If every vampire who said he was at the crucifixion was actually there, it would have been like Woodstock.

Or you could sing Raspberry Beret.

I never new that Emma Thompson adopted a Rwandan refugee. Here's a story about his graduation from college: [link]

Also my people on Facebook are telling me that Zappos was just bought by Amazon.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I don't know how to drive stick. Nobody in my family does, so I never learned.

I've always loved her. Now I love her even more.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

This SOUNDS like a Snopes-ish internet myth, but mom swears she saw the car in the gym..

My dad also swears this was done while he was at MIT. So either they went to school together, this is an urban legend, or it's a lot easier than it sounds.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I've heard two versions of it myself. I don't think it's all that hard to do.

I'll believe almost anything my dad tells me about MIT pranks because MIT is full of batshit crazy nerds.

ION, I love YouTube. The same moment BabyCenter sends me a "Refreshingly Realistic TV Guidelines for 2-4 year olds" email, Dylan is cackling like a maniac while this plays on my second monitor. (It's his second-favorite, after Manahmanah.)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

We did that to a friend of mine in college. Disassembled his VW bug enough to get it into his dorm room and reassembled.

Also put a different small car into the dorm lounge by taking apart part of the wall. Come to think of it, I think there was some wall disassembly for the other one, as well.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, MIT kids don't fuck around when it comes to pranks.

Totally figured they got those scenes for Real Genius from SOMEWHERE. (Although Mythbusters totally disproved the popcorn theory. The bastards.)
