Robocop 2
In this movie, there is a tickling scene on the bed with his wife. Does anyine happen to know particularily if that actress (angie bolling), really is ticklish?Jk31213 03:07, 16 October 2007 (UTC)


 * I just have to say that's the strangest question I've ever seen asked here.--SeizureDog 04:54, 16 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Since it's unlikely that anyone with personal experience of Angie Bolling's ticklishness is likely to turn up at the reference desk, it would suggest that rather than the world being divided into ticklish and non-ticklish people, someone's ticklability depends largely on their mood and their relationship with the tickler. If you are asking whether Angie Bolling was really being tickled or just faking it, I think you will have to decide for yourself, but since we don't have an article about her, I suspect she is not famed for her acting skills.--Shantavira|feed me 08:37, 16 October 2007 (UTC)


 * I've seen plenty of actors lack an article about them around here. She could easily be a good actor... Apart from that, I wouldn't know. It's not something that's commonly shared about celebrities, so there's no way to find out. - Mgm|(talk) 08:55, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

She's more lesbian than ticklish

Name that book
I remember reading this book in school, but I can't remember the name. It's a famous book about a Jewish family that went through the Holocaust.

I need to find this book again for research. Can anyone tell me what the name of it is? Dengarde ► Complaints 04:42, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Check Category:Holocaust personal accounts--SeizureDog 04:52, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Hmm... I didn't seem to find it in there (Or theres something I overlooked). I do remember two things about it though. It's non-fictional, and in one scene, the Nazi's are raiding the families house, and the family had to claim that a friend of theirs was their dead daughter in order to save her. (I remember that they did it by showing the soldiers a picture of their daughter, who originally had black hair but eventually turned blond, and they had to rip the date off or the picture because the age didn't fit...Or something like that.) Any help would be appreciated. Dengarde ► Complaints 05:06, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
 * I found it, it's the book known as Number the Stars. Thanks though :) Dengarde ► Complaints  06:33, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

Music Video with robots and aliens
Whats the music video where the band is in black and white and they are in a flying saucer taking pictures of a giant robot and then when the video is over the robot eats the ship? --Gary123 14:52, 16 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Sounds to me a lot like Talk (song) by Coldplay 84.68.125.254 22:46, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

super mario sunshine
hey guys, wat happens when you get all the stars?

and what old man were they talking about in the game when they found out that the fake mario was little bowser?--Dlo2012 20:43, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

I assume he meant old man as in father (see Bowser). When you get every shine sprite, you get a nice new desk. Froglars the frog 21:01, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

Well they said it was an old man in a white coat so i don't think it was bowser

Really odd X-men collection
I picked up a collection of comics a few years ago associated with the X-Men that I quite enjoyed, though I could easily see why lots of people wouldn't. Now I can't remember the name, or enough details to google it with any accuracy, and I didn't recognize it by scanning the lists here at Wikipedia. It was not directly connected with the X-Men I knew, and showed a team of heroes with lame powers, backbiting and betraying one another, generally incompetent, and, as I recall it, with a startling mortality rate. My details may not be 100% accurate. Does anyone know what I might be remembering? I think I need it for Christmas. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 21:55, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
 * The only one I can think of (heroes with lame powers) is Flaming Carrot Comics, on which the film Mystery Men was loosely based. --Canley 07:09, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Theres also The Legion of Substitute Heroes, Captain Carrot and His Amazing Zoo Crew!, and Inferior Five. Those are DC comics though.--SeizureDog 07:59, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Thank you so much for your (incorrect) answers! Someone outside this forum was able to point me toward it- the comic I remembered was X-Statix.  The superpowers aren't quite as lame as I remembered them, so sorry for the red herring, and thanks for the help. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 13:03, 17 October 2007 (UTC)


 * I once saw a comic where the hero had "magnetic eyes", which allowed him to cause all the metal objects in the room to fly towards his eyes at high speed. --Sean 15:18, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Please don't try this at home children! Metal objects flying towards your eyes could hurt! DuncanHill 11:45, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
