Hrm... I'd like to know the origin of why the name for "Germany" sounds so different in so many languages. Deutschland - Tyskland - Allemagne - Germany, etc.

Anyone ever get acupuncture?

I slept on the couch at my friend's house late last night and this morning, I had a severe neck strain. It hurt like a bitch.

I thought I was gonna go to the doctor's to get some muscle relaxants but instead my dad takes me to an acupuncturists. I fucking died when I went in and saw the contract I had to sign.


I just stood there looking at my dad. All he did was smile. And the doc told me to hurry up and sign the paper.

Well it wasn't bad at all. He stuck 5 needles in me. 2 in my neck and 3 in my upperback. I don't care if it doesn't hurt, just the thought of needles penetrating my skin causes me to go psycho.

Never, ever doing that shit again. I swear the muscle relaxant pills would have done the trick.

Dunno, but it freaks the shit out of me. I have one by the way and I do not plan on playing that game in my house. Maybe at someone else's house but not in mine.

---

Nope. It's rathr impossible to feel pain without a central nervous system.

---

It's possible, but not likely. The cube would probably disintegrate in mid-air.

Did humans have tails?

---

Ancestors of humans did, but any Homo Sapien having a tail is the result of a genetic mutation.

---

Yes, but don't expect it to last for long.

Maybe I'm psycho, but I like the pain :D I never really minded, even when I was a kid. When I went to boot camp, I got poked with so many needles ( and in the same spot over and over one right after the other ) that I don't even care!

"More needles!!" *to the doctor*

"You're a pussy!! That's you got?!"
