~~Spice Girls Announce New Album and Full Reunion Tour with All Five Members for 2025~~

~~Seems like yes~~

While I see other sites talking about a reunion and tour, this site is unreliable, see the replies to my comment

[-] TheSambassador@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

I can't seem to visit that site without it completely redirecting my browser to a full screen ad saying I had been "wiretapped", so I googled it, and I cannot find any confirmation of that happening. Every article says Victoria Beckham is still not fully confirmed and nothing substantial has been announced.

Because the marketing team needs you to

"If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends..."

Imagine only fucking someone after they fuck your friends first.

[-] redwattlebird@lemmings.world 17 points 1 month ago

I always interpreted that lyric as 'get along with my friends' but they dropped a word to make it sound better lyrically.

[-] last_philosopher@lemmy.world 24 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I mean the other lyrics really do back it:

So here's a story from A to Z You wanna get with me, you gotta listen carefully
We got Em in the place who likes it in your face
We got G like MC who likes it on an—
Easy V doesn't come for free, she's a real lady
And as for me, ha-ha, you'll see
Slam your body down and wind it all around
Slam your body down and wind it all around

Basically they're walking you through what you gotta do to please each one of them. Baby wants the lingus, Ginger and Sporty by contrast want it on an "e" - i.e. ecstasy, Posh of course only gets off if you buy her expensive stuff first, and only then do you prove yourself worthy of Scary, who will beat the living shit out of you.

Your concise analysis has warmed this reader's heart today, my good fellow

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Some polycules are a delightful collection of nice people, some are as dysfunctional as you might expect a bad relationship to get when you keep adding people, others are barely distinguishable from a cult. This seems to be that last kind

Now this is ~~pod racing~~ a shower thought!

[-] Melatonin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 month ago

I was literally in the shower

[-] SolidShake@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I know right. Finally.

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

You couldtell me one of them is dead, and I wouldn't bat an eye in believing it.

[-] pennomi@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

They all died in a freak longboat accident. The Vikings responsible were never apprehended.

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago

This is libel most foul committed against my people and I thoroughly approve!

[-] assembly@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

It feels like the Vikings are always getting away with this stuff. I mean I can’t recall the last time I read a report where a Vikings was apprehended and/or charged with a crime. I doubt that this Spice Girl incident will be any different :-(

[-] ch00f@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Old Spice was not long for this woeld.

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Ah yes. Baby spice became Teen Spice. Then College Aged Spice. Then Midlife Spice. Then Old Spice. And now she leaves behind her husband, Herb.

Actually all the Spice Girls married different guys all named Herb. That's where the phrase "Spices and Herbs" comes from.

whistles X-files tune

[-] partial_accumen@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

For those that follow motorsports, Ginger Spice's (Geri Halliwell) husband just lost his high profile role as lead of the top rated Red Bull Formula 1 racing team. Yes, she's married to Christian Horner.

[-] Thorry84@feddit.nl 6 points 1 month ago

Imagine being married to a honest to god actual Spice Girl (after ditching your first wife and kids) and still having the need to sexually harass your PA. There is something not right with that man.

[-] Kyrgizion@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Well, his name IS Horner... maybe they dropped an I somewhere.

[-] d00phy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Show the Horndog some respect!

[-] Lemminary@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

The day I found out Piqué cheated on Shakira, I knew there were no saints left on this Earth. I mean, you're with Shakira, am I missing something?

[-] frank@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 month ago

I was hoping this would come up in this thread.

She's stood by him through his sexual harassment allegations (that seem basically undeniably true). Which I find at least interesting, considering he left his first family for the Spice

[-] LadyButterfly@piefed.blahaj.zone 0 points 1 month ago

It was all marketing anyway they were totally manufactured

[-] DrBob@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 month ago

The Spice Girls were real stuff. They were put together but revolted against the producers who were trying to control the group. In an infamous episode they stole the masters for what became the first album and released it themselves.

Oh jeez I thought the whole calling Thatcher girl power thing was just a meme

[-] TachyonTele@piefed.social 0 points 1 month ago

I used to think of Posh Spice in the shower.
Who was your shower thought?

[-] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

Please change it to “thot” please I’m begging you I’m going to have an aneurysm if you don’t d

[-] TachyonTele@piefed.social 3 points 1 month ago

No no no. These are shower thoughts.
Your mom was my shower thot.

[-] d00phy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

The typo the people need.

[-] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

Only if you add the rest of the letters back to "thru" and "nite".

Showerthoughts

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.

Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
