We will make it ironic

Is lazy town classified as a cartoon? It's certainly in fever dream territory, no argument there.
True. There was that one annoying dude on GoT that experienced such.
Just a handful, but I usually will add a new one when it hooks me enough that I can't stop binging it.
I find I can generally wait, but I experience pain when a group decision can't be made. Just pick one already. We're not disarming a bomb, we're trying to get some dinner.
Lead, thallium, mercury... metals not friendly to direct human contact. I find it rad that if we add a few more protons we get a pretty, shiny metal that won't melt our brains.*
*that we know of
Many amine endings are like that for me. I'm hooked with fun action, adorable creatures, and badass robots, and then it just derails into endless monologuing.
But watching something when I'm not into it? Sometimes, just so I know what happened in the end. If I like some element of it enough, like the setting or one of the actors. Other times, a wiki plot synopsis will be enough to sate the curiosity. I'm getting better about not forcing myself to finish something I'm just not into.
If it's to be a celebration of life not in a church or funeral home, somber dress is less of a norm. I wore my mom's favorite color (purple).
I'm very sorry for your loss.
Typical attire is dark clothes, little to no patterned fabric, suit or jacket if you have one, dress, slacks, dress shirt, cardigan if you need extra layers. Navy blue, charcoal grey, brown, black, colors like that. Nothing "loud". Subdued jewelry. You're not there to draw attention to yourself. You're there to comfort the grieving, process your own grief, and remember good things about the departed.
That said, I have been to some funerals where the only clothes some ppl had were jeans and a shirt. Their demeanor was appropriate and respectful, and no one judged them.
Seems to be radius
I live next to protected wetlands and in a generally swampy area. Yes, there are clouds of insects.
I'm not a fan of spiders and dealing with cobwebs, but since moving here, I have declared a truce with them. We try not to keep any lights on near doors to minimize bugs getting into the house when we come and go. And UV sticky traps are very effective and always shock me with how many they can accrue overnight. We have a regular bug service coming too. Creepy crawlies are just part of life here.

Did you have any unintentionally creepy objects as a child, or afraid of a particular place/room?
(lemm.ee)
Mom hung a mass produced art print on my bedroom wall when I was about 8. It's of a little girl holding her puppy.
Cute, right?
Thing is, this painting terrified me. And I was raised in the time where you just kind of swallowed any complaints and didn't bother mom or dad with kid foolishness.
Here is a copy of the thing I actually had hanging on my wall. This same frame. Probably came from Service Merchandise or some such.
What in the everloving hell is lurking just over her shoulder?!?! To me it always looked like a skull wearing a hat on the side of his head, like a little old timey jaunty hat a clown would wear.
It's a wonder I got any sleep. I was too afraid to tell mom I hated it. I never considered that I possessed the agency to take it off my wall and hide it at the bottom of the closet.
I think of this cursed painting still.
Did you ever have something in your childhood that unnecessarily scared the bejeezus out of you?

I always thought this is why Olive Garden, Red Lobster, whatever 80s/90s fad chain restaurant sang their own birthday songs for patrons.
