Useless Information for Today
« on: February 26, 2016, 06:14:42 AM »
Not sure if it will fly, but let's try it.  This is like impossible trivia, all you need to post is a information that's completely useless and that's why you will never forget it either  ;D

Here is a start:

Report by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife says that the stomach contents of 83 mountain lions were largely composed of cats, dogs, and other domesticated animals.

Note:  I do not know if this is true... it is just something that I have heard.  Something to think about....

The male giraffe will continuously headbutt the female in the bladder until she urinates. The male then tastes the pee and that helps it determine whether the female is ovulating. If she is, it's business time.

If the population of China walked past you in single file, the line would never end because of the rate of reproduction.


Yeah, no. This like from "Ripley's Believe it or not" circa 1930's.

Besides, how would they reproduce while they're all walking?  ::)

Here's another useless fact, the population of India is expected to surpass China by 2022.  ;D
