It's hot hot hot

"It's a hot hot hot"
"TZZT!"

I have no idea how this makes any sense because as far as I know, heating elements don't make electric "bzzt!" sounds if you make contact. It's more like "ssssss" of your skin searing on the hot surface.

Segueing from this, John had a discussion about how boys and girls are wired differently. Boys have the innate ability of making and imitating battle/weapon sounds like "ratatatta" "brr-rr-rr-rr-rrrrrt" "bwoooom" and other onomatopoeia, while girls apparently can't do it as John's daughters asked him how boys do it.
