How come so many people remember The Rock saying "Can you smell what The Rock is cooking ?" in the WWE even though he never said it that way?
He at one time did use the phrase “Do you smell what the Rock is cooking?” First the Rock in the WWE was Flex Cavanna but it only lasted one or two tv appearances. Then they tried rebranding him as Rocky Maivia. His stint as Rocky Maivia lasted long but did not go over as well as they would have liked. He got injured and disappeared for several months. He came back after being rebranded as the Rock and did a heel turn. He then became part of the the Nation of Domination which was similar to a Black Panther group. At first Ron Simmons did most of the talking, but when the Rock started talking more and more he became the dominate speaker for the group. He spouted long heel promos and would often in it state, “Do you smell what the Rock is cooking?” As a heel he was talking to the audience or his opponent or opponents of the Nation of Domination.Eventually Ron Simmons started resenting the Rock, and of course there was the falling out where the Rock became a face. Once that happened his new theme song actually started with him speaking “Do you smell what the Rock is cooking and was just as he talked it. The music started after he finished the phrase. The big change to the entrance music came later when he started ending his promos with the current “If you smellllllllllllll, (pause) what the Rock (pause) is cooking! Then the music started while he was saying it. Big difference. All in all he had many versions of his theme and many can be seen and heard on YouTube.Yes it truly did at one time start “Do You”. I know the question asks “Can you”, but that is a small memory error by many, but the difference between Can you and Do you is little. That still makes it a question. The Rock changing it to “If you” way back in the early 2000’s makes it a statement as opposed to a question.

What is the first mean thing you remember someone saying to you as a child?
I have had a hard time in schools right from the very beginning, I'm a hard working person, interverted but polite. When I was in elementary my grade five teacher pulled me into the hall and told me that I was a useless, awful,shitnosed little dumbass and just because I used bigger words to explain my points did not mean I was smart or that I should have never been born because who in their right mind would ever want someone like me. She went on to shout at me, her finger nails digging into my shoulders, saying that I would never find a man to marry me because I was so ugly, and that if I was her child she would have drowned me and no one would think badly of it.After she was done shouting and was standing there a full grin on her face, out of breath; I said as calmly as I could “I understand you may hate me but that does not give you the right to talk to me that way nor does it give you the right to touch me, to hurt me, to make me feel like I am less of what I am. You are wrong.”After I was done I turned and began walking away towards my class but I stopped and looked back at her, dead in the eyes, smiling and said “Its sad that you are so despite to feel powerful in your short, ugly, miserable life that you have to say such mean things. I pitty you, I really do.”She did nothing she stood there rigidly with a look on her face that still haunts me. It was something between angry,crazy,sad, and happy. I walked away as the bell had rung but she hadn't moved, even when a hured of children came through the doors down the hall running past her.Things went by smoothly until the police showed up at school saying they wanted to talk to me and my mom. We soon found out that there was a patrician made by my awful teacher to put me in a Psychiatric Facility because I was and I quote 'crazy' . My mom flipped her shit. She didn't even have the restraint to tell me to wait outside. It was an overwhelming experience but I made it through, I was tested and proven perfectly sane. My awful teacher had ended up in a car accident a month later, she died, and I'm not sorry to say she wasn't missed.
Said something out loud but don't remember saying it...?
I'm 28 years old and a teacher. Today at school I was really frustrated about something that I couldn't find. I had a fellow teacher in the room with me at the time. While I was looking for what I misplaced, I remember thinking in my head, "Sh*t". Suddenly, my coworker said, "What did you say?!?" since the door was open and students were out in the hallway. I know it sounds crazy and I am really worried but I honestly don't remember saying anything! I know I thought the word but I didn't hear myself think it. It's as if I totally blanked out for a second. She told me what I said and sure enough it was the word that I thought I was only thinking. Would anyone know what this, if anything, could be a possible symptom of? I've been worried about it all day because I certainly couldn't imagine saying anything like that in front of my students. I'm afraid I'm becoming schizo or something. I've never had any health problems before so I'm freaking out. Serious answers only please.
What do you remember about being taught to say the Pledge of Allegiance? How old were you, what version of the Pledge did you memorize, and how did you salute the flag?
I don't remember the activity of memorizing it but I memorized it somewhere along the line at a young age, somewhere between age 7 and 10 I suppose. Wasn't where there's more than one version. I learnef the one that was being said in the early 1960s. It had the phrase “under God” in it if that's what you meant.And other things I learned, you don't salute the flag if you're not in uniform, so we held our right hand over our heart, as we were taught to do when the flag passed by us in a parade for instance, or during the singing of the national anthem.I frankly can't remember how often I said it or where exactly. Suppose in school but I don't know if it was a daily or weekly or what.I do know that most of the time I was saying it at a young age I didn't really know what it meant. What's indivisible mean, and what's s republic?I did get a thorough grounding in the Constitution, I remember that, so people were paying attention to educating us on civics. But I don't recall anybody explaining exactly what the Pledge of Allegiance meant or being terribly interested in the subject.We learned various etiquettes and protocols related to these subjects. For instance the only correct way to dispose of the flag is to burn it, it should never touch the ground, it should be brought down at night, it should be brought down in the rain, things like that, rules nobody follows anymore.While I may have not understood in any detail what it all meant, it would was obvious that it meant in general that I be mindful of and respect the symbols of my country and be aware of a special relationship to it.Which was fine since at age 8 I didn't have any notions of pledging allegiance to much of anything else.I think mostly at that age it made me aware there was a nation to which I belonged.
