Apparently Spongebob's German name is "Spongebob Schwammkopf" which means Spongebob Spongehead lol

I just heard that from the Hololive streamer Kiara, so I decided to look at some other German names, and they're pretty amusing.

Thaddus Tentakel
Larry von Lobster
Abfalleimer (The Chum Bucket's name translates to Trash Bucket lol)

The opening song is beautiful

Venus is the hottest planet in the solar system even though Mercury is closer to the sun. This is because Venus has very dense greenhouse gases.

Conches have funny eyes :3

Random Topher Grace facts

• His name is Christopher John Grace
• He didn't like being called Chris, so when he introduced himself he would say something like "Hi, my name's Christopher", and they would say "Nice to meet you Chris", he'd say "Topher...". He jokingly told the hottest girl at his boarding school that he might use that as his name, and she said "That's cute!", which is what finalized it lol
• When he was in the Venom costume in Spider-Man 3, he didn't drink water during breaks because he couldn't use the bathroom with the suit on lol

Elvis had a chimp named Scatter. Unfortunately, he was quite the troublemaker. He would tear up dressing rooms when Elvis took him to filmings, and lift up womens skirts. He also liked to drink alcohol. One theory as to what caused his death is that servants who were sick of his behavior.

Random Grover Cleveland facts

• He was the first president to be married in the White House
• His wife Frances Cleveland is the youngest First Lady at 21-years-old; 27 years younger than her husband
• He is the only president to serve non-consecutive terms

Bees don't have ears, so they "hear" by sensing vibrations in the air through their antennae and legs

I am not meaning to hold a mistake against you or whimsy against you.

Besides, I never would have learned about plants making sound and responding to sound.

Hard to believe is all the more amazing.

Okay, thank you for being understanding rather than hostile about the situation.

Also the watering thing is interesting. Its probably why my plants never did well lol

I mean I remembered seeing it in a book I had a long time ago so I went to find online info about it now.

Still though, it would be appreciated if you could be a bit more understanding about innocent mistakes that harm no one. Im not telling people that horse dewormer cures covid; Im just saying what I read years ago and found on a lot of generally reputable websites so I assumed it to be true.

And whimsy is sort of my thing. I tend to put faces at the end of most of my sentences/paragraphs unless its serious, and react to posts with one or more of my literally hundreds of reaction pics. So please, correct me if I present false information, but try to do so in a polite fashion.

But why would so many news outlets knowingly post false information :<

You really should give references for above, plants crying. I checked the Internet just to be sure but I was about chide you for being facetious. I am going to hunt for links.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37001499/
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37344301/

The first is the source and the second is what my search turned up and where I found the source.

( So cutting edge that any moment I expect someone to reveal to me I fell for a hoax.)

There are a bunch of other sources but I'm too lazy to post them all. Also some links are too long.

Also I don't quite get that stuff you posted. It says "airborne sounds emitted by stressed plants have not been investigated before" when that's obviously false.

Yep. Your entire existence is getting sliced up over and over and all you can do is silently scream D:

Plants cry when theyre stressed or cut, but its too high pitched for humans to hear. When they need water or have been recently cut, they make roughly 35 sounds per hour, while well-hydrated, uncut plants make just about one per hour.

I case anyone was wondering, the name they changed it to was TrekStor Blaxx :3

Back in 1997 a guy tried to bungee jump off a 70 foot railroad trestle using bungee cords. Those little stretchy cords with hooks at each end.

He ended up making it too long, and just went splat

I learned something hilarious from Doctor Mike today. Apparently theres this thing called the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10), which is a bunch of codes that describes reasons for visits in health care settings. And the funny thing is that it has such specific stuff. For example:

W61.32 = Struck by chicken
V91.07 = Burn due to water-skis on fire
V97.33XD = Sucked into jet engine, subsequent encounter

This is how they censored Winnie the Pooh in KH3 in China lol

Paint Drying is a film protesting censorship in the UK by the British Board of Film Classification. Its 607 minutes of white paint drying on a brick wall. Its purpose was to make the BBFC watch all 10 hours of it to give it an age rating (it was rated U for Universal lol).

Lmao the Lego castle

What Medievel Castle Toilets look like.

The first modern flushable toilet was invented in 1596 by Sir John Harrington who installed one for his godmother, Elizabeth I.

Occasionally, some brave knights would conduct sneak attacks by entering the castle via the shaft connected to the garderobe. Throughout history, there have been a number of famous people who died on the toilet. Several of them were stabbed from below while in the process of defecating.

NBA legend David Robinson's nickname was The Admiral because after graduating from the U.S. Naval Academy, where he majored in mathematics, he served in the Navy from 1983 to 1987.

In some games such as the first Mass Effect, sprinting doesnt actually make you run faster; it just zooms the camera in and changes the running animation. This was because the hardware on the original Xbox needed time to load, so they couldnt afford to speed up lol

The game is apparently really bad- lazy full idle combat, tap tycoon stuff, bad VIP, huge cash grab, etc. The cheapest way to buy a 10 pull from the shop with real money costs over $40 lol. Even that Digimon game that closed down relatively recently was about $20 for a 10 pull D:

When Kim Jong Un became supreme leader of North Korea in 2011, he forced everyone else named Jong Un to change their names. He also recently extended the rule to include his daughters name, Kim Ju-Ae

Oof, that husbando game Tokyo Debunker started hiding negative comments and blocking people on Twitter lol

Contrary to whats shown in movies and tv shows, it takes chloroform at least 5 minutes to knock someone out lol

It's really a shame. I absolutely love the character designs and art style in Arknights, but hate how they're always adding new mechanics in every event :<

If they ever make Talulah playable though, I might just grit my teeth and bear it lol

I actually liked how 7 Mortal Sins was really generous with pulls. I dont recall what pushed me away from the game aside from the lack of character variety. But thats hardly their fault, with the few main characters they had to work with lol. I hate all games where they need to stuff the roster with alts because there arent enough characters from the source :<

As long as a game isnt from Netmarble, Moonton, Boltrend, or EA, Ill give it a shot. Once a game makes some sort of monetary fraud with absolutely no attempt to rectify it though, they join those fellas on the shit list >:(

Genndy Tartakovsky did the storyboard for the fight scene in Iron Man 2 when Iron Man and War Machine fought the drones and Ivan Vanko.

So I started playing Demian Saga, and Im having fun so far. You get a random UR, choose 2 SSRs (well one is with an infinite reroll), and around 250 summon tickets. And then I noticed Iris a character who rides atop a quadrupedal robot with a big glowing eye in front. Almost reminds me of someone :3
