No Michael, no! That was so not right!
A No Michael, No! That Was So Not Right! post.
You tell the landlord the boiler's broken. It's November. He replies three days later: "Old buildings, these things happen." Your brother reveals a rule on page 14 of the board game manual that wins him the game, on his last turn. You protest. "It's in the rules." The self-checkout charges you twice for one banana. The assistant shrugs: "It does that." Mum gives the last roast potato to the dog. You object, loudly, as a grown adult. "Well, he asked nicely." **How it came about:** on the last lap of the 2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, race director Michael Masi's safety car call put Max Verstappen right behind Lewis Hamilton with the title on the line. Toto Wolff went on the radio: "No Michael, no! No Mike! That was so not right!" Masi answered "Toto, it's called a motor race." The radio was broadcast, and it was a meme before the champagne dried. **Why it caught on:** it's the sound of watching the rules change at the exact moment they cost you, which everyone has felt, at a board game if nowhere else.
