The word tilypu

It’s quite cute though, like a small, exotic bird?😀

How many people struggle with basic social interaction and friendships, or have friends they seem to dislike intensely for good reason.

That there was a right way and a wrong way for panty liners

The word tilypu

It was meant to be “until you”. Unfortunately you can’t edit thread titles, only the post itself.

Larryimonducktales · 02/11/2024 13:28

Honestly, loads of stuff. Also different perspectives on things etc.

I only ended up here because I was googling mooncup advice 😂

FieldInWhichFucksAreGrownIsBarren · 02/11/2024 13:28

That toilet brushes are the work of the devil.

🤣

MauveCritic · 02/11/2024 13:29

Surely not if you spray them well with alcohol and allow them to drain? Edit: I'm new here, so maybe ignore this as it was in answer to toilet brushes.

TickingAlongNicely · 02/11/2024 13:30

How judgemental people can be over seemingly insignificant things.

KimberleyClark · 02/11/2024 13:30

JaneJeffer · 02/11/2024 13:28

🤣

Honestly, it’s not that funny.

That every few months this thread would come up.

JaneJeffer · 02/11/2024 13:31

@KimberleyClark I burst out laughing. I thought it was hilarious 🤷🏻‍♀️

MistressoftheDarkSide · 02/11/2024 13:32

That chickens are like a pot of never ending porridge.....

Vine Wtf GIF

That I could make this face so much, reading about how people become not just slightly irritated, but outraged over the silliest little things.

KimberleyClark · 02/11/2024 13:32

There are loads of threads that come up regularly. Showering/personal hygiene for example. It’s quite good really, because if you miss one you know there will be another one along eventually.

That so many people are intensely private over health issues and consider any polite enquiry after their health to be rude and intrusive.

JimPanzee · 02/11/2024 13:36

KimberleyClark · 02/11/2024 13:30

Honestly, it’s not that funny.

I really is 🤣🤣🤣

And for a fun lighthearted thread, you should lighten up 😉

CurlewKate · 02/11/2024 13:37

That people literally choked on their tea/spat their tea over their keyboard.

That giving someone a lift on a journey you were doing anyway at the time you were going to do it anyway is a favour on a par with donating a kidney.

That offering a cup of tea to an adult or a bowl of pasta to a child is "hosting" and onerous.

Katemax82 · 02/11/2024 13:37

That I'm the world's worst mum because I got my daughters ears pierced at Claire and I should have my kids removed by ss because I teach them to pronounce H as aitch

JaneJeffer · 02/11/2024 13:37

I have learned that if several people think something is funny I will be the one who gets given out to for thinking it was funny
