This comic is inspired by XKCD and recent events and observations in my life. Disclaimer: I have no artistic ability and blatantly rip off the XKCD style and artwork, however the idea is mine and I feel it fits.

edit: so it seems that if there is significant day/night temperature difference in your home, that can be a factor and it may not be only about selective memory.

Thanks, really no need to apologize. I had assumed it was just selective memory myself and hadn't considered the temp/voltage drop possibility, but now we have learned something.
