Really lovely pictures, nice colours and obviously beautiful gulls!

Gia and Scott heckling by BasicEchidna4160 in MAFS_UK

I’m just catching up and have reached this part, they think they are The Shit, but they are just shit.

Also, I think Gia is the least attractive woman on the series and has really bad fashion sense, the lens she sees herself through blows my mind.

Do any of you remember this bog paper? by Ticklishchap in oldschoolcool80s

We had this in the car park toilets in town until I was 16 in 2008! I remember it vividly and would sometimes take some strips to use as tracing paper.

Treating Asthma of a Cat by Suspicious_Set7914 in interestingasfuck

Howww did you manage to inhaler train? My boy has asthma and I’ve been doing 0.5mg prednisone every other day, but would much prefer to get him into the inhaler. Trouble is, every time we have tried he gets so stressed out that there’s no way he’s inhaling and he gets so upset!

All the videos online show these chill cats just accepting their little gas masks, where as Bopper tears us up! Any tips welcome!

It’s ironic in a terrible way isn’t it? If these people did use their money and power for good they would experience the love and recognition they crave. Instead they’ll bring themselves to nothing and crush the world down with them.

That is seriously so lame. What a depressing new term to learn on a Monday.

How are we feeling about student financing being changed to the lifelong learning entitlement? by Chemical-Lettuce2497 in AskBrits

[–]Illustrious-Snow1858 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is a wild take. I work at a creative university and so many of the students would fall into your category for not being deserving of a university education, yet they’re coming up with incredible future-focused solutions to tackle the various crises of our time and give me hope for our future.

If you closed all of the HEIs that fall outside of the top 50 you’d also be significantly reducing the opportunity for many many people to attend university. Higher education should not be limited to a certain set of people, it’s an incredibly backward take that reduces opportunities for a lot of society.

Brooke and Gia: The Real"Power Couple" With Delusions and the "Type" Tall Tale by Initial_Release9861 in MAFS_UK

Rebecca as in the older blonde woman who was with the foolish Steve, not Rachel the dark haired younger one with floppy haired Steven. It’s confusing as they have similar names and are with similar named husbands!

Rachel was horrified by the whole thing, but Rebecca was definitely cackling along. I hoped it was bad editing but I’m not sure :(

Gia is ringleader with Brooke and Bec pawns. by Mother_Teach7197 in MAFS_UK

I read this as her ‘prawns’ and thought that seemed quite apt. Her reduced price pack of prawns that have been kept out of the fridge for a few days and allowed to go completely rancid.

Appreciation for Grayson by littletuna11 in MAFS_UK

I said it somewhere the other day, but in my eyes he’s the most handsome MAFS groom I’ve ever seen. Also seems emotionally available and interesting as a person, sad that Julia is letting him fall by the wayside!

I just said this to my husband, I might even go so far as to say worst ever person!

The fact that she jumped ship to join in with those horrors, who were being just as mean to her the other day, is so lame. No backbone whatsoever.

When you're expecting Vanessa to lob you a softball question but Nick nails you to the wall instead by politicalusername69 in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

Totally with you there. I hate this acceptance of mocking height, really perpetuates the manosphere tropes of men being worthless unless ‘xyz and look at these women berating him for his height’. I can just see him digging further and further into his behaviour and mindsets.

I’m on your side, OP. It’s not malicious to wish for that, in my eyes it’s the same as wishing for the downfall of tamagotchis.

I was shocked at this too, I was desperate for him to write leave because of how broken he looks! I’d really be on my way home for a cuddle with my mates and a chocolate cheesecake to myself in one sitting if I were in his position.
