"We are proud to announce that Google Kitchen Tools will no longer be available on Sep 1st 2020, nor has it ever been available. Should you wish to export your Google Kitchen Tools data, you should be aware that there is no data, as Google Kitchen Tools has never existed.
Thanks,

What's an underrated horror movie you think deserves more eyeballs? I'll start
May (2002, a Frankenstein romance starring Angela Bettis)
The Church / La Chiesa (1989, a supernatural horror produced by Dario Argento and directed by Michele Soavi)
Rituals (1977 Canuxploitation/rednecksploitation similar to Deliverance)
Dead Heat (a 1988 horror comedy buddy starring cop zombie Treat Williams and Joe Piscopo)

People in contemporary broadcast media, probably just USA:
When I worked in radio we used to use the term OPI to refer to obscenity, profanity, and indecency. Is that ever used any more? Was it ever widespread or was it limited to my station/area/state/etc?
