It's high time for the roaches to pay us back for suffering their nuisance!

I think we mostly do it for others. If we lived on a deserted island, probably we wouldn't care much about bathing.

Whole sesame paste (also called sesame butter, but it's just 100% whole blended sesame seeds, without anything added, not even salt) has a lot of zinc, one could take a tablespoon a day of that instead

Even among ruins, there's better and worse :P Will keep in mind, thanks!

We're having a heat wave right now in Cyprus, and I can't help but think of all those dogs that people bring here from all over the world, that don't belong in this year-round-sunshine climate, like huskies.

My mom had a whiplash injury to her lower back when her car was hit by another car. Though the hit itself wasn't that great and the car was mostly fine, the whiplash she felt was intense.

Linus Pauling - one of only 4 people to have won the Nobel prize 2 times! - was the main person responsible for people believing, to this very day, that taking vitamin C will help you fight a cold !

I knew there was a shot for rabies, so I was curious as to how it's not cured. So apparently the shots stop the virus before it takes hold.

Not only does this stick to our brains literally, it does so metaphorically too, like a meme. Despite its rarity, it's so scary you never forget it.

I tried the fruitarian diet for maybe two weeks or a month, but I was also having flax seeds and chia seeds, and it got rather boring and unsustainable! Other than that, I noticed that I had to pee very

Math was the worst for me too. And now I kinda really like it! I also find it rather simple and easy. I believe it's probably the easiest subject in school! Perhaps the problem is it isn't taught right,

Oh that's easy, I would just calculate it :D I didn't say I knew, I just guessed, as I didn't have the math skills to use any other way, so I kinda used some rough intuition or common sense or whatever

Yeah that was my guess, cos I figured exponents would count for more than the bases, which in this case had only a third of a difference between them.

You can also slow down aging by living your life in a very fast-moving vehicle. At least according to Einstein :P

As you imply, I guess it depends on who's milk and when. If it's your mother's milk when you're 2, that's fine. But if it's cow's milk when you're 20, maybe you're in the majority of the world who stops

Is it true that perceptions of aging have grown more negative over time? Was old age regarded more positively in bygone eras? That was my question too as I was reading, and I largely agree with your

On the other side of this there's innovators who failed cos they were ahead of their time! Examples are all the search engines that came before Google.

It's interesting that the sexes tend to exaggerate differences that are already there. So, women are less hirsute than men, and therefore they shave themselves completely to exaggerate their lack of hair,

Lab-grown meat has been my hope, and often my reply to vegans, ever since the technology was still very nascent. Historically, humanity rarely achieves its moral goals by shaming and guilt-tripping people.

Darwin also discovered carnivorous plants? The guy's incredible!
