This is clearly the work of an ignorant meme-maker. Anyone who's actually lived the nightmare knows that the parts of the foot shown in red are "work-hardened" by walking and such. It is in fact those parts of the foot not shown in red that are the most sensitive and therefore most vulnerable to attack by stealthy Legos.

From what I know about Teddy Roosevelt, that was probably the only way you are going to get a word in with that guy. I suspect Robin Williams portrayal of him was actually pretty accurate. Very interesting fellow. VERY driven guy!

I read somewhere that the man drank 30 cups of coffee a day. Truly a man unlike any other. It's funny because I thought he just seemed crazy by today's standards, but the book I read had contemporary accounts of him, and even back then he was viewed as an absolute madlad who both amused and terrified everyone he met

Pretty much means that boomers are quite cognizant in the B52s (my mom had B52s records and she is a boomer) and Shaquille O'Neal.
Don't recognize the middle but I get it in context.
- technically a millennial by the definition I saw (grew up with computers/being online as a normal part of life)
Sorry, yeah, I thought you were responding to his second post.
And yes, I really hate all those "generation" generalizations, which are used a lot as a substitution for what is clearly age prejudice.
Putting people in groups is only encouraging those groups to fight.
(not a boomer BTW)
Brings new meaning to the term "you will service... us."

Am assuming the middle is Baby, since you didn't put her in the corner....
How many people here knew that Courtney Love was the singer in Faith No More in 1983?
