It's all about choices, Faith. The ones we make, and the ones we don't. Oh, and the consequences. Those are always fun.

Dear Lord! I picked up some Mucinex at the grocery store last night and they wanted to know my birthdate. Seems it's now a "controlled substance"!
aren't those usually more fun?

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
demonstration of psychological perception
I... watched the video and my screen was too dark even for me to be able to follow the passers dressed in white. The passers dressed in black might all have been moonwalking bears for all I could tell.
My favorite version of this, done on Harvard campus I think, was the one where a person would strike up a conversation with a stranger, two people with a mirror or large object would walk between them, and then when the obstruction was gone, the stranger would be talking to a different person.
I want to say there's also been a version done with people randomly showing up wearing gorilla suits, but that's mostly because I just think that college psychology students would pay cash munny for the opportunity to improve the scientific record while wearing a gorilla suit.
