Same general rules apply. Topics should be focused on science of some kind, neuroscience, pseudo-science, weasel science, it all goes. If you'd like to shift a thread from general to here, let me know.

It's not lying, it's "theorising".
Though Hljothlegur is wrong, true… the magnets don't even need to like each other.

Yeah, I was making it up, tis true. I was warned by an outside body that the Fucking Magnets comment was the name of an Insane Clown Posse song, and indication to run screaming from here.

The name of the tune is called "Miracles," and it is truly awesome. You should totally check it out.
Among other things listed as fucking miracles:
- Giraffes
- Dogs and cats
- Rainbows
- The fact that Shaggy's kids look just like Shaggy (Don't know what that says about Shaggy's life partner, but whatevs)
And then there's this:

This is for real isn't it? O.o
I thought for a minute it was some kind of tongue-in-cheek Ali G type send up of rap, but this is an actual band. Interesting. Why do they talk like they're african american? I understand it's the style for rapping, but in the interview they talked like that? They both look caucasian under the makeup.

Hell yeah, it's for real. JUGGALOS REPRESENT!
If you look around, you'll find that what is usually accepted as "African American" speech is informed by class and regional background more than anything else, and crosses racial barriers quite easily. It's just that nobody notices all the black people walking around talking "like white people," (just about every Black actor in Hollywood when not in character, our current President, most middle- and upper-class Black people), because talking "like white people" is accepted as normal and is therefore invisible. It's just confirmation bias, messing with you again.
P.S. I am not a Juggalo.
