Can Reddit give me nightmares? | So here's the thing - I haven't been genuinely scared in years. Not for lack of trying, (I've read creepypasta, I have a bad diet, I've visited the "spooky sites") but I can't honestly remember a time where I've woken up from a bad dream.
Keep in mind, here, I'm talking about an atmosphere of fear, rather than a body... |

Have you ever pondered if Obama's whole being a Christian thing is a big political charade? | I mean most highly educated academics tend to be either agnostic or atheists, and he is one of them.

I've always thought that the whole Christ... |
Grammy's: Please remember that no one in the entire world has 3d glasses at home | The entire Michael Jackson tribute performance was unwatchable because of this ridiculousness.
