Oh were you scared of snakes before?



Well know they just got a bit creepier to you didn't they.

For the record , Snakes are probably my second favorite animal. They are nature's ultimate underdog. They have no limbs or  external ears and  mediocre  eyesight yet have managed to be one of the  deadliest animals in the world. Not to mention the inhabit every continent except for Antarctica.


This is animal with just about every handicap you can have and yet they've managed to overcome each one and  not just survive  but thrive.



Hell ,  a certain species of snakes lives in trees. This is a creature with no limbs  whose main habitat is trees. That's damn impressive.

Stuff They Don't Want You to Know - Number Stations


Yeah. Have fun sleeping tonight.

Do you want the frequency?

What's the frequency, Kenneth?

(No, seriously, I have a list of them somewhere, but it might be outdated.)

Despite being one of the most well known people in history and ruling over a massive empire , Nobody knows what race Attila The Hun was or even where he was born.


Since the huns were nomadic  and traveled around mainland Europe and  , The Huns and Attila could've been anything from Turkish to German to Xiongnu.

The only reason Atilla is portrayed as Asian is because of a second hand report by Jordanes who was roman and not a hun himself.

Heck , In Wll Allied propaganda referred to the Germans as "Huns." but this was due to a speech by  Emperor Wilhelm II and not any historical note.

I dare you to look away. I dare you.

That there being advertised right there is a real thing and not fake. And remember... it's for "freethinkers."

I remember Juggalos.  Aren't they the fans of Insane Clown Posse or something like that?

Fans of Insane Clown Posse would be puzzling enough, but they're really more like cultists of Insane Clown Posse. It's like if Ralph Wiggum from the Simpsons crossed over into our world and built a cult of personality around himself as a bad-ass rapper.

Yeah - that's a better description.  I remember it from when ICP was a wrestling tag-team.

Abraham Lincoln  . Albert Einstein and Theodore Roosevelt  had no middle name.

In fact , Seventeen out of Forty Three presidents have no middle names.


.

It must be odd having two letter initials.

[Oniya]

Harry Truman's middle name was S - that's it, nothing else, just S.

You'd have to  drink fifty to sixty percent of your body weight in heavy water to kill you.

So if you've ever wanted a glass of   a form of water that contains a larger than normal amount of the hydrogen isotope deuterium ,  go ahead. You'll be fine as long as you don't drink to much.


Also , Heavy water has been shown to increase the lives of fruit flies by thirty percent.

I really do kind of wonder what heavy water taste like.

[Oniya]

I think drinking that much regular water would kill you from hyponatremia.

There was actually a Hogan's Heroes episode where the boys convinced Klink and Schultz that the heavy water that was being stored at the Stalag was water from the Fountain of Youth

Camels mate by having both male and female sitting on the ground, with the male mounting from behind. The male usually ejaculates three or four times within a single mating session.

I wonder if camels have more orgasms in their life then their human counterparts.

Today class for mind blowing 101 we're going to cover the magic of anagrams!
=======================================================


Making Punishment   into Nine Thumps just takes a little bit of imagination (and possibly a paddle)

Another example is that Real Life can be made into : Feral Lie.

Next up! Debit card can make : Bad credit

Got the hang of it yet? Slot machines can be changed into : Cash lost in 'em

A decimal point can be changed into: I'm a dot in place

Republician or Democrat you might say Election results : Lies – let's recount

A little Desperation can make: A rope ends it

Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide

For bonus points look at the first letter of each word see what it makes an anagram of.

Oh god I just ruined Star Wars for myself. If Wookie's live on a jungle planet , why did they grow all that hair? Their home world is incredibly hot ,  how does all that hair benefit them in such a climate?  Their evolution doesn't make any sense! Damn it.
