pardon me, while i go straight to hell

part of me felt really bad. mostly though, i just laughed. a LOT more than i should have.

i give you, my viewing pattern for thursday night, the 15th of december, 2005:

9 pm (cst) - "the boy whose skin fell off"

10 pm (cst) - "born with two heads"

11 pm (cst) - "archie: the 84-lb baby"

call me twisted, but i freaking love TLC.

What's pathetic is that i watched all of it with you.

'We never noticed the extra head in our ultrasounds. You have to understand we were too busy looking for other things.' -- i still don't know what those other things could be... I mean, IT'S A SECOND HEAD! Shouldn't it stand right out?!

Well, the head foamed at the mouth a lot... but according to the nurse she was unique in personality from her sister, albeit lacking appendages or torso. At one point they were feeding it a bottle which was disturbing cuz where would the milk go anyway??

yeah, i guess despite being labelled as a "parasite" and possessing nothing of it's own other than a brain and a face, the second head was said to have it's own personality.

right up to the point where they cut it off.

wow.

actually, "archie" doesn't happen often at all. in fact there are only 3 known cases of his condition.

i get what you're saying though.

Oh and the "Boy" who skins falls off was almost 40 years old... I think you bypass "boy" long before then.

Oh, I watched all of those too. I've also seen "The World's Strongest Boy" and "Half a Woman" and then there is also one about a woman who has no arms and really short legs-almost like her feet are just attached to the bottom of her torso, and she had a perfectly healthy baby which she raised on her own. I've also seen the ones of people with progeria-premature aging-like 7 year olds that look like they are 90.

Weird how a lot of the people are British.
