The Seldom Killer:
There's nothing wrong with self-criticism as long as it's objective and focussed. Criticise things that you think you either didn't do as well as you could have done or feel you should be able to improve on. Be specific though. Directionless criticism is just cyclical. Also, learn to accept praise. I have difficulties with this and am very uncomfortable with it but some people will look at what you do an think it's worthy of comment. At the very least learn to smile and nod gracefully then slowly back away.

Thrillho:
I don't understand why birthday cards sometimes say 'congratulations' on them.

'Congratulations on continuing the compulsory aging process!'
'Congratulations on not being dead yet!'

You've not achieved anything except not dying, which everyone who isn't dead has achieved.

It makes-ah-no-sense-ah to me-ah.

Masterpiece:
Did we just catch you mid org or what was that at the end

Barmymoo:
Fake Italian accent, at a guess.

The vast majority of humans is dead. If you are one of the six percent that is alive, isn't that worth celebrating?
