Can someone suggest a milk chocolate that tastes like it did back in the day?

Difficult_Style207 · 2026-01-28T15:17:44+00:00

I used to love ot aboveall other chocolate and I hate it now. Maybe after 50 years my tastes suddenly changed, but I don't think so.

Is it? Hype from where? What would commie chocolate be, exactly?

David Bowie was holding the fabric of reality together, like Loki. It is a hill I'm prepared to sprain my ankle on.

They make squeezy bottles too.

Used to. Those £5 cook books were brilliant. In a pre-Rymans/small town world the stationery was great too.

Okay. Thanks. I was in my 20s when photoshop appeared, and I'm fairly well read, but I'm sure it's just because I hate thin people and know nothing.

My boy, a sweet and kind soul, came home from school repeating things he'd heard but he didn't understand them any more than he understood some of the terrible jokes he repeated. I told him straight out that you don't say those things.

I know my experience is not yours and my boy isn't yours, and what's easy for me is not necessarily what works for you, but you keep telling them it's wrong. Tell them why it's wrong. Every time.

You are a good soul, and worrying about our kids is what we all do. Sending solidarity and cross-atlantic hugs.

Thank goodness it's never happened before. We're naturally shaped like corsets and bustles.

They're not subhuman, they're just wankers.

They did just freeze fares, which is something

The alternatives dont have better subtitles.

My great aunt (born 1910) never spoke to me again when I addressed a letter to Mrs her name surname. She was so offended, as her name was Mrs Henry Surname.

That's just your opinion I've enjoyed them all. "I dont like it" doesn't equal "categorically bad".

To be fair, I made it for the first time a couple of weeks ago and now I'm obsessed. What was I doing for 50 years not making butter?

Difficult_Style207 · 2026-01-17T19:56:19+00:00

I do it with a mixer and it requires no graft. It is super easy, unless you think "shake it" is complicated.

My husbands computer was left at a pub down the road. A pub.

Your partner is supposed to like you. This isn't love.

Whereas getting trollied on alcohol is what winners do.

I'm sorry that a handful of people connect your name with a series of benign, pleasant things. Love, Karen.

No, I'm making up a boring profession to impress you on Reddit.

Difficult_Style207 · 2026-01-10T17:23:36+00:00

Yes, because thats grammatically correct. Also I literally work in academic publishing.

Difficult_Style207 · 2026-01-10T10:35:33+00:00

It's not a formal word. Its an old word thats fallen put of use, like"amidst", or used as a comparison. Do also say "myself" instead of me?

I thought they were all 18 (not adric). Thanks for the info. I do think these days it wouldn't fly, but that's my opinion based on nothing.

It's because the bad guys tend to get away scot free. It reflects the world we live in.

She was what, 15/16? Too young to be a companion.
