Yeah, these kind of posts always feel kinda mean if it's not him that's put that caption.

People who aren't conventionally attractive are allowed to have a sense of style and wear fun clothes too.

Everett True wouldn't put up with this shit

It's also just commonly done in UK newspapers. Age and familial status is always given. Terry Pratchett made a joke about it in one of his books, though I can't remember the quote.

Edit: found one (not exactly the gag I wanted but CBA to look further)

'Exc--' he began. But the citizen's eyes had already detected the notebook. 'I saw it all,' he said. 'Did you?' 'It was a ter-ri-ble scene,' said the man, at dictation speed. 'But the watch-man made a deathdefying plunge to res-cue the old lady and he de-serves a med-al.' 'Really?' said William, scribbling fast. 'And you are--' 'Sa-muel Arblaster (43), stonemason, of The Scours,' said the man. 'I saw it too,' said a woman next to him, urgently. 'Mrs Florrie Perry, blonde mother of three, from Dolly Sisters. It was a scene of car-nage.'

Some plants the flowers are very pretty, but the whole plant isn't practical to be kept indoors (e.g. roses), and they don't necessarily flower all year round. If someone has a favourite flower or favourite colour of flower, it makes them feel special when someone thinks to buy them for them (they get a flower they love to look at for the next week, and they know that someone cares about them enough to buy them flowers, and keep the knowledge of which like).

That's fair enough. I guess I see it as if I'm happy enough to eat off rinsed plates from the dishwasher, I'm happy enough to eat a rinsed fungus.

Mulled cider is fucking banging. You're missing out if you've never had it

Jammy. Real pain to clean, though I've heard you can do it in a dishwasher on cold without the soap

I would guess they were using this as a rhetorical device to emphasise how much they dislike Trump. I don't think they're actually planning on voting for the guy

There's a pretty obvious difference between a kid who's 12, and someone you could reasonably mistake for being an adult (UK age of consent is 16).
