I’m watching the C4 ‘Paula’ documentary and at the age of 37 I have literally JUST discovered THIS VERY SECOND that the band INXS is supposed to be pronounced like ‘in excess’ rather than ‘inks’ as I’ve been pronouncing it forever
why didn’t they put a gap or something between the IN and the XS
look lads, instead of blaming me here how about we blame whoever didn’t put a gap between the IN and the XS ok
just a quick update, my bf has been in another room with the Man City game and just came in saying ‘did you really not know that? I thought you were joking?! Jesus fucking Christ Sorcha. you just sit there, I need to go rethink my life choices’ and left with his head in his hands
further update: seconds after he replied with this but before I’d seen this, my bf ran into the bedroom to say ‘I just want you to know that I love you’ and then stood giggling, and watched me as I read it
every time someone likes or comments on this I start off honking again. I am a very intelligent woman, I am very confident in my intelligence, and I also have reached the age of 37 confidently calling this band Inks. sure look if you can’t laugh at yourself what’s the point

just two Irish lads in Scotland here watching Ireland play Scotland, that’s me and @IndyisComing23, pray for our neighbours
he’s had to run out to get work keys for tomorrow and I’ve been told if the game starts before he gets back I have to send him commentary ‘in the style of the DUP in political negotiations’. those of you familiar with my Man City commentary might hope he’s late back
