I don't know how much of BNW has relative to it but I know 1984 is related.

I am thinking that that is one of the few reasons that should allow torture.

I do not understand this comment. Can you please expand on what it is you think justifies torture?

Menticide- death by Mentos. Swallow five or six whole and then chug a diet Pepsi.

Please note- this is not serious! DO NOT ACTUALLY TRY THIS! :eek::eek::eek:

If you are stupid enough to try it, you deserve whatever happens to you!
