Are You Suffering From Jannui?

January + ennui = Jannui.

Bri Bri

IT’S JANUARY. The weather is awful. Everything we ever looked forward to is gone.

All that’s left is a sense of boredom – ennui, if you will – of a very special kind. Really, there’s only one word for it: jannui.

Have you fallen victim to it? Take this quiz to find out.

A week ago
A fortnight ago

Many many moons ago, in that time the old ones call the Before Time
Literally cannot remember
2. Pick a spirit dog.
3. Which of these most closely describes your work lunch?
Healthy salad I made as part of my new year diet plan
Leftover takeaway from the weekend

Sad sandwich
Cup-A-Soup I bought years ago and found while desperately searching the kitchen for food scraps

Oh God.

Constant sniffles that never quite turn into a cold
Endless colds, nose a giant swollen blotch, can't remember the last time my sinuses tasted freedom
