(There is a video. click to watch it.)

Two employees wore a life-size rhino costume and tried to escape the compound before being hit with fake tranquilisers and trapped in nets.

omfg, I have never hated anyone as much as I hate Scarlet O’Hara. I’ve never felt this way because of a movie. I will never watch that film again for as long as I live.
OHMYGOODNESS. exactly how I felt too!!! I could never understand why nobody else hated Scarlet so bad. I’ve always thought it was because the last (and only) time I watched it, I was younger. And that maybe i...
sleep is evading me.

This is hilarious. People have WEIRD names for their children these days…
My favorite name that slipped through? “Number 16 Bus Shelter”.
Some poor kid in New Zealand is actually named Number 16 Bus Shelter.
I think I’ll name my firstborn “Number Four Privet Drive” and move to New Zealand so they can be BFF’s.

Love to talk about what is going on in their lives
Will encourage their mates to grow
Need to feel encouragement
Don’t like to say it when their feelings are hurt
Tend to withdraw to process hurt feelings in private
Need to hear how much they mean to someone
Like spontaneous demonstrations of love and respect
Under stress: may have difficulty saying no and take on too many projects
