So none of them at least contacted you back to give a thanks?

@mamamia-user-482898552 From an article today: "Many viewers have criticised the series for its uninspiring leads, who have been relentlessly promoted as 'country girls' despite the fact they both live in cities."

@laura__palmer I think you meant Biden with the first word.

Can we at least stop with all these joking names for a major surgical procedure? No more "boob job" or "getting my breasts/tits/boobs done"; it's major surgery. A TV show yesterday had a segment on serious side effects women who've had this surgery have experienced. But any major surgery can have serious side effects. Perhaps if we stopped with all these novelty terms people would be much more aware of this.

I don't understand this article. You have no evidence the men said any of these things, and they have been openly denied. You then say they shouldn't have been said, but then openly repeat them all.

@mamamia-user-482898552 The show didn't select 'two "ordinary" girls'. They selected Elly Miles because she was popular on The Bachelor, and her sister for the novelty. Oh, and one of the ladies has publicly admitted to being both botoxed and surgically enhanced - not that there's anything wrong with that.

@laura__palmer You mean like 2016, where the Democrat party rigged  the Primaries for H. Clinton?

@laura__palmer "Biden is about the worst choice the dems could have gone with"

Shouldn't they have a break between Bachelor In Paradise, The Bachelor, The Bachelorette...?

@rush I would assume there is still a version of this employed with some boy bands around the world.

"women wouldn't watch a TV show if they thought the leading man wouldn't be interested in them romantically. They needed the fantasy to fully invest in the show.

@cat "she’s never shown any interest in doing the job"

@geminithoughts You pay utility bills on their due date.

If the President loses the election, wouldn't Melania Trump still be the First Lady until the inauguration?

"The morbidly depressed ... cynical divorced man"

@snorks I think there are many people who wouldn't abuse someone over their race, disability, sexuality etc. but would openly abuse someone who is fat. (I know, because I used to be one of them.)

@cat How many people in Australia have to take out a loan for life saving medical treatment? Isn't that why we have universal healthcare?

@snorks That is the case. (But I assume - somehow? - that is men's fault.)

@em I think the issue with The Block (and really, all these home renovation shows) is that they are not including all the labour costs. There would be an army of tradespeople working on these renovations, all charging a pretty penny, but they always seem to leave that out.
