Coldwave 

Funnily enough, the name of two different genres:

French coldwave: a sort of proto-goth rock sound that developed in the late 70s.

American coldwave: guitar-driven electro/industrial music that enjoyed brief popularity in the early 90s.

To fans of both genres (author included), watching people get pissy about the difference can be very entertaining indeed.
French goth: mon amis, i hear you like ze coldwave?
US rivet head: yeah, bro, totally! just bought the new 16volt album, shit was SO cash...
French goth: qu'est-ce que c'est, 16volt? do you like trisomie 21?
US rivet head: who's that? have they remixed any Chemlab tracks?

Coldwater 

A hick town in southern Michigan. Knows best for their corn fields and meth labs. On any given weekend you're sure to find a bunch of coked up local drunks hanging out a shitty bar called 'Sirens' or in the parking lot of a Taco Bell Restaurant. Or the cool thing to really do is walk around Walmart and act cool.

And like its neighbor city in Ohio, the majority of the people born there will remain there for the rest of their lives because to them, Coldwater is the only world worth living in.

Word of the Day on November 3, 2026
Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
