Talk to the Animals
From Petside.com:
A new poll released by the Associated Press and Petside.com reveals that the majority of pet owners in the U.S. believe they can comprehend their pet's own language, and that their pet understands what they say as well. Read on to find out more!
I don't claim to know just exactly what the Beej says with every "meow", but I can tell when he's angry or impatient with me and it doesn't take Dr. Doolittle to figure out what he means when he's at the door meowing. (inside OR out)
I'm So Hyper
I'm almost dead.
You Are 20% Hyper |
 You are low on the energy scale. You prefer peace and quiet to excitement and adventure. You don't see the point of always being on the go. You have a low stress threshold, and you can only do one thing at a time. And like many people, you tend to tire quickly. You need a lot of down time. Not only are you not hyper, hyper people tend to annoy you a bit. You find energetic people to be overwhelming. You wish they would just calm down! |
There's No "P" in Tom Hanks
From Mental Floss:
Micturition plays a role in nearly every film Tom Hanks has ever made. He either pees, talks about peeing, or makes some reference to peeing. Match the numbered scenes on the left with the blanks next to the films on the right. And who knows? And hey, if you're a whiz at this matchup, then you're in luck - you can be number one and make a big splash!
I took the test and it's obvious I know my Tom Hanks movies...or pee, either one.

A Decade of Internet Superstars
From PC World:
A Decade of Internet Superstars: Where Are They Now?
Whatever happened to the Evolution of Dance guy or that kid who loved Britney Spears so much he cried for her under his sheet? We'll fill you in on what happened to them and other Web celebrities when their 15 minutes of fame ended.
I'm so happy they included the Numa Numa kid. How could they leave him out?
They could've left Chris Crocker out, though. That "guy" creeps me out.

Whatever...The world's longest alphabetical email address.
(from the website)
It's so long that...
- Some web forms are unable to read your email address
- Some email software cannot be configured
- People have a hard time typing in your email address
- Companies think that your email address is fake
- The Longest Alphabetical Email Address on Earth!
and...
It's Free!
I signed up for this several years ago and other than a novelty, I really don't understand what good it would be to use.
Still...a site that uses ellipses can't be all bad, plus...
It's Free!
