70% of TabiPianist's useless knowledge is stuff she got from me! Her sister, EifieChan. :P And I am not pleased by it.

XD i find it easy to read tho
anyway to make this not spam:

  • Mosquitoes are attracted to the color blue twice as much as to any other color.
  • If one places a tiny amount of liquor on a scorpion, it will instantly go mad and sting itself to death.
  • Every night, wasps bite into the stem of a plant, lock their mandibles (jaws) into position, stretch out at right angles to the stem, and, with legs dangling, fall asleep.
  • Ants stretch when they wake up. They also appear to yawn in a very human manner before taking up the tasks of the day.
  • Bees have 5 eyes. There are 3 small eyes on the top of a bee's head and 2 larger ones in front.
  • The outdoor temperature can be estimated to within several degrees by timing the chirps of a cricket. It is done this way: count the number of chirps in a 15-second period, and add 37 to the total. The result will be very close to the actual Fahrenheit temperature. This formula, however, only works in warm weather. (Try it!)
  • In the United States, a pound of potato chips cost two hundred times more than a pound of potatoes.
  • Caesar salad has nothing to do with any of the Caesar. It was first concocted in a bar in Tijuana, Mexico, in the 1920's.
  • A raisin dropped in a glass of fresh champagne will bounce up and down continually from the bottom of the glass to the top.
  • Celery has negative calories! It takes more calories to eat a piece of celery than the celery has in it to begin with.
  • You burn more calories sleeping than you do watching television.(YES i copied and pasted agen STOP FLAMING ME TT__TT)
