Thank you for not discussing the outside world
There's a hurricane headed for Okinawa(yes that Okinawa) and it's named 'Longwang'. Funny stuff but the real genius of it is how the person who named it got away with it.
Another fun fact I learnt today was that 97% of 100$ dollar bills have traces of cocaine on them. I knew I liked that particular denomination for a reason.
I also just learnt that my absolute favourite episode of the Simpsons has been banned. It's the one where Homer is selected by NASA to go into orbit. It's awesomely funny and just brilliant. I'm not certain when they banned it or even why. I'm thinking it's because of the shuttle accident that happened some time ago. I'm not at all worried though because no one stopped them from airing it when it first appeared even though the Challenger disaster was already in the books. Even the episode where Homer runs around the World Trade Center looking for the bathroom eventually came back on the air. It's a respect thing I think and it's just a matter of time before we see Homer in space again.
I finally see the appeal of dumb girls. I know the reasons are obvious but I just never really gave it much thought. Of course there are cons as well that we won't get into(or the pros for that matter).
On a related topic, a friend of mine said that he's realized something very disturbing: He has become totally invisible to teenage girls. Then I began wondering if I was also invisible to that demographic and at first it wasn't looking good for me. However, it turns out my fears were unwarranted. Quite unwarranted...
