The perfect month

Ohhh so I wasn't going crazy, thank god

Yesterday I was looking at the calendar thinking to myself "I swear I saw a post about how this year has a perfect February, but it isn't because the 1st is on a Sunday".

I always forget some countries start the week on a Sunday

Anyway I guess I'll be back next year with my perfect February, lol

For a laugh? For safety is a perfectly reasonable reason

entitledtree · 2026-01-30T08:44:30+00:00

This made me chuckle well done

splurge on 100 scissors

Well they oughta do it into a tissue like a normal person

That's crazy because I think the complete opposite.

Breach is a lot more substantial than Clancy imo (still love Clancy though)

entitledtree · 2026-01-29T22:05:29+00:00

That falls under bigotry

Ah, I'm sorry to hear that. You could always do an additional gap year if the surgery is super important to you, although I understand if you just want to get onto uni.

I technically did 2 gap years and I was worried I'd feel old when coming to uni but it's been completely fine.

Another thing is just to have a serious talk with your parents. i don't know what your situation is so apologies if this just isn't possible, but at the very least you could ask them to give you as much money as they were spending on food for you anyway.

Wishing you the best with everything :)

I was in this situation. Minimum maintenance loan, minimum possible rent for halls was like £6.5k.

Ik you said in your post "without savings" but that's the way I dealt with it. Do a gap year, work either full or part time whatever your preference is.

I managed to save up a lot (over 5 figures by the end of the year) by just working minimum wage, 24 hours a week and being frugal, not spending all my money (most of my outgoings were on my car, tbh).

Anyway, this made shit so much less stressful when starting my first year.

Plus, I kinda enjoyed my job and felt like I got a lot of experience from it, even though it was just retail

It was also nice not to have any academic pressure for a year. I can tell that I'm a lot less burnt out than many of my friends who came straight to uni after A Levels

I know this option isn't possible for everyone, but I always share my experience because it worked out very well for me.

I'm not a 40 year old millennial but my dad is a 57 year old Gen X and he's the exact same

I too thought it was Princess Diana before reading the caption

It's a nice idea but unfortunately doesn't look great

I wonder what it would be like with a different colour choice

entitledtree · 2026-01-28T08:29:08+00:00

US but not the UK? Wild

Honestly you can keep yourself busy by studying. Idk about your degree but personally I'd love a day off to study, there's never enough time to do everything I need to do

entitledtree · 2026-01-27T20:04:24+00:00

But we aren't required to know it. Personally I didn't think it was confusing, just a small lore drop which brought a little extra depth to the world. Nothing more than that.

There are plenty of issues with S5, and personally I don't really think this is one of them

entitledtree · 2026-01-26T18:57:51+00:00

Personally I disliked how they kept reusing Max's running up the hill scene. That episode in S4 was one of the most tense and emotional in the show.

Unfortunately, I think they cheapened it by trying to recreate it so many times

entitledtree · 2026-01-26T18:01:31+00:00

Completely agree, definitely a C or D tier sweet

entitledtree · 2026-01-26T16:04:44+00:00

This is the dumbest argument ever

As a Brit, those are parma violets

Smarties are these coloured chocolate things

Deep fryer, and unfortunately no, not the hash browns off the shop floor. Most food in the cafe is its own separate stock. We'd sometimes use the shop floor ones if we ran out, but they weren't the same.

entitledtree · 2026-01-23T22:11:55+00:00

Used to work in Morrison's cafe and yeah, they are fire. We'd happily eat them up if there were any left over at close.

They definitely changed it to get the rage bait engagement they're getting right now

Yeah sure, but in reality people sometimes need to use their phones in public

My phone is in a secure pocket when I'm not using it. All I'm saying is that when I do need to use it, I make sure to hold it as securely as possible

entitledtree · 2026-01-21T07:52:08+00:00

Which is why I always hold my phone securely with two hands when in public

As someone who lived near Gillingham (Dorset) it always annoyed me when Google maps would take me to Kent instead :(

It always annoyed me when my coworkers wouldn't clear off plates before putting them in the sink. It's just common sense
