Before Napster I spent hours bouncing from one sketchy pop-up filled MP3 download site to the next trying to find every song on an album

Aw! You found MP3 files? I had to settle mostly for .WAV files. Did you also have CD-RW instead of CD-R discs you lucky dog you?

I somehow talked my grandmother into buying me a Sony external CD burner at Best Buy around that time. It could RW but I only had Rs.

Nope. If you're lucky it's got a blank plug you can remove to plug in your charger or whatever.

Nope smoking is 10th fiddle to charging things in the 21st century. Also its something they can charge extra for.
SomethingsShadow
No, since it's a cigarette lighter and smoking has gone way downhill. It's spot has mostly been repurposed as a DC power outlet.

My sister bought a new Hyundai and it has one, with the lighter attachment and all.

It's a cig lighter
Ginkawa
its a cigarette lighter. you know the DC Power outlet in many cars? the inch or so cylindrical one? basically this thing plugs into that
Ginkawa
you push it in to activate it, and the coily bit shorts the power and heats up enough to light a cigarette.

It totally nailed the eerie sense of malaise/impending doom, exactly how I felt reading the book. None of the others quite got it imho 2/2

The acting was positively awful, but it had to be on purpose, because they were all (otherwise) talented actors.

Theres’a too much P and not not enough H
asdfertjryjre
Low pH. Remember, low pH is acidic, high pH is alkaline.
Thormaehlin
Anything above or below 7.2 will have the same effect. If it is above 7.2 then the pool water leaches from your eye to try and balance.
DrunkSnowWhite
"We measured the pH of the pools in your water park, sir" "And? What did you find???" "......it was....it was all pee, no H."
Jusmar
But chloramine is usually used at a ph of 7.2+, it is higher.
asdfertjryjre
But pee is slightly acidic, so it's lower.
Jusmar
That urine and other amine is reacting with chlorine in the water to turn into basic chloramine which irritates your eyes regardless of ph.
Jusmar
Even then, I highly doubt they're letting out enough pee to change the Ph in any meaningful way.
DivinesDukes
But technically high ph levels will still burn
asdfertjryjre
Yeah, but pee is still acidic.
