Petty Things That Get On Your Nerves...


Recommended Posts

One of my main pet hates is when mainstream media/advertising tries to incoprorate internet culture/memes into their repertoire. A prime example is Virgin media using the Nailed it meme with the toddler. I just saw a VISA advert using 'like a boss'. It reeks of trying so hard and completely misses the point of the natural eveolution of a meme, which is what makes it work the first place. Not to mention by the time they get their material out, the meme has usually been retired.

I hope it's something hilariously witty like Dunroamin or Dungolfin or something like that. I love those ones, they're well funny.

I know a guy who ended up in a wheelchair after an accident who called his house Dunwalkin, kinda got a bit of the "B-sharps" about it.
