A'Villan Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Caught a lone bed bug last night. That explains the hive like rashes that I've been getting every few weeks here and there. Hopefully a lone ranger, doubtful though. Reminds me of the time Sterling birds made a nest in my Dad's roof right where my bedroom was. Some microscopic bug managed to cause me excruciating discomfort. Ah well, looks like it'll be a few hundred bucks getting rid of these politicians. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkyvilla Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 I've been playing my guitar a lot to fill the time but I just snapped my G string and can't find my spare ones anywhere. No music shops open so got to wait for delivery. I'm going to be even more bored over the next few days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A snapped G string can lead to greater pleasures than guitar playing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted April 13, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted April 13, 2020 A company best known for making oven chips, doing an advert using the current climate to make out they are some wholesome family enterprise, to sell more oven chips. **** off. **** the **** off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted April 13, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted April 13, 2020 My other half often complains that she doesn’t know why she doesn’t have any money a lot of the time. Doesn’t know what she spends it on. Yesterday I took delivery of something. As she was opening it I asked her what it was. “It’s some serum to put on my eyelashes to help them grow” Weird but fine I guess. I asked how much It was. £45. And that was on sale. When I asked how much you got for that... she answered with 1ml Thats not a typo. One millilitre. ONE! For £45. It must be **** liquid gold or something! Dunno where your money goes? Well there’s a start! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well there’s a start! This came up in a former office conversation with a woman who was up with all the 'beauty fads'. It blew my mind. I didn't get it. Who, who, in their right mind, actually notices whether someone has slightly longer eyelashes? You don't notice stuff like that. You notice eyelashes when they're stupidly extravagant, and thats about it. Why bother? Same woman introduced us to the concept of 'HD eyebrows'. Being a geek, I knew that the HD naming convention was the hallmark of snake oil, but when she explained what it was... HD eyebrows are basically very very dark sharply outlined eyebrows. They look absurd. They look like someone's put some electricians tape over their actual eyebrows. And as ever, ludicrously expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well there’s a start! Some people just have to spend money, its like an illness. They get money, they have to spend it. No concept of saving. I see it with people at work. Earn a decent salary, spent it all every month. Nothing tucked away for a rainy day (or a worldwide pandemic!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good eyebrows are like a good referee in a football match, you shouldn’t notice them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lapal_fan Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Natural almost always outweighs fakery. Shame so many women don't understand that. In my office of 6 women, 3 of them have had Botox, they always talk about plastic surgeries or tucks or plasties. Even with all these things done, they'd still be overweight munters. Can't polish a turd I always say 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was watching some Youtube videos of the Robbie Williams Knebworth gigs from 2003 the other day* and the women in the crowd just looked far more natural than what you see around nowadays. No botox, no trout pout, no butt implants, etc. They were just natural beauties as opposed to the identikit blow up doll look that some women aspire to now. * awaits ghey gif 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
