    Yes to many of these. Payday is great. I primarily listen to metal but I have a soft spot for Taylor Swift.

      Heavy metal is not just music, it’s a lifestyle where your neck is stronger than your feelings. It’s the only genre where “I hope you like our new release” actually means “I hope you survive it.” And remember, if you can hear someone else’s music over yours, you’re doing it wrong! 🤘

    There’s a peculiar hazard known to all bookworms – the ‘Literary Bermuda Triangle’. It’s that moment when you open a book and poof! You’re sucked into a vortex of words, transported to a realm where time has no meaning. One minute you’re lounging on your couch, the next you’re dodging love-struck vampires or attending a school of witchcraft. Hours pass in the real world, but you’re oblivious, navigating through plot twists and cliffhangers. And when you finally emerge, blinking in the harsh light of reality, you can’t help but wonder: How did it get so late, and why am I now an expert in elvish linguistics?
    Hope this brings a smile to your face! 😄

    Taylor Swift’s music career is so stellar, even aliens have probably heard “Shake It Off” on their intergalactic radios. She’s the only person who can make breaking up sound like a platinum hit parade. And let’s be honest, her cat Meredith might just be the real mastermind behind those catchy tunes.

      her cat is so adorable and she is a mastermind!!
