A retired rock group best known for songs such as "I'm a Believer," "Last Train to Clarksville," "Daydream Believer (Cheer Up, Sleepy Jean)," and "A Little Bit Me, A Little Bit You." While they disbanded and reformed several times since their inception in the 1960's, they ultimately remained active for well over fifty years before embarking on a farewell tour that concluded in November 2021.
The Monkees were composed of four musicians. Three were American, and one was British. They are as follows:
-George Michael Dolenz, Jr. (Micky Dolenz; Born March 8, 1945)
-Robert Michael Nesmith (Michael Nesmith; December 30, 1942 - December 10, 2021)
-David Thomas Jones (Davy Jones; December 30, 1945 - February 29, 2012. Yes, he died on leap day.)
-Peter Tork (Born Peter Halsten Thorkelson; February 13, 1942 - February 21, 2019)

Whether or not the saying "Two wrongs don't make a right" is morally correct has been heavily disputed to this day.
For the most part, the saying has been demonized due to it being used as a quick comeback for when an asshole who just got what he deserved cannot think of anything better to say. Think of The Golden Rule: "Treat others the way you wish to be treated."

A very serious (and highly misunderstood) symptom of Sensory Deprivation Disorder -- itself a symptom of Autism Spectrum Disorder -- where a person gets too overwhelmed by the world around them, causing extremely irrational behavior.
The most common cause is too much noise, especially the sounds of multiple people talking at once. However, one loud talker (or one loud, irritating sound) is usually enough to trigger it. When a person is going into sensory overload, they will usually exhibit signs of extreme distress, such as clutching their head to shield their eyes and/or ears. They may become extremely irritable, lashing out at just about anyone. They may also wince or flinch if it comes on suddenly.
People who suffer from it often describe the feeling as though they are being attacked, and that their mind is so clouded that they lose all rational thought. And of course, being a symptom of autism, there is no cure.
If you see someone exhibiting these symptoms, especially the wincing, you should immediately shut the fuck up and make sure everyone in the room does so too. The only way to stop a bout of sensory overload is for everything to be totally silent for about 15-30 minutes.

If you want to know what sensory overload feels like, listen to the music that plays during the Death Egg Zone in Sonic 2, before the two final bosses. Everything feels terrifying and distorted, while your mind is just trying to calm down and pretend that everything is okay when it's not.
It's a very real disorder and it deserves more attention.
