Over time, certain physical traits makes one's looks more appealing.

Like coloured eyes,

Okay, maybe not that colour but you get what I mean.

Or dimples,

Gaspard! =D

But what you didn't know is that having blue eyes or dimples are actually 'mutations'.

Having anything other than brown eyes means that there's been a mutation in your genes. Originally, all humans had brown eyes. But some thousand years ago, somebody's genes mutated and caused them to have blue eyes. Which technically means that everyone with blue eyes have a common ancestor.

Dimples on the other hand, is due to a variation in one of our facial muscles. Meaning that people with dimples have a muscle in their face that decided being like everyone else was boring and that changing it's structure would be fun.

Throughout history, only three movies have ever won all five major Academy Awards.

The five major awards are Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Director, Best Picture as well as Best Screenplay(Adapted).

So clearly, the three movies that managed such a feat must be really good no?

Well, I have watched two of them and I must say they deserved the awards.

The Silence of the Lambs.

I just love Anthony Hopkins' portrayal of Hannibal Lecter. Despite the fact that Dr. Lecter is some sociopath who likes to eat people, I must say he is really intelligent. That although he's stuck in a cell, it's like he still knows everything.

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.

Really quite a funny movie. But the ending...

Sigh. You must watch it to get what I'm talking about.

The one movie left for me to watch is It Happened One Night. Strange how two of the three movies are sort of psychology related. And the other is a romantic comedy. Looks like action movies will never be great movies =P.

And only old movies achieved such things. Don't you realise that all the movies were made before 2000? The latest being 'The Silence of the Lambs" in 1991. "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" was released in 1975 and "It Happened One Night" being the oldest was released in 1934. Makes you wonder what on earth happened to the quality of the newer movies.

I'm sure most of you know about punctuation marks.

But here are two of the lesser known, more modern ones.

The interrobang.

Just by looking at it I think you should know what it's used for. Basically for when you wanna ask a question in an excited manner.

The sarcmark.

Short for sarcasm mark. Used to show that the sentence is meant to be sarcastic. Though if you're usually a sarcastic person there'd be no need to use this mark. People would already know that you're being sarcastic.

For all the Harry Potter fans,

*JAMES POTTER SERIES*

No, it's not about James Potter, Harry's father. It's about James Sirius Potter. Harry's son.

No, it isn't written by J.K Rowling.

But YES, it's good.

So far only three books, but a fourth one's in the works.

Call it fanfiction if you will.

Have you ever wondered what it'll be like to be kidnapped??

Well, apparently you can now pay to be kidnapped.

Quite cool no? This company in Detroit has been doing it since 2002.

*EXTREME KIDNAPPING*

Not only that, there is another company, in France though that does more than kidnapping. You can pay to be manhunted or a fugitive on the run. Those are their typical packages. But if you want more, you can spend the night in the morgue, attend your own funeral or get buried alive. Basically anything you want that will give you the adrenaline rush.

*ULTIME REALITE*

Would you try it? Cause I know I would if I have the spare cash.
