oh my days such a n00b

Pi.R^2 31-07-2023 01:52 PM

I'm waiting to see what reason Beckie gives tbh!

nonperson 31-07-2023 01:59 PM

Intriguing.

Cacoethes 31-07-2023 02:03 PM

I genuinely can't remember!
I thought taylor swift, but then i remembered that jenna was actually furious that taylor stole it XD

not_so_insig 31-07-2023 02:44 PM

Hello all. I have returned from my nurses appointment at the gp. Got to do it again on Wednesday. But I have coffee tomorrow with my friend so I am looking forward to that.

What? Taylor Swift? I have zero recollection of this!!

In my memory, it was my friend (not from here, controversially) who used to say ?jpgs or it didn?t happen? when I said I was doing anything and then it just sort of became a thing. But I didn?t want to:
a) be so bold as to suggest that I?m the one who brought it to RYL in case I?d remembered incorrectly
b) admit that there?s no particular reason for it, it?s just a thing we do!

long road 31-07-2023 03:09 PM

I napped and I am still tired. I am definitely some kind of ill.

I remember jpegs or didn't happen being a big thing in the uni student thread (RIP). So it may have originated from Jenna.

Pi.R^2 31-07-2023 03:56 PM

<Minute silence for uni student thread’s unnecessary demise>

tamobhuuta 31-07-2023 04:07 PM

Sorry you're not feeling well LR.

My neurologist appointment has been moved to tomorrow!

tamobhuuta 31-07-2023 04:08 PM

Pi, it's our fault for leaving uni.

Cacoethes 31-07-2023 04:21 PM

I think possibly a Taylor swift song had 'pics or it didn't happen' in it?
Many years ago.
But idk. We all know how unreliable my brain is XD

'Pics or it didn't happen' is or was a big Internet thing though. Still see it in some places.
So i guess jennas friend just shortened it to jpgs?

The tattoo is complete and it is epic!
Will send a pic/post a pic when i can take the wrap off

tamobhuuta 31-07-2023 04:23 PM

*is intrigued by the tattoo*

long road 31-07-2023 04:24 PM

I think I may have yet another nap. Partner has been and picked up iron tablets GP prescribed. Although weirdly he said on Friday I could take them if I wanted to?? Like usually with meds it's I prescribed you should take it. But this seemed more optional.

Glad neurologist is happening early Tamo, hope it goes smoothly. And thanks for the sympathy.

long road 31-07-2023 04:26 PM

P.s. Beckie is ninja and I am inpatient for tattoo jpegs!

Cacoethes 31-07-2023 04:34 PM

Maybe your iron was only slightly low?
Idk. I guess most medications are optional, technically, especially supplements!

I think i have to keep this on for another hour or so

nonperson 31-07-2023 04:40 PM

Maybe what he meant is that you can raise your iron levels in other ways if you don't want to take tablets. They have some funny side effects too and foods you can't/shouldn't eat after so many hours of taking them.

The jpg story isn't as good as I thought it would be =(

Cacoethes 31-07-2023 04:43 PM

Iron tablets majorly messed with my stomach
Never again!

Lol!

Pi.R^2 31-07-2023 04:56 PM

WELL SORRYY-YYY

nonperson 31-07-2023 05:12 PM

I had no issues on them at all!

Jenna, at least I no longer need to wonder about it. =)

Cacoethes 31-07-2023 05:42 PM

I literally sh*t myself on the way home from work thanks to flippin iron tablets!

I have sent the jpg to jenna, so she is free to distribute to whoever wishes to see it!

one_step_closer 31-07-2023 05:50 PM

Just saying hi. So behind with everything. Miss you all. Being on here on my phone hurts my wrist. Fingers crossed i get my macbook back tomorrow.

nonperson 31-07-2023 05:56 PM

Big hug for you Lindsay if you want it.

Jenna has sent me the picture! It looks great, so delicate =)

Cacoethes 31-07-2023 06:20 PM

Fingers crossed for macbook!
Hope you're ok lindsay!

Thanks np! I love it :-D

Pi.R^2 31-07-2023 06:24 PM

Linsdayyyyyyy, I’ve been missing you!

Elmer 31-07-2023 06:30 PM

Why has nobody sent me any pictures?

I realise I frequently post in here and then immediately forget I did so, but I still need pictures!

Elmer 31-07-2023 06:30 PM

*crosses fingers for macbook return*

Cacoethes 31-07-2023 06:34 PM

Lio XD
I'll message you on insta if that's ok??

Elmer 31-07-2023 06:35 PM

Yesss!

nonperson 31-07-2023 06:51 PM

Shoulda just posted it on here =P

Cacoethes 31-07-2023 06:53 PM

I don't know how to!

Cacoethes 31-07-2023 06:55 PM

Have sent it Lio!

It was easier when photobucket existed. I happen to have been browsing lots of old RYL drama and we certainly has no problem posting jpgs back in the day but now it?s pretty much impossible!

Cacoethes 31-07-2023 08:17 PM

Yep!
Otherwise I'd be spamming the compliments thread with my newfound confidence and need for validation XD

nonperson 31-07-2023 08:21 PM

Imgbb seems to work alright?

Zurg 31-07-2023 08:41 PM

Dang!!! I wanna see too!!! >_>
I gotta get you guys on Facebook so i don't miss out on vip events/happenings!!!

Also, i now have a sore throat, a runny nose and a beginning cough. I am SO done with summer illness!!!! :(

Lindsay, i am praying and crossing my fingers for your MacBook. Don't die on us, soldier!!!!

Cacoethes 31-07-2023 08:45 PM

You doooo!
Add me if you like! I can pm you with my full name.
Even though there's not much point in hiding it because i have 99% of ryl on social media anyway XD

And some random troll made a thread and used my full name once. That was funny!

That sounds so grim zurg. Many good vibes for a quick recovery for you!

long road 31-07-2023 09:13 PM

I just upload pictures as an attachment. Works pretty well.

Lol, VIP events!! One time we did meet the ?queen? tbh so maybe that?s a fair assessment

Also I think I remember that Beckie! Wonder how they got your full name!

long road 31-07-2023 10:15 PM

I have physical jpegs of when we met the *cough* totally real *cough* Queen.

Cacoethes 01-08-2023 06:22 AM

I have a feeling it may have been a disgruntled ex who years later admitted to hating me at the time XD

I remember that! I was late so didn't meet the definitely real queen, but i was present at that particular event!

Morning everyone!

nonperson 01-08-2023 08:20 AM

Morning all

Pi.R^2 01-08-2023 08:26 AM

As if you missed the queen! I just rewatched the commemorative mpg of that event and it was such a throwback!

Yikes, that's one disgruntled ex =S

Morning both! What are you guys up to today?

Cacoethes 01-08-2023 08:34 AM

Morning both!
How are you guys?

Yeah. He wasn't happy.
The post was funny though.
'Paranoid yet, Beckie H?'
As if most of ryl don't know my full name. And as if I'm not paranoid 99% of the time anyway XD

I know! Gutted!
I did win musical chairs though! I got a picture frame as a prize, which i believe i still have somewhere!

I have the gym soon.
I can't wait to troll PT for having covid last week, after bragging many times about never having covid or getting ill :tongue2:
Getting nails off in the afternoon. Sad. Meeting L for coffee after that and glow beatz tonight. And need to do aldi at some point.

You guys up to much?

Pi.R^2 01-08-2023 08:42 AM

I'm OK thanks. Just a bit sleepy and sniffly but typing that has just reminded me to take my morning antihistamine so that will hopefully improve!

I admit I just looked it up and he also posted plagiarised song lyrics and argued with you and O about how he'd written it himself...

Musical chairs :P

Haha, enjoy your trolling! Do you have to get your nails off for a specific purpose or do they just need to come off after a specific time? Aside from bollocking kids for their false nails, I have little false nail knowledge.

nonperson 01-08-2023 09:02 AM

Oh I am sniffly and haven't taken my antihistamine yet either...

Busy day, Beckie. Maybe you can keep the nails and blu tack them on when you miss them.

I'm going to try and do the things I didn't do yesterday... =(

tamobhuuta 01-08-2023 10:05 AM

Morning guys. I remember meeting the Queen. Highlight of my life.

I've got a phone call with my neurologist at 11am and I might watch Casualty.

nonperson 01-08-2023 10:42 AM

Pics or it didn't happen.

Hope the call goes well, tamo.

Cacoethes 01-08-2023 10:49 AM

Hope the antihistamines do their thing!
I've been getting really itchy eyes lately. I think it's sympathy hay-fever because L gets it quite badly! I've never suffered with it before i don't think!

Ha! Yeah.
He actually messaged me years later wanting to go on a date again.
Hard no.

They end up growing out and coming off themselves after a while. So it looks awful when the normal nails grow underneath and push them upwards! And then when they start coming loose, you end up with random different nails.
I'm just getting them off because i can't afford to get another set. I am going to miss them lots :'(
Nails probably need a break anyway, even though gel extensions aren't as bad for your nails as acrylics.

I did enjoy my trolling! He got me back by pranking me later on...
I'm also smug that i can do something better than him because i have far better hip mobility, therefore better lateral movement :-D

Lol! Unfortunately blu tack is not gonna keep them on!

Hope you manage the things np!

Morning tamo!
Good luck with your phone call!

omd you guys are so cute, sympathy hayfever :P

Well, I'm off out to visit my friend who has a new baby. I had to text my mum for tips on appropriate conversation for such a scenario as this is not something I'm familiar with :P

Hope you all have a nice day!

Cacoethes 01-08-2023 11:03 AM

Ugh. Babies!
Hope you enjoy your visit!
I remember you and Jodie sent Jas a really cute outfit when she was born!
