I bet octopuses think bones are horrific. I bet all their cosmic horror stories involve rigid-limbs and hinged joints.— CryptoNaturalist (@CryptoNature) July 26, 2018

Now I see black vampires who decorate their fangs with elaborately designed gold fronts. Floral, filigree, you name it. https://t.co/FsADvEXLvb— Sarah M: Okoye's Wig Retriever (@killianfantasy) July 29, 2018

Guardian:
The quest to master English in Korea is often called the yeongeo yeolpung or “English frenzy”. Although mostly confined to a mania for instruction and immersion, occasionally this “frenzy” spills over into medical intervention. As Sung-Yul Park relates: “An increasing number of parents in South Korea have their children undergo a form of surgery that snips off a thin band of tissue under the tongue … Most parents pay for this surgery because they believe it will make their children speak English better; the surgery supposedly enables the child to pronounce the English retroflex consonant with ease, a sound that is considered to be particularly difficult for Koreans.”
There is no evidence to suggest that this surgery in any way improves English pronunciation.
