    Hey remember when there were creepy websites counting down to when they "turned legal" at 18?

    As for the WTF, I believe Mary-Kate has issues with anorexia and Ashley has lyme disease.
    Their younger sister Elizabeth seems to have turned out a well balanced young woman with a successful acting career. The difference is she wasn't pushed into the limelight as a baby like they were. I didn't even know they had a younger sister until she turned up in The Avengers.

    Text : I recently had someone ask me to go get a computer and turn it on so I could restart it. He refused to move further in the script until I said I had done that.

    I was cooking and the recipe called for 30 raisins.
    Girlfriend suggested I swap them for 20 sultanas.

    I said No, coz I didn't like the currant exchage rate!

    I believe 100% this happened. Because obviously any sane person would hear a gunshot and go outside and walk up to the person with the gun for a chat.

    Yes I'm fun at parties :P

    So you're telling me you don't believe a screenshot of an anonymous Facebook comment discussing a screenshot of a tweet? Man, you must have trust issues.

    Mad stuff but also pretty amazing.
    https://i.imgur.com/bMvCwX4.gif

    Algerian Feuzi Zabaat, 17, was called a hero for catching a two-year-old mid-air.

    Syrian toddler Doha Muhammed stumbled out of an open second floor window while her mother was cooking.

    Luckily, Mr Zabaat saw her from the street and was able to catch her without any injuries.

    The incident took place in Istanbul, Turkey.

    (not sure what the orange and white things are books maybe)


    The worrying thing here in litigious Ireland, is that no-one would step forward to try to catch the kid. Imagine the lawsuit if you let the kid's head hit the footpath. Or if an arm got broken. It would be all your fault, not the careless mother that actually allowed it to happen. :(

    Ah now, anyone in their right mind would try to catch her. I don't give people much credit, but I do give them a little more credit than that! It'd be like suing the fire services for not being able to get everyone out of a fire unscathed.

    Well, the answer to that one is easy. I felt exactly how you would feel if you were getting ready to launch and knew you were sitting on top of two million parts -- all built by the lowest bidder on a government contract.”

    Well, everyone should know that there is a 'Good Samaritan' law since 2011 that protects people going to the aid of someone in danger.

    http://www.cearta.ie/2011/08/new-irish-law-on-the-liability-of-good-samaritans-a-clatter-of-the-law/

    If you didn't do something, and you had the capacity to do so, then I'd say you could be liable for not acting. So no harm in making an effort within your own capabilities, as long as you don't kick the person in the head out of context of what was needed!!

    This is precisely why burgers are sold as 1/4 pounders instead of1/3 pounders, the dumb pubic thought the quarter is bigger than the third because a four is bigger* than a three.


    * four being more than three, stupid, I know, but try explaining it to someone who doesn't get it! :rolleyes:
