This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

It’s like 10m long and haven’t been bothered to watch all of it. I guess they just mended their relationship after so many years. I guess at a certain point in life you just say fuck it and go back to what you know.
There is definitely a degree of complacency with the familiar. That said, the guy reviews booze. Booze and relationships can be trouble lol. People say and do dumb shit no matter how “sober” they think they are.
Or you've been abused for so long as well as isolated from all your friends and family, that you're easily manipulated back in to a situation you('ve been made to) feel you can never escape.
You got all that from a scotch review? Damn
Peaty and isolating, with just a touch of domestic violence.
4.5 stars.
First of all, let me introduce you to this little word:
it means one could be, or another could be. It is not an assertion.
Now to the point:
Imagine that, a guy who centres his entire life around booze to a degree that he prioritises recording a booze review for an audience of zero over interacting with his partner that is walking out on their relationship, is setting of some red flags.
Also imagine that - people who have suffered domestic abuse can recognise those red flags from miles away while those who haven't sit there and smugly brush them off. I bet plenty of the people here also say shit like "if it was that bad she would have left" which is why I made my comment explaining why victims of abuse either don't leave or leave and then go back.
But hey, it's all jokes to those of you who think this shit will never impact you personally.
okay
Wow, you are significantly insufferable.
Or two people mended their relationship. Nobody is perfect. For all we know that review could have been after his tipping point. People do weird shit when they feel they can't take anymore. Like reviewing whiskey while your wife is leaving.
Lol ok. Or you're just annoying as hell dude
