The Fun Fact Thread

I believe it was cheese whiz that was like that.

That one dude from Boondocks also played as the Grandpa from the Friday movies and usually does a homage to his Friday counterpart.

Still happens, alas. I'm not sure if it's still burning, but there are places in India (all very, very, very rural areas) where a bride is expected to commit suicide if her husband dies. If she doesn't she is still treated as if she is dead (no one acknowledges she exists in any way.) so the end result is often the same.

People have said, also, that the catbus is transport for the dead, a ferry to the other world, ie, in the end, they're in the afterlife.

Pfft, he looks more like a bat than aquaman looks like water.

The bat is cute. :3
Batman is not. :<

Yes, bats are some of the most wrongly percieved creatures ever. They're actually really cute.

True, but not nearly as much as Die Fledermaus.

I'd add bugs. Look at the cuteness of a drosophila. :33
Its red eyes are adorable!

That's extremely creepy, but cute in its own right.

Anywho, 75% of the human population is 3/4ths of the human population.

Think about it.

Oh wait, is that a lie?
That ruined my world.
