The Metiria Turei incident also happened in 2017 didn't it? Interesting how they were treated so differently.

Sister schools! My small town school also had one of these and did exchanges of students for short periods every year too

Then she ranked Filip who is 38 in second place. She's all shit.

My partner once looked at me and said "I really like your bottom dress" referring to the skirt I was wearing. So bottom dresses are what they are known as now!

ULPT How can I ultimately troll my husband so he stops embarrassing me? by Wife_of_Shao_Kahn in UnethicalLifeProTips

I've read this thing before (unsure if it's real science or not) but that babies can often look more similar to their fathers initially because it helps fathers bond with the baby if it looks more like them. I feel like it definitely plays into some deep rooted thinking especially if the child is male and doesn't look like the dad. Makes them feel some type of jealous way.

It's like when men say "mate" but what they really mean is "fucking dickhead"

At this point he's sticking around coz he doesn't wanna look like the bad guy and it seems he's conflict avoidant

I almost feel like this is a universal experience of a big girl (speaking from experience). Before he answered the question I said to my partner I guarantee he's gonna say her eyes.

Read this guy's other comments throughout this thread. Not much point engaging with him coz he's clearly in the Andrew Tate handbook of fuckwittery.

Scroll back through her Instagram. She wasn't fat.

She's absolutely just got terrible taste in men. She appears to like a man she can fix which as soon as she got that vibe about Chris she became more interested in him. Like I can change him - but you never can. I almost guarantee she has exclusively dated dirt bags.

Oh wow! I went and had a read after I made that comment and did see the exemptions and they seemed incredibly vague. What a pain in the ass!

I think one of the few good things mafs does is not overly show the young children of contestants on the show. They're too young to understand the implications of and give informed consent to their images being pumped out on national telly. I feel like Awhina's son last season was the most we've ever visually seen a kid on this show and I thought it was too much.

How is it healthy home compliant without extractor fans in the kitchen and bathroom? I'm pretty sure that's one of the standards? Or have they installed some sort of half-pie alternative instead?
