I really hate those haircuts with rat's tails at the back. Yuck I want to sneak up behind them and chop them off. These people are really, really stuck in a time warp. I remember hating them when they first appeared when our oldest was little, he's nearly 25!!! I hated them then and I hate them even more now. And don't get me started on women wearing leggings when they really ought not too. And shopping in your slippers is not a good look either.
Ok fashion rant over.

No, I was just stirring the effluent, seems to have worked to. Don`t take me to seriously, I tend to agree about Way Gives and tasty cheese that isn`t.
