@Etisalat_Care hey there, I’m trying to pay my mobile phone bill through your online quick pay page, but I keep getting this error message when I click “Accept and continue” for the amount.

I can live without a lot of things. Coffee is not one of those things.

The average person throughout their lifetime spends six months waiting at traffic lights.

An average social media professional spends eight waiting for client approval on the posts.

Dear Snapchat, there is no universe in which me, or anyone I know, would spend $180-$410 on your "spectacles".

Now stop bombarding me with ads please.

It's funny how things change in one year. This time last year, Souq was all the rage and no one used Noon. Then Souq gets swallowed by Amazon, it becomes garbage, and Noon drastically up their game and absolutely dominate.

Well done @noon, keep it up.

[Ahmed El-Sadek @aelsadek]

Aaaaand the awards season is here. Which means we’re gonna see a lot of irrelevant nonsense from brands in the next few weeks.
