This should be higher

Our whole attict is a bat sanctuary. They fly around the house at night, catching mosquitoes and we love the little buggers. Sometime they crash in the grass and I use welding gloves to gently put them back. When I grew up a tv tower was built nearby, the poor bats got disorientated and every morning I found dozens in tve grass

Aye-oo

Or having to make a phone call...

Ah... the pure bliss of having a simple mind 😅

Ah just look at him 🥰

Now if it were on a Perch.. Tastes like Chicken... Chicken of the sea.

Now give it an angry cousin who wants to attack everything

I read this as Seal the musician breaking into a NZ home

That entire post felt like an acid trip

Remember, if it bites you and you die, its venomous. If you bite it and you die, its poisonous. If it bites itself and you die, its voodoo. If you both bite each other and neither of you die, its kinky.

Sounds like something my dad would say

Look humanity is kinda stupid, always has been always will be

Don't give them any ideas

There is no point in having these. Unnecessary and messy... time to phase these out... I'm staying inside with all my doors shut tight... and a blow torch in case my chair turns into a spider.

What were they *really* trying to do? That's scary!

being a Brit myself and it not of any real use to me I really like this

Thanks teacher!

‘One more trespasser and my wind chime will be complete’

When you put it like that, it makes you wonder what on earth they were doing? Also, what was going through the mind of the first person to milk a cow? I suppose we should just be thankful that they didn't do it to a bull first.

I love it when a 4 year old is so much more intelligent than a grown person.

Me, a Japanese speaker who has heard a love song that mentioned being “only 10cm apart”: sounds like a you problem

As a 🇩🇪, I was raised »metric« but the 804.672 km appeared to be quite misleading...I once learned to use a comma for this and a dot for not loosing track when navigating through 6+ digits...1000000...hm...1.000.000...okay......I read it as 804672 km...804,672 km and 804.672 km is definitely not the same...

I'm 58 years old and I'm in the U.S. I'm just too freaking old to learn the metric system. I don't care how much better and easier it is. My brain is tired and it refuses to learn a whole new way of measuring! 😊

LOL I love it!

“Customary” sounds so much nicer than “Imperial” or, let’s face it “American and Liberian”.

The metric system is originally French, yet one of the most romantic and aesthetic languages on earth. Maybe we should translate all those songs into French (or another Romance language)?

"Half a league, half a league, half a league onward .." Screw your newfangled soulless "miles"

Certainly wasn’t common sense.

It isn't a 'problem', it's an incentive to write new songs for the metric age. Think positive!

Newsflash: We use the metric system in science and medicine. Can we get over this stupid myth now

Was listening to 22,86 cm nails reading this.

Here's an old, old commercial: "I'd walk 1.609 kilometers for a Camel."

Metric system has its ups and down

Yeah, but the metric system doesn’t take 5,280 units of one stupid measurement, to equal another stupid measurement !!!

Of course Americans don't even spell "aesthetic" correctly...

BIG FLOOFY BEEEEEAAAANNNSSS

Do you mind? I'm trying to do my job here.

I too would like to hear our ancestors' floppy wisdom

In all seriousness, the regenerating teeth would be awesome but wouldn't be feasible, because permanent, non-replacing teeth were actually one of the great innovations in the evolution of mammals. If your teeth are always falling out and growing back, you never run out, but you also can't develop feeding strategies that rely on your teeth meeting up in a certain way, a.k.a chewing. Permanent teeth allowed the first mammals to start specializing teeth to do different jobs; if their teeth were all in different stages of development, it wouldn't work, because once you get beyond simple plant-tearing pegs or sharp points, your teeth have to make contact with each other the same way all the time to be useable. ('The Rise And Reign Of The Mammals' is a fascinating book if you have any interest in evolutionary history.) Edit: book title

No wonder everyone's trying to BOIL it

Unlike most Internet trolls, most scientists are open to new ideas and possibilities
