EX. Did anyone else catch the connection between the Boos from the Super Mario Bros. series and the Weeping Angels from Doctor Who? You can't look at either, even blink, or they can attack you in that moment. Also, the picture that person who made this meme pic used for the top half of the pic kind of used a picture from the episode Dinosaurs on a Spaceship, which has nothing to do with Weeping Angels (Note Cleopatra, Rory's Dad, and that random British adventurer guy). Shrug.
