I got 60%, which is surprising because I have a muppet phobia. Know your enemy, I guess.

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
WHAT.

I guess it's kind of like me being able to correct people who thought Ratzinger was actually a Nazi back in WWII.

PEOPLE HAVE MUPPET PHOBIAS. THIS IS NOT WEIRD.
They are very irrational. And they have huge mouths. Huge cavernous red mouths that they flap while they sing at you.
My muppet phobia was problematic for my childhood church that had a puppet ministry. Terrifying.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
And they laugh with their whole heads. That's not normal.

I agree with this girl with regards to the Muppets.

Oh god, that's like an episode of Arrested Development.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
It was so awful. I used to have to sit backwards in the chair during performances. Which I'm sure was disconcerting to the other children, let alone the performers, who were just older children. But seriously, people. Puppets. Singing about Jesus. With their giant flapping red maws. And wobbly eyes that weren't looking at anything. And apparently broken necks. And flailing arms. It was traumatic.
I'm amused by myself because I keep editing this post to add more muppet horrors. They're really bad, man, I'm telling you.

I got 90%. Only one I missed was the first one.
I scared my husband.

Okay, I thought you were joking until you expounded on this point a few posts later. Liese, I apologize profusely, but I cannot stop laughing.
It reminds me of a friend of mine in college who said as a little girl she was traumatized by "Gilligan's Island." She could not get over the constant stress of them trying to leave the island and they never could. She would make her parents turn the channel whenever the show came on.
