The magazine apparently can't even afford to hire a proper editor to check copy before putting it to print so I wouldn't be surprised if they had to scrimp on who they got for styling, makeup, hair, etc.

In my past life I would've gotten a strip torn off me for letting something like this see the light of day.

So glad you said it first! When I saw it I cringed.

Completely OT: I've been watching the memorial service for Mandela. Obama's speech was superb…what a great orator.

He has such a gift, right?! I remember watching him when he was still a Senator and made his breakout speech at the DNC. I was living in Germany, it was in the middle of the night and my boyfriend at the time and I were glued to CNN International in awe of this guy. Before he came on we were both buckled from exhaustion but he was just electric. Like you just knew he was going to go on to something so much bigger and you were watching it happen right then. Amazing speech for Mandela as always.

This makes me so happy!

There is no way tahan would ever favourite something like this. I thi k you're right, she takes a quick look and favourites or retweets without a second glance, which kind of is her style and her natural reaction. I could kiss you you right now, somename

It was stunning and beautiful. Only Desmond Tutu came close tonight and he was only giving the Benediction ;)

haha I wanted to as soon as I saw it but I didn't want anyone to think I was somehow having a backhanded crack at Jade for it. Mistakes like that pick my ass so badly. It's only been within the past year or so that I've finally managed to not get irritated when I see errors on forums or social media. People are rushed, typing on iPhones, whatever... fair enough. I have no tolerance though for a publication who allows those mistakes to slip through... especially not in a header. Too many sets of eyes should've seen that page before it went out for that to be acceptable. Does my head in.

It really is time that her friend Tully took her in hand though. Her spontaneity isn't serving her as well as it might at the moment.

I agree, absolutely. But I'm just glad the favourited comment doesn't have the seriousness to it like it had initially. For some though, it makes no difference. Fair enough too.

Just to play Devil's Advocate - although I do think [MENTION=35798]SomeName[/MENTION] is probably correct - as the tweet was directed at both Tully and Tahan, Tahan could've favourited it (totally not a word) basically as a haha fuck you to the dude. I've done that. It takes the power away from the person attacking you if you publicly laugh along or even just appear to acknowledge them sarcastically.

I'm still say 30% convinced something happened at some point after they left the house. Although this could all be stemming from Tahan having the chance to see the whole scene of the die in a hole comment and then Jade confronting Drew after. Tim or Tahan would be the ones who'd tell us the deal if someone can get them to talk.

I had a quick read through the accompanying article which you posted in the JA thread. There were more errors in the body of the text. Not good. My reasons for not saying anything initially were identical to yours. It seems we couldn't ignore our inner punctuation princesses.

This is not fun at all, I could be going up to 20 days without anymore Drew and Tully photos and I'll have to put up with updates from Jade and Ed and now potentially Tim and Brydie.

Also, Friday night Tully will be at this and Tahlia as well - if you're lesbian (or willing to pretend) and in Sydney you should totally go, $10 entry before 11pm, $15 after - Doors open at 10pm. 90s themed.

Damn! Not that I know how twitter works it anything, but if that's the case, I can totally see tahan doing that type of thing.

I thought something must of happened too. Just because we can't see what's happening doesn't mean the only things we do know is the only things happening.

After sharing with you my favorite Christmas albums that I own, I had a lot people asking me if I had any vinyl ones that I enjoy. So here you go! : )

does anyone ever rip into Ben for posting this trash (the old records and such) I haven't been bothered to read people's comments

Thi s probably sounds odd, but ben's collections of vinyl and some of the other things he collects could end up being quite valuable. How many people are going to keep their vinyl copies of a Jim Reeves Christmas album?

they might just be, and I think I would actually have more respect if he said he kept showing these because he was auctioning them on Ebay because as it is he is wasting everyone else's time because I and many others don't care about old albums

But he's not wasting people's time. He may be one of the few BB accounts where nearly everyone following is a fan…present company and Mrs B excepted. I have no idea why you bother when you clearly don't like him.
Ben actually smacks of a gentler age…I like him, but I'm not a huge fan. But it's clear reading his twitter that the people who follow him are. It's so harmless i can't work out why it bothers anyone.
