Surprise Me

Surprise me. That's all I want. Give me something I've never seen before. Give me something that'll knock me off my feet. Make me cry. Make me laugh hysterically. Make me stop and actually think. Do any of these things.

RULES:
1. Type properly. NoNe oF tHiS. And none of this: "heyy wutz up??" And God help you if I see any leet speak.
2.Don't be offended if I'm brutal or critical with you. This is why critical thinking exists.




That is all.
