@jamiesmart She's right...but enthusiastically giving over our high streets to the same bland brands speaks to the quality of what was there before doesn't it?
@JohnAmaechi Similarly I don't remember many men being described as a 'force of nature', it seems to be a term reserved for women which kind of takes away their talent and ability and asigns their success to something external.
@jamiesmart I once looked up the number of people who died constructing the Empire State Building, thinking it must be significant considering how precariously workers et their lunch. Apparently it was just five, which seems bonkers to me
