Popsy Clothing Cult #3 Popsy in the Wild!

Tell me you’re from the same city as me, without telling me

Yeah I looked that word up, never heard it in my life and it’s very regional

 

[anniemouse]

Agreed, it all seems rather toxic. I moved on Better Tights, which are indeed better than Snags without all the "me me me, yassss queen" bullshit in their marketing.

Thanks I’ll have a look for those next time I need to buy some.

I get carer's tickets as parent of my severely autistic child. In all honesty it's a godsend as a lot of the time we tend to go to places and not be able to stay as he can't cope, so less money wasted. There's not many advantages to having a disabled child, I'd rather be paying for the tickets and he be able to enjoy the day like a typical child, but that's a discussion for another day. Gummy looks the grabby type to get every bit of attention (for herself) and freebie off the back of her child though.

I have an autistic child too and definitely recognise the Gummy type. They’re always at the centre of every support group and their child is the most disabled yet the most special and plucky out of them all. Nobody else gets a word in edgeways. I’m surprised she’s only got two kids though. Most of them pop out 4/5 for the extra attention and asspats.

I’m worried that Better tights are going a bit Snag. They’ve launched a crap tshirt range. I like their 150 denier black tights and want to buy some more for winter.

I used to love snag tights. Comfy and lasted ages, I’ve still got a couple of my older pairs. But recently the quality has plummeted and I also find their advertising gets on my nerves a bit.
I moved to Better tights too and have found them to be good and much less annoying
Really hoping they don’t turn into snag as they get more popular

 

[JuneJuneHannah]

I didn’t think of it like that. I think I’m just primed to see gummy as a grifter

Gummy is a grifter though.

She has 3 - there is one in his twenties that she had before she met current husband. He doesn't seem to live with them but does appear in photos.
Re tights - I do love my Popsy tights (sorry)!

Someone posted about their skin cancer treatment and this was one of the replies
And of course when they are called out for their ‘advice’ they come back with the be kind arguement

It doesn't have to be one or the other.

My 22 year old cousin was diagnosed with lymphoma this year and he is currently undergoing standard treatment. His mother is giving him vegetable juice and still feeding him meat and whatever else he can eat.

£19.50 for a towel? You could buy a pure cotton one from M&S for £12.50.

Ooh do you use the phrase too?

But that won’t be #popsypretty!!!!

True but it most likely would last longer.

Have we been to the same support group?

 

[AmeliaPevensie]

Yes, but it's really very regional. I was baffled when I went on holiday aged about 14, and called someone a dinlo and they had absolutely no idea what I was talking about

 

[MotorheadLife]

A lot of people don’t know what it means! I was so tired this morning when I saw dinos and thought dinlos! Would suit a lot on that group though.

I’ve no idea what dinlos means but I read it as dildos. And automatically thought of red bob

 

[AmeliaPevensie]

Dinlo education, for all who are not squinnys, unlike Gummy

 

[Queenofthesea]

Had no idea they had been together so long. Now waiting for my feed to fill up with other similar pictures from the Popsy sheep!

We say this too! Although I'm not from a city, just a very large town lol.

 

[Donniedonkey118]

No idea of dinlo or squinny? Sounds southern?
Cherish apparently is quite young, she just ages herself with the dresses and wide fitting sandals.

 

[Tui]

Cherish looks so frumpy in a lot of the dresses . I think she’s only a year older than me

I think all the dresses I’ve seen look frumpy, it’s the old lady length of mid-calf I think.

I have a Fatface cord pinafore I like to wear to work but I’m paranoid it’ll make me look like I’m just a rainbow and unicorn away from being popsypretty now.
