      I would love for the profanity censoring to be more DGAF meme'y. Maybe cut to some security surveillance monitoring guard snoozing off, suddenly jolted awake and reacting when hearing the profanity, going "oh shit!" all panic'y, reaching over and franticly hammering the bleep button multiple times. While on split-screen, Simon is nearly a full sentence beyond the profanity when a burst of random length bleeps rattle off.
      It seemed funny in my head.

    The Great British Baking Show is a wonderful thing. It was broadcast here in America on PBS.
    No yelling, no over the top drama, no sabotage, just people being creative in baked goods. In one episode a contestant dropped, or in some way accidentally destroyed the item they working on without enough time to restart. Everyone else ran over to console them, offer help, and I think one grabbed a cup of tea. It was all so British.

American cooking shows are all screaming insults in people’s faces and snarking at mistakes and laughing at people who’ve been set up to fail but Great British Baking Show is just about actually trying to do your best and supporting each other and learning baking tricks and being told how to do better next time instead of mocked. ❤️

      Yes! It is the thing I love most about it! There is no drama about who hates whom… it is just who baked well. Only American show that has come close for me is on SyFy (still hate that spelling) on Face Off. I honestly think the only reason it isn’t mean like other American reality shows is because the movie makeup industry is so small and there is Avery real chance contestants will have to work together IRL.

    Fun fact there is a sub genre of heart attack called sudden cardiac death where essentially you have a heart attack with no warning. I had it at 11 and I literally went from standing for the pledge to face planting in less that a minute. This is more common in women who typically don’t have the prolonged symptoms of a heart attack. That’s why women are more likely to die if they have a heart attack than men because men have more dramatically recognizable symptoms.

    I feel like your shirt is very relatable, today.
    I was thinking about your perfumes recently when watching a video about how whale vomit is some of the most precious "stones" of the sea, and how it contains stuff that's used in the scent industry to help scents stick around and last longer. All I could think while watching that video was, "'Whale vomit' sure sounds like a Simon scent, right up there with 'Rotting Turtle'. And it even references the association that this stuff really is used in the scents industry!"
    If you need a new line of scents, and this sounds appealing to you, please feel free to use it. If not, this was just an anecdote that I hope you enjoyed.
    Danny, as usual, did a great job writing up an entertaining script today, and I'm enjoying Sam's evolution of his Tangent meme.

    I have to correct Fact Boi on his statement about how heart attacks work during one of his tangents. The severity of a heart attack is what determines how quickly it can kill you. My grandfather on my dads side died from a severe heart attack that killed him so quickly he was dead before he hit the ground while out on a walk.
    Meanwhile my own father almost 2 years ago had a heart attack but it was less severe enough that we were able to get the paramedics who got him to the hospital where they were able to take care of the partial blockage causing the heart attack using stents.
    This can happen to animals as well not just humans. most things have a scale of some type. this is one.

    Back when I was 16/17 I was walking home from a houseparty. It was a manor house on the outskirts of town so a fairly long walk home and I made the mistake of not peeing before I left. I didn't even make it half way down the half mile or so driveway. I got to a section where one of the lights were out so it was total darkness. Lining pretty much the whole drive was a ditch followed by a fence and farmland so I went to roughly where, a very drunk me in total darkness thought the ditch was. I aimed for it and let rip. Didn't take long until I started getting a weird tickling sensation which quickly turned into a stinging yet numbing feeling, hard to explain but it was similar to pins and needles. Anyway still believing I was peeing in the ditch I thought maybe I'd stuck it into stinging nettles. I moved back grabbed my phone and shone the light only to realise I had infact been peeing over the ditch and directly onto the fence which apparently was electrified. No long lasting effects thankfully and I couldn't really say it was particularly painful just very uncomfortable and definitely not a pleasant experience
