Is there anything around today, that you consider, has been accorded far more gravitas than it actually deserves.

Football maybe?

Fashion - I'm thinking of catwalk shows where solemn face c'lebs gather and gawp as if they are about to experience the second coming. Instead of some emaciated person parading up and down in a stupid frock!

Sleb culture in general and those TV producers who promote such crap. Talentless self promoting ejits.
Botoxed, lip plumped. boob enlarged, and of no consequence to anyone but their own vanity.
I think I am feeling a bit critical today. ????

Why did I get ?????marks instead of those emoticons?

I actually think that's a really bad idea and will lead to even more online bullying.

As you were...

I think Facebook itself is already responsible for virtually all online bullying Ana. I know what you mean though.

I have no opinion either way on the merits of the button, but for the life of me can't think why it's on the news - even on the World Service overnight!

Rather like all the breathless with excitement news whenever Apple has a new phone on the market.
