Two adverts (I spent a lot of time in hospital watching television)

I think one was Apple.
Something along the lines of "In order to succeed you need to break the rules."
I thought, "Who is your copywriter? Lance Armstrong?"

And the other was for The Perfume Shop
"Where will we take you today?"
Nowhere. You're a shop.

Would I lie to you, my oldest and dearest friend... if it didn't concern money or sex?

I amuse myself (aMuse, not aBuse, that's a different thread)

The other day, I texted to Twil that somebody (what? who? me???) might bring her flowers at work.

Awesome!

Ha! Well played sir.

Griff 12-13-2015 07:38 AM

Nicely done!

Sundae 12-13-2015 07:45 AM

Apparently you can't say Snowman any more. You have to say Snowperson.
Said completely seriously in my hearing.

I must have missed that memo.

Griff 12-13-2015 07:51 AM

It's apparently illegal to say Merry Christmas here according to the right wing nutters on my bacefook. They must have gotten the same memo.

re: snowman/snowperson - Seriously?

Sometimes we really do focus on entirely the wrong thing.

That'll be the same round robin memo that bans Christmas decorations from Bradford town centre every year

Yes, it's a distraction from the real issues, and turns people off to the subject entirely.

Bruce, you are a genius.
