Well, many of my topics have been deleted, whether it's becasue the name was too long, or too many bold lettering or exclamation marks, so ive decided to make a new topic that will hopfully not be deleted. and its a game.

just post some interesting facts, then the next person rates it out of 5.

Example:
iFish:fish can fly! (thats not true, obviously)
Nqkoi1(hope you dont mind that i used your name): Not adequate enough! 2/5 for the ineresting part.

so i'll go first, and i'll post a couple, jsut cuz i started this thing

-crockroachs have teeth in their stomach
-a crockroach was taken to space and given birth there, it has greater speed and strength than a normal crockroach and scientists still don't know why (i hope it doesnt reproduce)

now the next person rates these REAL facts, and they find their own REAL facts that are interesting, and the next person rates it etc.

Dog's feet smell like Fritos. If you have a dog, go up and smell his/her feet. They smell like really gross Fritos.

Sixteen percent of Americans have tattoos. The word "tattoo" comes from the Tahitian word "tattau," which means "to mark."

In Paris, it is illegal to stare at the Mayor.

Mississippi didn't outlaw the 13th amendment (One abolishing slavery) until 1995. (They rejected it December 6, 1865 and just forgot about it lol)

They say Ohio is the 17th state but it's really the 47th. the bill accepting it into the nation was forgotten (like the above users ^^^^^^) until 1985, or was 1958? something like that.

Connecticut and rhode island never ratified the 18th amendment(Prohibition of alcohol)

Over 14 insects go into your mouth a year.

No, they don't. It's not a fact, as far as I know it is a rumour started to see how gullible people are.

Also locking this since we already have a fact-thread going that is far newer than this.
