Received a phone call. Transcript:

Me: (10 seconds of silence because who the fuck are you)

Person: you keep calling my number.

Me: no I don’t

Person: oh my God... (hangs up)

Me: okay cool

Look, we need to raise a psychopath who will murder God, we have no time to be spending on cooking.

the way your fingertips plant meaningless soliloquies makes me think you are the true evil among us.

This is one of those situations where we all want an explanation. I feel like if we understood why that stranger said "Oh my God" then we'd all know a great deal more about the universe.

Link mouseover gives it away you know.... Not fooled after the first time with the exact same text, lol.

Though seriously, I don't get what's WTF about the actual article.

No idea what's caused this chain of interactions, as the article isn't very interesting.

So you know how TVTropes has one of those "this is page number X that you've viewed today" kinda like NYT/Washington Post/other sites? It doesn't seem to do anything other than complain at you. There's no actual limit on the number of ad-free pages you can see (or at least, I'm currently on #22 in one day).

In other news, please send help, I've been sucked into TVTropes and I can't get out.

Well, TVTropes is generally held to be quite addictive, yes?
I'm guessing the counter is there to show you just how out-of-control your current binge is.

I'm in my sister's house.

I may have knocked the light from her ceiling, so that only the wire is hanging down.

Ummmm..... anyone any idea how to fix this before death by sibling?

Step 1 is turning off the part of the house's electrical system connected to that light if you insist on fixing it yourself (usually done by flipping the relevant circuit breaker switch). It's probably a good idea regardless, since you're describing a naked wire hanging from the ceiling.

That aside, if you're lucky it screws back on and you just forcibly pulled that out. There's still the issue of the wire that you might have torn apart. I'd honestly recommend someone who knows something about this (call an electrician, find a friend with a lot of experience with stuff like this, etc.) due to the risk of electrocuting yourself/starting an electrical fire, especially if there are no obvious easy fixes. In this case, your primary concerns will be 1. avoiding death by sister by figuring out the right way to explain what happened and 2. paying for repairs (which shouldn't won't be too much).
