Traffic Light Event Horizon

While approaching a green traffic light when driving, it's the point you make a mental note of, X feet before the intersection, where you're going through light even if it turns to yellow. X varies on the mph of the vehicle and the risk-tolerance of the driver. A feeling of relaxation often accompanies passing the event horizon of a traffic light, in particular when in a rush or for known long red lights.
I thought for sure we were already passed the traffic light event horizon, but Becky slammed on the breaks when the light turned yellow and my blue coconut slush fell and spilled all over the floormat or her Hyundai Elantra.

Turn Out the Lights

l e a v i n g l a s t ? t u r n o u t t h e l i g h t s !

Turn Out The Lights (also known as Jerry Kilowatt) is a creature created by Trevor Henderson.

Appearance

Since there is only 1 picture of TOTL, with him being only a silhouette, so it is unknown what exactly he looks like. However, it is presumed that he looks like the figure on the sign in the picture reading "Leaving last? Turn out the lights!", a cartoon character that appears to look like it's from an old show, similar to the other cartoon monsters. He has dark zig-zag shaped limbs and a white, light bulb head. He also has white gloves with the lines commonly seen among cartoon characters, and on the gloves of Cartoon Cat and Cartoon Dog, supporting the theory that he is their relative, or has a similar origin.
