But the napkin goes under the fork. You're fucking up the conspiracy!
I once saw a short movie in a festival here in my country that was basicaly this, but they made it so that the wife of the creator saw images of him dating another woman and didn't knew it was one of those images created.
Had a good start, but became way too much melodramatic later =P

Not that cool. Not thread worthy.
Mind not blown.
Mind not blown.
Shouldn't that be Sunday -> Moonday?
The brain doesn't fill up anything. The blind spot is alway here, you just don't notice because it's a tiny area and your dont really have just one eye opened, fixed and focusing on just one thing at the "perfect" distance.

Wednesday is Odin's day. and how many people actually pronounce Wednesday properly? isn't it Tyr's day, Odin's day, Thor's day, and Freya's Day?
Thursday - Thur's day. Donnerstag (German) is Thunder's day. All Western European languages insert their respective ancient religion's god of X into day X. French Jeudi relates to Jupiter, the Roman god of, among other things, thunder. This goes on for practically all standard names for all days in Romance and Germanic languages. Not sure about Slavic.
In French
Lundi (Lune = moon)
Mardi (Mars. Tuesday is derived from Tiw, Norse equivalent of Mars)
Mercredi (Mercure = Mercury. Wednesday is derived from Wodanaz = Odin, Norse equivalent of Mercury)
Jeudi (Jupiter. Thursday is derived form Thor, Norse equivalent of Jupiter)
Vendredi (Venus. Friday is derived from Frige, Norse equivalent of Venus)
Samedi (From Sabbati dies = Sabbath. All western europe languages have an equivalent, save for English which refers to Saturn)
Dimanche (from dies Dominica = day of the lord. All latin languages are based on this, germanic languages refer to the sun).

That's cool!
Exactly.
Tisdag. Tyr.
Onsdag. Odin.
Torsdag. Thor.
Fredag. Freya.
Pretty cool, keepin' the norse paganism alive!
The 7 days of the week are named after the 7 "planets" visible to the human eye without a telescope. I guess that's also why we have 7 days in a week instead of 5 or 10 days in a week.
Sun
Moon
Mars
Mercury
Jupiter
Venus
Saturn
And the days of the week in latin
dies Sōlis
dies Lūnae
dies Martis
dies Mercuriī
dies Jovis
dies Veneris
dies Saturnī
The modern romance languages of French, Portuguese, and Spanish follow the same pattern, except names for the weekend days were changed after the rise of Christianity.
In the west we named the planets after the ancient gods... In Japan they named the planets after the elements... but still the 7 days of the week were named after the 7 "planets"
So in Japanese
日曜日 Nichiyōbi = Sun Day
月曜日 Getsuyōbi = Moon Day
火曜日 Kayōbi = Fire Day Mars = 火星 Kasei = Fire Planet/Star
水曜日 Suiyōbi = Water Day Mercury = 水星 Suisei = Water Planet/Star
木曜日 Mokuyōbi = Wood Day Jupiter = 木星 Mokusei = Wood Planet/Star
金曜日 Kin'yōbi = Gold Day Venus = 金星 Kinsei = Gold Planet/Star
土曜日 Doyōbi = Earth/Soil Day Saturn = 土星 Dosei = Earth/Soil Planet/Star
See how in Japanese the days of the week follow the same pattern they do in latin.
Sun
Moon
Mars
Mercury
Jupiter
Venus
Saturn
In English the pattern is not as consistent.
Sunday = Sun Day
Monday = Moon Day
Tuesday =
Wednesday =
Thursday =
Friday =
Saturday = Saturn Day
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday are all based on the names of old German or Norse gods... Now we have no official records of what the old Germans or Norse named the 7 "planets" but I personally think they named the 7 "planets" after the Norse gods... just like the Romans named them after the Roman gods and the Greeks named them after the Greek gods. But we have no evidence to confirm what they named the 7 planets.
Tuesday = Týr or Tiw's Day
Wednesday = Odin or Wodan's Day
Thursday = Thor's Day
Friday = Fríge's Day
^ This one we know what the planet Venus was called in Norse: Friggjarstjarna = Fríge's Star = Venus
Those who didn't saw that prepare to be mindblown.

Cool. I saw the doll on the cruficix on my wall pulsating horizontally.
Think about that, and then think about the fact that if you do not have children, you are the first in over 200,000 years of human lineage to not reproduce and pass on the genes. From a single celled organism 3.6 billion years ago down to your mother and father, everyone has managed to survive long enough to reproduce. It sort of makes the people who say they don't feel like having kids because of the hassle look like assholes.
I said goddamn.
