Blue and green on pink Jun 25, 2009
The blue and green seen in this picture are actually the same color.

Discover Magazine says, "our brain judges the color of an object by comparing it to surrounding colors."  If you zoom in and cut out all the other colors in the picture, it's true, they're the same.  This scares me, because I thought my brain was smarter than that.  It turns out it can be easily tricked.  (via Neatorama) #science
Walt Disney was cremated Jun 25, 2009
For as long as I can remember, I've believed that Walt Disney was cryogenically frozen when he died, in the hopes that some wonderful scientist of the future could microwave him back to life so he could build a few more theme parks and make a sequel to the Little Mermaid.  It turns out my entire life is based on a lie.  Snopes and Straight Dope agree that Disney was cremated and buried in Forest Lawn Memorial-Parks in Glendale, CA.  (via Twitter/mental_floss) #entertainment
Disgusting eater Jun 25, 2009
I spent some time with a guy last week who was a horrifically disgusting eater.  He's one of those people who will talk right after taking a bite of something, and it always sounds like he's eating peanut butter.  Every liquid he drinks is loudly slurped, and every slurp is following by a ridiculous, drawn-out sigh.  It was so painful to spend time with this guy while he was eating, I had to wonder how he was able to form any type of meaningful relationships in life.  Magically, he did.  He's married with a few kids.  I considered driving my car off a cliff after our first (of several) meal together. #psychology
Sleepwalking urinater stabbed Jun 25, 2009
I almost spit out my coffee when I read this headline:  KC man urinating while sleepwalking stabbed.  It just doesn't get much better than that.  What we have here is the tri-fecta, or perhaps the penta-fecta, of good news stories: 
  1. A drunk man
  2. Was sleepwalking
  3. And urinating
  4. In a closet
  5. Then was stabbed
Today is a good day for news. #entertainment
