anyone ever get that moment where you could be having a great fine time and then suddenly everything, the world, just goes completely silent and lonely for no reason and literally everything feels so empty and you feel so hollow

The Russian writer Nabokov once mentioned an anecdote about a misprint in a newspaper article on the coronation of Russian tzar: instead of “корона” [crown], they wrote “ворона” [crow]. On the next day they apologised for the misprint, correcting it to “корова” [cow].
But the interesting thing is that against all odds the word play works in English as well as in Russian:
корона → ворона → корова
crown → crow → cow
