LOL!

For A_R as the next nextr person:
I don't hate it when I start crying in front of other people because I simply will not cry in front of most people - I am a cry-by-yourself person, though I can cry in front of some people without being distressed over it.

For jp's question:
No wormhole. This would make it seem an impossible question as it could risk never being answered because it's the wrong thread, and therefore maybe killing the thread if we all weren't so silly and lacking our tendencies to hijackthreads. ;)

Why are catnaps considered short when cats are known for sleeping most of the day?
