The number of years it would take for all the atoms to "die" in this universe would amount to higher than the total amount of atoms in the universe. To give you an idea as to the size of the timescale, there are more atoms in a glass of water than there are glasses of water in all the oceans combined.

Most of us know that coal miners did/are dying from black lung disease. But did you know that actors could get very ill/die from the powder used to set their make-up? Even today many professional clowns use baby powder (in a sock) to set their make-up.

Not a funny, but a random fact nonetheless: two Hairless Chinese Crested dogs should not be bred together because the hairless gene variant is lethal when a dog has two copies of the mutation. Therefore the mating should be between a Hairless and the Powderpuff variety of the breed.
(There's also the true hairless and the Hairy hairless, just to confuse you - and IMHO no kinder, more loyal, funnier breed of dog ever existed. Not that I'm biased ... )

When you die, your cat will likely eat you, but not right away. this is because he/she still expects you to fill up his bowl. after a bit, when you do not fill up their bowl, they will likely nom on soft, exposed areas of your body (think neck, lips, nose). If you want more somewhat morbid facts like this, read "will my cat eat my eyeballs?" by caitlin something-or-other. it's a great read.

The increasing difficulty in the original "Space Invader" game wasn't an intentional feature at first. Destroying enemies just did free up processing power, which allowed the arcade machine to use more ressources on the movement for the remaining ones on the screen.

You burn more calories while sleeping if you are naked.

You typically only breathe out of one nostril at a time. The moment you are conscious of this, you will breathe out of both.

I was looking up if a person can be too oversized for cremation. I found out that individuals who are overweight can cause grease fires when being cremated. Apparently to a highly trained ?? Crematorist ?? (I'm unsure of the job title) This is not a problem as they know how to manage it however if not managed properly the fire can get out of hand.

Sorry I don't know how they manage the fire.
