I think clickbait might be lying to me.

Hang on - $country capitalized$? That's where I live! Our flags (we have seven) are done in ASCII art - number 5 will blow your mind.

Seeing behind the curtain.

A few months back I'm listening to Classic FM in the late evening and the honey-voiced presenter is cooing how wonderful that piece of music is to relax into the night after a day at work...

And then she says it again, word for word. 

The illusion is shattered and you know she has probably recorded the whole week's worth of links in the middle of the afternoon from studio somewhere in Central London. 

My personal night time companion is exposed as a just bit of digital tape on which some hairy-arsed engineer has bollocksed up the editing.

Or those emails and letters that start Dear [RECIPIENT FIRST NAME NOT FOUND]...

Today one popped up with the same picture eight times (a youngish woman with an unusual figure). Different caption on each - apparently this [insert town] woman won't let me get bored, and if I remember her I'll be shocked by how she looks now, and she had no idea why the crowd was cheering, and doctors don't want me to know this secret, and people in [insert town] are getting rich using this simple method.

She must be very busy.

I had an email for "Dear [Garage Conversion]" the other week.

I like to code web systems that address everybody as

System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

You can never aim low enough.

I've been called worse.

System.InvalidOperationException?

That's just hurtful!

Sorry.  It's been a long week.  I take it back.

No, you're OK. I'm a bit touchy because Excel keeps shouting "Insert method of Range class failed" at me.
