666 isnt even the number of the beast, it was a mistranslation. its 616, which russian bus route 666 changed to.
OT: underage sex. why do governments make a big deal about kids under 16 or 18 or whatever fucking? why do you think they hit puberty at that age? for more elaboration/insanity:
its because a person that age is not in a posistion to be raising there own child. A 16 year old does not own a house nor have a full time job and simply is not in a position to start a family

I was cleaning out a storage space with some people, one person found a Ouija board, and when he opened it he cut his finger on it o_O

Generally the government only seems to give a crap about older individuals with under 16-18 year olds.
But to answer your question, they hit puberty at that age because their bodies are becoming capable of reproducing. Which funnily enough is also the reason why under 16-18 year olds shouldn't be having sex.
I personally don't want to see a generation full of children being raised by hormonal teenagers, lacking the maturity to raise children, and the real world experience to be independant and support themselves let alone a child.

If your video explained some kind of joke that I've missed, I'm sorry but I didn't watch it. But as it stands on its own, your comment portrays an extremely worrying opinion which I'm glad most people don't share.
the video basically says your first sentence, and how society moved forward faster than evolution moved our reproductive systems forward. its society's fault that they dont have the independence and maturity, because they now say 'you have to stay with your parents and cant get a full-time job and you cant experience x,y and z.' back in the middle ages, they would work in fields and be treated as adults because they were middle aged (people were living to 30 if lucky).

You aren't supposed to cross for crosswalks in Japan they say if you do you'll get taken away by a demon. Wasn't there also an American superstition that if you buried a box at a crosswalk you would summon a demon?

OT: Planes never have rows numbered "13".
I'm sorry, but that isn't true. I recently was on a vacation in Greece, and both on the flight to Greece and back to Norway there was a row numbered 13. (I even sat on row 13, seat F one way).

Oh, well in that case, the planes I have been on didn't have rows numbered 13. I have only been on a plane 4 times, but each time there was no 13th row. I sat quite close to where it would have been on 2 of those flights and I saw where it skipped straight from 12 to 14.

Nudity is one of the biggest taboo in our society and frankly it's bullshit that in this day and age we still frown upon and even imprison people for public nudity.

If you want a whole whack of taboos try looking at naval history:
- don't shake the new guy's hand until the voyage has proved fruitful
- no red-heads on board

Anyone else heard that possibly-a-fact that Japanese hospitals don't have a floor nine because in Japanese "nine" sounds a lot like "death"?

Anyone able to confirm either way on that one?
I don't know if it's true, but at least that one makes sense.
While removing floor 13 from buildings is just silly, I can understand that they'd want to remove floor 9 from hospitals (and perhaps old people's home).
It doesn't have anything to do with superstition, it's just a bit macabre, you know.

OT: Eeeeeeeeeeh...
Well, I guess it sucks pretty bad that you can't just say "Hey, I'd like to bang you, what do you say?" to people. Instead there needs to be this whole mating ritual and shit.

You can't say that men are different from women, even when there are clear differences between the two. This impedes the progress of research.

Also, incest. As long as it's not done for procreation, and is consensual, there's nothing wrong with it.

The Langoliers!

OT: In American television smoking has become a taboo (you'll NEVER see a character light up anymore). Ironically, this doesn't hold the same for movies.

There is a house over in riverside, Ohio and the number is 666. I'm not kidding, even me and my friends call it the house of the beast.

once genetic engineering becomes more common there won't be anything wrong with incest other than public view. Also the age of consent in Japan is 13.
