Don't think that would work in a fact topic. Especially with all the scientific talk flying around in here.

We live in a very impoverished world indeed if the only things recognised as fact are those from just the physical sciences.

Easter Island used to be a forested island, until its inhabitants triggered catastrophic environmental collapse by chopping down every tree in the race to build ever-more imposing moai.

I'd rather say nothing is fact until it's proven. There's no solid guarantee that the universe was created from a big bang, yet there's no guarantee that it was created by a being from a higher plane than humanity either.


Anywho...

Bats always turn left when exiting a cave.

A polar bear's skin is black. It's fur has no pigment and is actually clear.

Ants never sleep in their lifespan.

My point is simply that there are such things as historical facts too, which do not necessarily have anything to do with science. Though, of course, since all history is interpretation, such "facts" can get distorted by bias, so more care is needed when handling them.

Here's a bit of interesting trivia for aspiring writers and philosophers: Voltaire was, among many other things, quite a savvy investor who made enough from accumulated capital (and an advantageous relationship) to enjoy a fairly leisurely lifestyle.

Proof enough (for me, at least) that being a writer doesn't necessarily mean being penniless.

Actually, a fact is an opinion that is argued and generally agreed upon by the results produced for that matter. Therefore in statistics, facts can be faked by simply omitting a few numbers as anomalous and random errors.

This is called "throwing chaff/smoke bomb", a navy/army term respectively using smokescreen to cover tactical advances.

Mathematically, Voltaire would have been one of the most influential and richest men in the world right now if it wasn't for his mortality - his assets are worth as much as Bill Gates, Martha Stewart and Buffett combined through inflation.

Most of all, you have to be disciplined and you have to save, even if you hate our current financial system. Because if you don't save, then you're guaranteed to end up with nothing.

A cat's tongue is full of tiny barbs, giving it a sandpaper-like texture.

...so, by extension, French-kissing a catgirl would likely be quite an unforgettable experience indeed.




Let's not even talk about oral sex with a catgirl, shall we?

A cat's facial muscles do not serve the purpose of facial expression, but rather, feeding itself. It uses them to control the teeth to clean flesh off the bones of fish.

So be prepared for multiple wounds on your tongue if you plan to french a catgirl.

Oral sex with one is an entirely different case though.

The problem is, the catgirl would already be dead... because you're applying physics to an anime-type character

You may have a point there... but isn't a bad idea to apply any form of science to any form of anime in general?

Why not? Some Physics researchers are driven by Gundam technology, and most governments attempt to copy stuff off Macross.

The Mega particle is based on the idea of Muon-catalysed fusion. Which makes thermonuclear fusion more feasible in micro-energy plants where helium can be readily fused with hydrogen.

The bacteria clostridium botulinium produces the most toxic substance on Earth, an extremely potent neurotoxin with an LD50 in humans around 1 ng/kg!

Don't eat from any dented cans!

All this big-worded science talk is making my head spin :eyspin:

If you have 3 quarters, 4 dimes, and 4 pennies, you have $1.19. You also have the largest amount of money in coins without being able to make change for a dollar.

The 57 on Heinz ketchup bottles represents the number of varieties of pickles the company once had.

Limburger cheese is a cheese famous for it's pungent odor.
And the reason for it's unique smell is because the bacteria use to ferment the cheese is also the same bacteria that causes human body odor.

(Bonus points if you were eating Limburger cheese while reading this. Enjoy!)
