“A plea for peace”
Tom: :)
“… and mercy”
Tom: >:(
mercy is not allowed on this channel >:(
“You can have your peace, but not your mercy”
The only peace there's gonna be is the peace and quiet left after those little green bastards hit the bricks
It was the "wanker" hand gesture from the alien that caused the "DING!"
exactly this lol, and its like the best part. Toms all getting ready to be proper and all and aliens just like "here a hot load for ya" and toms like "you bitch maybe i should work for nasa and come to mars to strangle you"
The brutality of eating asparagus with the intent to pee on your aggressor is an outstanding joke
I just got that after watching it for the second time.
You don't rub asparagus directly on a jelly sting? 😮
And aggressively chugging the same gatorade he bought at the shops where he yelled at the pasta lady, lol
I thought it was aloe vera so thank you for explaining the joke 😅👍👍
why, what's special about asparagus specifically?
I love how he always gets that little smirk right before he lets loose. Hes already cathartic before he even finishes
oooooh I still don't say it
It's not a little smirk. It's a huge rage-grin.
Tom Cathardy
Phrasing?
That’s what she said
This really is unironically my favorite song. Like "Do you think the president of earth has a mullet?" is legit one of the best lyrics.
Absolutely one of the best lines I've ever heard for anything.
would be the best president ever he would be honest :D
Maybe, more Presidents rocking mullets could make humans come together and not surrender the planet to any Spacefaring motherhumpers
Personally I feel any President of the planet I call home could and *should* rock a mullet! I did in high school after all and I wasn't even all that good looking!
A FUCKING mullet*
I love how he's holding a slightly drunk gatorade bottle so you can tell that he wrote thing song as soon as he got home after being disturbed by that lady
yeah and he has a picture from the beach to
And what probably is a sunburn...
So if all tracks... he stopped an alien invasion using his passive aggressive-ness
@@steampunkgamez9703 I really don't think it was passive, but it adds up
So you're telling me this based on a true story?
I love being on this journey where Tom just vents his life events into catchy songs.
Yeah specifically the NASA part
Tom must have paid a fortune for his home hes got beach access and easy NASA viewing? Jealous.
☝️☝️Thanks for watching and commenting…with the way things are going inow I will advise you start investing especially on profitable crypto and stocks reach out to me expert ☝️☝️>>
It is cheaper and more profitable than therapy
Ya remember the time he became president of the word after stopping an alien invasion? That was epic
"My foresight readies me for melee!"
THAT'S SUCH A FUCKING GOOD LINE TOM!
well he roled a 20 on his perception check
@@brickchef8282 you spelled rolled wrong
that might be the best line of the decade wwwwww
Me when my friends ask which version of Smash Bros we're going to play today.
@@OrangeInsect You didn't capitalize or punctuate your sentence. Now politely, kindly, please go away with your grammar Nazi ways because
Your attitude sucks.
This song singlehandedly showed me that Tom has legitimately flawless understanding and control of his body language. From his static stances of agression, to the more relaxed dancing, to the passive agressive smirk he gets when he goes off on whoever inconvenienced him... it all just perfectly expresses exactly how he and those other people feel in those exact moments, down to milliseconds. Its honestly insane
It's not a smirk. It's a rage-grin.
I hope people never stop fucking with Tom. I feel like every time he's mildly inconvenienced, we get one of the best hits of our generation.
Next up: "Why Do I Always Get The Tomato End in my Sandwich?" and "No, I Don't Have My Warranty Paperwork."
@@davidrichardson7205 After those we get, "Sorry I filed my Taxes late, please don't fine me"
Can’t wait for “the sole of my shoe bunches up at the most annoying spot so I’m walking weird am now I have scoliosis
@@EKimatH "There's a rock in my shoe, but I can't take it off in public."
"This f*cking bathroom stall doesn't have 4G reception."
I love the "Just bear with me" after just tossing "local NASA compound" in there because he knows we know it's about to get real dumb
I'm here wondering if there is actually a branch of NASA in Sydney, Australia, like... I thought NASA was only an American thing?
@@sophia_jane There are a few NASA facilities in Australia, yes! Basically because it has some of the harshest environments on Earth, so they do things like test spacesuits there and such
@@sophia_jane lol that was my thought too, then my second thought was "oh yeah wait, we have bases freaking everywhere, a NASA building in Sydney isn't nearly that much of a stretch"
@@keckhardt3386 NASA: How are we going to make sure our spacesuits will survive the vacuum of space or mars?
Also NASA: If it can survive Australia it can survive anything.
@@windwaker105I mean if we're being real, terraforming the desert would be a good first step to terraforming Mars
The newspaper at the end is a work of art. Also, did anyone else feel strangely patriotic for him telling aliens to fuck off?
As an aussie I couldn't be more proud
A plea for mercy might work, but that's some weak shit. Telling them to go fuck themselves at least let's you keep your dignity, and who knows, maybe they were bluffing!
theres something so human about being a spiteful douchebag, im pretty sure the aliens wouldnt want to put up with us because their invasion would make us all get along for once lmao
As a german (unbiased as aussies go) that has drunk with all kinds of nationalities I think I can safely say, that I also would like a slightly hungover Aussie to be our negotiator against an alien invasion.
I think, Australia itself probably tries to kill each and every human being living in it. So all the Aussies that make it won’t be phased by anything (extraterrestrial) life throws at them. That and a weird penchant for swearing are the two most endearing qualities Australia nurtures in it’s people.
And that’s basically all you can ask for, if negotiating with the Martian invaders.
@@eduardfroschstern2151they send down giant spiders, Earth defense force style and the Aussies are just like "mate theres bigger spiders in my boots every morning"
I love the casual fourth wall breaking with the "Just bear with me" line. "I know this is sounding ridiculous but I'm going somewhere with it" 😂
We all know that Tom sometimes makes songs based off his life experiences. So I think I speak for us all when I say "Thank you Tom from saving us from that alien attack on live television a while back. That would have been a doozy without you."
You had me in the first half
@@jonathansorenson6840 Not gonna lie.
Not to mention his heroic work in letting that child die.
@@justsomeguy5628
The son's fine he just swims weird. And you shouldn't hold that against him.
That old lady never got her groceries thank god lol
There is something strangely motivating about the lyric:
"Hey, I don't work here, but even if I did, I would not surrender shit"
Half of human history basically
Same vibe as me hating on America, but the moment a brit is being rude to America my ass becomes patriotic as hell
I mean, how much of a pinnacle of your life is it if you get to tell and invading alien species "Hey, I don't work here, but even if I did, I would not surrender shit"
4:05
The idea that Tom is trying to get all nice and friendly for the alien visitors only to instantly lose it with a comical ding sound as the alien calls him a wanker is hysterical.
That and the asparagus joke both kill me.
well wouldn't you lose it if some alien scum called you a wanker?
I appreciate how he says "I don't work here" in the portion in which "here" was Earth itself.
I mean....
He *is* unemployed, so he's not wrong
4:05 the idea of the entire world vibing together as Tom drops the mother of all disstracks on an alien invader is, weirdly, genuinely inspiring.
Knowing humanity as a whole, it feels like it would be out genuine reaction
Last level of Elite Beat Agents spoilers
I mean the guy was pretty disrespectful, even without all the "gib da planet" thing.

"my foresight readies me for melee" is pretty much my number one line of all time tbh
I always love how the narrative of Tom's songs tend to go from relatable situation to Bollywood plotline feverdream with nary a haf-step between the states.
U RIGHT U RIGHT all of these songs r bollywood levels of wild
😆😆😆 that’s a great way to describe it
if you like songs where things gradually get weirder I highly recommend jazz emu!
@@anna-fleurfarnsworth104 Jazz Emu is *fantastic.*
If other people did this, being mistaken for a lifeguard in a life or death situation would be the extreme example used for the punchline. But here it's just the mid point.
Love that "just bear with me" has to be a lyric so people aren't wondering why the hell Tom is suddenly talking about NASA
specifically the joke is the United States space agency having a building in Australia
@@RelikenRight? Since it was in Australia it should have been an ARSE compound.
@@not_that_personSomebody didn't think that acronym through too well🤣
@@FrauWilhelmKlink Sadly they did, because ARSE (Australian Research & Space Exploration) isn't actually the name of the Australian space agency. It's ASA (Australian Space Agency). ARSE is just a joke someone came up with a long time ago.
@@not_that_person Ah, gotcha.
Another great throw away line. "bear with me" acknowledging the absurdity of the final set up. Tom is a fucking genius.
His job is not beach
1:48 The cuts of the dad 'running' towards the camera never fails to send me rolling. It's so stilted and awkward yet simultaneously threatening.
Its just how real dads run tbh
just what aussie blokes are like if they're super upright
Menacing even
He's doing the cha cha, aggressively, Tom joins in for a moment too...
This comes out at perfect lullaby hours in my timezone, thanks Tom
*ruclips.net/video/zj4Gzp2lI2I/видео.html*
Finally its here *YES*
I hate it when I accidentally kick my ball over the fence of my local NASA compound
I love how despite their earlier encounters, the old lady and the dad recognize Tom as the hero of our story in the end.
He did save the world from aliens regardless of how much of a prick he was. Even his worst enemies would dance along with him just flip the bird to the aliens.
This song had it all. A catchy tune, good story and a jobless hero.
You forgot that it also gave us almost a whole minute of shirtless Tom Cardy :V
And a few minutes of spedo Cardy @@storminajar
I can't believe there aren't more comments about how EXTREMELY GOOD his middle-American-newscaster voice is, like goddamn.
right?!
i was utterly CONVINCED that was someone else
@@jackeroni216 Same. It didn't even occur to me that it might be him until I read comments about it.
I was SHOOK- just vibing and then "Wait, this is TOM??"
Wait, it’s seriously not someone else?
He rolled a NAT 20 of vicious mockery on the alien.
I think he did with all these people, maybe not the dad. Maybe bardic inspiration.
The acting and editing are magnificent, but my favorite bit is easily the iconic delivery of "...Ya FOOL."
Time stamp ( 1:06 )
"Hey I don't work here but if I did I would not surrender shit" is such a fun line
4:05
Extremely raw
so is "do you think the president of earth as a F**kin mullet"
In another universe:
"Where do you keep the pasta?"
"HAVE YOU CHECKED YOUR BUTTHOLE?"
Ski-bap, ba-dap, butthole!
No no. That's not the right way. You must ask "do you know where the pasta is"
@@alphabetsoup6837 and i still won't say it
💀💀💀
Aliens: Where is your leader!?!
Tom: :D
"Relieve that nasty sting" while eating asparagus is such a banger of an Easter egg. If you know you know....
& there's two specific things that you have to know.
The ticking and ding before the chorus kicks in is a perfect representation of someone’s patience running out before they tell you off.
I love how slightly awkward all of his movements are. the fact that he intentionally zoomes in on the awkward parts and also doesn't look away from the camera for almost the whole vid just adds so much flavor
Oddly reminiscent of Agent 47.
To add to that, the first article from the newspaper at the end is Louis Theroux hammering in just how awkward he is
MAINTAIN EYE CONTACT
The beach walk is amazing
Well that took an unexpected turn, i mean... How could I ever expect that Tom would have the skills to make a race car out of sand??? Absolutely mind boggling
He can play all these instruments, he can sing, he's a great songwriter, he can make a sand racecar...
Feels like the only thing he can't do is be a cop.
@@cjnchimaera hmmm Im not so sure about that last bit
@@Jojozilla426 nah he always says he's not a cop, so he can't be
☝️☝️Thanks for watching and commenting…with the way things are going inow I will advise you start investing especially on profitable crypto and stocks reach out to me expert ☝️☝️>>
@@cjnchimaera you are so right, tom is the definition of the manic pixie dream boy, he has all the skills
I love a lot about this song, but the most relatable part is that while he's reluctant with the people who actually need help, he's willing to assist until they act rudely. (The dad didn't actually need help, his son was fine, so Tom didn't help, only sassing him when the guy rolls his eyes.)
Theres been so many times I've been willing to help people because its the right thing to do, but if they start getting snappy, I immediately want to drop everything and leave. Of course, I usually don't, but I so badly want to. Working in retail kinda trains you to grin and bear any abuse you get sadly.
"Do you think the president of Earth has a FUCKIN' MULLET?!" is probably my favorite line in this song.
As someone with resting retail face, this has become my anthem. I don't know why everyone everywhere thinks I work there. Once someone thought I worked at Target while wearing a solid blue shirt. They notably wear red!
The probably didn't realize they were at target
Blue is like the ultimate worker color
I had my bags and a handful of clothes that I was trying on at a Uniqlo recently and some lady asked me where something was. I politely told her I don’t work here but…how do you think me, the bag lady, works here?
I was at Target dressed like a damn Hot Topic model (black band T-shirt, ripped black jeans, combat boots, neon green and black striped arm socks, chains, spikes, the whole nine) and I STILL got mistaken for an employee. With all due respect, how the fuck?
I had the same happen at target while wearing GREEN!! 🙄 and another time at a CVS while wearing short shorts and a tank top???? The resting retail face is very strong, like some kind of Employee Aura or something
I was at a Target once with people and for some reason got singled out as "Oh, they must work here"
...I ended up selling the guy on a GPS for his truck because my social anxiety would not allow me to correct him.
In dire need of a sequel called "Hey, I just work here" which speaks to the joys of working at a job where things could be a lot better, but nobody listens to your ideas because they're not management's ideas
It could be about all those complaints customers have that are always directed at low level employees like we can do jack shit about it

@@TheArtisticGamer7 "You really should keep this item in this other area"
Miss, I literally just man the cash register, I do not have authority of any kind in this establishment, and also the layout of the store is decided on a corporate level, even my boss can't change this shit up.
that's what I thought the title said at first, and we desperately need that version
@@Hakasedess "Well you should take that item off your menu." Ma'am, it's a digital display that updates biweekly from corporate. No one in this building, not even the district, can change this sign. Please just order your Mexican pizza and go.
"My foresight readies me for melee" is such a strangely good line
"Hey, I don't work here" closely followed by the camera zooming in on the NASA shirt he just stole
I love this mans humour
I have never felt so seen as I did when Tom bounces slightly and expresses his eyebrows while saying “I don’t have the authority to *do* that”.
Right?? 😂
The very specific facial expression when he sang, "I don't have the authority to do that." I - I just felt that, okay?
"Can't you just give me a refund without the buying slip? It's not that hard.
-Ma'am, it is absolutely not a complexity issue, and you screaming my ear off won't magically make me the corporation's manager of sales. And no, I can't call them for you."
I think we all, collectively, as a species, felt that. Absolutely.
I'm a manager at my job and just today a customer told me that as such I should magically be able to change corporate or CEO level policies because that's how it is in the movies...
omg I KNOW it's so good
Let me guess... Customer Service/Retail?
I love the physical comedy of him going from frown to slime on the first two confrontations, then smile to frown on the last one! We love a Rule of Three!
I love how the “thank you I can’t begin to-“ is basically foreshadowing the accidental savior he becomes.
Just got back from my cousins wedding and legit got asked if I worked at the venue twice. It’s like do you think I would be this drunk and on the dance floor if I did ?
Counterpoint: Can you tell us the name of the venue? Some of us might like to work there...
Were you looking for the ring? Because I think you might have walked into the wrong song.
@@incredibleWatty Lol some place called Diamond Garden ( I think ? had a lot of wine) in chicago . Cool interior set up and great food.

we need to make an edit of this part with the speech from independance day x)
Reminds me of the worlds end!
been blasting this on repeat for the past few days and it makes me feel better as someone who works service industry and hates serving others
0:41 Do you know were the pasta is?
Me: HAVE YOU CHECKED YOUR BUTHOLE?
SKIDAP BADAP BUTTHOLE 🎶
This song worked so well as a premiere because you can't see how long is left but things just keep escalating. SO GOOD!!
Absolutely! Being in Germany, I was tired as hell but that premiere felt like a creative, yet gorgeous kick in the balls.
I wish I could've been there!
I actually turned on notifications for the premiere but my partner came home and I really enjoy listening to his music in private so I can get my dance on. So I came in a day late and proceeded to listen to it 10 thousand times
It worked? That’s strange, I’m pretty sure the entire song is about him not working, at least, not here
The way he chokes the close on the solo at 1:33 and cusses out his mistake but continues without missing a beat lmao A+
I dont think he choked? I think he was improvising and wanted to hit a lower note like on the piano, but on this smaller instrument it just stops? (You can see his thumb touching absolutely nothing)
@@lupoedonna7158 Exactly, hes missing lower keys there
The whole shtick of it is precisely not having enough keys because he chose to solo on a melodica😂
HOW DID I NOT NOTICE THAT i really thought it was part of the song
@@Jakecake95 It might have been, if he was just doing a bit
Maybe i could relieve that sting for you is such an underrated line...
Ok but the newspaper articles at the end are *chef's kiss*. Tom, you're my favorite neurotic metal echidna
"My foresight readies me for melee" is maybe the best line you've ever written
''Relieve that nasty sting for you'' whilst eating asparagus. That got me....pure gold as always.
gold, I see what you did there.
I had a good laugh at that too. 😂
Asparagus has never stung anything for me, coming or going, and now I'm concerned for everyone lol.
Unless he means stings the nostrils, I get that lol.
@@TalynCo I think he's applying that the person got stung by a Jellyfish and one of the ways to ease the sting (which apparently doesn't work by the way) is to pee on the area.
@@CmakesP But how does asparagus correlate to that?
To be fair, if bloodthirsty aliens come to take the planet, of all nationalities, an Australian would be the one I'd send to take care of it
I still think "my foresight readies me for melee" is one of my favorite lines ever
"my foresight readies me for melee" is an incredible line
In no universe was I prepared for it, and that's what makes it incredible. It's a deliciously unhinged step in the song.
The "fuck" at the end of the melodica solo just makes this song for me.
The fact that he made the mistake and still managed to seamlessly weave it into the song is just *chefs kiss*
I don't think it's a mistake, he needs that low note (and knows where it is in the scale because you can see the thumb going for it but missing) but the melodica doesn't have it - so theoretically the cursing is against the melodica octaves
as if it's not written, rewritten, rehearsed or edited! Honestly the amount of people thinking this is like, all one take as he dreams it up is alarming
@@storageheater well, yeah. But the way he wove the lack of the key into the song is great. He didn't have to. It would have been easier not too.
time stamp?
@@kyrcamille9106 1:30
Hi Tom! Me and my sister love your stuff, we think you're hilarious and this is one of our favorites of yours. I just wanted to say that as someone with audio processing disorder, especially with singing, I really appreciate you always having captions on your videos. Keep up the awesome job!
Seconding this!
Thirded!
I play this song everytime I have a bad day at work. It honestly puts me in a better mood every time
This is my get going for the day song
As a retail employee: We all want to say all of this all the time, and we DO work here. Thank you.
CAN CONFIRM!!
i work there but when im not on the clock i will absolutely say i dont work there
This song feels like a vendetta from a personal incident. I love it. WTF happened, Tom?
I think a lot of his songs feel that way
Pretty sure that’s how he gets the ideas for all his songs
Somebody asked him to show them where is pasta. Don't you listen?
Alien takeover
*ruclips.net/video/zj4Gzp2lI2I/видео.html*
Finally its here *YES*
4:35
Alien: "GIVE US YOUR PLANET.....also context?"
okay but my favorite part has to be "what we can only imagine is an articulate plea for peace and mercy" followed by the most passive aggressive frown ever. fucking wonderful
Is it just me or is Tom getting progressively more ripped with each video
Even if it's not on purpose, he do be looking pretty fit for your average aussie with a temper.
I bet dat means something.
I WAS JUST GONNA SAY
What a handsome young man
It’s the cop training
he hasnt reached peak cardy just yet!
"My foresight readies me for melee" is a line I'm definitely going to use at random moments, saying it very seriously with narrowed eyes.
Dang, this had no reason to slap this hard. This is quite the amazing hidden gem I have found, well done
I love that when he says 'give us ya planet' the 'us' is singular. I don't think that tracks in other countries.
Oh shit you’re right, like “give us a hug”
Or am I off base? I wouldn’t know I’m a yank
@@MattBnl2ih You are correct.
I love the fact that it's pretty obvious that Tom wrote a song about an actual encounter in a supermarket, realised it was a freakin' bangin' tune so he had to keep it going, and rode the premise so hard it literally escaped earth's gravity and became interplanetary.
...and now I need to listen to beastie boys
As someone who's made the mistake of wearing a red shirt to target, I feel this in my soul
Bro I also once wore a red shirt to target
Bonus round:
Me, wearing blue in Target, getting into an argument about how I don't work there, and they explode: "But you're wearing blue!"
Me: "YES! IN TARGET WHERE THEY ALL WEAR RED!"
There's this slow dawning of the sun over the Plains of Ignorance as they realize where they actually are. XD
@@Silverserri Could be red-blue colour-blind.
That might have been them realising that the target shirts are red and not blue as they thought and that their whole life was a lie.
I don't think red-blue colourblindness is a thing, it's either red-green or blue- yellow
Plus the ones that affect all three cones (for some reason mobile browser youtube doesn't let you edit comments)
What I love about this song is that at first glance it seems to be structured in a predictable pattern, but every chorus something changes. Everything sounds similar, but it always changes.
Tom's ability to diversify his bird flipping actions to always take you by surprise is a talent I wish I possessed.
The sheer creative pettiness of experiencing a minor inconvenience in life and going home to write an absolute slappin banger of a song based on it is just incredible
The power stance he takes while confronting people is a gift tbh
Truee the stance he assumes for the first lady, brilliant subtle part of the genius of this song
It's the same pose toddlers make when they're soiling their diaper but x10 scarier
It’s the dead smile and eye contact for me. Absolutely unhinged
My favourite detail in this production might just be the setup & subsequent payoff (within the first 20 seconds of the video, no less) of one of the most inherently funny instruments-the cuíca.
Having watched this countless times, I can’t believe I only just noticed that the supermarket lady and the beach Dad are totally bopping along to the beat and loving it by the end 🤩😍🥰
If there is ever an election for president of the earth, this man has my vote
He has all of our votes
If we get to the point of having a one world leader I have zero confidence we'll be living in an elective democracy but in that event then same ..same
*ruclips.net/video/zj4Gzp2lI2I/видео.html*
Finally its here *YES*
Why not just get enough people to write him in
He deserves 250 medals
At some point, his brand is going to be so strong that "making a song request" will mean "wishing weirdly specific misfortune."
"Mr. Cardy, you're such a prolific author, where does the inspiration come in for these marvelous songs?"
Tom: *hides a pack of fortune cookies* You see, my life is a string of fortunes and misfortunes interwoven.
The aggression in his smile when telling the Karen he doesn't work there is beautiful.
One year later, I'm still amazed by the amount of effort that went into this looking and sounding so good and effortless.
There's something to be said about the monotony of Tom's situations coupled with the complexity and originality of his tunes
Edit: nevermind, got to the aliens.
lmao
I think this may be one of my favorite youtube comments of all time
Not gonna lie, I think about this comment as much as I think about the song. Which is literally multiple times a day.
This remains one of my favourite edits... 😂
The smile, dance, and sunglasses over "I made a middle aged woman cry today!" is definitely the best part
Tom pasive-agressively trying to explain to aliens that he doesnt have the authority to surrender the planet, is just pure gold to me
Re: And those agressive dance moves at 1:05 'cheffs kiss'
I feel like that first part with the old lady and the pasta was legit and inspired this whole song
1:30 is my favorite because tom tries to go for that last low note and realizes it isn't there but it's too late "FUCK!"
Also was that a cuica in the beginning like from Paul Simon’s Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard?
Thank you. I couldn’t figure out what happened there.
None of my overseas friends believe me when I tell them the most popular communication device in Australia is the Aircon remote.
All hail President Cardy.
“My foresight readies me for melee”. Absolute gold
Ever since I came across this absolute masterpiece a month ago, it's constantly stuck in my head. This man is my hero lol
my personal favourite highlights:
1:16 "silly me, i've had the pasta all along (fuck you)"
1:46 the look on his face as he sings "my foresight readies me for melee"
2:17 readying himself to piss on a man by chugging water and eating some conveniently there asparagus
3:54 he's prepared to take responsibility for the whole of earth and to try to be diplomatic with these aliens, but then one mimes calling him a jackoff and he loses his shit at them
and finally, the cherry on top, 4:24 "do you think the president of earth has a fuckin' mullet?"
I didn't catch the jack off one first time around, but that's great.😂
Everyone of these are definitely gold, but when panning the liquid river of gold Tom gave us every bit found is gold😂💜
The thing that impresses me most about this song and most of Tom's work is the constant embellishments he makes with his instrumentations and vocals. It's never just a repeat of the last refrain, there's always some little musical nuggets of gold to find on repeats. "Upon the beach" at 1:42 for example. Wonderful talent.
its so funny too, i can almost swear i've heard that little motif before for beach/tropical songs or whatever
just fyi the lyric isn't "upon the beach" it's "at bondi beach", basically Sydney's most famous beach (there's a whole tv series about the lifeguards there which is actually a really fun watch and available on youtube now)

I just left a shop i used to work at and got yelled at by customers for not helping them and I was like I LITERALLY DO NOT WORK HERE and just b lined for the exit. Opened my phone and saw this.
EDIT: Adding an edit just to annoy you >:-)
Tom Cardy's got your back
That is fucking amazing.
Your phone (and Tom) are always listening.
The universe aligns itself in mysterious ways
He is a master of real life awkwardness

love the energy behind "I don't have the authority to do that"
Every job I’ve ever quit, I’ve played this song VERY loudly on my last day. Definitely makes the day even better. Thanks Tom! 🎉
This is less than a year old. How many jobs have you quit?
The thought of the granny and the dad watching and thinking "Oh no, this guy? We're fucked."
is pretty funny to me.
