You've forgotten "second breakfast". 🌹

Lychees are delicious.

Green pesto should never be used on/in anything. It's grass clippings in hair oil.

🤣🤣🤣

Oysters - snot in an ashtray (according to Paul O'Grady).

Every unnecessary piece of punctuation eg ??, ?????!!, !!???! should cause an electric zap in the writer until they learn that ? and ! is enough on its own.

My hat cam footage of crazy drivers should be enough for an immediate 3 points.

And I'm a dream world

Every driver should be made to sit on a horse (glued on if needed) and ride down a road they absolutely do not want to ride on but have no choice because it's the only way to get to the bridleways.

I'm willing for them to be wrapped in bubble wrap and on a very safe horse because I'm nice and it would still make my point that passing wide and slow is for a reason.

That reason becomes very clear when you are on top of half a tonne of car squashing animal that might freak out if you speed by with inches to spare.

No driving licences allowed without having done this.

A good book isn't the answer to everything. In fact isn't the answer to most things.

After passing the driving test, everyone should take a retest every year for the next 5 years. Hands off the super careful, experienced older drivers who have fewer accidents than boy racers....

I would agree but also raise driving age to 20. It was 17 when most school leavers left at 15. Now education is a minimum of 18, kids don't need to drive.

Anything but cows milk tastes like shit.
See also cheese.

The Simpsons is overrated, rarely amusing and beyond irritating.

Grown adults who enjoy TV talent shows or who find ant and Dec funny are absolute weirdos.

See my earlier comment on the phrase "grown adults". As opposed to what other adults? The half grown ones? At what point are we grown, most adults will admit to not feeling as grown up as they expected to feel....
Having said that, talent shows can absolutely get in the bin!

People should be made to pass a test / get a licence to have kids.

They should have them in order to have any pets.

This is Excellent, but I would also add that very able bodied adult be made to spend several months riding a bike on busy roads without cycle lanes and through busy towns with lots of parked cars with doors that suddenly open as you cycle pass, before they are allowed to have a full driving licence.

We should just let pandas die out, lazy picky-eating fuckers

I agree just let them go . Edinburgh Zoo pandas are heading back to China I'm assuming they are too costly and baby pandas didn't appear .

The new avatar Abba show looks a bit rubbish (despite everyone saying it isn't )
Making money whilst not even bothering to show up in person should be banned!
Tea is the best ever drink.
Posh restaurants are over rated. I'd rather have some fish and chips by the sea out of its container.
The Simpsons had its day years ago
Friends isn't funny at all. Most American humour is pretty false
Very hot weather is awful. Heatwaves can do one. Only good for getting washing dry.

You should actually dress for the body you have not for the body you want.

Not in a hateful way like the origin of the saying is intending; but because a crop top and hit pants don’t flatter some people, neither do mom jeans, baggy t shirts or swing dresses.

Bacon is massively overrated. Like it’s sister gammon. Too salty, very yuck. Like meaty semen.

Ms Rachel is boring, for adults and children.

evidently very much on the minds of many mumsnetters
