Done some research... and you're getting triggered (for whatever reason) by a marketing campaign by Foxy Bingo, you dumb *****

"The move is being driven by online gaming site Foxy Bingo, which asked its customers to vote for their top 20 favourite new calls based on suggestions in chatrooms. Foxy Bingo director Jonathan Bowden said: "We're seeing a record number of younger players visiting the site to play bingo and the new wave of bingo calls is switching things up."
