Show me a phrase more cursed than “HR is thrilled to launch Workday for Microsoft Teams to all employees”.

I’ll wait.

Today is the last day of our holiday in the Otways. We believe in eking out holidays as much as possible, so instead of taking a main road out we took dirt back roads through glorious rain forest before we reached the Great Ocean Road at Lorne.

There was no traffic so we could pull over whenever we wanted to. This is a typical scene on our drive. Throughout our trip we have found the dirt roads in great condition and today was no exception.

Forget the old woman who lived in a shoe: A Michigander in her mid-thirties made a home in a Family Fare supermarket sign for nearly a year, local outlet MLive reported. The unnamed woman lived rent-free and went unnoticed by shoppers and workers until a construction crew working on repairs to the building’s roof stumbled upon her humble abode two weeks ago, Midland Police Officer Brennon Warren told the outlet. “She essentially made it home,” Warren said, describing how officers discovered a cozy apartment complete with desk, houseplant, computer printer, coffeemaker, and a cubbyhole of food. It’s unclear why and how the woman chose to build her nest there; police said she’s employed and turned down housing assistance when offered. When she was discovered, some of the store workers said they recognized her from around the property and that she occasionally seemed to vanish into thin air. They now have a new name for the legendary eave-dweller: “The Roof Ninja.” Authorities and Family Fare are working to help her find a new home.

I watched Unfrosted so that you don't have to.

Seriously, don't.

Seriously unfunny movie.

I can see how this movie would be funny to a huge chunk of America who seem to believe that the 60's was the golden age of comedy, but for the rest of us, nope. I honestly don't know how so many big names signed up to this - did they even read the script?

Tldr; Unfrosted - 1 out of 5 pop tarts.

@ppossej I had not heard ot it so looked it up on IMDB. Jerry Seinfeld wrote and directed, I think there's your problem.
