I like to imagine someone having this stuck in their head, and singing the irredeemably edited version at work/around the shops, etc.

you just call out my AND YOU KNOW WHEREVER I COME RUNNINGGGGG to see you WINTER SPRING

My worst nightmare, I feel for you. In a similar vein, the ads which make a bit of sense, then after a week are already replaced by the 10 second version which makes absolutely fuck all sense on its own, because any context has been lashed out the window.

there was one recently with those fucking meerkats in a caravan that i guess i never saw the original version of it and makes no sense whatsoever. reminds me of mark kermode describing transformers 2 as a work of dadaist art or whatever it was.

on the rare occasion the tv does the washing up she doesn’t rinse all the soap off the dishes. what the absolute fuck?!

actually forget that, it’s not minor in the slightest :wink:

Being asked if I have a loyalty card and then if I want a loyalty card. It’s the same shop, pretty much the same person that serves me every day that I go in. If I wanted one I would have had one by now. It’s irrational for it to annoy me so much.

Also, related to the posts upthread…when taping something on the TiVo it defaults to recording the HD version. Which takes up loads more room. Watching in HD is fine, but taping uses up all the space.

no point if you’re drying up though

I have just received what must be the most generic birthday card ever printed at work.

That seems like something that shouldn’t annoy you mildly or otherwise

I’m just generating #content at this point m8.

Can’t decide if it’s better or worse than the car-themed one I was given at my old place, when I couldn’t drive, they didn’t know that, and I’d never once spoken about cars to anyone.

It’s really bizarre to me that you get birthday cards from your office at all, is this a normal thing?

Yes, in every* place that I’ve worked as a non-student.

*both

I smell a thread a-brewin’!

Someone’s fishing for a birthday thread!

Funny thing is, it’s not even my birthday!!

Congratulations!
