Guinea pigs are herd animals and therefore become severely depressed when alone. Switzerland considered only owning one illegal to practice social rights for animals.

It is called an interrobang and was invented during the 1960s. This combination of punctuation made it easy for advertisements to express emotional questions. The interrobang originally looked like both marks were overlapped (‽). Icequeen 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

A retired British admiral of the Royal Navy one day became excited due to headlines regarding the mobilizing forces of Britain. Excited to share this news with a college, the admiral quickly wrote a small acronym for ‘Oh My God!’ in his letter. Little did he know that he had just invented one of the most popular acronyms of today’s society. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

This musical instrument is also known as the “people’s instrument” due to its convenient size suitable for taking to marches. Students from all schools in the country are required to learn them. This explains why teachers need to pass an accordion exam before they get their teaching licenses during the 1990s. ALanHim 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

I repeat NEVER chase you. Aggressive ones like the Mohave Rattlesnake, is a venomous pit viper species found in the deserts of the southwestern and they will strike quickly and aggressively but it will never chase you. Just don't get close to step on it and you are fine. Fact: Yesterday I sat down about to rinse my body off and I got distracted by a large pretty lady bug. I then reach around to keep the lady bug out of harms before I ran the water and I hear a little rattle... just a short soft rattle. I get up asking myself, "did I just hear a rattlesnake". I peak around the makeshift wall by tank and I realize I was sitting next to a Diamondback with my back next to it in a 2 foot patch of shade next to my seat. When I reached around to put the bug down it gave me a little warning. So I get my trashcan and scoop it up and it doesn't even seem to care. I planned to take it up the road a good mile but decided to let it go where I found it, then I moved in under a tree so I can take a shower. It only rattle once more when bring out of the can and then it moved away on it's own. They stand their ground when threatened and this only only wanted some shade. Opinion: I may be an idiot for not moving the snake far away or killing it but then I can't have any fun looking for it every time I go outside like I'm suppose to any this time of year anyway. Dog has no interest in them. I've had too many close calls I need to stay on alert no matter what so leaving this one around will be a cool test. You can't hardly see him but he is by that wall or roofing material in the shade. That's were my dog goes but only when I tell her.. so I'll always check first. I was sitting on the step to the right, not that center one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumping the shark like in the TV show Happy Days after Fonzie jumped the shark means you ran out of material and you decided to pull stories out ones ass.. or a sharks ass.
