EXTREMELY VISUAL GIF COMING UP.
3. “Don’t wash that / put that in the dryer.”
… Which has results in many a sprint out to the dryer to avoid a ruined jacket/dress/top.
4. “Don’t sit on a cold step.”

5. “Bring a jacket.”

6. “Don’t put that online.”
Someone could have done with telling Zoella that ha? Amirite?
In fairness, she usually says this in relation to photos taken of her, which we also ignore around the time of birthdays and Mother’s Day for Instagram likes.
7. “Don’t put the knives into the dishwasher upside down.”

10. “Turn off your phone before you go to bed.”
“Or at least put it on silent!” she pleads as your eyes continue to turn into squares.
11. “Wear a high vis vest if you’re going out, the nights are getting very dark.”
Listen ma, if I’m not going to wear a jacket, what makes you think I am going to put on a fluorescent waistcoat? No THANKS.
