Beef, Father of the BB (the anti piracy meme cat), has passed away

For those who don't know. Before the switch 2 came out, I posted on here saying that the switch 2 had an anti piracy feature that would show an edited image of my cat BB when you put in a pirated game card. Around 2 weeks after the Switch 2 launched, BB passed away.

Earlier yesterday, Her father, Beef, who she was named after, passed away. I'm not attempting to gain karma by posting this. I just wanted to let you all know that they are together again.

Our Beef passed away unexpectedly this morning

We have no idea why. He was at least 4 years old and probably less than 5. He was just dead. He was completely fine the day before and last night.

Anyone else have weird and irrational fears as a child?

I did.

The vacuum cleaner from the Teletubbies. I wouldn't eat from any bowls or plates featuring that show even if the vacuum wasn't featured on them.

Flushing public toilets. I wasn't scared of anyone else flushing them i just didn't want to do it myself. Toilets at home were fine though.

For a few days I was afraid of the tiled floor in my elementary school's gym. I thought it would fall in or something. Yet previously I was completely fine with walking on a glass floor in another building.

The lights going out at the store. I wasn't even necessarily afraid of the dark. That happened one time while my dad and I were at the store and that one moment made me fear going to the store with him. Only him though, it was fine if mom was there.

Even when I got over my fear of the gym floor I was afraid of these things called "sunspots" that we used in gym class. They were small rubber circles that we would stand on and once again I thought they might make the floor fall.

At some point I was afraid to sleep on my side because I thought it would damage my brain.

Pufferfish. I have no idea why.

Air compressors. For whatever reason we had one about 15 years ago and I absolutely hated the sound of it. The vacuum didn't scare me and neither did any other loud sounds except for...

Balloons. I was terrified of balloons popping.

The stick shifter on manual vehicles. My father had 2 manual trucks and he always told me if I touched it the truck would start rolling. I had many nightmares about that and it actually took me a while to realize that it was a MAJOR exaggeration.

Almost every time I get an "order is ready for pickup" notification, the order is NOT ready for pickup. This happens to me almost every time I get an order specifically from McDonald's but Taco Bell is bad with it too.

Im standing in taco bell right now. I got a notification 10 minutes ago that the order was ready to be picked up and I've heard nothing about it.

Why do they always do this? If the order isn't ready then don't mark it as such.

Location: Indiana

At the end of last year there was an incident that lead to me having my license suspended recently until I got SR22 insurance. I went on the BMV portal and saw that my license was suspended and that there was a $250 reinstatement fee. A day after we got the SR22 insurance, I went on there again and it said my license was now valid and the suspension was no longer active although the reinstatement fee due is still shown.

Is there a specific amount of time I have to pay that? And why is my license valid again even though I haven't paid it. Not complaining but I'd like to know.

Back in elementary school we would have programs where we would sing songs and our parents would come and watch. One of these programs was a yearly Christmas program that featured somewhat amiliar songs such as Jingle Bell Rock and Christmas Time is Here. I've been able to find every song I remember from this program except for one.

One of the songs was about bells. I know that it started with the words "I'm a bell" and that you see "me" every Christmas day. I don't remember much else but I think the program itself also called for actual bells to be used during that song. The song itself was either sung by children or possibly teens. Overall it sounded more feminine.

I have looked all around the internet through search formatting and such to find this song and the only trace of its existence I can find is, of course, one of my own posts. I have entered every combination of "im a bell" "hear me play" "Christmas day" into Google and most of the time I get zero results. My parents occasionally videoed my sister and I during these programs but none of those clips feature the song in question.

There's a group known as Kids From The Heart that produces christmas music for children that sounds like they might have made it but I'm yet to find any evidence to support that. The only proof I have that suggests that it existed is a short clip of me "parodying" the song back in 2015 which I will provide a link to in the replies as well as a link to my old post on TOMT. The only other person that would most likely know the song is the fine arts teacher from that year and I have no idea who she is or where she is now.

In the early 2010s there was a brand of toys called Deskpets that were similar to hexbugs. They were all remote controlled robotic toys except for one of them. The Solar Pet Rock. It was shown off in one video on their YouTube channel and there are only a few images of them online and none of them feature the original packaging. I've never seen then listed anywhere for sale even used.

I've seen many videos and images of all their other toys except for the Solar Pet Rock.

Was it just a prototype?
