Devi

I’m in the midlands and never heard that phrase but I have heard taking ice to the eskimos, which might be offensive now.

It’s definitely a fetish.

There are 100% shelters that let you take pets, there’s also organisations that foster pets for people escaping abuse.

The statement about haunting you to the end of the earth is a giant red flag. You need to get away. He’s dangerous.

I’m so sorry. Can you not sell some of the wine? Would he notice if it was a smaller collection? Just a reminder that financial abuse is abuse, control is abuse, there are shelters for people who are being abused which will get you out of that environment.

Head transplant dude?

She’s been found guilty of a crime. They’re doing a retrial on one of the counts but she’s been convicted of seven murders.

I always just go, worst case scenario they were super busy the night before and don’t have any rooms ready so you leave your bags with them and go explore lighter, but most of the time they have a room and let you in.

You can also pre-book early check in but I tend to only do that if I really need it because it costs and usually you can sneak in by turning up.

Because we all know 12 and 13 year olds never have sex. One study says nearly 3000 of them got pregnant between 2000 and 2007 but clearly immaculate conceptions all round.

In situations like this I usually change the subject quite obviously. Like if they’re mid rant go “any plans at the weekend?” or “hey, how did your sons play go?”.

I think it portrays that I’m not interested in their conversation without pissing people off.

Thylacine? aka Tasmanian Tiger.

I saw them in New York! Brilliant!

I went on an alligator boat in Florida and they were cool sure but the Anhingas hunting and catching fish were cooler, I didn’t even know you had those!

But you somehow think people voting normally is organisation? But government led organisation isn’t???

I think you’re confused by what an organised plan is…

Making a country win is way easier than making one lose. You’d have to put in enough votes for every country as you don’t know how other countries will vote.

There’s definitely been an organised plan for Israel, people have spoken about it openly on twitter

I’ve tried to find out if they ever did marry but I can’t find her online. I like to think she did though and it went well because she did really like the picture.

I think you’re confused. That is arranged marriage.

You’re still mixing up arranged marriage with forced marriage.

It’s not dating exactly, but there are dates involved. The parents pick someone that you’re intended to marry, they bring them round and go “here, we think you should marry this person”. You get chatting with them, go out for some dates, in the modern age you’re probably texting each other etc, but it’s not like western dating where you’re just seeing how it goes, you’re deciding if you want to marry.

After a short while you would say ‘yup, this seems good’.

You don’t commit to a stranger really. Normally you’ve met them and spoke multiple times and the families have spoken throughout both kids lives. I had a friend when I was young who knew her intended spouse from 7 years old and there was no plan to marry until she was finished with uni. She used to carry a picture of him in her wallet like we all had boyband members.

Even once you get to the marriage bit there’s chances to say no then.
