    I have nothing to worry about while I’m in bermuda. I mean I’m not exactly triangle-shaped. Didn’t these people ever have toys as kids? Sheesh!

    Don’t forget quicksand… I spent all my childhood afraid of falling into it. Somehow it was an unwarranted concern.

      See I always knew it was fine because I was never in as jungle or swamp, because that’s where it always is in movies and cartoons.

    I remember freaking out when the last season of Friends aired - what, there are people vacationing in Bermuda? Are they insane? I was in my late teens

    It’s even funnier when you remember that like 99% of all matter is empty space, and electrostatic force is what keeps everything from sliding past everything else.

    My childhood fear was getting the vaccine shot for the swine flu which was a big issue in the mid 70’s. My 5th grade class received new text books and there was a photo of a kid getting the vaccine shot. Instead of a needle it was delivered by a big device that looked like an uzi machine gun and I was terrified of it. Time passed and I never got the shot. That’s when I learned how the news works.
