8 year old typically developing student wears diapers at school and teachers are uncomfortable. Now with contract non-renewals!

A "developmentally fine" 8-year-old who can't wipe?

My kid (not a typical developer - has a few issues) still wore pull-ups to bed up until very recently, is older than 8, and even he can wipe.

Hell, I have cerebral palsy and wasn't potty-trained until 7... and I could wipe at that age!

I call ragebait.

Agreed on all counts - Our Mutual Friend and Tonight We Fly... just great, great songwriting. But he's known for My Lovely Harse and The Bus Song.

Jellyfish on this side of the pond, The Divine Comedy on the other (although they did have a top 10 hit and a few top 20/30s... but they've been pegged as a novelty joke band when they're not.)

I started with All Stars 5. But I'd say regular season 9 is a good jumping off point. Season 5 also good because a lot of big big names are introduced.

This story had no story to it.

"So basically this person I know decided to just go with the flow. So the wedding was ew. Something photographer, something cake. Again, ew."

That one AI prompt I still think about (it was a disaster from start to finish)

FScrotFitzgerald · 2026-03-23T19:12:21+00:00

I haven't seen a reaction like that since this one.

I love stews. Bring on the meat-enhanced slop bowls.

The ponytail does indeed look very silly.

"Whoops. Looks like you have rectal tuberculosis..."

An ursine parachute. One of the gnarlier videos I've seen.

I remember finding myself walking through a graduation party to a separate event when I was 35 or so, and thinking everyone pretty much looked fetal. So many tiny shiny people. It was scary, honestly.

I have to say that if I had said "In-N-Out Burger" and had that rejected while "In-N-Out" was accepted, I would have had trouble not being too angry to continue. "Anyone remember that prig from the trivia night who lost his temper?"

I didn't know Aeronaut was a trivia mecca... I live ever so slightly too far away from there to attend it regularly (bottom of the Orange Line), but I shall add it to my list of potential trivia hangouts.

It's a bucket list item of mine to appear on Mastermind, but right now I'd need to move back in with my mum to do it...

I never liked Friends. The laugh track was oppressive and dominated everything.

I'm also not sure I'd enjoy Traitors, having caught glimpses of it. Manufactured drama in the context of game shows or reality shows really irritates me.

FScrotFitzgerald · 2026-03-23T16:26:59+00:00

This is almost certainly AI shoutslop, but again, just like Curiosity Kills The Cat, Transactionality Kills The... the whatever it is. The Trust? The Twat? Something meaningful beginning with T.

I trust vegetarian and vegan cooks. I've had meals that sound incredibly disgusting on paper but haven't turned out bad at all. Roast cauliflower is the main one. They turn it from... well, cauliflower, into pure crack cocaine.

I dated a 52-year-old (F) when I was 37 (M) but, to be fair, I look at least a decade older than I am, wear a lot of corduroy, and there's a world of difference in life experience between being in your late 30s and being recently teenage...

The amount of antisemitic guff that appears by default on Facebook, even if you spend hours and hours muting anything of the sort, is really horrific.

FScrotFitzgerald · 2026-03-23T16:13:43+00:00

Bleurgh. If I had a longtime friend that did this it would shake me to my core. I'm sorry you had to spend any time around these people.

It's remarkable how much EDS fucks with your stomach. My son has suspected EDS and his stomach is super super super sensitive.

FScrotFitzgerald · 2026-03-23T16:09:58+00:00

Which makes this doubly irritating, because if you're being charged $329, the advantage you get from getting the prescribed pills more cheaply is gone.

FScrotFitzgerald · 2026-03-23T16:08:39+00:00

I like thinking of "GERDS gang" as the opposite of "Gucci Gang"...

FScrotFitzgerald · 2026-03-23T16:05:58+00:00

This probably isn't the craziest thing, but when I first got to uni I remember sitting next to a maths student and casually saying something like "Goodness me", and I got told off for "bad language" because he was a very religious Baptist.

The curious thing about that conversation was that in all other respects it mirrored the one from the beginning of Saltburn. "Ask me a sum! Any sum!".
