I've read stories about how Gates McFadden was kind of a b#$@h to people back then. Shatner was a jerk too, read up on how he treated Wil Wheaton once when TNG was just starting.
I hated those things, we had swarms of them every fall for several years in a row and they'd be all over the house, the ceilings, everywhere. One of the rumors was that they were dumping them out of planes by the bucket full to eat aphids and the population kind of exploded out of control. They haven't been as bad for the last few years though.
I never thought shots hurt much myself. I've sometimes had them and sat waiting like a doofus because I didn't even realize that I'd gotten it. At worst it's just a slight pinch.
Max, wtf are you going on about? The article is about kids that are too picky about the food they eat, not about making them eat when they aren't hungry. Go be crazy somewhere else.
With witchcraft of course.
