imagine walking down the aisle at your wedding while a chorus of your old coworkers sing a song about how you're annoying and have adhd

This is the most legendary moment in Wife Swap history

The worst thing about compassion is that I recently used it to try and understand, and even partially justify, the actions of Just Stop Oil. But they have now demonstrated themselves to be unhinged vandals. I hereby withdraw all sympathy.

Can someone explain the massive difference between how news sites are reporting about this missing Jay Slater, and how it’s being discussed on Twitter?

I just want a government that is accountable, compassionate, but makes tough decisions when they need to in the best interests of the country. I don’t really have any political views that aren’t totally bland. And I find myself having such massive problems with every vote option.

Anyway, in order to try and come to some kind of logical choice I did one of those online quizzes where you rate policies without knowing who they belong to. This was my result. Equal parts useless AND HORRIFYING.

In my defence, it was the made up ambiguous economical promises of Reform that I fell for on this survey, rather than any of the morally questionable stuff…

This guy explains the challenges of UK living from one visit to London.

You need jeans in a hurry. So you buy a couple of sizes and ask if you can bring the unwanted ones back for a refund. They say yes. When you go back, they will only do a credit note. Which expires. It runs out. They still have your money, you have nothing. Is this fair? Discuss.

Maybe if everyone is busy trying to get Oasis tickets I will once again be able to get tickets for actual decent live music?

I’m sorry but I refuse to feel threatened by AI taking over the world when technology still hasn’t even figured out a way for people who are scared of spiders to not constantly be forced to host them as unwanted houseguests.

I wish I could go back in time and reassure my teenage self that my lack of interest in Oasis - which made me somewhat uncool at the time - would one day (today) serve me and my stress/disappointment levels extremely well.

I find it hard to recognise medical social media these days. Maybe I am getting old and out of sight of the zeitgeist but some of the stuff I see medics posting makes me cringe so much. And I don’t say this to criticise anyone - free speech innit -but I can still thing it’s icky.

I keep thinking about what Chris Williamson said that about people being neggy about weight loss drugs like ozempic because they diminish the sense of achievement and superiority that comes from the discipline and willpower needed to be “in shape” because now everyone can do it.

I understand the desire to know more information about someone who has died suddenly and shockingly, and I understand the race for media outlets to be the ones to get the clicks. But just maybe even for one day, could we prioritise a family who have lost a loved one?

I should have known better than to buy a Twister in October tbf

I despair of how much of social media is dedicated to poor flying experiences, but honestly if David Gandy can’t get BA to treat his family like human beings what hope is there for the rest of us 🤷🏽‍♂️

Does anyone know how normal people are meant to know how much RAM they need in a MacBook Pro or whether they need a M4 chip or a pro or a Max?

I’ve joined the other place. I don’t know what I’m doing.

VERY MUCH THIS.
