I gave my laptop a juice bath and it started broadcasting old songs

I was finishing up some work late last night when I knocked over a full glass of orange juice. It poured right onto my keyboard, and I instantly thought my laptop was done for. After wiping it down and letting it dry, I tried turning it on. Instead of my usual desktop, all I heard was static coming from the speakers. Then, out of nowhere, a clear radio signal kicked in, playing music from the 1980s. I don't have any radio apps, and this laptop doesn't even have a built-in tuner. For a whole week, every time I booted up, it would tune into some random oldies station. It made me realize that sometimes our biggest mistakes can lead to the most puzzling everyday mysteries. Has anyone experienced something this odd with their gadgets?

My friend's tablet picked up police radio after a soda spill.

Wait, what kind of glitch even causes that? That's a really rough break for your friend, @singh.jordan. Just a soda spill leading to an electronic mess and a weird police radio pickup.

That sounds like a really strange accident.
