Bikini Kill’s first record was 1990 (checked), Bratmobile had recordings out in 1991, Huggy Bear’s first was 1992 (clearly burnt into brain)

Riot Grrrl (three Rs, take note) UK was over by the time Elastica started getting hyped - I remember a Bratmobile show in London where Frischmann and her friends (various Blur girlfriends before Jo from Huggy Bear started an LTR with Graham Coxon) turned up with crossed-arms body language and new haircuts.
A lot of fanzine kids (my peers, although I never did my own zine because I was employed as a music writer within a year of leaving uni) started Riot Grrrl in the US; the dedicated zines and Bikini Kill’s first recordings came out in 1991 - the Revolution Girl Style Now cassette. The first group not of the scene to co-opt RG was probably Shampoo, who ran a Manics fanzine (so not too far off, really). They had a Girl Power single before the future Spice Girls answered the help aanted ads in The Stage.

Lady whose credit card was declined at the cash register, with a long line of shoppers behind her, decides to 'call the bank and clear this up' as the cashier just placidly looks at her fingernails

I used some “hand sanitizer” at the church and it was the same scent as my old speed stick deodorant

At least it didn't smell like Drakkar Noir which is Satan's piss IIRC.

Two places I regularly go to have doors which only open if you press that button.
