AH!! OHYMACTUAL!!
Was working today (just like pretty much every other day) and i'm slowly losing my mind. I get so wound up by one of the adverts that plays intermittently between songs. It's advertising the new homeware collection, which is (inventively) called, wait for it... Maison. Wow. Interesting stuff, huh?? But what REALLY gets to me is the way that in all the adverts it's inexplicably pronounced the way an english person would say 'mezz-onn' rather than sounding in any way like the french word.
Either i'm really sad and pedantic or, actually, no. I'm just really sad and pedantic but still...
