I’ll start… dogs 😬 Never goes down well & I think if I owned one I’d probably grow to love it but in my eyes they just smell and dribble and are annoying. How about you?!

Thinking you can say whatever you like in public as it's your right.
For example, Je suis Charlie.
I think it's rude to deliberately say or do something with the sole purpose of upsetting someone else.

Groomed neat hair. I actually prefer the 'before' photos with the unruly slightly frizzy look.

Is that you Boris? 😁

Totally agree with the mourning of random celebs.

I vaguely know someone who puts up OTT "what an inspiration" statuses whenever anyone in the film world dies.

Not in the field and can't possibly have heard of them all, and it just seems weirdly attention seeking. Look at me mourning this random director that I'm aware of, how cultured am I?

Flowers.

Love the sentiment. Hate the faff of putting them in a vase and then cleaning them up when they die. Oh and the horrible smell when they're going off.

The 60s love in. It wasn't that wonderful I'm sure.
Most cakes these days are horrible.
