Fabulous App Notifications are Fabulous.


"Celebrate Australia Day And Burns Night In Pet Society! All kinds of Scottish and Australian fun in the shops! [Play Now!] 06:22" - Notification from Pet Society (I don't play it anymore, btw, so no pokes at my masculinity please.)

 I missed the days when apps were less subtle. Where once you flicked on TVB you'd immediately be bombarded by fat businessmen screaming out reasons why their product will completely kick the butt of any single business competitor within twenty hundred miles of their region

Nowadays, it's all just a "Here are the advantages, here are advantages of my competitors' products, now pretty please buy ours or we might just smother a kitten"-sort-of type.

Of course, now and then we still get some exceptions, like this app notification I found today:


 I'm surprised they managed to pull it off without even touching the formatting buttons.

"Fan Graffiti" What? "Fan Graffiti". No reasons why, just do it. Fan the god-forsaken app for goodness' sakes. Who cares what you think? FAN GRAFFITTI. FAN! GRAFFITI! @#%ING! DAMMIT!

Sigh (: I love the Interwebs.
