lol @ that, if you follow some of the links there within, you will eventually come to a report of some girls who put "Mario Question Blocks" around their town, and then were arrested and ~going~ to be charged with terroism.
i love america, and being american. but i do agree there are alot of fugging mor0ns here.

A friend of mine lives down the street from the blue portal... but now it's missing! He went to show another one of my friends but when they got there they were greeted with nothing more than a boring, portalless wall.

Someone has either moved or stolen the blue portal and it's cube! The shock! The horror!
