I'm thinking this one might get me some earache, but I have to say whenever one of those 'why do you deserve to win' questions come up it irritates the whatsits out of me when people site weight loss as a reason, for pretty much any prize! I mean it's great and all that people have managed to shed poundage... but on more than 1 occasion I've been tempted to put my reason as I deserve to win because I've been responsible & haven't put on a huge amount of weight by eating too much and sitting on the couch, so don't have any to lose! _party_ I appreciate it may sound flippant which is why I've always refrained.
In reality not everyone commenting this reason must have had massive weight gain through illness/post baby etc, which are of course valid & often non avoidable reasons for weight gain, so let's be real here, using the self inflicted blubber growth, then losing it and claiming it as a reason to win just seems a bit off to me... How about living and eating sensibly & not putting it on to start with, that's the best prize right? :T *I'll await an ear bashing :rotfl:0 -
If I saw that I'd be tempted to leave the number for refuge/womens aid under the post as a reply to it.

She's even tagged a couple of friends and even admitted that it's 'shameless'. I'm not impressed with that at all.

Yesterday there was a post from a woman using her husband's sudden and unexpected death as a reason why winning would 'cheer her up'. Well if unbranded jeans made me that happy I'd clear out Birkenhead Market!Why do mice have such small balls?

To win a cake, like, share and comment "Blues are gone."
Blues Are Gone (although not quite as I have to sit and write a eulogy, prepare an order of service, and other equally sad bits over the next few days) This cake and a few cups of tea would be a perfect way of passing the time as nicely as possible 💖0 -
Did folk have a break during Christmas 'cos it seemed to be really quiet, sob story wise (there were a few gems) and now they have resurfaced with great gusto.
Some of them are getting more inventive, yet even more disturbing.

Somebody has posted a photo of their sick child in hospital!!
There's another poster who put up a photo of their son proposing to his girlfriend. I only mention it because I've seen this photo on several comps recently.
My favourite one was the person who wrote that their pet caterpillar has athlete's foot!!!0 -
OMG they have actually posted a picture of their ill child to try and win £100.

Aww that's almost as sad as my Dalmatian with spots“I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints.” - Billy Joel
