Well, it should be simple enough to work out if the contest really happened, right? And if they did have a contest and had a ringer win, that's bad juju.
Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Could an amatuer do that on a Mac?
Yeah, pretty easily.
(Finally got it to load, and I'M AT WORK which means no sound. Curses!)
The sets & props are a little suspiciously thorough.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The video for The Joker is, as you’d expect for Fatboy Slim, very special indeed. Jon Watts returns after the success of his Wonderful Night video to direct hundreds of kittens in a rights of passage tale…it has to be seen to be believed.

hip deep in pie
The Fatboy Slim video looked too professional (and expensive) to be done by some woman on the Internet. I think she's just a framing device, not a real person.
I totally made that assumption too.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

ION, why must Neurology be *impossible* to search?

It's a bit of a shame, but I totally don't care for the cover of the song. Not enough to watch the video twice.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I just emailed someone asking a question that I immediately found the answer to via Google. I am now rolling my eyes forever at myself.
Also, and I'm not even congested, but I swear my nose is whistling when I breathe. Ew.

Hmm. I've been operating on the assumption that a 2-4 year age difference (guy older than chick) is normal for Western society. Well, at least in the places I've lived, and for married couples.
I realise that my generation might be mucking things up a bit, but it certainly held for my parents.
Am I on crack? Have things changed for my generation? I haven't even sat down and tried to work out how to google for those stats yet.

When you're racing - it's life. Anything that comes before or after is just waiting.
Congrats bon bon. What specifically are you searching for in regards to neurology? I might be able to help you narrow down your search.

I don't think so. If you look at the median age for marriage, for men it is a couple years older than for women, so while that doesn't describe every couple, it implies a trend. I found this : [link]
