I was at my parents' house and Captain Holt from Brooklyn 99 was coming over for dinner. There are three brick steps separating two rooms in the house, and apparently the bottom step was slippery and dangerous. So my parents covered the step with this inflatable plastic sheet thing they bought specifically for the occasion and plugged it i so Captain Holt wouldn't slip when he arrived. There was a light-up sign on the sheet saying that if you stepped on it, it would deliver a fatal dose of jellyfish electric poison. I was terrified every time I or someone else went up or down the stairs. Then I figured out a brilliant solution - unplug the device so that it wouldn't deliver the electric poison but people would still think it would and therefore avoid the slippery step (because the sign was still there). It worked!

Based got my last one.
It was alarming to hear your voice

That does sound alarming.

I forget/never realized that you all have voices.

dumb this down for me
Peroxides are really reactive moieties - consider H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) and how it fizzes when you use it in home use. Generally a peroxide [n-O-O-n] won't make it into a molecule because it would break down too quickly. But this compound is a natural product (meaning they literally found it in nature - looks like in tea / spice, in this case) and something you could never, ever make in the lab.... I get anxiety just thinking about that synthesis.
While I still don't understand what you're talking about, I appreciate the fact that someone did something really hard. Humans are awesome.
That they are. And in this case, well deserving of the Nobel Prize.

Awww, you don't mean it.

Slightly less crazy now, which is nice.
