Things you've learned from this site

[Tueresmuyguapo]

According to recent threads:

Everyone over the age of about 35 looks way younger, constantly mistaken for younger, doesn't have a line on their face yet despite never using suncream, and their nan only used bin juice on their face and smoked 80 fags a day but had beautiful skin at 103 years old.

Everyone had sex with their complete stranger dp within about 4 seconds of meeting them for the first time, their dp moved in that night and never left and they're coming up to 762 years of happy marriage now.

Everybody on here seems to earn 200k in some mysterious job that doesn't seem to exist, they can't quite explain what they do, but they worked their asses off to get to this level of seniority which involves them working 3 hours a week for 2 weeks a year.

Interested to hear any more.

They do! It is rare but they do stop so they have some love from me.

They wait at traffic lights? Blimey. The ones in our town just swerve onto the pavement and whizz round the corner that way.

Many people here are just daft.

Everyone is on a bloody 'journey'

Many people make shit up for attention.

I'm East London. They are probably terrified of what we'd do if they messed with us

I didnt even know you could do that

I learnt about twitchy fanny syndrome and it nearly broke me.

Gorblimey. Who has the time? Or the incentive?

True true
Its actually a bit creepy isn't it. X

That's why people name change frequently (well one of the reasons anyway)

You can use "advanced search" to look at all my posts, but only the ones I have made using this username (and I promise they are all very boring!)

That taking sand from a beach is a criminal offence! 😳

Aww dont change your name i like borangejuice. Yeah i cba looking tbf. Mine will be drivel too.

That...
My kids should not be allowed in restaurants and especially not with a tablet on loud volume.
Cats do revenge poos/vomit on nice beds
Men are the cause of most of the world's problems
Some people have wonderfully unrealistic ideas like suggesting a horse can wear a unicorn horn
I probably t rex and don't realise it especially in Asda
It's better to ask MN community than a real doctor especially concerning A+E
Never walk past a window naked

This puts me in mind of the outrage on the sneaking a McDonald's happy meal into the cinema thread a few days ago 😂😂

or pebbles! (Brighton)

You had to come on here to learn that?

That, despite the average earnings on here being approximately ten billion pounds, nobody knows the difference between 'discrete' and 'discreet'.

@Redlarge I like my username too, but if I am posting about anything that anyone might conceivably recognise then I change it. I happened to see a picture of a cat on one thread and knew exactly whose cat it was because the same picture had come up on my FB feed a few days previously!

I sometimes post pictures of my finished craft projects, but anyone that knows me would probably recognise them as mine - it's the seemingly innocuous things that can be inadvertently "outing" ;-)

Vroom! nor rein/reign, both examples used as alternative spelling,
the standard of which can be quite dire, I learned as are
comprehension skills, example - ‘I have a van’ problem, answer-
tell him to put his bag in the boot !? second/third comment
in, I learned with immense dismay, standards not being
met, let alone maintained, when a quick scan of a title and
a read through would enable correction.
Paragraphs would be good too.

That people do not realise that times have changed.

« Well I bought my own house when I worked ten hours per week as a dinner lady so I don’t see the issue. »

Yes love, in 1975 you could afford a house. Congratulations. Things are A BIT DIFFERENT NOW.

I was HR, for many years. I never knew we were held in such contempt.

No ones partner watches porn because their Walter finds it degrading and is a feminist *

• Walter watches porn on his phone in the bathroom whilst pretending to have a long shit or a shower.

The ONLY place the OW is celebrated as an icon of feminism and even if she was your Maid of Honour,, has kicked you in the head, whilst wearing your wedding dress and you have caught her and DH at it in your mother's bed AND she laughed at you and called you a minger she is entirely blameless, only your DH is to blame and if you dare say a bad word about her you're a big fat misogynist.

This is a joke, right? OW are absolutely vilified on here.

Everybody likes Harry Bloody Potter, except people who are weird.

You didn't?

Well, it's basically because you know far too much about all employees and the reason you're there is to protect the employer while pretending you're protecting the staff. If the employer wants to screw someone over, as is often their wont, you're there to make sure they do it legally. Plus the awareness days and online training modules are really, really annoying. You've also got a reputation, rightly or wrongly, for being bad with paperwork.

It's OK, we don't go to work to make friends. But yes, HR annoys people.
