    New game idea. Basically, you try to post a very obscure fact that you're sure is not common knowledge.

    I shall start. A pig's orgasm can last up to 30 minutes.

    Hmm...
    All of the visible matter in the Universe accounts for only about 25% of the total matter in the Universe.

    In the average lifetime, a person will walk the equivalent of 5 times around the equator.

    Thomas Edison was a real arse hole. He conned Nikola Tesla for his brilliant developments in the field of alternating current electricity, and he electrocuted animals with it to convince people that AC was extremely dangerous.

    "The Swift Fox Jumped Over The Lazy Dog" has every single letter in the alphabet.

    I bet everyone knows that though.

    Dolphins have a set of bones in their fins that look remarkably like hands.

    You can repair scratches or remove smudges on a CD with the use of bananas. All you really need are; banana, banana peel, and glass cleaner. :') I've actually done it and it works! Haha. Of all things.

    "Was it a car or a cat I saw" is the longest English palindrome sentence. That is, you can spell it backwards (without the spaces) and it will be the same.

    Well, damn >_>

    Carrots weren't always orange. The Dutch bred them to be orange, and generally sweeter.

    I think this figure is correct, but Japanese schools have the highest suicide rate of any schools in the world.
    If the above figure isn't correct, the United States Presidency has the highest rate of assassination of any office in the United States.

    Anatidaephobia is the fear that somewhere in the world there is a duck watching you.

    Uluru, or Ayer's Rock as it was formerly known, is the world's largest single rock. It is 348 metres high above ground level, and most of its bulk lies underground.

    OH MAN, somebody leaked the secret. Bummer.


    Spiders aren't immune to cobweb stickiness, rather, every spiderweb has periodical non-sticky spots, and they instinctively step onto them.

    There are four "fundamental forces" in the Universe: Gravity, electromagnetism, the weak nuclear force (which governs how atoms decay), and the strong nuclear force (which holds atomic nuclei together). Of these, gravity is the weakest.
    Oh, my... I'm going to start throwing out all sorts of physics facts out now.
