"To remedy this, Kellogg believed the answer was a healthy diet, believing that more flavoursome foods encouraged sexual activity. He came up with two breakfast staples that he believed would curb sexual impulses."

it's ironic to point that out


we're supposedly not allowed to make memes of black people anymore

if the rate of shark/vending machine encounters was the same, then fair enough, but that's kinda like saying a spoon is more deadly than the plague.

Bama wrote:Disney's Ariel and Hercules, technically, are first cousins once removed.
there's a lot of things which fit together like this, like roman polanski the guy that's banned from the US for sexual activity with an underage girl, was engaged to Sharon Tate with a baby on the way; and Sharon Tate was the woman killed by charlie manson's followers

another one is like prometheus and pandora, you probably know the story of both, but they are actually the same story, pandora is the punishment for prometheus

i dont think they actually linked Ariel and Hercules together, but pretty much all of them are related through zeus

i dont believe that one, if you go to a decent market they have more than 200 things

4% of 275,000 tho, so 11000? okay there's not that many things there

surely those will be the best 200 things tho? like edible might not mean palatable or good for you?
