"The tapir has the largest penis in relation to it's body size than any other animal."

Are you sure that's a fact?

I'm pretty certain the animal with the largest penis in relation to it's body size wouldn't be a mammal. In fact, I don't think it would even be a vertebrate but I'll have to Google it to find out.

The problem with these 'Fact' threads,is that they are always a regurgitation of the same, often apocryphal, 'facts' from previous 'Fact'threads.

I'm pretty certain the animal with the largest penis in relation to it's body size wouldn't be a mammal. In fact, I don't think it would even be a vertebrate but I'll have to Google it to find out.

Apparently it's a barnacle."

"The tapir has the largest penis in relation to it's body size than any other animal."

Not correct the barnacle has the longest relative to it's body size extending up to eight times it's body length - the tapir may have the largest for a mammal

On bananas. That banana flavouring you can buy that tastes artificial and not like a banana you can buy from the shops? That's actually what bananas used to taste like. That variety became extinct though.

The expression "one for the road" possibly comes from the days of hanging- on the way to the gallows the wagon carrying the condemned would stop at a pub so they could have one last drink. They would then get "back in the wagon" and be taken to the gallows.

Hanging was a slow process so sometimes individuals paid by a criminal's family would pull down on them during their hanging, and thereby minimise their suffering- hence the term "hangers on"

Afterwards the executioner could make some extra money by cutting up the noose and selling it as a grisly souvenir, thereby making "money for old rope"

Helps if you know Morse (sound not light).

That would be the obvious method to communicate by farting.

Punctuation etc. Not just the alphabet.

If you go back in time by each of these measurements

It gives you a sense of the scale of these numbers

1 million seconds = approx 17th Dec 2025

1 billion seconds = approx Mar. 1993

1 trillion seconds = approx 29,664 BC. Humans painting in caves.

Next time you hear National Debt is in Trillions as opposed to Billions it’s quite a lot of debt.

Or if you put 1 trillion 50p coins side by side together in a line it would measure 27.3 Billion kilometers. Outsr space!! (The Sun is only 150m kms away!!) 🤯
