Walking to the ballot box with my mum to vote together. Chatting merrily.
Weather: lovely sunny, warm-ish spring day
Brain: Yo, how about we play a nice background song?
Me: Sure, why not!
Brain: * softly playing Imperial March *
Me: Oh, ha ha. Very funny. Next song.
Brain: * continues playing * Nope 😘
Me: DUDE!?
Brain: * increases volume as the distance diminishes *
In the voting booth.
Me: Pal, buddy, mate. I can’t hear myself think. Can you lower the volume?
Brain: * IMPERIAL MARCH BLASTING AT TOP VOLUME * HA! CAN’T HEAR YOU OVER THE SOUND OF OUR INDEPENDING DOOM :) :)) :)
Me: I’m voting for the lesser evil! For the candidate that doesn’t idolise TrumPe(n)ts!
Brain: * STILL BLASTING IMPERIAL MARCH AT TOP VOLUME *
Me: Sod it.
Takes the vote. Hands in the paper. Radio silence.
Me:
