    • A girl appeared on a German TV show to identify Star Wars minifigs, not through any conventional way of referencing Peeron or Bricklink but by using her mouth! I’d say that’s a pretty useful skill to have, don’t you think?

      This may seem silly, but I had to use this very same skill when I was trapped down a well for 30 days but still needed to add new stories to The Brick Testament. Fortunately it’s easy to differentiate God, Jesus, and Satan in my mouth. God is bitter, Jesus is salty, and Satan is sweet.

      I’d say that she’s going to be very popular in college as an adult. :)

      Drat, I’ve have been telling my 3 year for nearly a year to not put LEGO in his mouth. Just think he may of ended up on German TV!!

      I just wonder how she discovered she had this, um, talent. Quite bizarre.

      Meh, call me back when she can tell set figs from magnet-pack figs with her mouth.

      Hey, I’d hire her if she could identify collector’s figs through the poly bags. XD

      Yes, I too would pay to fly that girl to the US, cover her lodging and incidental expenses, and pay her a reasonable hourly fee to help me identify collector’s figs through the poly bags. ;)

      I never thought I’d say this, but I think the Germans just out-weirded the Japanese.

      I think you’re all missing the point. The point is that the b&w artoo goggles are the coolest eyewear ever. Maybe not so good for driving.

      Wow. The talent itself doesn’t seem all that hard, as most of the headgear readily distinguishes the figs from one another. It’s the whole fact that she got on a tv show, which took her very seriously, instead of her just getting a short video on youtube, that’s the oddest thing, to me.

      Great. Another thing to add to the the list of things my girlfriend doesn’t do with her mouth. Thanks a lot Nannan.

      I like that she’s doing it in front of a stadium full of people.

      Wait, how is this useful?

      And no, the Japanese are still on top for weirdness.
