No, no. I'm probably above the average as it stands.  ... Even though I'm only 15 ... but that's not the point! Actually, I got that fact from 8 out of 10 Cats, last night. Great show. |

"A British male on average gives up six months of his life span ogling women, starting with her breasts and working down to her legs, says a survey. The arithmetic is based on a target rate of eight different girls per day with an eyeing time of two minutes per girl, reports Sky News...." Source: Dvorak Uncensored |

Woot! I shall join in!
Rubidium is so reactive with moisture, it has to be stored in argon gas.
Einstein's brain was smaller than average.
It would take about twice the time that the universe has existed and a piece of paper much larger than the known universe to write down a googolplex (10 to the power of 10 to the power of 100)

Well I'm pretty sure the Brit's have heard of this show.. QI. I love it.
The Isle of Wight was the last place to be converted to Christianity it is also the only place in England to have no grey squirrels.
In 1904 the olympics were held in St Louis and it held bizarre events. In the marathon 2 of the first men across the line were disqualified for being poisoned and the winner was disqualified for going most of the way by car. The 4th position went to a Cuban postman who during the marathon stopped off in an orchard to eat some apples which he did not know were rotten.. and poisoned himself. He had to take a nap yet still came 4th. Another contestent had to run nearly a kilometre out of his way because he was chased by a dog.
You have to swallow a swozzle twice to become a professor of Punch and Judy [swozzle is the thing that they make the noise with]
There are 2 ways to get rid of fear - Graded desenitisation where you are gradually introduced to your fear or flooding where you just throw the person in the deep end. The example on QI is a story that Jo Brand explains [she's a comedian] from when she was a psychiatric nurse. One of her patients had a fear of sperm so to get rid of it they put said person into a bathtub of sperm filled by the medical students over a long weekend. =]
Why is the emperor penguin like Santa? - They both come once a year. AHAHA. The male gets 10 seconds of ejaculation.
If you want to take up smoking but want to increase your life expectancy by 8 years what should you do? Castrate. Castration adds 13 years onto a male's life. Other good things about castration is you don't go bald or get acne.
The commonest metal in the human body is calcium.
As men age the hair on the lower part of the shin stops growing.
People who sleep 4-7 hours a night will live a lot longer than those who sleep 8+.
I think that's enough for now. ;P

Hehehe. QI is brilliant. Everyone picking on Alan Davies Iron, the element found in the blood which attracts oxygen to the red blood cell, gives blood it's red colour, as iron ions are red. Some spiders, however, have copper in their blood. This does exactly the same thing as iron, except that copper ions are blue, and so these spiders have blue blood. |

QI = My new God. haha.
And Alan Davis makes me crack up.
Kurt Cobain named "Smells like Teen spirit" after an event that happened to him. He slept with a girl and she wrote "Kurt Cobain smells like teen spirit" which was the crappiest of crappiest cologne you could get. =]

Lmfao. This is a rumour/fact. I'm not sure if someone was just winding me up or whether it's true. I so hope it's not true. If you rub a mans nipples for 5 years or so they begin to lactate.  ; I dunno, but Pigs have it mega good compared to the Penguins. Sheesh. Once a year for 10 seconds. Why live!? Haha, flooding the fear. They'd have to put me in a f**king straight jacket to get me anywhere near a clown. No. Way. Will. That. Happen. I make sure I get about 7 hours a night.. But then I can sleep for 12/14 at the weekend. o___o;; |

Lmfao @ UM.
The song Gloomy Sunday was 'so depressing' that the BBC had it banned until 2002. Many people have commited suicide because of it.

Everyone dies. Technically, that's not a fact. But then ... eh, I shouldn't get philosophical, should I? I can't help it if I've just had an Epistomology lesson today, though ... Weell ... I have no 'facts'. |
