Things you want to share with P&B

Couldn't find the YouTube page so thought I'd post here. A guy gave up his job to try and impress his way onto Logan Paul's show. No pals, completely convinced that this would work apparently. The parasocial nature of things like YouTube and podcasts comes up once a year or so but never covered in much detail. The last chat of it I remember was around the bin appetit scandal where people went in on the horrible "reality sitcom" style of conde Nast videos.

Have any P+Bers ever realised they were forming a parasocial relationship? Have any P+Bers quit their jobs to try and join the entourage of a YouTube star? The dearly departed @SANTAN would be good to discuss this with as he liked all those Logan Paul's etc didn't he?

Hassan is very good on this stuff which is ironic given he's part of a podcast network that you could argue is trying to foster the same parasocial relationships bit through political content.

I proposed last Saturday night.
Since then my fiancé has already booked the following:

Engagement party
Wedding date and venue
DJ’s

She has also managed to choose her bridesmaids and maid of honour, and her hen party location.

I’ve not even given any consideration to groomsmen or anything related to the wedding.

Congratulations on ruining your life.

Along with the whole wedding process including the wedding?

Na, regardless of your views on marriage as a whole, Weddings are fucking class. One of the best days of my life if not the best, not because of bullshit romantic reasons, but because almost everyone I care about was in the same room, for us. Brilliant. I dont think iv been to a badabd wedding tbf

Aye I'll never get married but I'll also never turn down an invitation to a wedding, always a decent party and as you say see loads of people you've not seen in a while.

only if you don't compare it to something else, if a married couple told me they'd had both an engagement party and after the wedding a gender reveal party, i'm kicking her fanny and his baws for that reveal shite rather than the engagement do.

She'll organise all that for you, too.

I admit I don't know who any of these people are but the guy on the right looks as if he's being attacked by a shark.

some guy from that karaoke show, the greatest woman on telly {she's has overcooked more gammons than ma maw}, the fastest man ever {even faster than willie pettigrew} some bird they're trying to make popular and a household name {but it just isnt working}  an irish fella called jimmy

Surely that's hee haw to do with her?


I think she’s made a suggestion, but a very strong arm suggestion.

I’ve basically turned around to my pals and said I’m no fussed on the stag, just let me get pissed and watch football.
