You can ship bees in the mail!!! I was waiting in line at the post office, and the clerk came back with a package, and the customer says, “No, these aren’t my bees. Is there another one back there?” And I thought, “Holy s**t. Not only can you ship bees but enough people do this that it could result in a bee mix-up. What in the actual eff.” I got on the phone and told everyone I could think of.

The actual things that happen when you declaw a cat. It’s like amputating fingers. They often get early arthritis and back problems because it changes the way they walk completely. It’s insanely barbaric and any vet who participates in the practice knowing the results is immoral and evil.

A million seconds is eleven days. A billion seconds is around thirty years.

If there’s some sort of horrific injury at an accident scene, like a limb sliced off or a decapitation, emergency workers who are first on the scene will warn the other workers on their way so they can mentally prepare for it. So if you’re reporting an accident, be explicit in describing injuries so your people can prepare.

When putting your fitted sheet on your bed go opposite corner to opposite corner. Like you're making an x. All my life I’ve struggled with the fitted sheet coming off the mattress and my bed sheets becoming a mess until a few weeks ago when I read a comment on Reddit. It’s changed my sleep and comfort in my bed.

i don't know why this blows my mind. but if you have a problem with working out a percentage, flip the numbers and see if it makes more sense. 5% of 200 is the same as 200% of 5, 80% of 50 is the same as 50% of 80. Try it. It's awesome!

A hot spoon on a bug bite destroys the protein that makes it itchy and subsequently the itching stops!

I forget the exact percentage, but a ridiculous number of those diagnosed with ADHD as adults are diagnosed after their child receives a diagnosis first.

I have aphantasia, didn't figure it out until I was in my 30s. I thought when people said like imagine or picture something it was a figure of speech. Had no idea everyone has brain pictures and a very small percentage of people have no visual imagination or what's called aphantasia.

Sudden hearing loss. It happens overnight in one ear, can happen at any age and they don’t know the cause. But if they treat it in 48 hours you have a good chance of it returning- the longer you wait the less likely you’ll recover anything.

Anyone old enough to remember when old dog s**t will turn white? It doesn't happen anymore because they made a change to the dog food.

Buffalo sauce is just hot sauce with butter.

Robins see their reflection in your glasses and go into attack mode.

Only one in ten family fortunes survive to be passed to a third generation.

Not everyone has internal monologue

You have to get revaccinated for whooping cough as an adult. I didn’t know this until I caught whooping cough in my late 30s. It was honestly one of the worst things I’ve ever been through. I slept outside in a tent as I was keeping everyone awake. I would cough until I either vomited or passed out, and this went on for weeks. I broke a rib and split intercostal muscles. You’re supposed to have boosters every 8 - 10 years as an adult, and it really made me understand how babies and small children can and do die from the infection. It starts out very much like a simple cold, slightly sore throat and runny nose. It then progressively gets worse with a cough and tightness in the chest. Now, every time I get a slight cold, I produce a horrible cough that sounds like a braying donkey, even when I feel fine. I wish I knew about needed to get a booster vaccine, now I tell everyone!
