Sorry, this is not the type of music that I like, lol. At least you tried though.
People who prefer the darkness don't like sunshine songs. It's par for the course. :)

I get aggravated when I have to go shopping for groceries. People, by and large, are so inconsiderate. Turn the corner to go down an aisle, and someone will be ahead of me, walking down the middle of an aisle, then stop right there...and stare at the soup selections like a monkey doing a math problem. No...don't have any spacial awareness...just stop right there and hold up traffic while you decide which brand of chicken soup you want...and then act shocked that there is someone around you or act shocked that you...just somehow wound up blocking the entire aisle.

That's the type of behavior that makes me do the bulk of my shopping, when I can, after midnight. At that time, I only have to deal with the other shut-ins, and the shut-is are far more polite and considerate than "normal" people.
oh the luxury of on line grocery shopping, especially at Christmas - what bliss it's almost
better than chocolate.

I hate popping balloons too. My Daughter loves to make animal balloons, she knows I hate the squeaky sound they make and I am afraid they'll pop, she thinks it's hysterical.
Can't you ground her for doing it within earshot of you?

"I'll call you."

An hour.

Two hours.

Four hours.

Can I go to the bathroom now, and I'm not flushing the toilet when the person calls?

Six hours.

NEXT day!!!

(Also works for "the package is coming on Tuesday" and "We'll fix it later today.")

An old friend of mine moved from a "pop" state to a "coke" state. In the US, regionalism has us calling fizzy cans of liquid refreshment three different things:
1. Soda
2. Pop
3. Coke (Everything is Coke. Lemon-lime is Coke, Cherry is Coke, Grape is Coke. Dr. Pepper is Coke.)

She wanted a cherry-coke. You know, Coca-cola with a little cherry in it. Couldn't get it for a month or two, because every time she asked for a Cherry Coke they kept giving her Cherry soda. Worse yet, they knew another word for coke is soda, but she kept calling it pop, and they never heard of pop. lol

And then there are the soda pop people. The thing that kills me is it is ok and normal for the soda pop peeps to call it "soda" (almost like an endearing nick-name), but they totally think it is NOT ok if I call it "pop". And yet Elizabeth can go by either Eliza or Beth! :D

Over here it's all called pop, or soft drinks (as opposed to alcoholic drinks)
You wouldn't hear the word soda.
