Over indulging on pizza. I always have to have that extra slice knowing it'll bloat me out

Extraneous hair growing on ears and up nostrils. I mean, WHY?

I feel your pain. My visits to the hairdresser are now determined by my eyebrows rather than the hair on my head. What part of the evolutionary process decided that as you get older what you really need is less hair growing on your head and more growing in your ears and nose. And how is the addition of Denis Healey eyebrows a benefit as you get older?

I take great pleasure in pulling them out, now. Think of them as being as pleasurable as squeezing a big white head and they won’t seem as bad. ?

People who begrudge those living near or below the poverty line any sort of comfort in life.
For example, the number of people trying to shame parents for having a games console or Sky TV, but still receiving the “£30” food packs.
Imagine life as a family in poverty in a year of lockdown without so much as TV or games to play.

Because different people have different ideas over what constitutes poverty.
It is understandable that an older person who grew up in the 1950's might find it difficult to understand why not having those items could, in isolation, determine the poverty line.
When talking of childhood we, all of us, will automatically think of our own as an example. One has only to look at a number of threads on this site to see how clearly people recall their formative years.

It’s a shame people are so self centred.

As I understand it the £30 is supposedly to compensate for the lack of a weekly midday meal at school. At £6 a day that ought to cover the majority a kids groceries.

It does, the issue is the items given to cover a week‘ meals have only cost between £5 & £6 in total, were’s the other £24-£25 gone.
did you see the woman who complained about her free vouchers as she didn't like Tesco!

I did not. But let’s avoid going down the whataboutery route.
it was amazing how many people assumed the food parcels were to cover all meals for the whole family
just making a comment as is my right

As I pointed out on another forum these food boxes aren't just for those on benefits
Anyone in Scotland and England with a kid in reception up to year 2 will get free school meals so will be entitled to those boxes
I'd be entitled to one next year and I'm not on benefits

The people receiving them certainly didn’t, so who exactly were these other people?

£30 is suppose to cover a 2 week period so £15 a week

I hadn't realised it was for all yr2 and below that could get the boxes, although one would hope its only those who need it are asking. my lad (yr2) has school dinners, he loves them! there is not even an option to pay for them, blanket free.
