There are more exceptions to the “I before E except after C" rule than there are confirmations.

At the 2:58 mark of the final bridge in ‘Hey Jude,’ you can just barely hear Paul McCartney say 'fucking hell!’ after hitting a wrong piano key.

Paris syndrome is a mental disorder experienced mostly by Japanese tourists who are disappointed when they visit the city for the first time. The shock of Paris not living up to their expectations can cause depression, sweating, anxiety, dizziness, hallucinations and delusions of persecution. The Japanese Embassy in Paris has a 24-hour hotline for those needing help, and up to 20 tourists a year are hospitalized. The usual treatment for Paris syndrome is ‘to go home.’ Source Source 2 Source 3

There used to be a kids party game called ‘Poor Pussy.’ To play, everyone sits in a circle around the 'pussy.’ The pussy then has to kneel in front of someone and meow 3 times, and that person has to 'stroke the back of’ the pussy’s head and say 'poor pussy’ without laughing. If they laugh, they become the pussy, but if they don’t, 'the pussy must try someone else.’ Source Source 2 Source 3

What do I know about bombs?” Source Source 2 Source 3
