There are few greater antipoles to me and "my whole thing" than my dad, but... He taught me the value of being cautious, and to take time to extensively evaluate pros and cons before I made important decisions. I took that ball and ran with it, and now I am routinely praised by my peers for my ability to foresee potential pitfalls and preemptively negate them, and reflexively I think of my dad who would suggest that it was just common sense.
Of course it's not just "common sense" -- but rather a curious mindset and an intentional thought process -- and you instilled that in me, Dad. Thank you.

I got my dad an Anker Bluetooth speaker a year or so ago that was subject to a recall due to the rechargeable battery inside presenting a fire hazard.
Fortunately, by way of the serial number, his was not one of the effected units, but I had the same question you did when I saw this article.
I always assumed they were just another way for people to broadcast mundane factoids about themselves to total strangers that don't care. Like an early form of social media, if you will.
Like I bet if alcohol was something you had to snort...
This reminded me of this ancient internet video where a few guys (allegedly) "inhale" alcohol by adding dry ice and breathing in the vapors. Doesn't look to be very effective, but if it was, I'd at least try it.
He might have meant to have intended to have done it, but we can't be sure just yet.
Also, what is the tactical advantage of shitting your pants?
Just think of all the time you save. It adds up!
SINGLED
According to this video, the important part is a V-shaped notch with bevelled edges, cut into some thin piece of plastic.
