Reply to TIL that an unknown 19th century Japanese artist painted a parody of the sacred scene of the Buddha's death that is commonly called the "Penis Paranirvana", in which the dying Buddha is replaced by a giant anthropomorphic penis being mourned by women and other penises. by JosephvonEichendorff
This is the first thing I thought of.

I’m surprised no one has attempted to make routine appendix removal a thing. It’s just as illogical as routine wisdom teeth removal.

I kept mine. I’m currently 34 and they’ve given me no major issues yet. I don’t understand getting major surgery because something might happen. How about do nothing unless that complication happens?

Reply to TIL one of the first use of avant-garde technique of tape manipulation in music was the 1955 hit "Jingle Bells" by The Singing Dogs. Using a razor, Carl Weismann cut, then spliced sounds of dog barks together, correcting speed, pitch and melody of the resulting tape. It reached #22 on Billboard. by Bubbly-Incident
This is a song I play on very long car rides when I start to go insane.
I also didn’t realize it was that old.

Reply to TIL: The Government of Canada has an office that creates coats of arms for Canadian citizens, and that all Canadian Citizens may apply to the Governor General for a coat of arms and even an officially-recognized personal flag by ryguy_1
I’m currently in the process of getting Canadian citizenship. I’m going to look into this once I get it.
