The lick your elbow one has been going around my school recently and everyone tries it and fails. Quite funny, but this is old for me now...

...the shrimp heart thing was interesting.

That's not true either... A friend of mine has a child...The child's birth mother was my friend's partner. So now we've got these two women with a child, but neither ever had sex with the biological father, the child was concieved artificially...Another fact burns...:)

I think you might want to rephrase that as there are 17 ways to make a baby (18 really, but remove #1 of course). And then there's the possibility your mom won't need your dad but, you'd be a girl. ;)
