I saw that there is a new show called Monster on Netflix where each season is about a Serial killer. Are we not bored of this yet? I would much rather watch a show about cool people doing cool things instead of the continuous glamorization of evil.

maybe it wasn't a good idea to setup that script that plays Salt-N-Pepa's Push It every time I push code changes to my git repo.
