Hotel Chocolat chocolate. I've just had the salted caramel puddles and they were nothing to write home about (and I love chocolate).
To be fair, I have plebeian chocolate tastes Blush and it could just be that their milk chocolate has a higher cocoa content than most, and doesn't taste creamy enough.
I still don't enjoy their chocolate though.

Over to you.

Birthdays
Just had mine and it was hard work trying to appear happy all day when I really wanted to sit in a dark room and cry.

Filler. Most people look absolutely awful with it. It's particularly sad seeing so many lovely looking young women making themselves look ridiculous by having lip filler....it seems to be everywhere!

Catandcandle · 21/06/2022 12:04

Lip filler is not just overrated, it is positively awful. Tear trough filler however changed my life.

Oh fuck yes celebrity, this weird obsession with people you have never met? I cannot wrap my head around why anybody even has the slightest interest. It makes me feel icky, like it's kind stalkerish?

Especially putting them on a pedastool.
Instagram celebs get so much obsessives like this. And the horrid thing is when they might do something wrong and if anyone calls them out their army erupts and the vile comments are horrific.and because Instagram are literally paid to advertise and lie to sell you some product they always never use their fans almost believe they love them.best friends.uncles and aunties to their kids!

Method/Ecover cleaning products - overpriced and ineffective, both companies are owned by SC Johnson.
