If hell existed, what do you think it would be like?

I’m leaning towards an airport type place where you’re constantly stressed out to get to the right terminal to catch your flight Grin

Grey. All shades of pale grey like that horrible trend in homes recently.

And with inspo quotes everywhere and cupboards full of only cleaning products from that Hinch woman.

And the only thing on tv is Brexit.

Like a soft play place with screaming kids and gross ball pits? And nothing to eat or drink except gross cheap sliced chicken and liver and really weak squash.

dayslikethese1 · 19/09/2019 15:30

And the only music that plays is Ed Sheeran

TheLightSideOfTheMoon · 19/09/2019 15:30

It'll serve weak tea.

AnneLovesGilbert · 19/09/2019 15:34

Travelling on the underground in the summer. With my horrendous neighbours. And it smells of bacon Sad

Never ending football matches; being forced to wear crippling pointed high heels; toilets that don't flush... I'm sure there's lots more

MisunderstoodMaleficent · 19/09/2019 15:35

I think it would be different for each person. My hell would be a big party where I have to talk to people or loads and loads of people round my house for hours and hours. Or a bus journey with loads of people on it. I just realised there’s a bit of a theme going here! So basically I think there will just be loads of people 😆

Frangible · 19/09/2019 15:36

Like an eternal team away day.

Whatafackinliberty · 19/09/2019 15:36

A mumsnet thread about diets.

ItsJustTheOneSwanActually · 19/09/2019 15:38

full of screaming toddlers Grin

MirandaWest · 19/09/2019 15:39

Mine is different on different days. I would probably have to be parking an enormous car with a lot of people watching, then doing a presentation about it, where people heckled me and I would then have to phone people up.

That made me shudder. I'm off to do some good deeds and repent before it's too late!

Also, I think there will always be things irritatingly out of place everywhere all the time, wherever you look. E.g. dirty pants next to the wash basket. Shoes next to a half empty shoe wrack. Dirty plates next to the sink. Car keys thrown on the kitchen side, under the key holder. Washed and folded clothes on the floor next to an empty chest of drawers. Wait... I just described my house Hmm

AudacityOfHope · 19/09/2019 15:40

A constant background playlist of Status Quo, Tina Turner, Elton John, and Robbie Williams.

MrsGideon · 19/09/2019 15:41

Probably my office

Aposterhasnoname · 19/09/2019 15:42

Tents, it’ll have tents.

Nextphonewontbesamsung · 19/09/2019 15:43

There would be no books and nowhere to get away from other people. I would have to go bra-less and would only be allowed 1 shower per week.

Raphael34 · 19/09/2019 15:44

Definitely freezing cold rather than hot

MorvaanReed · 19/09/2019 15:47

A huge, brightly lit Supermarket with loud music, loud beeps and full of customers who want to chat to each other, blocking the aisles and standing right in front of everything you want and when they do finally move everything you want's vanished so you can't get anything on your list and have to rethink your whole weeks meal plan on the hoof which means you have to go back to the veg section to get different stuff...

And repeat.

RubbingHimSourly · 19/09/2019 15:48

You seem that episode of the Simpsons where Homers forced to eat donuts ?? That.

Only we don't like donuts.

Disfordarkchocolate · 19/09/2019 15:49

I think Andy Hamilton had it pretty right in Old Harry's Game. Hell pretty much depends on what you did to get there or what will torment you most. For me, it's likely to include cats (very allergic) and tinny music from someone elses headphones. And perhaps enforced vacuuming (because I never do any).

Hippobag · 19/09/2019 15:50

Slow walking people on narrow pavements

Starbonnet123 · 19/09/2019 15:52

Never ending Queues of traffic with traffic lights that only let one car through at a time and a cross hatch box that has cars blocking the exit Angry

TulipsTulipsTulips · 19/09/2019 15:52

I would have to physically greet rows of acquaintances, and let them physically greet me. I’m talking front hugs and slimy kisses on each cheek.

Greenglassteacup · 19/09/2019 16:01

It’ll have vacuous retail managers from part time jobs I did as a student. It will have chart pop music and goblin potted meat and semolina and all of the food would be hairy
