Billie Eilish - my strange addiction

MY SCORE: 7/10
I had a flatmate a few years ago who commandeered the television for about four hours a night during the winter and he binged the fuck out of The Office. Like, he would come in from work, lie on the couch, watch about five episodes, fall asleep as about four more episodes played, and only wake up when I came through to the living room to kick the sofa and send him to bed like a child. He would then resume the next night, starting with the episodes he slept through, and I could hear them from my room for a second time.
I would occasionally sit down and watch a few episodes, but even if I didn't, the sound of it found me anyway. Thus, I have actually seen or heard all nine fucking seasons of The Office in its entirety, and reader, let me tell you: it's the epitome of straight mid-noughties nonsense, complete with homophobia being played for laughs. Why are we meant to be rooting for a workplace bully and the bland receptionist charmed by his sociopathy, exactly? How did John Krasinski make a career out of being a textbook Mediocre White Dude who occasionally breaks the fourth wall? And the fact it all somehow manages to get even worse when Steve Carrell leaves and that guy from The Hangover takes over????? And Catherine Tate comes in????????? And the fact that the heifer I lived with tried to session fucking Community afterwards and stopped because I kept coming into the room and tearing it to pieces?????????
WHAT???????
Oh right there's a song. It's a fine song. Billie Eilish also loves The Office, which might be her worst trait after befriending XXXtentacion tbh. And Phyllis is the only person who shouldn't have died in the main cast. But Jim and Angela should have died in the most painful way possible.
Never watch The Office. And never watch Community either, for that matter. Honestly, that entire phase where NBC launched about eighty """quirky""" single camera comedies because The Office had been so successful is probably why it's in total dire straits more than most networks now. All these critical darlings getting cancelled after eight episodes before The Big Bang Theory came in on CBS in all its dated, multi-camera, hideously unfunny glory and... lasted for twelve seasons and became the biggest comedy of the decade was just--!

Yeah, I still think stanning XXXTETRAPAK to the point of making several songs about him is her worst trait.
Kelly, Angela and Meredith are the best characters in The Office.
my strange addiction is incredible, it was a late bloomer for me but that skittering, bouncy production is some of the album’s finest.

my strange addiction is a fun bop. I love the production, melody and lyrics, but I gave it a 9.5, cause I just don't give a fuck about The Office.
We've honestly gotten the Billie eliminations so right, except for listen before I go, you heathens, so I hope ilomilo will be the next Billie song to go, whenever it happens.

The fact that I don't even remember who Meredith is... I'm healing.

I’m so tired of people trying to come for Lizzo. Enough.
And our final one of the night...

How does my pasty male ass talk about a song that is designed to push back against colourism and lift up women with darker skin complexions? It doesn't, because it's not really my sector to discuss. However, we will discuss the fact that Blue Ivy is now more decorated with awards than most of your faves thanks to this song. Eight years old and winning NAACP Image Awards? Literally who else's daughter? But yes, this one's great. Warm, essential, celebratory, and truly delivers on Beyoncé's intention for the album for it to be something that she could gift to her children. I don't really think anything else needs to be said. I think it also went a little bit viral on release with parents singing it to their young daughters? Sweet.
I'll let Beyoncé explain it in this video, where she also explains "MOOD 4 EVA" which means @Laura Vanderbooben beat me to the fucking punch again.
