Why is her hair getting so big she looks like Dora the explora

At the start she had a lovely retro bob but now she looks mad

Partridge very funny. Thanks for that.

I couldn't care less about someone's hair, or their choice of name. But when they have a young woman as part of their programme who she calls the "coolest girl in the room because her boyfriend is in the band" I can feel Andrea Dworkin rolling in her grave. I am old enough to remember 70s feminism, and stuff like this makes me feel that the generation below me have gone back about five decades, and that isn't just the frocks Dawn.

Partridge every time I try to read that my internet freezes.

Every single time. I think my computer objects to her more than I do Grin I've had to give up but what I did read was funny.

What is it with that? I find it hard too. This line sums it up though, "
"Start with that username though. @HotPatooties. It’s infantilized. Knowing. Affected. Precious. Precocious. Like a burlesque routine performed to Shirley Temple songs, and only less slightly vomit-inducing. @HotPatooties is not a name I would adopt as a professional adult, it’s a name I would adopt if I was selling bespoke nipple tassels on Etsy. Then I would plunge a tant? into my abdomen."

YES.

I did a lot of eye rolling when she kept wittering on about the girl being cool due to going out with some drummer.

She probably has pictures of Anita Pallenberg up around her house.

Too try hard and the name is pretentious. She looks like my mum from the 70's wearing a dress fashioned from the curtains we used to have. Quite liked her when she was doing the sex programmes - now part of some sort of hippyish power couple.

windchime · 04/07/2014 21:42

YANBU. She looks like she is wearing a cheap nylon wig.

TheAverageJoanne · 18/03/2024 09:19

I found this as I'm just reading her book Life in Pieces. Three pages in and she's on about being high and about weed more than once. She strikes me as trying to be cool but actually immature instead.
