The IT Crowd - S1 E6 - Aunt Irma Visits
Added 2023-12-08 13:00:09 +0000 UTC
I still think Aunt Flo sounds better. She sounds more exotic, like she is visiting from some tropical island and everytime she visits she brings fresh coconuts. xD
Also just a little life tip for the fellas: NEVER, and I mean NEVER ask a girl if she is being visited by Aunt Flo based on her bad mood. That is just like telling someone who is not calm to calm down. Just adds fuel to the fire. -- You are welcome. =p

Hiya Mandy!
0:15 lol playing the โWhose aunt is it?โ guessing game ร la Taskmaster reactions. Thatโs not how this show works ๐
13:00 Well TIL - menstrual synchrony doesnโt exist! Iโve heard of the idea many times, and just accepted it as a non-controversial fact. Well wadda ya know! A 1971 paper in Nature just popularized the idea but results were not consistently reproducable! Evolutionarily, females competing for good genes should should *avoid* synchrony, whereas females competing for male time and energy should synchronize. Also, given the different frequencies and durations, the probability of โoverlapโ by chance is already quite common.
Yep, TIL ๐ Itโs the kind of โfactโ that you can casually put out there to be controversial for no other reason than to get into an argument ๐คฃ when someone talks about being in sync - oh boy!
I once heard talk about a male hormone cycle of similar duration, but google now just tells me about menโs 24h daily testosterone cycle ๐คทโโ๏ธ Oh! Purge my brain of this pseudo-science ๐ค
24:32 Mandy: โIs this so much to ask for in friends? Just sayinโโ Hey Miranda, if you design the t-shirt, Iโll pick out the karaoke bar. Is that too much to ask for? Just sayinโ. ๐
Right! Everyone keeps telling you about the next episode ๐คฆโโ๏ธ so letโs just get on and enjoy it!

Hey Mandy, found a Karl clip you havenโt seen yet! Itโs a little preview show of an idiot abroad with Karl Ricky and Steve, would be a fun reaction! ๐

Probably still living in Argentina. All I want is for her to be happy though, and I am pretty sure I am on the right track for that!
Mandy Cane Lane
2023-12-11 03:54:54 +0000 UTC
Haha, nice example! Well now I'm going to have to try that next time I go out in the rain (which will be easy at it's raining all the time now). I'm going to be sitting on my drive waiting for the sync up between the wipers and the indicator. :)
Great pun too :)

Your random question of the day today is. What do you want 40 year old Mandy to be doing? Do you see yourself marries? Still living in Argentina etc?

In the UK we have windscreen wipers and indicators rather than windshield wipers and blinkers.
Jeffrey44
2023-12-10 01:52:54 +0000 UTC
Very loaded question. I am content with how I turned out and I am the sum of my life as a whole, so nothing that I wished never happened. One cool thing I would change is having taken singing lessons instead of Taekwondo ๐คฃ

That is funny. Having seen both Offices I love them both and appreciate that despite the obvious similarities, the Americans made it their own but in an actual funny way (as long as Steve Carell was present).
Mandy Cane Lane
2023-12-10 01:35:59 +0000 UTC
A great example of the sync up thing is when in a car you have the windshield wipers and the blinkers on at the same time. They each have their own speed, but at some point they will fall in sync for a breif period. (Pun intended) ๐คฃ๐คฃ
Mandy Cane Lane
2023-12-10 01:34:02 +0000 UTC

Don't worry James, when the time to watch it arrives I will have forgotten. Also thank you Chad for the warning, but I am curious, how do I brace myself? Is a seatbelt enough? ๐ค๐คช๐ค

2023-12-09 19:50:00 +0000 UTC
Really glad you're liking it! Now that you have some perspective, I think it's worth mentioning that there is an American version of this show that was so bad, it never made a single episode on the air!
I bring it up because I think it's somewhat of a miracle that "The Office" has been such a huge success in the US. They captured lightning in a bottle... twice!
Mike Miner
2023-12-09 19:20:25 +0000 UTC
Flo as in flow? Erm.. maybe I won't ask :)
Yeah some funny moments in that one. You guessed what was going on before the episode revealed it. As a guy, I had no idea about this 'sync up' thing. And why would I? :)
But as an I.T. guy, I don't think I'm the way Noel's character described. Easy suggestible, or whatever it was. hehe

Richard Ayoade has brought his co-stars from this series along on his Travel Man series. Would be fun to see those at some point now that you've watched some of IT Crowd. you also need to watch the Travel Man with Greg Davies!

Have you tried removing said head from said arse? I find that perks me up. There are even medical procedures for it these days for more permanent relief. I believe it's called a 'rectocraniotomy' or something like that. ๐ jk hang in there dude ๐

Tell me about it ๐. I was once subjected to a sermon about the wonders of vaginal discharge in all its various colours and consistencies etc thanks to a group chat glitch while playing Sea of Theives. I did hunt down and kill the offending woman. Her shipmates were very accommodating and more than happy to let me do so.

You volume seems to be a little low Mandy compared to the volume of the episode, I noticed it in the Shaun Of The Dead reaction too but thought it was just that reaction. Just a heads up for future reactions.
