What people actually say.
FND is the only thing in my week that has a clear start time. Genuinely the highlight.
I came for the free dinner. I stayed because everyone actually talked to me. That's rarer than it should be.
Welfare brunch was the first place at uni I felt I could just exist for a Sunday. Cannot recommend enough.
