For me, that is. Found out the technical term for fear of worms is Scoleciphobia, which makes sense. (Skolopendere = Centipede.) Not that it means I'm afraid of centipedes, but my grandmother is and my father was afraid of snakes.
Honestly, it makes sense, maybe I'm genetically inclines to be afraid of wriggling things. *Shudders*
And as always you get a small quote:
Me: Stumbled upon a picture of a worm on the net here, curled up and... Yuck! I was so grossed out I barely managed to find the keys to close the tab, which incidentally closed everything else...
E: Why didn't you just hit the return-key?
Me: *Feeling stupid* No one said I was a genius! And I was almost in panic.
E: *Patting my back* No, no one said you were a genius.
Just watched Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds. Genius, of course.
My favorite character? Mrs. Bundy, the woman who knew all about birds. I just fell for her accent, way of talking and knowledge. (Yes, I just said about the same thing in three different ways.) And she is played by Ethel Griffies... Weird to think about that she was born in 1878 and died 1975, she lived through both world wars, murder of JFK, moon landing and a whole lot of other things.... Let's see what, using a song ;)

And I know someone that's gonna sing along XD
Back to Ethel: in the span of 97 years she must have experienced a lot of things.
And I was sure The Birds was from 1958, but it's from 1963. Where did I get 58 from?
The trailer, that have a really dry humor you don't get half of before you have seen the movie, funny, right?
I think it's hilarious, but I doubt many else thinks so...
Anyway, he got a point, we human have a tendency to take advantage of the world around us. Melanie's fur coat is really a good example, just as the eggs.
Having a talk with him would be... AWESOME!
Something I found on the net and spend a full minute laughing at:
Well, it isn't!
So I took the liberty of making one for girls.
Oh, the joy of Photoshop.
Ideals are like stars: you will not succeed in touching them with your hands, but like the seafaring man on the ocean desert of waters, you choose them as your guides, and following them, you reach your destiny. --Carl Schurz (1829 - 1906)
Ideals are like stars: you can never reach them and if you do, you are going to get seriously burned.

My amazing math skills: A guy is born in 1986, therefor he is 6 years older than me, I managed that part. But how old is he? I made it out to be 26, thereby 10 years older than me. Skillz, I know.
*Drum Roll* No, nothings up, just listening to music. *tatatatatatatata!*
Found some cool pics online, so I don't own any of them ;) <-- LOOK! cute smiley!!
I simply love those eyes. Original image belongs toDeisi!
I got a kinda thing for skeletons now, starting with giraffes. I think this is the exact same pic that is in a book I used to read at my grandmother's. Kinda creepy to find the same drawing on the net, but what isn't on the net, don't exist! :)
Yummi!
Small kitten! May be a manip, but I don't really care, it's funny and kinda scary anyway.
I'd click the third, just to see what would happen!
A moment of pure genious:
*Click link*
*Look at top of picture*
E: Is it allowed to have that kind of things on the net?
Me: Over half the web is porn...
*scroll down*
Both: it's a pink ice-cream!
*feel immensely stupid!*
(Yeah, our world doesn't revolve around penises, but when something funny happens, they have a way of sneaking in... Okay, that's wrong, but... Screw it!)
And we had a photoshop-class today. I was finished almost before the teacher was done explaining what we had to do, but it was really basic and I understand that not everyone is a geek and plays around in photoshop all day long. I got a lot of time to make a funny pic at least :D .
And I really impressed a guy with my skills earlier, sometime last week. Know what I did? Used the brush-tool! That proved two thing: don't make things more complicated than it is and Photoshop don't know what looks good, people do!
