wait WHAT

Wait, so… does -copter come *from* helicopter? 

Yep! This is called rebracketing. Another famous example would be “-burger”: the original food item is named after the German city, [Hamburg]+[er], but got semantically reinterpreted as [ham]+[burger]. Now it’s used as a suffix indicating a type of sandwich.

Tell me this is some kind of joke

Also, painstaking isn’t a combination of pain-staking, but actually pains-taking

I’m…I’m sorry, I just this minute realized that there are people out there who have no idea that Heinz Doofenshmirtz is the best fictional father out there. You guys don’t mind if I bombard your entire dashboard with proof right? Excellent.

Literally I could go on and on with examples but my computer’s starting to crash from the amount of images.

The point is that Heinz Doofenshmirtz is the greatest fictional father out there and anyone who says otherwise was hit by a Lie-inator.

tl;dr this woman was hearing creepy phantom nursery rhymes every night and it turned out to be a local industrial building’s alarm system, being triggered by spiders on the motion detectors

which is all well and good but “we investigated the creepy nursery rhymes, and it turns out it’s spiders” is one hell of a true statement

why is your alarm system a creepy child singing about an old man’s death

england ur messed up

now that i have read the article: i revise my opinion, england ur clever af. it’s a theft deterrent system. it’s intended to creep the ever living fuck out of anyone sneaking onto the business park grounds after hours.

unfortunately, they had their motion detector set so that spiders walking across the lenses set it off.

no word on whether the spiders found the singing creepy.
