Praise You by Fatboy Slim. I hate that song so much I have to turn it off whenever I happen to come across it. It’s the drawn-out repetitive tones.
I feel sorry for them, because the Discworld books have been such a source of fun for me over the last 30 years.
Drive-thru surgery.
I wasn’t sure I would like the system, but it seems like a good match for a Discworld game.
“A meteor hit your car. I predict this will have a negative impact on your work life this week.”
