fun factoid

wasps lay their teeny babies eggs inside catipillars. you would thinkg the catipillars immune syestem would fight it off but no. the wasp also injects a disease related to AIDS that baseically shuts down the immune system. once the babies hatch they eat the catipillar from the inside out.  humans need not worry because the catipillars immune system is very very weak.

haha this happened to me last friday, but instead of showing solidarity with our underage pals, me and the other two guys with ID were just like "oh sucks for you guys, i heard this movie was fucking sweet. see ya"

then we met up with them two hours later and they were angry because we just kept quoting the movie without cease.

i guess we're kinda douchebags, but that movie was funny enough to be worth it

fun factoid,

the worlds temperature actually dropped following the days of 9-11 because of the decease in airline travel. (airplanes create artificial clouds which acts as insolation to radiant waves coming off of the earths surface thus causing a higher average temperature) Google it if you don't believe me
