Never heard. if anyone uses this with me, I will be clueless.
For me, based on context, I will assume one of the following:

Yes.
And apparently so it the rest of the world. Googling it came up at the top of the list with this[^].
Horrid lyrics. Not to mention artwork. Not to mention the whole "song." Someone should diplomatically ban that song from the world and write a P.M.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Yeah I was one of them.

I had an early morning presentation with a live demo so I took my time preparing it but at the last minute MS Teams decided I can't share my screen. It would just go blank as soon as I click on sharing option. Good thing, I had the presentation in my drive so no problem but had to skip over the demo which definitely put me in an embarrassing state. 
Now I can't decide whether I should blame MS Teams or MacBook (At least this never happened with windows  )
Might just go to the beach now to have my sorrows taken away

Feel you right there.

Yes! Its about half an hour walk away. Of course we can't get into water as of now but a walk on the beach could be pretty calming as well.

I woke at 03:32 to the sounds of the cat using the litter tray.
The day has got better since then.

I hear you. I worked for 12 hours the other day because I got a deadline thrown at me 2 days in advance. I had to hand off what I'm building so that a demonstration could be created for the client. Keep in mind I'm 4000 miles (who knows how many km that is?) away from my fellow creator (an electronics engineer).
Well, I get the code running great on my hardware and deliver first thing in the morning so he has time to prepare. He doesn't get back to me until almost end of business to tell me the touch screen bit isn't working on his end. Well that's one of things we were supposed to demo.
Since I couldn't reproduce the problem on my end I didn't get a fix in until the next morning.
Who to blame? the dodgy touch screen driver by Adafruit? my cohort for not getting back to me? Myself for not anticipating the problem?
Meh. I've found looking for blame is so often a mug's game. Life throws us little plot twists and its our job to navigate them. Mistakes are made sometimes. Hopefully some learning happens in that case. All the rest just follows from there.
Although I'd still blame Microsoft, on principle.

An hour late getting to the beach (cold here in southern Florida) so the good spot  was gone. Now all I can do is binge youtube for Mean Mary and Post Modern Jukebox

Volunteered to help clean up the front of our neighborhood yesterday. Big mistake, woefully underestimated the work load. Ended up with 35 large piles of leaves and pine straw.
This morning I had to mow up there, then when I was in the shower, the neighbor who I think has OCD issues and was decorating the front, came knocking on my door looking for me. I, of course, and in the shower now. Wife comes in... "who is this lady...."
