    Wow, thanks for sharing your experience! Someone I'm very close with has OCD, and she also recently explained it to me in a way that really made me (a non-haver of OCD) understand how she experienced it, and this helped me understand it better, too. Thanks, and hope you're doing better now!

    OCD can be a debilitating disease - Really glad to hear that he seems to have a handle on it!

    RIP to a true All Star. [According to Rolling Stone,](https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/steve-harwell-smash-mouth-singer-dead-obituary-1234817636/) he died due to liver failure. I saw other reports that the liver failure was induced by his alcoholism. If you or someone you know has a drinking problem, please, seek help before it is too late!

    One variant of this I encounter is driving in the rain. I moved to SoCal from NY, and everyone here freaks out when it so much as drizzles, and there is always insane traffic due to accidents upon any precipitation...

  • What's your favorite music trope?

    Not sure if this is a trope per se, but I love when sounds don't sound "perfect" - the producer kept in a little vocal waver, or the snare isn't hit with the exact same intensity every time. The little imperfections make it feel/sound like real humans are playing the music!

    I agree. I think I read articles implying he was suffering from long covid for a while, too, which probably doesn't help the likelihood of him coming back, let alone as an effective NHL player
