Do you feel pressure to wish all of your friends a Happy Birthday on Facebook?

Do you keep track of who wishes you a happy birthday on social media?

Anele: A friend isn’t speaking to me cos I didn’t wish him happy birthday on social media

Alex: I use my birthday reminders on Facebook to unfriend people

In case you’ve been living under a rock: Who is Karen?

According to Wikipedia: Karen is a pejorative term used in the Western world for a woman perceived to be entitled or demanding beyond the scope of what is considered appropriate or necessary. Depictions also include demanding to "speak to the manager", being an anti-vaxxer, or having a particular bob cut hairstyle. The 90’s equivalent was ‘Becky’. 

That got us thinking, who would you say is the male equivalent of Karen?

What is the male equivalent of being called “Karen?”

Anele: For me it’s Jared & Sibosiso

Alex: For me it’s Brad

Anele & Frankie: It has to be ALEX!

When did you find out you had shrunk an inch or two and did you argue with the doctor or nurse who was measuring you? People are surprisingly sensitive about how tall they are and you'd be amazed how young we start losing a little of our height.

ANELE: I was 1.72m, I am no longer that height

ALEX: Fighter pilots are 5cm shorter when they get ejected from their plane

According to NASA, most astronauts grow about 2 inches (5cm) while they're in space because the reduced gravity causes the fluid between vertebrae to expand. They lose the height within 10 days of returning to Earth's crushing gravity.

Between age 1 and puberty, most people gain about 2 inches in height each year. You generally stop growing taller after you go through puberty.

Have you gotten shorter the older you’ve gotten? How much shorter are you? Does it depress you that you going to get shorter?
