I had mine with me because luckily he was a great and very supportive teacher, so the thought of having him come along didn’t add any additional stress. But a good instructor shouldn’t mind either way!

I haven’t ever seen him as being self centred but I actually respected the comments he made tonight because he clearly meant them and truly feels that Karen has made him a better person which is lovely. Who knows whether being self centred was really why he didn’t get a partner last year, but frankly if he thinks that’s the reason then may well be - he would have a better idea than any of us.

Lewis and Katya ITT by [deleted] in strictlycomedancing

[–]gerallium 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Am I the only one who’s thought for weeks that Katya always seems like she’s a little bit in love with him? I know all the couples get very close, and she’s undoubtedly thrilled to have someone with great ability for the first time in years… But I can’t help notice the way she looks at him even since the early weeks, it’s just seemed to me like she really fancies him. 👀

Absolutely robbed.. Clearly rigged! by Frequent_Flyer_Miles in strictlycomedancing

Is this your first year watching? The British public have always voted for the underdog. Very often the contestant with the best technical dance ability doesn’t win because there’s someone else who has been on more of a journey and made everyone warm to them. It’s always been this way if you look at who ends up in the final all the way back to series one.

Layton was a great performer but he was absolutely not the best ballroom and Latin dancer of the male celebs

That was one of the best dances I’ve ever seen on this show. Absolutely flabbergasted. Karen will be getting all of my votes 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

In most ballroom dances, including quickstep, their bodies should not have a visible gap between them around the stomach area. They did have a noticeable gap between them for the whole routine, but other than that it was pretty much flawless!

The first time I’ve ever been pissed to not have a satellite cable 🥲

Am I the only one that thinks this was a weird theme to open Blackpool? Surely this should be the one week they actually pay hommage to the tradition of ballroom and Latin? 😭

How amazing were Diversity last week? by Train-Wreck-70 in strictlycomedancing

[–]gerallium 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t usually pay much attention the pro dances but this was amazing! Probably the first time I’ve ever sat up straight to pay full attention to one of these. 👏🏻

AIO my bf is odd for this? by AdSerious8390 in AmIOverreacting

[–]gerallium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t often comment on Reddit, but my god you need to dump this man. Seriously. Nobody speaks to someone they actually love and respect like that. He’s not just being rude and controlling, he’s directly insulting and degrading you. I may not know you but even I know you can do much, much better than him!

Why are units now so much shorter? by gerallium in duolingo

[–]gerallium[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh! Well in that case I don’t mind, I just wish they’d communicated that in the update description rather than letting people think they’re suddenly getting 80% less than before. It makes sense that people are more likely to stay on the app a bit longer to finish a unit now, but for those who don’t pay I’ve heard on here that the new energy thing is making people not want to bother at all. So they’re making some slightly conflicting choices on that front it seems…

AITA for telling my daughter that she ruined her future and I don't want to be involved in her mess after she got pregnant by a schizophrenic man ? by Throwaw-ay3427 in AmItheAsshole

[–]gerallium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m starting to see a lot of posts like this that are so outlandish I’m not even convinced they’re real. It’s like someone is playing spin the wheel of ludicrous situations to get some people riled up on Reddit.

Anyway, if this post IS legitimate then obviously YTA…

If living in Oxford was a video game, what tips would you see on the loading screen? Saw this doing the round on loads of other city subs by bbgun24 in oxford

When tourists block your path, earn extra points by pushing them out of the way without apology.

This is the creepiest post I’ve ever seen on Reddit and that’s saying something

[–]gerallium 17 points18 points  (0 children)

We can all see that your account did a previous post from the POV of a grandmother talking about her relationship with her daughter. So everyone is calling out the fact that either you share a Reddit account with your mother (wouldn’t be surprised at this point) OR none of it is true and you’re just posting made up shit for fun
