I usually eat a simple Porridge, but if I want to make something fancy on a weekend I make pancakes for my family.

Yeah but people are highly aware of it and there is even a disclaimer in Email Signatures that everything is tracked. If you are dealing with government ministries in European countries some of the (unofficial) information exchange is done without written record, either at in-person conferences or even through non-work phones.

Highly illegal in the EU. Also highly stupid everywhere else. The big question is "How secure is your user espionage system and can an outsider get acces?". The data from something like this is a social engineering goldmine.

IBM built the punch card machines that were used to organise the Holocaust and they were a good American company.

So this school was built on an ancient Pleistocene burial ground. I know that trope well enough to know what happened next

The one recommended by the health insurance companies kills you early and fast after your pay-in period without causing large healthcare costs.

It's Twilight Zone, but only the twists

You're taking a vacation from normalcy. The setting, a weird motel where the bed is stained with mystery, and there's also some mystery floating in the pool. Your key card may not open the exercise room because someone smeared mystery on the lock, but it will open... The Scary Door.

Smoking was discovered independently in many cultures with different substances used by different cultures. In the Americas, it was tobacco, while the Scythians of Central Asia used cannabis in ritualistic hotboxes, as evidenced by archaeological finds of smoking tools in kurgans. Other regions, like India and Southeast Asia, saw the smoking of opium and herbs.

 

Examples: Itchy & Scratchy from The Simpsons, The Scary Door from Futurama, or The Grand Inquisitor from Dostoevsky.
