May. 23rd, 2016 08:54 pmMy dad thinks the thermostat on our new boiler isn't working, and it's so hot in our house. SO HOT.
Coronation Street
It's nice that Johnny kidnapped Tracy, genuinely. But he could have killed her. I'm just saying. No-one would have judged.
Injustice of the day: I finally went out and got a Magnum Double Caramel today, as I do every summer when it's warm enough. But magnum have both made them smaller - way smaller than the 'Magnum Classic', which they're still selling - and made them more expensive. I'm pretty sure they used to be £1.60, and now they and the Magnum Classic are £1.99. Unfortunately, they're still delicious, so I'm probably still going to buy them. But way less often than I used to! Take that, magnum.
Feminist injustice of the day: I was coming home on the bus, and saw an advert on another bus for something called Well Woman. For a minute I thought it was to do with the Well Women's Centre, but then realised it was an advert for a supplement, the "No 1 Women's Supplement". And it occurred to me that I'd never seen an advert for a men's supplement. And I have to wonder exactly what is supposed to be so broken and insufficient about women's bodies that they need supplements to fix it. I also saw an Actimel advert tonight, and realised I've never seen an Actimel advert starring a man. Adverts are shit.
