A few amusing timesavers, today, just for fun. (Still a bit flu-ey.)
- Christmas films. They always turn out fine in the end. Even in July.
- The guy they arrest at 40 minutes into a US crime drama never, ever did it.
- The man/woman witness they talk to briefly at the start of said drama, and never see again? If they did it in something else, they did it in this one.
- If you had to wait the correct amount of time for a DNA result in NCIS you’d still be sat there watching it next week. If they aren’t busy.
- Ask any copper how much fun it is to see Special Agent Gibbs have a full prosecution file in by the end of the shift that started with that murder.
- In NCIS, they often phone their office and ask them to send an ambulance. WTF??? Phone ‘em yourself!
- ‘Trending’. People follow trends, they seldom ‘lead’ them.
- #Overusing #hashtags #that #no-one #will #ever #conduct #searches #on #is #annoying.
- The time you spend touring shops to get better deals. How much petrol did you use??
- How much time and data does it take to upload a picture of your dinner and the associated witty bon mot? Amusing nobody in the process.
- How many hours did you spend watching I’m A Cooking Celebrity Skating on a Love Island in Chelsea Shore last week?
- Pop Stars. If your song intro is long enough for an ‘ooooooohhhh’ and a ‘yeeaaah’ and a ‘mmmmmmmmm’ it’s to flipping long. Shorten it, or just shut up.
- LinkedIn users. See that quote by Richard Branson that has 1 billion likes? I’ve bloody seen it and so has 1/6 of the population of the planet. Do NOT share again.
- How fiddly is it to pick up your phone when in a rush, only to ring someone to say, “I’m just entering your building”?
- Move along, no more to see here.
