I wonder what those horrifying nightmares I get every night say about my I.Q.

Tobi

What about the fact that from your thumb to your index finger is the size of your penis?

Neko Xab
09-07-2008, 09:52 PM
So then big hands = big thingy?

If I had one, I'd be able to test that out.

I know I dream alot, usually every night (that I can remember my dreams from at least). My dreams are pretty vivid, and usually in black and white.

I also know my IQ was said to be 125 last time I had tested for it, but this was a while back.

I found the pupil dilating when looking at someone you love or hate interesting.

^ Omg, it'll cut your esophagus on the way down though.

But if its really that strong, how come it doesn't burn our mouths out when we vomit?

mine definitely last longer than a few seconds. And I have never had a black and white dream. I wonder what that would be like.

It does, actually. That's one reason you should drink fluids and brush your teeth after you get sick. The acid is bad for your tooth enamel.

mine definitely last longer than a few seconds. And I have never had a black and white dream. I wonder what that would be like.Like a having a dream as a dog? :cm:

And yeah, she got me with the nose thing, too.
