For those who don’t know, Classic FM is a classical music radio station in the UK, and Alton Towers is a British theme park. Alton Towers ran a TV advertising campaign a while back which used In the Hall of the Mountain King as the background music, and Lauren came home one night and we had the conversation detailed in the strip.

She does that kind of thing all the time. It annoys the hell out of me.

Panel 1: Lauren and Matt are standing talking.
Lauren: "I was listening to Classic FM, and they played the Alton Towers theme."
Matt: "Argh!"

Panel 2:
Matt: "It's not the Alton Towers theme! It's 'In the Hall of the Mountain King', by Grieg!"

Panel 3:
Matt: "It's from Peer Gynt!"
Lauren: "I know, honey. I just knew that would annoy you."

Tooltip: And then they played the Lone Ranger theme!
