Thread: Stella’s Useless Facts

    Stella’s Useless Facts

    My mind is full of completely irrelevant information that nobody wants/needs to know but it would be selfish to keep it to myself so I’ll share some of my random knowledge with you guys.

    I’ll start with this gem....

    Snakes have two penises.

    Why would you tell me that? Ewwwwwwww
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    Lizards do too apparently (Fern made me google to check accuracy of aforementioned fact...)

    Yes that is true, known as the hemipenis and is different in each species and acts like a lock and key mechanism to avoid cross species breeding and when they lock on to each other can be at it for hours!

    Ok next useless fact, Smokey Robinson’s chart topping single ‘Being With You’ hit the number one spot in June 1981.

    No idea why I retained that nugget of info but it’s locked in my vault of irrelevant crap.

    I knew that one Stella. I’ve got a similar useless fact, Paolo Rossi won the golden boot at the 1982 World Cup in Spain also scoring 6 goals and Italy went on to win. I shared the same birthday as him!

    I did not know about the snakes but when I told Ethan he said yeah I know so do lizards!!
