These folks were in for a shock when they realized not everyone had constant discomfort, unexplained pain, the inability to sleep and uncontrollable sneezing.

You need everyone to know just how thoughtful and knowledgeable you are. Don't worry, we've got your back. The next time you're with a group of people, you can sling some of these facts their way and feel smart.
Thomas Romain is an animation artist who lives in Tokyo. He takes his sons drawings as inspiration and translates them into his own art style. Prepare to be jealous that your dad never adapted your own inventive childhood doodles into professional-level artwork.
SO far south of the wrong answer I don't even know what to do with myself right now. Was their intention all along to get a momentary spike in viewer ratings by portraying the perils of entering a game show with one's brain set to mouth-breathing, listless gaze 'off' mode, or what? If so, mission accomplished guys.
I think it's fair to say the last thing this kid expected was to come face to face with a very legit Bart Simpson IRL! Obviously older generations will know Nancy Cartwright voiced the iconic Bart Simpson, but clearly there's an unfortunate carryover of that knowledge with the kids nowadays. Can't beat that expression of sheer and unadulterated shock.
Mayhaps 2017's not going to be the shit-coated disasterpiece many of us unfortunately, collectively assumed it'd be. But if it is, let the cretins of this fair galaxy like Martin Shkreli quite literally eat shit.

Because this kind of feat will never cease to impress, and if Magikarp can make it through the Elite Four, we can all make it through that soul-draining grind that is a Monday.

Ever wonder how your Grandpa would compare with an Olympian at their own sport?
Well, some scientists did, and they set up an experiment with seniors doing the same activities as Olympians and then measured the difference between the Olympian's record and the centenarian's. Specifically, Usain Bolt, who ran the 100-metre in 9.58 seconds...
...with, say, Donald Pellman, a competitor in the 100 to 104 age-group, who did the same event in 26.99 seconds, which was only a 64.5 percent decrease in performance compared with Bolt.
The centenarian athlete who showed the lowest percent decrease in performance between an Olympian and himself was Robert Marchand, a Frenchman, who holds the world record for his age group in 1-hour track cycling. He cycled only 50.6 percent slower than Bradly Wiggin's record.
After 40, our performance decreases by about 10 to 15 percent per decade usually, so you'd better start running now if you want to catch these Grandpas.
