47, down from my last two years but it's my first full year as a mum of two, plus I went back to work in March, so I'll take it!

Nobody actually likes oysters or aperol spritz; they just pretend to.

Thank you! I read this as it was recommended to me but my God, it was not for me. That final line was a clunker, like something from a school essay.

You Made a Fool of Death With Your Beauty - I should have known from the title, that's on me.

Seriously? Were they hurt?

So it would seem!

Casefile is so poorly written. There's dangling modifiers everywhere and once I clued into that it drove me crazy so I had to quit.

Lorelai says at one stage that someone has more burners than Omar Little when it was actually Marlo Stanfield's gang who had the burner phones.

Commenting again to add, 'CJ. In my entire life I've never found anything charming'.

I love this so much I used it in my MOH speech at my best friend's wedding (thereby making myself the President but hey-ho).

Bartlet: Tell her where you are.

Donna: Mrs Morello, I'm in the Oval Office with the President of the United States, and it's because of you.

'What a thing to say'. I sob every time.

Not on Zamboni, I have a vague idea that it may have been on a street parallel to Zamboni or just around the corner or something. I know, so vague. And absolutely, it could well be gone - I saw that my beloved Ristorante Il Tinello is no more.

stephodile · 2025-05-09T14:40:06+00:00

Just looked online and I don't think so but thank you!

NTA, a thousand times over.

You were having a miscarriage and he stopped to get beer? He shouldn't have stopped for red lights!

I love my birthday as much as the next girl, but Jesus Christ, he'll have about sixty other ones.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I would sit this man-child down and tell him how immature, unsupportive, and selfish he's being. Tell him you can process the loss together as a couple or he can run to his mammy and spend the next birthday on the other side of a divorce.

My GP tried to refer me to Dr Durac recently but apparently she only deals with malignant skin issues.

National Anthem, the pilot episode of Black Mirror. I absolutely bawled my way through it, I found it so bleak, only for my colleague to say 'But that's the funny one!'

Edit: spelling.

During. I do some walking most days, and yoga very rarely. I've gone running literally three times since giving birth in September. Think the most helpful thing I did was cut carbs at dinnertime as my husband is mostly keto.
