This is the greatest day of my life. Thank you.

That's very cool. In my house we have blue whale arteries instead of hallways.
Yeah, you would have to forcefully shove an infant into a blue whale artery for anyone inside of one. They are only like 9 inches in diameter. Their hearts however are the size of small cars. Really, can't you at least make your outlandish claims physically possible?

That eye is going to haunt my dreams.
Luckily, I almost never remember my dreams, or even was aware that I was dreaming when I wake up.

Seriously. This is cool, and I want to be accurate.
