INT. RECORDING STUDIO – DAY/NIGHT/DAY/NIGHT/DAY/NIGHT/DAY…

DJ 3000 and various other robot entities remain trapped in a time loop inside the KDFO recording studio. A miniaturized DJ 3000 continues to fiddle with a complicated contraption of wires and lenses, while a miniaturized PETUNIA and MAXIMILIAN and regular-sized PED-209 and JIM NANCE 081-RD-92C look on. 

DJ 3000: ALL RIGHT, PETUNIA. THAT’S ENOUGH GAWKING AT CHLOE ALLISTER’S ORCHIDS.

JOHN DIMAGGIO: OW! [slaps arm] Son of a bitch!

PETUNIA: What’s wrong?

JOHN DIMAGGIO: A fucking bee just stung me!

JOHN DIMAGGIO displays his upper arm, where a welt has appeared and is beginning to swell.

PED-209: [advancing menacingly] OH MY THAT IS A SHAME ALL RIGHT WELL LET’S JUST GO AHEAD AND PUT HIM OUT OF HIS MISERY.

PED-209 begins to spin up his syringe miniguns.

JOHN DIMAGGIO: Wait wait wait wait! Jesus, wait!

JOHNNY 2.5: [laughing] SUDDENLY THE GUY WHO’S FAMOUS FOR SAYING “KILL ALL HUMANS” DOESN’T THINK WE SHOULD KILL ANY HUMANS.

JOHN DIMAGGIO: That was just a joke!

PED-209: OF COURSE YOU’RE SAYING THAT NOW THAT YOU’RE IN THE CROSSHAIRS.

JIM NANCE 081-RD-92C: It’s fine, you’ll be good as new when the loop resets.

JOHN DIMAGGIO: Listen, I’m not terribly interested in experiencing death just so I can avoid the discomfort of a bee string for a few hours.

JOHNNY 2.5: DISCOMFORT?

PED-209: YOU’RE NOT DYING?

JOHN DIMAGGIO: No, of course I’m not dying! It’s just a beesting!

PED-209 lets his miniguns spin down. 

PED-209: OH.

JOHNNY 2.5: BUT I THOUGHT HUMANS WERE ALLERGIC TO BEE VENOM.

JOHN DIMAGGIO: Well, I mean, some are.  But I’m not. It’s just going to be sore for the rest of the day.

MAXIMILIAN: INTERESTING…SO WHAT OTHER KINDS OF THINGS ARE HUMANS ALLERGIC TO?

RUSSELL WILSON: Some are allergic to peanuts.

MAXIMILIAN: I SEE, I SEE.  ARE THERE ANY SUBSTANCES THAT ALL HUMANS ARE ALLERGIC TO?

JOHN DIMAGGIO: I guess…but really you’re just talking about poisons at that point.

RUSSELL WILSON: Unless you’re talking about substances that work more slowly, which I guess it’s more appropriate to refer to as “toxins”.

MAXIMILIAN: GOT ANY EXAMPLES?

RUSSELL WILSON: Oh, all kinds of hydrocarbons.  Any chemical with a benzene ring attached is pretty much instant cancer.

JOHNNY 2.5: IS RADIATION A TOXIN?

JOHN DIMAGGIO: I mean radiation is just radiation.  Though I guess any substance that produces radiation would be a toxin.

RQBOCOP: WHAT ABOUT A VAT OF CHEMICALS THAT CAUSE ONE OF YOUR ASSAILANTS TO BEGIN DISSOLVING INTO GOO WHILE STILL SHAMBLING AROUND?

JOHN DIMAGGIO: Yes, that would definitely be a toxin.

MAXIMILIAN: COOL, COOL, WELL THANKS FOR ALL THE IDEAS I MEAN INFORMATION.

DJ 3000: [taps clock display] HEY GUYS WE’VE GOT A REQUEST LINE TO GET TO, ANYONE GOT A TOPIC?

MAXIMILIAN: LET’S DO TOXINS!

RUSSELL WILSON: You mean like all the stuff we just talked about?

MAXIMILIAN: YEAH. PLUS THE ANIMALS THAT PRODUCE THEM, LIKE SNAKES AND SCORPIONS AND STUFF.

DJ 3000: WORKS FOR ME.

JOHN DIMAGGIO: Hey, wait.  How did that bee get in here…?

Today’s theme is “toxins”.  We’re looking for songs about substances (or the things that produce those substances) that are toxic to humans. Poison, venom, radiation, go wild.  This might be a thin topic so band names are fine, too.  Post links as “https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0rPr!5iN6 and they should embed in the comments after you refresh.  Last week’s puzzle answer was “Anyone Can Play Guitar” by the Radiohead, making it two in a row for SonOfSpam.  Let’s get to it!
