Random fact

Steph0871 · August 2010

Puppy teeth are sharp as fvck. I just sliced open my toe on one.. guess I got to it before the dog could swallow it.

Any other random facts to share?

The new dentyne gum is delish but the packaging can slice open your finger.

A paper cutter can slice open your finger and break the bone if you swing the blade down hard enough.

<div>Ouch. I once heard that it's actually really easy to bite off someone's finger. About the same effort/ pressure as biting a carrot.</div>

The oldest goldfish was 41 years old. The oldest recorded Koi is over 200 years old.

I think I used all mine the other day

When you do your graduate degree online, they assume you have access to/knowledge of all kinds of technology you don't actually have

.

I have to find some way to digitally record a 30 minute convo and analyze it, but I have no recording devices. I'm hoping my webcam will somehow work.

female sharks are severely bitten during sex and they are often scarred. Also, great white sharks have insanely large penises.

Ew! That's really gross and weird that it would take so little to sever a finger.

I heard that Thomas Edison was afraid of the dark.

That's a good idea! I'll check. Maybe even my public library. Good thinking :)

Did you see the shark penis during Shark Week tonight when they were feeding on the whale? Wtf was that thing? I think I'm going to have nightmares :(

It did remind me of the e-how to role play a Shark Attack and I started laughing hysterically.

thesuninherhead · August 2010

I was just reading the most hideous news story that demonstrates your point entirely:

<div>I did. I also saw them when they were mating at that other seal island really close to the shore. Poor lady sharks!</div><div>
</div><div>Now Im watching that scottish guy try to build up the nerve to dive with the sharks. I think I'd rather go to bed though. After last night I can't deal with any more shark bite stories. </div>

kimheartsscott · August 2010

Don't sharks have 2 penises?

"did I tell you 'bout his 4 nuts? well, he also had 4 diicks."

npasquale16 · August 2010

Did everyone see the youtube video of the shark with the penis in its mouth? WTF was that?

SarahPLiz · August 2010

HA! It sure looks like they do. Actually, I wouldn't be surprised. They seem to have plenty of balls.

kimheartsscott · August 2010

Sun WTF.

katiewhompus · August 2010

From the looks of it yes Kim.

Dolphins have prehensile penises, as in, they can grab things with them, like lady dolphins. I remember watching a video about that in 10th grade bio and the class behaving really inappropriately for weeks after.

Don't male cat's have barbs on their penises? I'm starting to think mating sucks for 90% of the species on earth...

Yes, hence the awful sounds of cat torture under my window all night long. Its really not their fault. I'd howl too.

katiewhompus · August 2010

When Demon was little one of her baby teeth ended up on the kitchen floor. I stepped on it, then freaked when I realized what it was. Called the vet who explained baby teeth in cats to me (without sounding like I was a total moron) and said most puppies/kitties swallow them and it's rare for us to find them.

kimheartsscott · August 2010

I took a quiz on discovery to see if I was good at shark sex and one of the question had to do with how many pensises I would have. I got a 71% and was mildly disappointed.

kd.joseph · August 2010

Sun I read that this morning. My question was why didnt he wake up but apparently he was drunk.

SarahPLiz · August 2010

apparently sharks have barbs too:

Whichever clasper is engaged usually has all sorts of hooks and spurs and stuff to help make sure your little lady doesn't swim off before you're done. After it expands, these little appendages secure you to each other so nobody slips away before it's time.

double ouch!

ETA: Thanks for the quiz, Kim. that was fun and informative and a bit scary. The only one I missed was about the duration.

Steph0871 · August 2010

Damn. I'm going to thank FI tonight for his lack of penis barbs.

Another sex fact: pigs have 30-minute orgasms.

nda_roxybabe · August 2010

I'm glad human penises don't have barbs!

leayn · August 2010

Male seahorses have the babies. I wish I was a seahorse.

missy68 · August 2010

Or have 30 minute orgasms....

I have never once seen or stepped on/discovered a puppy tooth. I'm very grateful for that. Max got lots and lots of hard, bite-y toys when he started teething. I wanted those things out as fast as possible. He liked to gnaw on us, too, and puppy teeth hurt in AND out of mouths.

It took 20 years to arrest the Green River Killer. The lead detective who started the case was Sheriff when they arrested Gary Ridgway, who was an original suspect, but they didn't have DNA. They had him bite on a piece of gauze way back in like 84, and froze it. When DNA evidence started being used, they pulled that out, and he was an exact match to evidence collected from 4 women. Ted Bundy even offered his insight to the detectives and the FBI working the case.
