Seasonal depression, but instead of the four times a year you’re supposed to get it, you get it around 160 times a year because the weather can’t make it’s mind up

Mines horrendous. The difference in my average mood on a sunny day compared to an overcast day is almost worrying.
By no means do I think I have depression, but the weather has a huge impact on my overall day
LadyNajaGirl@reddit
Could have written this myself. So true. And the pressure headaches from the weather not being consistent enough. Pick a season already 😩

Everyone thinks the awkward British conversation is always about the weather, but in my experience it almost invariably becomes about comparing petrol station prices.

The decline of fingering.

Folk upgraded and now they take the whole arm.

Literally had a butlins weekend and we had a "bring back fingering" chant

i think a lot of british people feel trapped, especially if they didn't grow up in the cities. the destruction of social mobility in this country has confined a lot of people to the towns they were born in, especially young people. I think thats why a lot of folk are travelling out to asia or australia. It's more financially viable than trying to move to london or manchester

Many people here apply for social housing as soon as they can, then live with their parents for a decade until they get offered a flat. Renting privately in the area you were born in isn't feasible unless you're a couple. You cant move because you would lose your social housing.
Odd-Paramedic-3826@reddit
I never even applied for social housing. I hate where I live too much to put up with the decade of waiting
