[WP] The year is 2050. Warren Buffet, at 120 years old, is still running his company. Bezos has a full head of hair. No billionaire has died since 2032. It came about slowly, but people are starting to realize something isn't right.	6801	Andyinater

[WP] You can take a peek into people's souls, to take a look at who they were in their past lives. Some of your friends were emperors or kings. Others were pharaohs or chieftains.

[WP] You're rather annoyed that your history teacher gave you a D on your essay about Mesopotamia. Not just because you're sure she doesn't like you, but also because - as an ancient being trying to adapt to modern society - YOU WERE THERE.	6795	phormix
[WP] You're the only human in the world who can use magic. Rather than being locked up or amything, you have to deal with a lot of passive-aggressive laws set up wherever you go about the use of magic.	6794	NatalieIsFreezing
[WP] Having failed in every attempt to kill Batman, the villains of Gotham had given up. With nothing to do, they started a D & D group and had been meeting for several weeks in the back room of a local Tavern.
