Start hiring women please, Doctor Who!
Just had a moment where I realised how much work I’ve actually done this year, was like ‘woaaah, I should cut down’… and then five minutes later I started planning a load of other stuff I could do!
Hey Tumblr why don’t you just go ahead and publish my angsty rants to Facebook even when I uncheck the box. Ta.
TV Weather phrases: Translations
‘Warm front/Cold front’: Used to make vague temperature guesses seem more authoritative without having to be specific.
‘Sunny spells’: Can imply sun without actually committing to it.
‘Area of low pressure’: Cracked out when ‘it’s going to rain’ is no longer enough, and an explanation is demanded, regardless of scientific accuracy. Usually dropped in after a week of rain. Bonus points if it is included alongside a map of pressure points.
‘Jet stream changes’: Appears when the ‘low pressure’ excuse is running a bit thin and needs to be sexed up, usually after a couple weeks. More directly translates to “Well, that’s it for summer then.”
‘Microclimate’: The weather is just as shit as everywhere else, but dropping this in local weather reports makes people feel special.
