And now, some FUN FACTS!

- Herring anuses are specially formed to squeak at a higher frequency than other fish farts. They just fart along as they all swim through the ocean, so that if one herring gets lost, he follows the sounds of his farting school and doesn't follow some other fishes's farts instead because of their very specific-sounding herring farts. THE OCEAN IS FULL OF FARTS, YOU GUYS. FULL OF FARTS. FARTS. FULL OF 'EM.

- The Key Underwood Coon Dog Memorial Graveyard in Colbert County, Alabama, is dedicated for the burial of coon dogs

- The niece of the great Mongol leader, Kubla Khan, Princess Khutulun was described by Marco Polo as the greatest warrior in Khan’s army. She told her uncle she would marry any man who could wrestle her and win. If they lost they had to give her 100 horses....She died unmarried with 10,000 horses. THIS IS WHO I WANT TO BE!

- Despite its name, the red fox (Vulpes vulpes) species often produces individuals with abnormal colourings, including albinos and melanists as well as grey, platinum, amber, and the "samson" mutation (a woolly pelt which lacks guard hairs, with a brown and gray color that reminds me of agouti rats)

- Variants of the Cinderella story occur worldwide, not only throughout Europe but also in many countries of East Asia, South Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. The first known recorded "Cinderella" story was written by the ancient Greek historian Strabo in the 1st century BC, concerning a Greco-Egyptian girl named Rhodopis who lived who lived in the Greek colony of Naucratis in Ancient Egypt. It seems to have been based on a tale about a girl of the same name from Thrace that was written by Herodotus about five centuries earlier, but with magical elements added such as the god Horus, paving the way for the addition of the fairy godmother in the modern Western versions.

- Humans are deuterostomes, which means that when they develop in the womb the anus forms before any other opening. Which basically means at one point you were nothing but an asshole.

Just like the main character in...
