I deleted the ticky tocky after a bunch of children started abusing me and sending me death threats for daring to have a different opinion. I unfortunately just replaced it with youtubey shortypantses though

[–] LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 4 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Finally someone else who calls it the ticky tocky. I also like Tik Toxic.

YouTube Shortypantses, I'm stealing that one.

It reminds me of toc-tick from the phantom tollbooth.

I need to reread that book…, it’s been a long time

[–] Baku@aussie.zone 3 points 4 months ago

I call Facebook "facky backy" too, fun to confuse people with that one

[–] StudChud@aussie.zone 4 points 4 months ago

I havent deleted tiktok, but I don't use it after noticing my ex has an account. I didn't realise it notified you when you look at someone's profile.... So I got a nasty message from them hahaha

Grateful to still live rent free in their head lol don't think they realise I still got allllllll the receipts 😂

Also grateful for the Sun 🙌

Grateful for getting to end on time today, no nasty emails, and for the beautiful sunshine after a grey morning!

Grateful for having enough time go for a walk and then come back to cook up more delicious dinners.
