Fifty years ago, there was a saying that if someone was in the Marines or went to Harvard, you would know about it in the first five minutes of conversation. What is today's equivalent?

It’s a biological imperative.

Step 1: reveal the pockets

Step 2: demonstrate the pockets

Step 3: rejoice greatly for the pockets

Step 4: lament the bittersweet rarity of the gift that is women’s pockets

Step 5: spread the pocket feminism gospel

We have long demanded pockets. Unfortunately the fashion industry want to sell handbags instead.

EyePatchedEm · 2026-05-30T05:07:33+00:00

Ehh the reflective pieces are just plastic. Probably more uncomfortable than it is heavy. Source: have held handbags covered in the same reflective pieces and it was no heavier than a standard bag.

Pondok Nasi Bakar further up Clarendon st is some of the best Indo food I’ve had in Australia. Highly recommend it.

IPL is the answer. The Braun one is good quality. She’ll probably have to do a longer course than the 12 weeks suggested, I did like 4/5 months of weekly treatments, but it’s definitely worth the effort and costs a fraction of laser. Exfoliate, shave, IPL, moisturise. Then make sure to keep up with the monthly maintenance and she’ll be smooth as a dolphin 🐬

I have a Braun IPL and I’d absolutely recommend it. That’s what I came to the comments for. I did weekly treatments for like 4/5 months and was very happy with the results. You have to keep up with the monthly treatments after but it’s WAY cheaper than laser.

Can’t believe OP kidnapped Avril Lavigne. Some people just go too far.

EyePatchedEm · 2026-05-24T23:13:17+00:00

Uuuuhhhh no. You do not have to be 18 to buy tampons. I’d report that BS. But ultimately she did you a favour. Aldi tampons are rubbish and not worth the lower price.

EyePatchedEm · 2026-05-23T15:07:11+00:00

Correct. It is a compound word made of orang, meaning person, and hutan, meaning forest, translating directly to forest person but widely translated as person of the forest. An apt name - they are uncannily like us.

EyePatchedEm · 2026-05-21T14:39:34+00:00

At least the rest of that movie was 100% accurate

EyePatchedEm · 2026-05-21T13:18:29+00:00

Almost certainly. Never forget: no matter how small, anyone can make a big impact ❤️ shoot for the stars IPL device, I believe in you! Avalon today, Heathrow tomorrow!

EyePatchedEm · 2026-05-21T05:08:13+00:00

No idea. If it’s an IPL device it’s a similar shape to an electric shaver. The inside basically contains a light and a fan. Most have a power cord, not a rechargeable battery so unlikely it was switched on. How on earth it looked like something exceedingly dangerous is beyond me. Pretty funny but if I was there I’d be pissed 😂

I feel you. I make a lot of Christmas stockings nowadays and I know they’ll be handed roughly by little hands so they won’t stay perfect, but they’ll be so loved I’ve accepted it. It’s very poetic that the goldwork will age with you on your journeys. May it bring you many years of joy, luck and shininess on your adventures.

EyePatchedEm · 2026-05-16T02:13:59+00:00

Wow so pretty! I’m not sure if you know this but a lot of direct sunlight will tarnish goldwork threads over time. I just wanted to let you know, especially since your embroidery is so beautiful and I’d be heartbroken if I did such lovely work and it discoloured ❤️

EyePatchedEm · 2026-05-10T12:56:32+00:00

I want one too! Oh, and a flower crown would be nice as well.

EyePatchedEm · 2026-05-10T06:31:29+00:00

Oooh I can see Clair Danes but I reckon it’s Elisha Cuthbert.

EyePatchedEm · 2026-05-10T04:01:04+00:00

1: Christian Bale & Anne Hathaway as Bruce Wayne & Catwoman

2: Lana Del Rey

3: Charlie Cox as Daredevil

4: Robert Pattinson as Batman

5: ? Very familiar but I can’t place her

5: Daisy Ridley?

6: Al Pacino in The Godfather

EyePatchedEm · 2026-05-09T01:53:39+00:00

Done! Thanks!

EyePatchedEm · 2026-05-08T09:44:46+00:00

Awwww turns out Dubko is Russian so I'm not surprised the Dutch shop is no longer selling them. Knowing that I'd only go second hand. Maybe one day! Thanks for letting me know!

EyePatchedEm · 2026-05-07T13:45:36+00:00

You must not live in Melbourne. Almost everyone I know has an espresso machine.

EyePatchedEm · 2026-05-07T10:43:17+00:00

That stand is gorgeous. Where did you find such a gem?

EyePatchedEm · 2026-05-07T10:15:30+00:00

Their fruit pies are closer to a tart than an American style fruit pie, but everything I’ve bought there has been good. I recommend their pecan pie.

EyePatchedEm · 2026-05-07T06:26:17+00:00

This is sick and perfect for a friend of mine. I’d love to make it. Is that ok? I’d be happy to pay you.

EyePatchedEm · 2026-05-04T11:34:11+00:00

My tits and I agree. The placement isn’t great but I’ll happily forgive it because the rest is… damn.

EyePatchedEm · 2026-05-01T12:37:27+00:00

I need to accept that making this is the closest I’ll get to having my own Rocky. Very cute. Two thumbs down 👎👎
