Had the misfortune to listen for a short while to some show on Radio 2 this morning. People calling, emailing, etc. with requests and messages for "loved ones".
"Please tell my lovely wife Doris that I love her very much. We have been married for 40 years and she is the light of my life". That sort of crap. Tell her yourself, you stupid old bastard. I (and the rest of radio land) have absolutely no interest whatsoever in hearing the message over the airwaves. That kind of stuff is personal between yourself and your lady wife and frankly the rest of us could not give a flying feck.
Why can't they just play music without all of these pointless, cringeworthy messages? Drives me mad!
