Me too! Especially when they try to rationalize it with science.

The paranormal fascinates a lot of people but they are ill-advised to openly discuss these subjects. Well, that's what Henry VIII and a survivor of the Roswell Incident told me last night when we were playing tag-team telekinesis at Stonehenge. Phew!, those megaliths certainly take it out of you.

Was Henry cheating? I bet he was cheating. F**king cheater.

No, he couldn't cheat. We hog-tied him as a precaution.

LOL 
My mother once started discussing the phobia of spending night alone in your own apartment (my dad has been going on business trips a lot... he works for a local football team), and my wife and my sister pitched in with stories of their own, about their friends, relatives who had the same phobia...
...until I said that I have it as well. Whenever my wife leaves town, I'm so afraid to be alone in our apartment, I spend the night with that young lovely female neighbour of ours.
Fortunately, my wife is used to that kind of humour.
She only hit me once.

Doesn't Firefox save the contents of the form though? I've re-opened tabs after accidental closures in it, and found what I'd typed still there.

My family tree is rather intriguing and complex. I'm even part - *gasp* - Northern. (Well, it's where my paternal grandparents were born anyway.)

And I feel exactly the same about religion.

I'd love to go back and find out Aaron is actually French.

Cool man if you have time do share.

Just like those pastures who preach about hating gays and then end up being gay.
Although I guess I'm English, I love that my name is Scottish and I have a tarten associated with it. I do have an 8th Irish in me... but that's only sometimes. 
That's cool. I was always jealous as a kid when my Scottish friends would show me their Tartens and heraldry.

I was born in England, as were my parents, therefore I am English, no matter of my ancestry.
Oh, and it's tartan! 
I thought I was all Ukrainian (all four grandparents) but it turns out there's a lot of Polish further back, and some Latin names and a heavy hint of Scandinavian, as a 6' 1", blonde-haired, blue-eyed great-grandmother seems suspiciously non-Eastern bloc to be honest.
Looks like my family are some of the great European nomads...
