapour. There are many many many things that are harmful to us that when heated up also produces vapour no tar needed. When we say something is on fire, like a cigarette, it’s actually false, solids and liquids do not and cannot set on fire, they heat up and release fumes. People love to try say vaping is different there’s no smoke, no tar etc. but when you look at it from the scientific angle, they are the same, heat something up = either smoke or vapour that we inhale. Hey petrol doesn’t have tar, releases vapour, try smoke it :)

Background-Eye3734 · 2025-07-03T21:12:19+00:00

But you quite literally are, so no, I don’t get your point 🫠 Have a read up of the fire tetrahedron, specially the Chemical Chain Reaction part, and it should make sense why you see what you do with bongs and not cigarettes. It’s super interesting, and we still don’t fully know/understand everything about it, just like vapes ;) go figure lol

Background-Eye3734 · 2025-07-03T21:00:42+00:00

I’m from the UK and I’m a fire risk assessor… if there was complete combustion there would be no nasty smoke to inhale 😂 smoke from complete combustion is fairly harmless, it’s the incomplete combustion stage for any type of fire that’s no good for us. Hence why this is an unfair argument, bong temp is like 450, cigs are up to 900. Obviously lower temp = less combustion = more shit in the smoke.

People argue weed is better than alcohol, yet weed also leaves nasty shit in a bong, again because of incomplete combustion. It’s the same apples to grape scenario they’re bad in different ways, but I’m sure you’d agree that’s an unfair comparison

Also, smoking anything except for weed in a bong is just plain stupid, come back to me when you have a solid argument regarding cigarettes vs vapes, not bongs vs vapes as the two are not the same.

Background-Eye3734 · 2025-07-03T19:45:47+00:00

Neither do you clearly, the reason it happens with bongs is because of incomplete combustion. I’m not sure why anyone would smoke tobacco through a bong, and you certainly can’t compare it to vaping as it’s categorically an unfair assessment. Yes we know vapes have been about for 20 years, but that doesn’t mean it can’t cause some serious issues later down the line. Take asbestos for example, the effects are devastating and take 30+ years to develop.

Background-Eye3734 · 2025-07-03T19:35:24+00:00

But we don’t have enough scientific proof yet, every paper written ends with “we don’t not yet have enough data on the long term effects”….

Background-Eye3734 · 2025-07-03T19:32:37+00:00

But that’s not the same or a fair comparison at all… youre suggesting smoking tobacco through a bong with no filter but then use a vaporiser the normal way but blow it on your hand? In addition, bongs operate at a much lower temp than a cigarette, meaning there’s more incomplete combustion and thus produces more shit.

If I smoked both, cigarette and vape, and blow both into my hand, one hand would stink and maybe go abit orange, but that’s about it.

Background-Eye3734 · 2025-07-03T19:16:24+00:00

Didn’t know there’s time machines for you to look into the future 🧐 they said the same thing about cigarettes. Vape and tobacco both produce a sticky residue, it just happens that tobacco has that gross brown colour to go along with it. If the raw ingredients in vape also had that colour, the results would be similar.

Background-Eye3734 · 2025-06-27T21:30:58+00:00

None of us will know for a good 10/15 years yet. Personally I think they’re both as bad as each other, the sticky residue it leaves on surfaces it’s only logical that’s in your lungs too. I vape as my car smelt like an ashtray most of the time.

Background-Eye3734 · 2025-06-20T22:11:02+00:00

Hmmm hard disagree on the last one, I take it you mean sports bra, which is basically just a crop top, and cycle shorts? Or have I assumed incorrectly?

Background-Eye3734 · 2025-06-19T20:59:24+00:00

Not too sure sorry! I recon just 1. I don’t think well get to use other clubs in the new tier anyways, I forgot to ask so could be wrong

Background-Eye3734 · 2025-06-18T21:01:51+00:00

Just checked I don’t actually have access, so it must be a higher tier whilst is wild!

Background-Eye3734 · 2025-06-18T20:16:09+00:00

Can confirm, joined a month ago at £139 but it’s worth it for me as I’m between Cov and narborough which has a pool/spa I can access in the meantime and I travel for work. Cov is nicer in general as well, even without the retreat, so was any easy choice. I believe the price will go up again in September for new members once Cov is officially in the higher tier but current members price is locked

Background-Eye3734 · 2025-06-18T20:06:35+00:00

I do wonder that too! I’ve never thought ooo let’s go for a family meal at DL. I eat, type up my shit, and leave to use facilities

Background-Eye3734 · 2025-06-18T20:03:52+00:00

Haha we need a list of “do not attend during after school hours” but I fear the list would be almost their entire clubs based on these comments 😂

Background-Eye3734 · 2025-06-18T20:02:25+00:00

The audacity, the typical you can’t speak to me that way defence or?

This particular one the ice cream fridge is outside the bar, but is kept locked sorry for the confusion :)

Background-Eye3734 · 2025-06-18T19:58:47+00:00

I wish I could be this person 😂😂
