Raining animals - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Everything about this article, from the bizarre premise of jellyfish raining from the sky to the funny section about "raining cats and dogs" amuses me to no end.

Bizarre facts about the world, on Wikipedia or whateva!
Bizarre Fact #1: The Earth is roughly 2,000 years old and any evidence that appears to predate this information is, by necessity, fabricated.
Fixed. And here's proof.Quote:

I had this little deck of cards that had neat little facts printed on them. The only one I remember said that if you were to align the solar system and scale it down to fit on a human body head to foot, Uranus would be where your butt is. Is it true? I don't know!
You would think that info would actually be available on wikipedia.Quote:

Normalizing that to 6ft, we get that uranus is 3.081 feet from the top of your body, 2.919 feet from the bottom of your body.
Supposing that the average human is 8 heads high, so a head therefore is defined to be .75ft The ass sits at about the 4 head mark, or 3 ft down from your head.
Sooo... yeah, basically.
Your ears and nose continue to to grow until u die....
Pacific Parrotlets will kill their mate in a jealous rage if there are other birds around to prevent flirting.
The only reason I know this is because I've recently looked into acquiring a pair.

Did you know that snails have projectile penises to fertilize their mate and that walking in your garden, if you have a fair amount of snails, you've probably been hit by one?

It is a very funny website!
By squeezing your left thumb with the rest of your fingers on your left hand, you have no gag reflex.
Your earlobes line up with your nipples.
Men have nipples because technically, all humans are female in the womb until around the 2nd to 3rd month, when the Y chromosome could take over for one X chromosome. Even if they are male, the nipples have already developed.
This probably has to do with exerting yourself to distract you from your gag reflex rather than some mysterious connection between your fingers and throat (which does not pass the "bull:bou::bou::bou::bou: test" for me). Squeezing your nipples or digging your fingernails into your thigh will presumably have a similar effect.Quote:

I would have, but I was working. :(Quote:

"The original spelling of KOOL-AID was Kool-Ade, but the name was soon changed to its popular modern-day spelling.
Based on per capital sales, KOOL-AID is most popular in Memphis, Tennessee. The other top five cities are (in order) Little Rock, St. Louis, Oklahoma City, and Jacksonville, Florida.
KOOL-AID is certainly an All-American favorite. So it's no surprise that more KOOL-AID is sold the week right before and the week after the 4th of July than any other period during the year."
