This is the one song that I never, ever skip on my mp3 player...

I won't say the answer because I had to look it up-but I will say that this riddle is evil. Absolutely evil. I don't think it makes sense, but I *would* think that since I couldn't solve it...

At the risk of sounding eco, Poison Ivy. Because biochemistry friggin' rules. Just put Thurman!Ivy out of your minds...

I'd like to be buried as in an anonymous grave in the middle of the night in the middle of nowhere. Because I'm that dangerous.

West Gate looks to be the best out of the ones in the list-I dunno why, but the term "gate" has a touch of supernatural meaning to it-and an even subtler literary aspect. Gates are always present in the idyllic countryside cottage where an adventure begins or in the mist-cloaked hedge leading...

"Ceiling Cat is watching you!" "ThunderCats - HOOOOOOOOOOOO!" "Mawwage!" "Your friend here is only MOSTLY dead." "Zombie apocalypse is the opiate of the masses."

If a large-scale invasion is what you're taking about... Invading the West Coast would be a fool's errand. You'd only get a thin strip of land before running into the Cascades and the Sierra Nevada, and you only have to look at Switzerland's plan to resist the Nazis to see how easy that would...

Except in places like China where it's "wrong" to criticize the government and "wrong" to have basic freedoms. It's fine to tolerate intrusions of privacy when the government is only looking for murderers and rapists; but the watchers have to be watched carefully to make sure that's all they're...

I'm a huge crybaby. I've been tearing up this entire thread. But I go and seek out sad images, stories, and videos sometimes because it feels good to cry. Théoden's death in RotK really gets me going...as does the last scene in Wall-E when his memory is lost, when Guido is shot in Life is...

That was a poorly constructed sentence. I was trying to say that the culture, customs, and ideologies of the United States enjoy privileged status (similar to its current military and economic superiority) in media communications and popular culture worldwide-I wasn't trying to say that they're...

Since the end of World War II, it's been apparent that the world hates the United States of America because the US is imperialistic and overbearing, because it annihilates local culture and customs with unethical military and economic practices, and because it's drunk on self-righteousness and...

We're a much cleaner society-we're aware of germs for example, so a lot of people don't want to be exposed to dirty things for fear of their health, we're an urban society that's far removed from the natural world, so dirty things are strange to us, and we're a sedentary society-this is a...

I'd accelerate the development of space travel, because improving the conditions of the Third World AND protecting the environment would be impossible with the current world population. I'd offload the extra humans onto the Moon, Mars, and Venus as soon as it was feasible. Need a job? How does...

"Man culture"? "Guy culture"? So what would the video games industry be like if it was mired in "woman culture" or "gal culture"? Soap operas and dating sims? Is that any better?

Also a meteorite could kill you and your city at any moment, a madman could be hiding under your bed, a rabid bat could have passed the virus to you via a wound the size of a paper cut, and there's no guarantee that the world is real and exists outside your own mind. Have a nice day!
