one thing its been a proven fact, That the 3 second memory of a goldfish is not true. Scientists have trained gold fish to feed themselves. this was done by feeding the fish at the same time everyday, and they tought them to press a button every time to recieve there food. After a while the food was delivered electronicly by the press of the button. and it worked.

and also 4:20 is not only doobie time but its the code for possesion of marijuana for the police.

My fact for this thread: science has proven that an infinite number of monkeys working on an infinite number of typewriters will eventually produce a heinously dull cut-and-paste thread like this.

Aren't sharks the only fish that blink anyway? and I think its more of a protective membrane than an actual eyelid

[BitSeraph]

Just for the record, I don't hold dictionary.com as a reputable source. Try the OED.

[DocHolidazed]

the websters dictionary is reputable, so go ahead you can continue to make up words for the english language
besides for the money they are raking in for thier subscriptions they should beable to create new words for the english language.

[BitSeraph]

Okay, didn't mean to be so vituperative. I might even invent punctuation too, one day.
