Depressing how often this is topical, but it's entering our family vocabulary in the same way that 'bin juice = Farage' did about years ago. I shudder to think what new word 2036 will bring.
‘Defecting to the reform party’ is a polite euphemism for telling guests at a dinner party that you need to go for a poo.

“I’d love to hear all about your holiday in Sardinia but first I just need to defect to the reform party”

Can't help but see a comparison with the monarchy. We should abolished the institution for the sake of the country, yes, but also for the sake of the incumbents. I mean... it's not the main reason, but it's very much a valid one.
I despise him and everything he does and stands for and I think he’s a horrible person and should face justice in a court of law

My current personal goal is to internalise that just because I have gotten a whole something I do not have to finish it. I can have a coffee and only drink half of it. I don't know why I find this so hard.

I don’t understand why people attempt to denigrate Hallmark Christmas films by referring to them as “too cheesy”, as if that is a bad thing? I mean, have you *had* cheese? It’s not exactly the insult that you think it is.
