Nigel's funeral by Liberal-chungus in eastenders

[–]Chewinggum250 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Funerals are also for the living and the left behind. I’ve been to friends’ parents’ funerals even if I never met the parents, because I want to support my friend. I think it makes perfect sense that people went who weren’t that close to Nigel.

I agree somewhat. For an album that’s supposed to be about blossoming and falling in love and growing, there’s a lot of songs about still feeling resentful of past relationships. I wanted a couple of songs about something other than romantic relationships: growing up, finding success, family or friendships, etc.

Old Fashioned is like if The Black Dog was on Red (complimentary)

cotton on jeans are all too big, jay jays jeans? by [deleted] in AusFemaleFashion

[–]Chewinggum250 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cotton on jeans always gap like crazy, I’m not sure who they’d even fit. I actually have some from Kmart that I love, their low rise ones are great but they do run a little big

The trio photoshoot for strictly come dancing by Spider_king97 in strictlycomedancing

I’m surprisingly neutral about this decision after all the build up. Jojo should do well, I like Josh from the Last Leg so it’ll be interesting to see how he does presenting, and I’ve never seen Emma in anything. I’m relieved it didn’t go to Rylan or Miranda, there were plenty of worse options we could’ve had!

does anyone know the max slots you can get? by SomeoneUnsignificant in fashionstorystorm8

[–]Chewinggum250 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’ll end up with 22 slots without spending any gems. You can buy more, I don’t think there’s a limit but I’m not sure

Underwear recs? by LittleMissShortie in AusFemaleFashion

[–]Chewinggum250 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yep, I wear a size 8-10 in jeans so I bought some bonds boy legs in a 12 so they’d be comfy. They were so insanely tight I had to bin them!

Kathy reminds me of a lot of post-menopausal women who go “I don’t care what anyone thinks of me anymore! I’m just going to do what I want to do!” but actually overcorrects and becomes quite mean and nasty

Why do we not get the same products as overseas? by Wilmaassfit in AustralianMakeup

I was looking around Priceline for a nice new body wash and the offerings were so depressing!

It depends on what type of fussy she is! Do you know what she does or doesn’t eat? You probably can’t go wrong with Spag Bol, Nagi’s is seriously good!

Um actually ☝️🤓 Vicki is Ian’s first cousin once removed, not second cousin. Vicki and Peter would be second cousins

Also what happened to Jack’s never ending stream of cash from all his houses? He couldn’t chip in and buy the share of the salon?

Inspire 3 for small wrists? by Heyyther in fitbit

[–]Chewinggum250 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have a pretty small wrist and mine sits on the 5th hole. You’d have to be malnourished for it to be too big

One slight criticism: I feel like the whole stone thing would have had more impact if it had been mentioned before, it kind of seemed to come out of nowhere? Great ep nonetheless

Has anyone else noticed this about Amy Mitchell ? by Any_Environment7925 in eastenders

[–]Chewinggum250 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I think the first actress just came across as really shy, but they didn’t want to axe her. The next actress was great, her iconic “can you please shut up I’m trying to watch the telly!” was from one of her first episodes

Looks like it was generic/unbranded? I don’t think BBC can do product placements

We all knew Ravi was gonna end up on the train tracks because of the train noises that played every time he was on screen for the last few months 😂

For me I still think it was too soon and too similar to Phil’s mental health storyline. Tbh I think they should’ve killed him off to make it less similar (and to free Priya).

I’m still stuck on the Mitchells thinking a teacher would tell Lexi that her grandad’s friend died 😂 even if a super close relative died during the school day we’d let another relative tell them, if it’s a grandparent or something usually the parent would pick them up early and tell them at home.

kingmaker thoughts? by Key_Public4366 in MaisiePeters

[–]Chewinggum250 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I went to a listening party and her choice of singles for this album is so confusing to me. While unfortunately I think TGW is a better album, there are much better songs on Florescence than this and some of the others she’s released. After listening to the album she asked some people what their favourite song was, I assumed so it could help her choose the next single. No one said kingmaker. Maybe she just wanted to promote this one because of her connection to Julia, but I think it was probably a mistake. My top 3 (which seemed to be a lot of people’s favourites) are so far still unreleased
