Just stay where you are,
Let your fears subside.
Just stay where you are
If you’ve got nothing to hide.

THE LYRICS

When I’m falling down
Will you pick me up again?
When I’m too far gone
Dead in the eyes of my friends

Will you take me out of here?
When I’m staring down the barrel
When I’m blinded by the lights
When I can not see your face
Take me out of here [x4]

All I believe and all I’ve known
Are being taken from me I’ve gotta get home
Led to a world, when worlds collide
Let their fear collapse, bring no surprise

Take me out of here

Feed the fire
Break your vision
Throw your fists up
Come on with me
[4x]

Just stay where you are
Let your fear subside
Just stay where you are
If there’s nothing to hide

Feed the fire
Break your vision

Throw your fists up
Come on with me
[6x]

I’m such a Foundation (Asimov) nerd that I had to post this when I found out that a town in Turkey was actually named “with/of Foundation” i.e. Foundational = Vakıflı. Here is a clip of the wikipedia entry on it. Apparently the only remaining Armenian village in Turkey.

These are meant to be burned at funerals in China.
The concept of Hell was interpreted as a general ‘afterlife’, not as the Christian missionaries attempted to convey it in the negative, eternal-hell-fire sense that we understand in the west. Hence the use of ‘Hell Notes’ to ferry departed souls into ‘Heaven’.

I love that xkcd made this comic:

But I love even more that xkcd is so cool that someone was inspired to actually make the real game! Yes, please try it — it’s insanely, the exact same thing — but in real life! CLICK HERE.
