For some reason I read this as "garbage disposals are scary" and then I got a flashback to reading a Stephen King novel as a child (iirc it was Firestarter) where a character commits suicide by sticking their arm into their kitchen garbage disposal, it horrified me at the time and appears to have remained deeply embedded in my personal neural network...

- saberience 2y agoHopefully I didn't trigger too many folks... judging by the "votes" on my post, I may have done. Ah well, you can't please everybody!
- samatman 2y agoI believe the kiddos refer to this as "trauma dumping". The topic was programming. You switched it to horrific mutilation. Don't do that.
- saberience 2y agoOh come on, kids are watching movies like Goodfellas and Casino. Me mentioning someone losing an air is hardly going to give anyone sleepless nights.
