‘Soup’ was a slang term for drugs that were injected into a horse to make it run faster.
A racehorse that was on PEDs was said to be ‘souped up.’

A gigantic spiderweb was recently discovered in an underwater cave on the Greece-Albania border.
The web spans about 1,000 square feet and houses more than 110,000 spiders.
TBH, the underwater cave feels like overkill.

The earliest known example of ‘brain rot’ comes from Henry David Thoreau in his 1854 book “Walden.”
“While England endeavors to cure the potato-rot, will not any endeavor to cure the brain-rot, which prevails so much more widely and fatally?”
