Cats have funny little spikes on the end of their willies, and i wish my DP had them too, it looks kind of, errr, tickly! Pigs have curlies willies and iguanas, contrary to common belief have only one penis but it sort of separates and it appears that they have two, but one of them wont actually work.

TO SEX A FRUITFLY - Male fruitlies abdomens end in a rounded end with quite a big brown strip, wheras females have pointy abodomens and smaller stripes on the end.

The escape response of the fruitfly is a reflex action in response to being cast into shadow (light off response) and takes EXACTLY 1.2 milliseconds in a healthy fly. The first part of the response is a jump (0.8) milliseconds, closely followed by a downstroke of the wings (1.2 milliseconds).

The cat penis causes the female pain on withdrawal which stimulates ovulation and a loud yell.

I'll retract my wish for my DP to have a more feline penis then!!

[mrsdonkeybucket]

Hearing cats having sex is horrific.

When food or drink "goes down the wrong way" you aren't choking, you're aspirating. If you were choking you wouldn't be able to breathe.

It's very difficult to swallow solids and liquids together. When you eat cereal such as cornflakes you chew a bit, syphon off the milk and swallow it, chew again, then swallow the cornflakes.

Sorry, can only think of job related facts at the moment.

[mrsdonkeybucket]

Damn. Posted too soon.

Meant to add, prickly willies must be why.

Lady Jane Grey ruled for nine days. It's my favourite fact and has stood me in good stead for many a pub quiz :)

[MiceHaveFeelingsToo]

'Able was I ere I saw Elba' is another good palindrome to remember

Male pigs have corkscrewed penises; they literally screw into the female who is then unable to easily get the male off her until he is done. ouch

Humans, monkeys, apes, bats and guinea pigs are the only mammals unable to synthesis their own vitamin C, hence the need for them to ensure a diet rich in fruit and veg to avoid conditions like scurvey.

[MiceHaveFeelingsToo]

Cats can carry kittens fathered by more than one male, ie 2 separate litters, at the same time. This explains why a litter might contain kittens of wildly differing colours and markings.

I've peed 4 times today.

Fact.

The Hundred Years war lasted for 116 years.

ODEON (as in the cinema chain) got its name from the founder - Oscar Deutsch Entertains Our Nation.

I THINK that might be true for dogs too. Unpleasant fact about dogs - they reabsorb aborted feotuses :(

"No word rhymes with orange"

I beg to differ. Minge. :o

It is very difficult to learn Norwegian, in English, if you only speak Lithuanian.

(That is not something google will tell you, though....)

[garlicbutter]

Wow Not only do female cats get their vaginas ripped to shreds during sex, have to be in screaming pain to ovulate, but they then get to be simultaneously impregnated by multiple toms? Yikes.

I don't imagine a cat can be a feminist, so I'm glad I had mine 'done'! Poor things.

Mind you, I have heard her doing the "cat-shag wail" from time to time, so I guess I haven't saved her from the painful bit :(

[SarahStratton]

A mule is the result of breeding a male donkey and a female horse. A hinny is the result of breeding a male horse and a female donkey.

[mrsdonkeybucket]

No, getting her done just means she can't have kittens, she can still be a dirty little pussy !

[garlicbutter]

Quintessential - It is very difficult to learn Norwegian, in English, if you only speak Lithuanian.

No kidding???!

[SarahStratton]
