Random, Random, Random

Like a lot of people we listen to music on Spotify and recently we've been subjected to the exact same advert approximately 15 times a day.


The advert in question is from the Scottish Government to promote safer driving on country roads, the advert begins by playing various short clips of music before a voiceover begins: "My tunes are always on shuffle..." It then goes on to compare the randomness of the "tunes" with what a driver might encounter on a country road such as a deer, tractor etc before going on to say  "it's totally random!" Unsurprisingly this has been more than a little wearing, despite highlighting a serious issue, the word "random" had become a byword for chronic irritation. Until today!

By "random" I stumbled on to this – a site with nothing but "random" photos with absolutely no information about them. A lot of the pictures are family snaps, many of them not very well taken, but as a whole, the site features an amazing selection of weird and wonderful photos from all over the world.

For best results click on the "random" button at the bottom of the page and don't blame me if you get slightly addicted.

P.S the advert came on twice while I was typing this!
