While this is legitimately awful, I keep seeing this story, and my brain keeps singing "every human testicle" in the tune of Gilbert and Sullivan's major-general's song, and I am not going to suffer alone.

Well, to respond, your skeet promptly made me get 'every sperm is sacred' stuck in my head, so there's another 'be careful where you sing it' earworm for you.

You are all very lucky I was unable to find a photo of one of those trick jugs where the milk is plastic and it’s like, floating in midair. ‘Cause I had a truly tasteless joke ready to go.

Microplastics in every song? Why not, we've already found them everywhere else.
