Spain’s 'pineapple-gate' sparks hopes of romance and shop chaos
 

I'd hate to be single :worry:

Mercadonas are one of my favourite places on this planet

I’d have two coconuts and a banana in my basket

:joker:

Tbh how desperate are some people to find love?

Modern dating seems horrible. Glad I am married.

Back in my day we just used dating apps, none of this modern day pineapple technology .

…swipe right with Apple but for pineapple…?…

…they sell lovely small crates of fruit and I’m pretty sure that I’ve bought a pineapple there as well at times…I would never put anything upside down in the trolley, though…/OCD….

I'm glad that I'm single at this point.:laugh:

Or Facebook it seems.

They actually have a dating section on their website, and I wish that I was joking.

…yeah I guess it’s also about whether you’re looking for hunks or looking for chunks…

Or a slice of the action

Why not all three?

I always bring my "lucky pepper" when I go to the local Lidl



I can cause quite a flap down the non-perishables aisle

2 watermelons and a cucumber for me.:cheer2:

4 cumberland sausages and a pint of milk for me.

Yes, me too. But I think if I was single, I wouldn't be trawling round a supermarket looking for love. I think some people just can't be alone.

Probably get a lot of men coming your way

Yes Very True

its a bit of fun I guess, not great if you are trying just to do your shopping though, Consum would never

Especially if you actually wanted a pineapple and accidentally put in your trolley upside down.

I would be beating them off with my handbag :laugh:

:joker:

Yup. It's either there's no spontaneity or it's people trying to be a meme... well I guess I'll be single forever, then :laugh:

It's totally worth finding your person. That much I can say. I just think (from my point of view, anyway... massive of grain of salt, etc), life is way too complicated now. It's complicated relationships, friendships, every aspect of "doing stuff"... there's more barriers for entry that make the opportunities for sporadic "socializing" more difficult... so people now create these planned sporadic socializings :laugh:... I'm waiting for the day when breathing air costs money too. I can see the young really feeling that. It's almost like life is becoming an amusement park for "old people" (an exaggeration, I mean people 35+) who have higher incomes already where everything is priced as such (just for entry...)... meanwhile, children and younger folk are being left behind. And yet young folk desperately need independence, and should be encouraged to have it early, but it's near impossible to achieve that. And in American particularly, we have our homes sized and structured as such where kids can squirrel away for hours on end never seeing another person... by the time they "get away", it's too late, the incentives are not there and it's much harder to experience that personal growth... it's convenient if you're a techy/loner type though. :laugh: I moved out a day after I turned 20 (with now hubby) and I credit that for so much of my personal prosperity and cherish my independence to that extent. Even though I worked and struggled for a lot of that time after. Anyway, random brain dump and it may have no bearing on anyone's life here... but I do feel sad about the opportunities that seem less now to "get out" and just enjoy being young people, on the whole... then they won't be social weirdos at 30+ acting out life's romance on the internet for a quick bit on a livestream... TLDR: blah blah blah

I'm just trying to picture finding my person.

It probably means one of two things.

1. They're ****ed up like me lol.

2. They're going to try to change me, and thus pissing me off.

I could see either outcome being possible.:laugh:
