Carrots are poisonous if you eat them from the fat end first.

There is a definite measurable link between the number of re-runs airing on television and the amount of violent crimes taking place at the same time.

By replacing the skull of a corpse with a head of cabbage, you can temporarily reanimate the body for up to 15 minutes.  Unfortunately, this isn’t particularly useful because cabbage offers the body no cognitive ability… so it just twitches a lot.

You can temporarily transform a common watermelon into a rocket engine by injecting it with a mixture of cheetah blood and jalapeño juice.

Grape vines are the sentient reconnaissance plants of the natural world.  The fruit of the grape plants are actually eyeballs.  They see everything and record the information in the grape vine’s brain roots.

Modern toilet paper is actually a lot less soft than earlier versions.  Economic fluctuations and an increasingly calloused society (both physically and psychologically) have necessitated thinner, more abrasive toilet paper.  Scientists predict that by the year 2015, most Americans will be wiping with sandpaper.

Nearly all mice can run a supersonic speeds.  The squeaking that we normally associate with mice is not a noise they make for communication.  Instead, it’s actually a small sonic boom that’s proportional to their body size.

I’m quite pleased to announce that this movie did, in fact, not suck.  Acting was strong across the board.  The suit is freaking awesome.  I can forgive some back-story modifications and the fact that his robots and home AI could probably pass the Turing test.  And you can’t imagine how many times throughout this movie, I was either thinking (or saying aloud), “I want that.”

See this movie.  You won’t be disappointed.

It’s a common misconception that the abbreviation “IR”, when used in reference to remote controls, is short for infrared.  This simply is not the case.  In the case of television and media player remotes, the control signals are not sent by infrared, but instead are sent via an ultra-high frequency audio signal that is outside of the range of human hearing.  In these instances, the IR stands for “Internal Rupture”… because this is eventually what happens to your eardrum of you use these remotes too often or for too long.

In a survival situation, chunks of asphalt can be eaten for sustenance.  Surprisingly, the tar used to bind roads is fairly high in protein and vitamin C.
