I'm sure you are. It's called SURGERY....I'm sure you'll be getting it in Australia sometime this century....

Ok, this one's real just so Caroline won't get mad at me:

The only personal experience of non-traumatic limb loss was when my dad cut off half his pinky finger with his Skil saw... it was funny more than it was traumatic, even to him. It shot up and stuck underneath the sawhorse and we couldn't find it for about 15 minutes. After finding it we make our way out to the truck to take him to the hospital and he passed out and fell into the bushes next to his truck. We laughed the whole time.
So if I lose a leg, I hope I'm laughing during the process... eh, probably won't be, huh?
And to guide the thread back to it's origin: wow, those were some bad teeth.

I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by.

| Deleted User | Amazing! I went through the whole thing without really concentrating and I got 18 right out of 20!
What I primarily looked at were the eyes. The mouth movement can be faked, but it takes concentration to get the eyes right if you're faking it. The difference is subtle but then again I think our brain has some extremely advanced mechanisms for detecting details in the eyes of other peoples' faces.

You're either a genius, a bot, a lucky gambler or an Alien. You pick.

Status : Online | I did look at the eyes, but I got my pretty poor 11/20 (which pretty much means I cannot recognise genuine smiles). So, I suppose my own brain is lacking the mechanisms you speak of.
I suggest that you register with the International Board of Estimated Alien Guests.

Do not take life too seriously, because in the end, you won't come out alive anyway.

| Deleted User | I might be a bot, as my avatar suggests, but maybe I was just lucky. Once I took a second look at the two I missed (one wrongly guessed as fake, one as genuine) I thought they were rather obvious too, but of course I knew the correct answer then.
I think that fake smiles are rather constrained. People try to move their facial muscles by will and forget to move them all.
