A 1990 episode of The Cosby Show is centered around Cosby's character feeding everyone his special barbecue sauce, which, unknown to the participants, covertly makes people cooperative and sexually aroused. [89] Philly.com writer Nick Vadala, in an article titled "‘Cosby Show’ episode features Cliff Huxtable drugging partygoers with mystical barbecue sauce", described Cosby's dialogue within the episode as "chilling" when seen in light of current accusations.[89]

Strictly speaking, the use of the word "science" in "rocket science" is a misnomer since science is about understanding the origins, nature, and behavior of the universe; engineering is about using scientific and engineering principles to solve problems and develop new technology.[15][16] However, the media and the public often use "science" and "engineering" as synonyms.[15][16][17]

Wizard rock (sometimes shortened as Wrock) is a genre of rock music that developed between 2002 and 2004 in the United States. Wizard rock bands are characterized by their performances and humorous songs about the Harry Potter universe.[1][2] Wizard rock initially started in Massachusetts with Harry and the Potters, though it has grown internationally.[3][4]

scientists get high on their own farts about how important it is that they watch ocelots bone or subject mercury to 9000 different electric currents or whatever

engineers build stuff while assuming that they're doing a good job of it because they are an engineer regardless of whether they're an idiot or not

there I summed it all up

Sometimes editors will insist on citations for material simply because they dislike it or prefer some other material, not because the material in any way needs verification.

Scenario: You type into Wikipedia, 'Public exposure of male sexual organs to women and children is generally considered child abuse, indecency, or dishonorable.' Your reasoning is that what you consider a basic feature of etiquette doesn't even appear in academic literature: it is common-sense. However, in different cultures or subcultures, men might do so without shame or dishonor.[1][2]
