Everyone's ragging on the Christmas retail ambience songs, but at least you can mitigate the risks of hearing those ones by staying the fuck out of shopping malls. My top three:

  • Cotton Eye Joe
  • Whatever that song is that's basically just "tonight's gonna be a good night" over and over
  • Danza Kuduro

The strobe light problem might also be caused by putting a LED that's not dimmer-compatible on a dimmer switch

I think it was rated PG-13, not R

In fact it was rated PG. The resulting backlash, along with a similar situation with Gremlins, directly resulted in the MPAA creating the PG-13 rating.

Do you have a moment to talk about our Lord and Saviour, Zalgo?

I mean, I’m still not getting an EV. But now I am tempted… Maybe if they had real, physical dials instead of a computer screen?

That, unfortunately, is the tendency for the entire auto industry. It's not an EV-specific thing, although admittedly Tesla is the worst offender

urine is sterile

Not by the time it exits your body, no. Urine is sterile when it leaves the bladder, but it picks up bacteria on its way through the urethra
