It's all in the details



This is a Sharon Kovacs picture off Spotify 


You're probably confused by the picture above. I will get to that in the moment.

Now, every year in December Spotify graciously presents me with a list of songs and artists I listened the most throughout the year, all wrapped up in a fancy slideshow. No surprise there, Sharon Kovacs got the top spot. I really like her seductive voice with a tiny bit of a lisp. This song, Bang Bang, is not only quite kinky, here is a bit of a taste of Ms Kovacs' lyrical talents:

Baby oh, come to me
Like you used to down on your knees
You do as you're told
Wearing your blindfold
Here on the rubber sheet

Baby, don't be scared
You're all tied up and going nowhere
So take a moment
Savor the moment
And then realize how much I care

...but it was a completely different line that kept me awake at night:

You're chillin' out at minus ten degrees
Inside my deepfreeze

Mind you, the song is about a murder, I listened to it numerous times, and that line "minus ten degrees" rubbed the wrong way, time after time. Finally, my inner nerd takes the matter into its own hands and goes to check the freezer setting (hence, the picture) AND googles the recommended settings as well. 

My inner nerd to Ms Kovacs: 
Darling, your food and whatever else you are keeping there will go bad, if you won't change the setting to minus eighteen. Please, for my sanity sake.

Or maybe she knew that it should be eighteen, but the word is one syllable longer, and she decided to use ten instead. Or being the artistic spirit, she doesn't care about her freezer setting and doesn't use it at all. I wonder, if I found that line, are there any other trolls, for the lack of a better word, already discussing it on Reddit or Quora. Should I research the matter any further? Should I make Google cry from desperation? Hmm, so many questions. 

Thank you for reading my PSA and the vent of the day! You are more that welcome to vent in the comments.

  1. She needs a good spanking for leaving her freezer on 10 but YOU need a good spanking for reminding her!
