Surprise quiz
There I was coming home from the supermarket when some guy suddenly turns to me and asks:
him: "You're your brother's brother, aren't you?"
me: (carefully) "Uhm... Yes."

Let's talk

May I rest in peace
One of these days, I'm going to fake my own death. Maybe that will be enough to get my family to leave me alone.

The Mubbly Alphabet
Endlessly searching for something to satisfy my Mario Galaxy cravings, I stumbled on Frozzd, a rather simple and fun indie game wherein a lost astronaut leads warm and fuzzy aliens against the threat of the Frozzd empire.

Shady business
In Up, there's a retirement home called "Shady Oaks." In Spongebob Squarepants, there's a retirement home called "Shady Shoals." It's a rather pervasive trend.
Why is it that every time a movie/TV show mentions a retirement home it's called "Shady ___"?
