Trivial things that make you happy - Part 3 - The Happyning

I asked ChatGPT to compare some characters from two series of novels, by different authors but very similar subjects that I've been bingeing recently. It made a statement about one character's relationship to another. It got it wrong, stating A is B's mother.

She's actually her younger sister.

"You're absolutely right - ….."

Thanks ChatGPT you made my day!

Don't want to bring politics into this light hearted thread but I do love somebody doing something exclusively as a giant FU to somebody/everybody else. Particularly if said person was scoffed at or something similar.

The Trump situation is the gold standard for this.

Cutting the grass in November...it's so mild out.

Going for a run in a sleeveless top, it's usually layers and gloves at this time of year...

I remember, years ago, wishing that email had a "snooze button", so you could tell an email to go away until the right time. Then Microsoft actually did that, even calling it "Snooze", and Gmail and Apple offer the same or similar. I take it for granted now, since I use it so much, but I was reminded today of just how useful it is.

Relationship experience lol at this: two male 20-somethings behind me at the Christmas market last night. they were chatting about how crap the stalls were! One said that his gf said she wanted to go and the other said yes it looks like a good place for a date.

Boyfriend said well I told her it's crap and not worth going to, but I'll ask her anyway. I can almost hear the annoyance when he asks her to go to the market he has already told her will be crap. Yup, none of mine would react well to that.

One candidate for a big party in my constituency has been using the same posters for the best part of 20 years.

Was waiting for my winter clothing delivery from my favourite label, courier arrives earlier about 5 minutes before I needed to leave……lucky 🦥 as I’m out all day tomorrow.

Over visiting the brother and sister in law staying in spare room.

This caught my eye up on shelf -

Should I be contacting the relevant authorities? Who would they be? And would the two of them already know my next move?

That it's a month until Christmas

It's not really trivial but I was in a charity shop yesterday. There was someone with special needs working there. The staff and all the the regulars were making such a big fuss of them.

"Do you want some cake", "Are you happy doing that", "How did you get on at the match at the weekend?" etc etc.

When you think of how people used to get left behind by society. It is such a joy to know that society now on the whole really look out for these people.

10 days later and the courier turned up again. There was some mix up as I haven’t ordered anything else and on opening the box it was the identical order, every item replicated … So I’m guessing some error in the dispatch / warehouse but I’ll be keeping an eye on my bank statement but 100% I didn’t order more stuff.. happy days though, bonus 😎😂
