YouTube and other streaming services.

When you want to pause the screen goes dark and loads of graphics appear on the screen.  Why? Why do they do this? 

You often pause because you want to look at something on the screen that is now so dark you can't see it even if it isn't obscured by unnecessary graphics. 

Back in the day a couple of small parallel lines in the top corner of the screen was plenty adequate to indicate a paused video. What's wrong with that today?

At no point did they really try and make it fun, which is what I really hate about these things normally.

That’s interesting to know. 

I used to get about 3 spam calls a year.

In the last week I’ve had about 30 spam calls.

Also a WhatsApp audio call from India.

I don’t think I’ve ever received a scam WhatsApp message. 

I’ve received more than my share of WhatsApps that I wish I hadn’t seen from my mates, but never a scam one from anyone, anywhere.

Rocka-buy Records of Oakham Rutland. I have never bought anything from them, but they have a large social media presence so I see their videos, it tends to be favourite albums, tracks, guitarists etc. The guy who fronts it owns a well stocked record shop but his selections are always so bloody pedestrian, it's like his favourite album is the best of the Beatles. I think at times he is a divorced dad that is just discovering vinyl again.

If they are good clean toilets, then everyone is a winner.

I get a lot of spam phone calls. I’d prefer tinned meat face to face.

Does that nearly work?

“Tinned meat” sounds a bit like “to meet”, you see and spam is a type or tinned meat.
