I’m torn. I’ve been going with video game music for all the bumpers, and The Buzz is so short I wasn’t really going to give it one. But…it’s so catchy.
And by at the end, I mean halfway through. lol
Yes to buzzsawing cell phones in line! I hate getting stuck in grocery store lines behind people talking on their phones while emptying their carts one…item…at…a…time. It’s even more maddening when they have upset/antsy children in tow.
That’s true. I mentioned grocery stores for the exchange with the cashier, but the cart unloading thing is even worse than that. Another one: at any register when someone is trying to pay but can’t find their card/cash in their wallet because they only have one hand free.
Sorry for being so late to the game (I’ve been busy!), but Sean’s mother should have been mortified. That’s a horrible story! Sean should write a thank you note today to that friend. Troublemaker!
Oops…. and I still can’t spell Shaun’s name correctly. Now he likely hates me.
We’ve had discussions about that in the past (he could see the name in the ID3 tags when you sent us edited episodes), and it seems like Shaun may have forgiven you. But…I don’t dare speak for him.
