Speaking of which , when you’re a leftard nuance is a foreign concept and even saying you love baths is bound to offend someone and you’ll need to issue a grovelling apology

Shame she deleted it. Easily the best thing she’s ever written. If she replies “Oh fuck off. It’s funny and you know it you humourless pricks” then I’ll even buy one of her albums.

@jegga I saw that article and thought no need to post that. Jeg will all over it.
There's a joke somewhere in there about it getting sand out, but damned if I can think of it right now.

Hot and moist would certainly be preferable to sandy.
I was going to tell myself off for lowering the tone, but actually Stuff already did that (lowered the tone, not told me off).

@mn5 I have yet to hear of a single Gwyneth health thing that hasn't been slammed by medical professionals everywhere. As for munting a delicate eco system with steaming, my opinion would be a hard no.
Good to know. I'll cross it off the Xmas list for the mrs.

Don't be too rash. It may well impress her and it's not like a few herbs are expensive. Just saying.

It’s a self cleaning oven according to Oprah . She has a woman around a couple of times a week just to make sure though.

Must be a slow news day as one of these articles popped as they are prone to every now and then . Some beardo who faps over Jacinda tweeted out his impressions of us and it’s enough for a news story .

@jegga yeah I read that...some of the comments are interesting...He does like to push some controversial views.
the incidents he cites sounds pretty shit TBF.
My old neighbours used to accuse me of being racist at 2am!

I love Taika's movies, but fuck me days we need to stay far away from the celebrity opinion is THE opinion crap. Butchering the pronunciation of place names is a pretty damned weak example of racism, I have to say. If you are fluent in the language you are always going to pronounce words of that language better. It's not fucking rocket science.

Add in he's probably talking a lot about people of my parents generation, who flat out weren't taught Maori.
If you have called it Teaw-poe, or Teau-wrong-a, or kaddie-kat, your whole life, it's pretty hard to change. Most people of my age seem to make an effort to pronounce it correctly.
