  • " life really gets in the way." Life? You're no real xangan.

    And I can tell that the one abut google images is true. The one about DNA information, too, as well as the way to avoid cramps while running.

    I shall hope I got the third one right. No clue about the rest.

    May you have a great week!

  • EW! I hope 80% of snakes DON'T have feet! :-O

    These are cool facts! I want ALL of them to be TRUE!!! :-)

    Please let us know which ones are true. I'm thinking the sex doll one, the John L. one, and Borat one are true. ??? Beyond that I'm not sure.

    HUGS!!! :-D

  • Don't talk about my boyfriend that way.

    Jimmy Fallon foreverrrrrrr!

    • there are times when I like his show and other times when it's just "meh" to me. All I know is that he's better than Leno and should be taking over sooner.

  • Great post, Godfather! I especially love the MST costume--brilliant! And the Belle Rosen doll is pretty cool. I didn't know they made action figures from that movie. As disaster movies go, Poseiden was good.

  • I think the one about dreaming in black and white is true, I read it on buzzfeed. (Which is a source of scholarly information, for sure).

    That MST3K costume is awesome. I should share it on facebook because I have some friends who are HUGE fans and they'd be like "WHOA!"

    • yeah that one about dreaming is true and I saw that recently on Buzzfeed as well...actually I saw it was shared by someone I follow on Tumblr. Buzzfeed has it's own Tumblr site so it has to be a source for wisdom.
      1, 2, 5, 6, 9, 10, 13, 14, 17, 18 are the true ones
      My friends and I used to do the MST3K schtick with a lot of the movies we watched. I think we had more fun doing that than watching the actual movies. I also remember during college we'd get up early on Saturdays or stay up late on Sundays watching that show in the dorm TV lounge.
