Kids have always been scared of being awkward and not fitting in, but I can understand why the internet has sent it into overdrive for gen Z. I've had younger people use "cringe" as an insult at me, but I'm too old for that to affect me. I just feel pity that they're so scared of being themselves.

On a more positive note, I know a secondary school teacher who got good results out of saying "Well that's embarrassing" whenever her pupils were being twats.

There'd have been a lot of litter which I feel I'd have seen. Maybe kids wheeled them far away and then fly-tipped and then wheeled them back.

Ooh this is a fun one. I don't think I'm nearly interesting enough to warrant something like that. And unfortunately for them I respect WEEE regulations. Also I think they'd have taken my normal rubbish too if this was the case?

One was paper/cardboard and the other was glass/plastic/metal. Which rules out a bonfire theory. Might do some holmesing tomorrow

Yes, they had to open a back gate and they only took 2 of 4 wheelie bins. Couldn't have been the wind.

 

Some time on Friday/Saturday my 2 recycling wheelie bins disappeared from my back yard. I found them on the back street and they were fully empty. I presumed that the collection day had changed and maybe a neighbour took them out for me. Except it's collection day tomorrow and every neighbour has their bins out and they're all full.

What's happened? Anybody got a clue? If it was just one bin I could guess that somebody needed cardboard or aluminium or was trying to steal my identity. I'd be fine with that. But who would take both?!?

What about serial killing

Are you saying you wrote a song and Facebook secretly listened in through your phone and gave the song to your favourite band and they released it? Because that sounds like you have serious mental delusions. This does not happen.

Soo you need more energy to party and keep up with them BUT the key is finding a young one that doesn't know what a healthy relationship looks like. That way you save on having to put effort into the relationship and support them and all that other stuff you need to do with a mature partner

You can scran some scran (food)

There actually are things keeping that from happening but I don't want to get into it
