A world where it’s not just actors, musicians and sports people who can become stars.

If everything else is wonky then “level” looks wrong.

Ignore what randos on the web say - the opinions of only two people matter. You and her. Good luck; however it works out.

More terrifying even then if they were competent?

You may want to look up “pantomime dame” and have a read.

Me.

You’re familiar with market towns in the UK? A bit like one of those but with hours and hours of agricultural land all around it. A solitary high street in the middle of nowhere.

N.B. I’m not USian so don’t know what I’m on about…

I’m so sorry you had to find out.

I’d also recommend avoiding Mr. Hands and 2 girls 1 cup but, to be honest, these three are just the tip of a vile iceberg.

I’ve embedded Wikipedia links; just in case.

Me and my life choices.

Do you regret asking that question?

Melt your bank card in acetone. Carefully remove the chip and copper antenna. Place in small mould, fill with resin. Bobby Fingers (YouTuber) did this for a one-eyed friend so he could pay with his eyeball… Consider an rfid blocking case.

Yeah - back in the day A/S/L was asked so you had a rough idea of the type of person you were talking (typing) with…

37/M/India v 15/F/US would give you a very rough idea of the demographic the other person belonged to - and might shape your conversation differently.

I see people add milk, I see people add cream - is butter that different?

I have no idea why your comment would get removed. You’re entitled to your own opinion and to ask questions… and yes, it was fairly tame. I wouldn’t immediately classify you as an anti-vax lunatic on the strength of what you wrote.

I’m far more alarmed that people with zero medical or scientific background think they can just wade into debates about vaccinations that they have zero knowledge about… a Facebook post and a quick web search doesn’t equate to a phd and thirty years experience in a specialist field.

I normally get about four years or so out of an iPhone, with heavy and extensive daily use - works out as less than 50 (US) cents a day. I used to pay more for a newspaper.

I only made the switch when BlackBerry OS10 “failed” and they quit making handsets. I still miss my Z30 though…

I meant the censoring of “whore”…

The wildest bit of unnecessary censoring I’ve ever seen…

I’ve never seen “explanation” spelt with a “k” rather than an “x” but otherwise it seems easy to read.

I don’t mind your style of written English, it’s putting the fun back into phonetic.

Yeah, yeah. I know it looks that way but they actually have more vowels than the English… go figure.
