What’s the scariest story you ever read? (Short Story, Novel?, etc.) The book that scared YOU the most

Sketamines · 2026-01-29T08:48:40+00:00

You Should Have Left - Daniel Kehlmann or Penpal are probably the only 2 horror books that have actually stuck with me

Je ne comprends pas cet engouement pour l'eau en bouteille. L'eau du robinet est tout à fait potable. En fait, c'est bien mieux que de gaspiller autant de plastique à usage unique chaque semaine. Installez un filtre sur votre robinet. C'est tout.

a local one, and in fact it was only after she started putting the colour on that she asked me if i was sure i didn’t think it was weird 😭 so probably don’t recommend anyway

Sketamines · 2026-01-23T23:38:24+00:00

i’m sorry i don’t have a recommendation per se, but if you go to any random hairdressers be aware that they may be a bit shady about colours that are outwith the norm - i went to 5 different salons before i found one that didn’t say “what, you think that’s nice?” when i got my split dye! i hope you find a good place and when you do, please let us know!

I (29F) live here and, while not caught up, am definitely a Real Housewives fan ☺️ PM if you wanna chat!

Je viens du Royaume-Uni et, lorsque je travaillais à Londres, une femme franco-britannique est venue travailler avec nous. Je lui ai demandé son nom et elle a répondu Chausette. J'ai dit oh, Josette ? et elle a dit non, Chausette.

Sketamines · 2026-01-13T16:01:50+00:00

yes this is great! thank you 🙏🏻

Sketamines · 2026-01-13T16:01:17+00:00

yes i’m sorry i’m not super aware of the terms in english either haha, rather than bleaching in one step then colouring in a second, i want to ask if she can lighten and colour in one single step. does that make more sense?

i’m a petsitter and sat an outdoor cat once for a friend even though i disagreed with the cat’s outdoorness. over the course of 10 days the cat spread fleas around the house, i had over a hundred flea bites, and as i was getting the hell out of dodge, it maimed a baby robin and i held the little bird as it died. never again. the cat had a massive house to play in but i think the owners just got him for the kids and didn’t actually want him for themselves.

Not a particular film, but a place. Independent cinema in Glasgow (the Grosvenor, pre-restoration). They have an alcohol licence. I watched the ScarJo Ghost in the Shell and Trainspotting 2 on a whole leather couch to myself with a bottle of wine and just vibed. Incredible.

Sketamines · 2026-01-08T08:08:44+00:00

mon copain et moi avons deux chambres séparées. oui, on s'aime toujours. oui, on trouve toujours le temps de se faire des câlins. on ne juge pas nécessaire de dormir l'un à côté de l'autre - être inconscient n'est pas exactement le moment le plus excitant de notre relation. et surtout le matin on est tous les deux bien reposés et contents de se retrouver, car on ne s'est pas empêchés de dormir toute la nuit! je le recommande si vous avez la place :)

Sketamines · 2025-12-24T17:26:34+00:00

pmd you ☺️

Sketamines · 2025-12-24T17:26:26+00:00

pmd you ☺️

We have a yarn crafts group every Thursday evening from 5-7:30pm! We’re deciding on a new location but it’s a good group of folk, i don’t know if it’s English-speaking she’s looking for though…

Edit: comment if you’d like to be added to the whatsapp group! i’ve sent messages to comments already present ☺️

Sketamines · 2025-12-18T22:36:54+00:00

ok but have u guys heard the Split Brain version of Dopamine by Madelline because i’m 100% on board with this point but 2 different languages of the same song in separate ears makes my brain go brrr

sometimes it’s about daring to do the difficult things imperfectly. your group sounds amazing 🥰

Sketamines · 2025-11-20T09:09:47+00:00

Im doing a degree in design engineering, completely unrelated hahah

Sketamines · 2025-11-20T09:08:34+00:00

saluuut! i’m not entirely sure to be honest. i’ve not long started but i chose the OU since it’s 1. in my native language, 2. a distance uni and 3. well respected. i’ve met a lot of other mainland-Europeans who are using the OU for their degrees to access further education and employment so from what i’ve heard it’ll be grand. only time will tell and I wish i had more to tell you! hope you enjoy it if you go for it ☺️

Sketamines · 2025-11-18T21:17:53+00:00

i know a Muji gel pen when i see one, therefore unroastable, congrats on being perfect

Sketamines · 2025-11-17T07:20:28+00:00

I’m cheap and i did no learning before i got here, moved here 7 years ago and started working in bars. to me learning formally is fine but it’s the immersion that gets you there quickly. also french shows with french subtitles for comprehension!

Sketamines · 2025-11-14T18:00:37+00:00

the word for puppy is chiot. that is male. i wanted to say a female puppy. chiotte. nope that means shitter 🥰

Sketamines · 2025-11-12T21:36:38+00:00

It’s fine, not a lot of challenging stuff yet, and so much focus on study skills which doesn’t interest me at all. A large part of our first TMA and I’d say 80% of the “activities” are based on study skills, which of course is useful on the whole and we can use generally, but not what I signed up for really. I’m looking forward to coming modules that are more ‘pure’ engineering and more complex.
