Any time that there’s a very excessive replaying of that Bruno Mars’ song “Marry You” actually makes me wish that there was a song called “Divorce You”.
So the chorus would probably include something like: “I think I wanna divorce you !”

The expiration date is a (motivational) price; so maybe that’s more reason to indulge in the “vice”

While the triathlete stated that she’d do Ironman, she had to clarify to the fanboy that she was not talking about Robert Downey Jr. or Tony Stark, and that she would not do Iron Man
. (She was actually referring to the Ironman Triathlon, not the superhero.)

“Complete news coverage” is how the news channel describes itself. That slogan strangely makes me wish that everyone could easily have complete health coverage

Sometimes the excessive repetitiveness of a song’s chorus causes me to consider that the opposite of that chorus’ message might really be true.
Maybe the singer of a suspiciously excessive chorus is in denial. Or a “fake-it-’til-you-make-it” sense of optimism could really be going on.
