TIL: Today I Learned

Shrimp swim in many directions, including "Forwards" relative to their head and tail. They retreat from potential threats using a tail snap action which essentially propels them backwards, but that doesn't appear to be their main mode of movement.

 
Such a riveting shrimp debate.

I am hungry now.[DOUBLEPOST=1473849553,1473849379][/DOUBLEPOST]Today I learned the bagpipe was originally made from the whole skin of a dead sheep.

And it sounds like the sheep is still mourning the loss of its skin.
Who said that?! Which one of you slimy little communist twinkle toed cocksuckers said that?! You just signed your own death warrant!
 
Well, I can imagine Hickglans to suck the occasional clock. Sounds about as rational as he usually is. But if his toes were twinkies, they'd've long ago been eaten bij Pudding.



FYI, Pudding is HCGLNS's wife's cat, and HCGLNS is know to be one of the slightly odder ones around here. Nowhere near Yoshi's league, of course.

Slightly? That's like saying I like ferrets a little.

there’s no broth. The noodles have a violently hot coating that really means business! It’s so hot that people challenge each other to devour a bowl as fast as they can on YouTube
...
The flavor is like a ever so slightly sweet taste at the beginning and kind of fried taste and then it hits you – like a freight train. It’s hot and spicy – I mean really! I’m eating it right now and taking a break because my lips are on fire, as is my tongue. When I breathe out, it feels like I’m breathing out fire. This stuff is no joke
Sounds like it's right up my alley
