I love this Headline...

When I saw this just now, I had to post it because it reminded me of a funny story from my youth. I remember it vividly even though I was only 4 or 5. I was walking down the hallway from my morning daycare (the same daycare that showed us The Hitcher) to Junior or Senior Kindergarden which was in the same building. There was a group of us that would walk down, all kids. I remember some kid talking about death and although I was aware of death, I hadn't really experienced it (and still haven't....fuck I'm in for a world of hurt...). Anyway, this kid was just talking about how everyone dies and one day we will too. This didn't really bother me. Then, this other kid starts talking about how in a couple of years, our teeth will start falling out and we'll get adult teeth. Well this freaked me THE FUCK OUT. I thought all my teeth were going to fall out at one time and that new ones would come in, but I'd be toothless. I was stressed for days. Then I found out that it was only one by one, and I felt a lot better. So teeth falling out = horrible, stressful information. Fact that we and everyone we know will eventually die = not so much.
Effing kids. So dumb.
