@BreadandButter just curious as to why you have you put ‘🤣’ under literally all of my comments and also other people’s comments.

Not sure what’s funny or amusing about people needing reasonable adjustments or struggling with navigating the application cycle. Likewise not sure what is funny about people getting PFO’s.

I wouldn’t normally say anything like this but I just find it really strange. 🤨
What. Ive not laughed at anyone mate.

Not sure what’s funny or amusing about people needing reasonable adjustments due to their neurodiversity or struggling with navigating the application cycle. Also I’m not sure what’s amusing about people receiving PFO’s and feeling upset about them. I don’t know how going to a comp state school and being a first gen uni student is a funny thing either.

I wouldn’t normally say anything like this but I just find it really strange and insensitive. 🤨

Out of a total of 76 reactions made by BreadandButter as of 17:33, 49 of them are haha reacts. That's 77.6% haha reacts.

BreadandButter is currently on a streak of 20 haha reacts, tied with their previous streak of 20 haha reacts.

It was this or checking Outlook again

    Sorry about this. They are upset that they have been warned about their behaviour in the forum (and sending very hostile messages to our moderator) and they're taking it out on community members. They have now been banned.

    This is quite scary considering they have got SVS offers from HSF and AG! I hope they aren’t like this in real life as well. 😞​

    @Jessica Booker i'm an international student and i managed to secure a spring vac scheme; assuming I successfully convert it, when i apply for the extension of my visa, do i apply for the student one (as i will be studying my SQE 1+2) or do i apply for the skilled worker one (as the firm will be sponsoring the course)
    You will be on a student visa as you are not working until your TC starts.

    you know what you’re doing. you got an AC - congratulations. but don’t forget you’ve also been rejected from applications, and i’m sure you’ve gotten support from the forum.

    what you put in to the world is what you’ll get out of it. don’t let it be bad karma.

    The theatrics being pulled at AC’s to pretend they are super friendly must be crazy! It’s really disturbing tbh.
    Literally!

    This is why I keep a small circle of friends and everyone else at arms length.

    To be in your late teens to early 20s and behaving like this on an online forum is ridiculous. No need for nasty energy like that!

    I’m soo confused 😭 they reacted an unholy amount of laughing emojis and now they’ve been portrayed as if they’ve killed someone 😂😂😂 maybe I’m missing something? 🥴
    It was more to do with the kinds of posts that they were reacting to, not the haha reactions themselves. 🙂​
