Found a couple of goofy pages I stumbled upon on Uncyclopedia that I thought I might share with you. Here’s one and here’s another.

Tip: if you’re going to be out researching for something, don’t ever use Uncyclopedia, unless you’re aiming for an F.:P

Laughed so hard when I saw this. This is for all the people who thought that "Snakes on a Plane" was one of the dumbest films ever made.

For those who follow the Resident Evil series (I’m getting into it right now, belated, I know), there’s this trailer that was shown on Tokyo Game Show (I’m thinking by "Game" it means "Video Games", not the kind of game show we’re used to :P).

Oh man, please tell me that’s a fake tombstone. I love Jill Valentine’s character, and if they kill her off, I don’t think I’d want to follow it anymore. I’m a Chris/Jill shipper too, so it would be even more horrible if they killed her off on Chris’s game.

It’s cool seeing Chris again, definitely, and Sheva looks like she’s a good fighter too, but I’d prefer Jill. There’s nothing like seeing the originals in action. Graphics look pretty good in RE5, btw. Is it just me or is Chris hotter than Leon?XD

Or it might just be the biceps talking, but you know…XD

Even without that romance angle though (and it’s just implied, there’s nothing ever officially said by Capcom about these two), Jill is probably RE’s iconic character (more so than Nemesis), so if they did kill her off, I’m thinking they’re going to anger a lot of their fanbase. I’m crossing my fingers that that’s just a dummy tombstone, and Jill’s just hiding somewhere (and no, not infected, and definitely not as a BOW. She got infected in RE3, but she looked fine in Umbrella Chronicles, so it can’t be the virus).

I just read online that there’s a movement to get rid of some words from the dictionary. Similarly, there’s a petition going on to save your favorite word from the list, so that it won’t be removed - by making use of these words themselves!

Here’s the list:

Caducity Perishableness; senility

Caliginosity Dimness; darkness

Exuviate To shed (a skin or similar outer covering)

Malison A curse

Mansuetude Gentleness or mildness

Muliebrity The condition of being a woman

Niddering Cowardly

Nitid Bright; glistening

Olid Foul-smelling

Oppugnant Combative, antagonistic or contrary
