"Useless Facts"
a. If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days,
you would have produced enough sound energy
to heat one cup of coffee. (Hardly seems worth it.)
b. If you expelled gas consistently for 6 years and
9 months, enough gas would be produced to create the
energy of an atomic bomb. (Now, that's more like it.)
c. The human heart creates enough pressure when it
pumps out to the body to squirt blood 30 feet. (OMG!)
d. A pig's orgasm lasts 30 minutes. ( In my next life,
I want to be a pig )
e. Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories
an hour. (I'm still not over the pig.)
f. A cockroach will live nine days without its head, before
it starves to death. (Creepy!)
g. The male praying mantis cannot copulate while its head
is attached to its body. The female initiates sex by ripping
the male's head off. ("Honey, I'm home. What the..." )
h. Some lions mate over 50 times a day. (I still want to be
a pig in my next life. Quality over quantity.)
i. Butterflies taste their own feet. (Something I always
wanted to know.)
j. Elephants are the only animal that cannot jump.
(OK, so that would be a good thing.. )
k. A cat's urine glows under a black light. (I wonder
who was paid to figure that out.)
l. An ostrich's eye is bigger than its brain. (I know
some people like that. )
m. Starfish have no brains. (I know some people
like that, too. )
n. Polar bears are left handed. (Who knew? Who
cares! )
o. Humans and dolphins are the only species that
have sex for pleasure. (What about the pig?!)
