Rictus bot is so dumb going on about annual leave. Didn't she work in a school? So I guess she would have more annual leave than us mere mortals? If I am wrong please correct me 😉

Interestingly in that post on TT she refers to "leaving my education career" not crowing about being an AHT...... very unlike her. Maybe she wants to come across as more relatable and not that scary headmistress vibe or too professional so anyone can do it, probs just lying though.

YouOKHun · 17/07/2026 13:58

Or maybe she feels the need to be a bit more vague about her former career? Mr and Mrs Rictus have absolutely no footprint before 2018, no social media, no LinkedIn, no other mentions, no Companies House for her, which you’d expect given her earnings! There is just his two wound up companies listed.

I’d expect her to have LinkedIn listing the degrees she says she has, the former career she talks about and the current grift too. She is a superficial show off but strangely hard to pin down. She says she didn’t use social media before 2018 which is perfectly possible I suppose, but it feels like a conscious effort on both their parts to obscure something that doesn’t fit with their current narrative.

it would be a shock to find out a Forever Living bot is lying about their “journey” and their success wouldn’t it?

PS: the Airbnb is free Sunday to Thursday this week if anyone fancies a short break?

yes you are correct the lack of online footprint is really odd even with her maiden name. For someone who is so keen on posting from the banal to excruciatingly awful reels it's odd she has no online time line before. Where I'm blocked by the pair of them I can't see how far their SM goes back or when their accounts were created. Murky the pair of them.

I'll pass on a weekend at the Rictus Retreat thank you. I should imagine after booking you'd be forever shaking your shoe trying to get rid of her and her sales spiel of time freedom and 30K Months.

I've been to a new (to me) beauty salon nearby today, lots of fabulous reviews so I thought I'd found the holy grail. Experienced staff, huge treatment range, open 7 days a week etc etc.

Walked through the door saw loads of Clarins, Tisserand and Essie products for sale, then imagine my horror when I turned the corner only to be confronted by an entire shelving unit full of Aloe gloop.

Not sure if I want to go back...

Spongebobette · 17/07/2026 20:10

Urgh

as though FL belongs in the same ‘luxury’ category

I’d let the salon know you won’t be returning as you cannot support a business involved in MLM

on that is a big disappointment. If it's just gloop on offer dob them in. Page 43 of the FL Products Company policy only allows "Service Establishments" such as hairdressers and beauty salons to peddle FL if the products are relevant to or be used in connection to the service provided. So if they are just flogging chug gloop and not skin potions then they are flouting company policy. Now will FL care, no, neither will the bot or salon I don't suppose.

Spongebobette · 18/07/2026 09:26

It will be one of the beauty therapists who’s been persuaded to become a bot ‘alongside’ her proper job

Yawn really is thick as mince. Digital detox but posting a million pictures. FYI yawn, Ironic is under the letter I.

She moans about the over use of AI and then goes and fills her page of AI images of her and Techie...does she really think she's fooled everyone with those images?

Sugarplum48 · 18/07/2026 11:09

She's not the brightest bulb is she!! No amount of filters, photoshop will fix her issues. She has no friends, kids have no time for her, husband is her only social outlet. Quite sad really. Makes sense why the camera is her constant companion

YouOKHun · 18/07/2026 18:27

Another photo of Uber’s youngest asleep in bed. Shared with the world on a post about what a good mother Uber is and how she has had to do it all herself and make all the decisions, (as if she has no responsibility for finding herself a solo parent).

If you love your child that’s good and as it should be but the child is the only one who needs to be sure of it, not a load of strangers on the internet. If only one of the solo decisions she had made was to preserve her children’s privacy instead of exchanging her children for engagement. The children come a close second to what Uber wants and needs - a place to self-congratulate and receive knee-jerk praise and engagement. That comes first and that’s what the post says to me, it doesn’t get across the message she thinks it does. There must be dyed in the wool bots who also find Uber’s use of her children troubling.

Ubers youngest seems to spend a lot of her time sitting in bars.

Her mum uses her all the time for content, whether naked in the bath or asleep, setting up a IG account about her gymnastics.

YouOKHun · 18/07/2026 19:44

@Justdancevanceyes, that’s true about tagging along and hanging about in adult spaces. That insta account was terrible. I see she has now made it private so I wonder if she read the criticism here or if someone else told her to make it private. Or perhaps Insta got a few complaints about it. I don’t think an eight year old should be anywhere near social media full stop. I guess the other parent has no input.

I don't have a dog but normally people that do have have like a grill divider to keep them separate and safe. Surely it's dangerous to travel with an unrestrained house horse on the loose in the back of your car, if she breaks suddenly it will be catastrophic for them both.

Not only dangerous but I think it’s illegal to have an unrestrained dog in a car…..

YouOKHun · 18/07/2026 22:58

I’m always amazed that Yawn, who has a well worn sob story about receiving serious injuries in a car accident, is so willing to travel around without a seatbelt.

I think you know more about this than me @PieonaBarm but I thought driving with an unrestrained dog is not illegal but could be seen as driving without due care and attention and if there is an accident due to the distraction then that could be dangerous driving. She will likely invalidate her insurance as her policy is likely to state that animals have to be suitably restrained, and her pet insurance (if she has any). All in all, expenses she really can’t afford to rack up. Something tells me Yawn doesn’t spend much time thinking about consequences.

Peak midge season in Scotland at the moment btw

HotAsSatansBalls · 19/07/2026 22:00

I am blaming my new varifocals for reading “Peak minge season in Scotland at the moment btw” @Spongebobette 😂😂

What’s going on in Scotland?

Spongebobette · 20/07/2026 13:59

Looks like Yawn and Mr Yawn had a few days away in Scotland - they seemed to set off 5 days ago and got back yesterday, so 2 days on the road and a couple of days in Scotland is what passes for a summer holiday

meanwhile Techie announces she is off on a cruise

Justdancevance · 20/07/2026 19:51

Looks like mini uber was celebrating her birthday in a bar on her device while her mother and sister were downing the drinks.

Rictus says:

It's all cringe - until it f*cking works!

Isn't this just true!

Talking about your business - cringe!
Voice notes - cringe!
Talking on your stories - cringe!
Posting on socials - cringe!

Until...

It works!

I’ve rewritten her post for her:

Covering up your declining business in order to recruit the unaware - cringe!

Pretending caravan weekends are about time freedom and not the desperate scrabble to make some money - cringe!

Having to hurriedly vacate your house and lock away your Temu haul for an Airbnb guest - cringe!

Announcing on social media that your earnings went from £1k a month to £30k a month when it’s perfectly clear it’s complete rubbish - cringe!

Wrapping up piles of presents to imply a large income from Forever Living - cringe!

Having to make sure there is no trace of your husband’s or your own former life in case someone spots a lie - cringe!

Giving piles of presents to your project child to imply Forever Living means you’re a better parent and more “present” - cringe!

Believing you’re fooling the silent audience on social media - cringe!

Pretending you have retired your husband - cringe!

Compromising your child’s privacy for your own ego boost - cringe!

Only your mother interacts with your manic grimacing on social media - cringe!

@HotAsSatansBalls no one wants a nasty bite from a minge!

Yawn’s Scotland trip looks hard going. Was this when she was on her social media detox or was that before she left for Scotland? There are always so many posts on social media when she is on a social media detox, just letting us know she is on a social media detox that it’s very difficult to work out when the inane posts stop and the SM detox starts and ends.

As for techie going on a cruise. This seems unlikely. Does she mean a canal boat trip taking in the discarded shopping trollies and McDonalds wrappers of the Staffs & Worcs Canal? Or a voyage around Yawn’s bot potty?

HotAsSatansBalls · 21/07/2026 00:30

@YouOKHun 😂😂

One of the guest speakers at the Itchen-under-Carridge WI told us a terrifying tale of how one fearsome minge latched onto a haggis bought by a tourist as a souvenir for his mother. It caused havoc in the Lowlands: everyone had to get off the coach. In the end he lured it away with an oatcake before whacking it repeatedly with a copy of The People’s Friend.

YouOKHun · 21/07/2026 01:02

@HotAsSatansBallsIt’s all going on north of Watford isn’t it? What a terrifying tale - no one wants havoc in their Lowlands.

There is a regular article about Scotland in The People’s Friend called Willie’s View - make of that what you will (and I think YOU will make something of it ;).

@YouOKHun @HotAsSatansBalls thank you both for cheering up my morning and my minge!

In other news two not enough lady has offloaded her problematic offering of the same name (fb 17/7). 7 figures, apparently a first! I'd love to know how she verified this. Also driving away from a multi million pound home not true either the garish pad was up for 1.5 I saw the estate agents listing a while back. Apparently shes starting over..... or running away.
