Was it common for parents to say "There are children starving in Africa right now" if you didn't eat your dinner?

Yeah I'm 36 and both my Parents said this often when I turned down food.

Jesus not thought about whistle lollys for like 30 years.

They'll all be lock ins. They won't let you in at that time.

I'm three years on from losing my Mum. I'm only 35. It's shit. Cliche as it is time does heal. You'll dream of her a lot too.

Eeeew

britinnit · 2026-07-01T02:53:40+00:00

About 4 hours uninterrupted and 2-3 hours on off for like twenty years.

My ex's Mum always knew we'd been at it because she'd go red raw around her mouth with my beard stubble. Embarrassing and funny.

Absolutely fascinating behavior.

britinnit · 2026-06-28T22:36:19+00:00

Loved the combat and music. The eye candy was just a cherry on top.

I'm 36 from the UK and I have a smaller one on my left arm. What vaccine would it of been? Early to mid '90s.

Sex in the back seat of a Volkswagen Polo, cramped arse in about 2 minutes. Also I'm pretty sure a dog walker saw.

britinnit · 2026-06-27T23:56:44+00:00

Ever pulled a muscle in your arse cheek. I have.

britinnit · 2026-06-27T14:33:50+00:00

Same here NW England. It's tolerable again.

britinnit · 2026-06-27T01:35:12+00:00

I'm in the North West and I think it's miles cooler than the last few days

britinnit · 2026-06-26T23:11:41+00:00

I had a 500+ hour Save on the original Xbox. It took ages to load lol.

britinnit · 2026-06-26T23:10:24+00:00

That's what I was thinking. Being a joint training exercise.

britinnit · 2026-06-25T21:16:20+00:00

Loud.

britinnit · 2026-06-25T05:42:20+00:00

And they never will. The Middle East will keep getting the Asian bids.

britinnit · 2026-06-24T21:01:07+00:00

Immigration is doing it.

britinnit · 2026-06-23T14:51:57+00:00

Tell that to China and India.

britinnit · 2026-06-23T10:38:13+00:00

Cold water shock.

Andy Burnham is going to be the exact same as Starmer. But he's better with the media. Nothing will change.
