Over in New Zealand, surfers have noticed the same thing that those who ride the waves in California have witnessed: ducks can surf. The birds do so in order to catch food or simply to move through the water quickly.

If you've ever wondered why we call unsolicited email "spam," just ask a Monty Python fan. The term was inspired by a skit from the British comedy group that featured Vikings loudly (and annoyingly, though hilariously) singing "spam, spam, spam" in an effort to drown out others who were trying to talk.

According to Wired, applying the analogy to modern-day spam works because "unsolicited email is seen as drowning out normal discourse on the internet." Even Merriam-Webster dictionary credits Monty Python with the term, explaining that spam comes "from a skit on the British television series Monty Python's Flying Circus in which chanting of the word 'spam' overrides the other dialogue."

While people in English-speaking countries tend to say "achoo" and French-speaking countries go with the similar sounding "atchoum," Germans say "hatschi" and the Japanese say "hakshun."

If you look at the skin on the inside of your wrists, you'll see a few lines that become deep creases when you bend your hand inwards. These grooves have a name—rasceta—in case you ever find a need to refer to them.

Happy pride month if you need someone to confide in my dms are always open even if I can't help you right away. I know coming out can be really hard but if you need someone to talk to about it I'm here. When I came out it was really hard for me seeing as my mother gives this homophobic vibe although she accepted me she still has a few bumps in the road. Just know you're loved by me if no one else says they do, I'm always hereto talk about things with you even when I'm not online. Here's a few fun facts:

There is a parasite called Dracun culiasis, or more commonly "Guinea worm" that can enter your leg through drinking infected water. You won't notice anything until ~1 year later, when a small portion breaks the skin to release larvae. At this point, it's a meter long.

A. Meter. Long.

And it has to be extracted centimeter by disgusting centimeter.

NTDs are the stuff of nightmares.

you can die from shitting too hard

Humans have enough bite power to bite off their finger. Bone and all. The only thing stopping us is our brain's natural safety factor.

The victim has all four limbs broken in multiple places, and is then threaded through the spokes of the wheel. The wheel is placed on a vertical pole and left in the sun until the victim dies. I'm not sure which is worse, the broken bones or being eaten by the crows whilst up there.

In the event of a water landing, flight attendants are specifically required to not allow dead bodies on the life rafts. No saving your dead parent/child/spouse for burial. Yeet that b*tch overboard.

"A professor at my lecture today said that deer will lay on decaying corpses because they produce heat and the deer like that. Basically deer treat corpses as their personal sauna."

There’s something called “Anaesthesia Awareness” where of certain people go into surgery and they don’t give you enough Anaesthesia, it will look like you’re asleep (eyes closed, not talking or moving), but the patient can still hear and feel everything that’s happening, but here’s the scary part. You’re unable to move, speak or open your eyes. Unless they have a monitor to show your brain activity, you’re stuck with having to endure the pain.
