  • I'd like to see a complaints choir? from a third world country. No doubt

    "My only source of water is a muddy stream.

    The clothes I'm wearing now are the only ones I own.

    And half my family is dying of Aids."

    would give some perspective to complaints about late buses.

  • @Conway79 Just because some people have it worse doesn't mean a late bus isn't fucking annoying

  • @Conway79 Sos we aren't earnest enough. (It's a regional thing you can't be British I guess?) The Birmingham accent sounds like we are complaining

    - so they say, but actually we have a great ironic sense of humour which this is an example of.

  • @Conway79 I think you missed the irony of all the petty complaints...

  • hey, just checked the website and there is no contact link. i'd like to organize one in rio de janeiro... do i need some sort of permission? thanks!

  • Most of it is sung in ONE NOTE... That's not music... That's monotone noise. >_< More tonality pl0x!

  • what a load of SHIT

  • @Conway79 I live in a third world country and guess what... Our complaints choir sings about things like late buses too. We do not sing about war, about death, about killings. No need to remind us. Perspective! Please...
