  1. This stuff is: amazing, disgusting, cute, repugnant, weird and really interesting! This site is quite the plethora of “strange things.” Just be careful; you’ll get on here and forget that you were supposed to be doing your lesson plans or your research on some equally interesting stuff like the new health reform!
