It is possible to become addicted to cheese because the milk casein is highly concentrated in cheese, and releases opiates. Cows also naturally add small amounts of morphine to each cup of milk produced because it helps calm the calf while it is feeding and helps to develop a bond between the mother and calf.

tl;dr Cows drug their young and cheese contains addictive substances.

"In many ways, the work of a critic is easy. We risk very little, yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face, is that in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so. But there are times when a critic truly risks something, and that is in the discovery and defense of the new. The world is often unkind to new talent, new creations. The new needs friends. Last night, I experienced something new: an extraordinary meal from a singularly unexpected source. To say that both the meal and its maker have challenged my preconceptions about fine cooking is a gross understatement. They have rocked me to my core. In the past, I have made no secret of my disdain for Chef Gusteau's famous motto, "Anyone can cook." But I realize, only now do I truly understand what he meant. Not everyone can become a great artist; but a great artist can come from anywhere."

-Anton Ego/Peter O'Toole (1932-2013)

All male pheromones are not equally attractive, and some of the myths stem from an understandable confusion over their names. The male pheromone androstenone is not the same as androstenol. Androstenol is the scent produced by fresh male sweat, and is attractive to females. Androstenone is produced by male sweat after exposure to oxygen—i.e. when less fresh—and is perceived as highly unpleasant by females.

RANDOM FACT:

Cats and dogs cannot see screens. They hear the sound, but all they see is white where the screen is!
(i.e.: computer, TV, etc.).
Obviously, all hopes of watching movies with my kitty were dashed.

Not true. There is actually quite a lively app market for games for your pets. Check you tube for videos of cats trying to swat mice that appear on an iPad screen.

Really?

Oh, then sorry for spamming this thread... XD
Hmm, I will have to alert my friend who told me about it....

Thank you for telling me!
Here are other weird facts to make up for my misleading other:

1. One of the shortest wars ever lasted was 38 minutes.
2. The earth spins so fast that someone standing at the equator is traveling at about 1000 mph.
3. An average Major League baseball is only used for 6 pitches.
4. In Italy, you can buy fresh pizza from a vending machine.
5. (To match my other cat-themed fact): A 15 year old cat has probably spent 10 years sleeping.

napoleon wasn't short

His autopsy showed that he was five feet two inches. For a lot of people, that is short. Considering that he was also in a world of battles, the men fighting there would have probably been taller than him as well, which increases his shortness to all.

I know a few simple facts, such as:
1)oranges aren't actually orange, they are only that colour when you spray it with ethylene gas, they are green even when ripe! Same with mangoes, lemons, tangerines and grape fruits!
2) octopus have two legs and have six arms, since they only use the same two to propel themselves forward.
3) the hardest know substance isn't diamond anymore, it's the hyper diamond or the aggregated diamond
For more facts to prove your teachers wrong please PM me, I'll be happy to spread my knowledge.
More fact's 4 you: bats aren't blind, napoleon wasn't short, Vikings didn't wear horned helmets, banknotes aren't made of paper, testosterone doesn't make you aggressive,cheese doesn't give you nightmares, and there is no such thing as a fish. (ALL THESE ARE VERY MUCH TRUE!!! I get these facts from the book of general ignorance seris)

That book was probably the book of general ignorance for them. Most of those facts are horribly untrue, and science with observable evidence, as Hazel and Kai-V have posted, has actually shown that said facts are true. Where's the proof for all of these claims?

The wikipedia article for Bonaparte actually mentions his height:

The British Tory press sometimes depicted Napoleon as much smaller than average height, and this image persists. Confusion about his height also results from the difference between the French pouce and British inch—2.71 and 2.54 cm respectively; he was about 1.7 metres (5 ft 7 in) tall, average height for the period.

Some manner of Octopus.

The French article on Napoléon Bonaparte has a completely different number though ...
http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Napol%C3%A9...ite_ref-29

If you'll read what I quoted in my above post, it probably explains it...

in fact, it does. Pouces are different than inches, so "foot" height is completely different.

Killing a cow in India makes matters much worse. It generally leads to rise in communal feelings. Such things easily become a big story in a matter of days and the person himself is compelled to suicide. IDK about china but it comes under animal violence in india judicially and it does not lead to death. Killing a person however generally leads to a death sentence.

Not really.

I'm not sure anyone would or should question the fact that striking something as hard and dense as the human skull would cause a break. Boxer's Fracture is a very well-known thing...

I know some things like A hematoma is a blood clot located in a part of the body that was hit by a blunt object. I also know about how a Cyst can be removed within the persons body AND i know that cherry wood pops in a fire place

A hematoma is not necessarily clotted blood, just blood(more often, in fact, fluid) that has pooled outside of blood vessels, and nowhere in the universe is a blunt object a specification of it. I'm not sure what your second sentence was intended to mean - humans can get cysts on internal organs, and they can be removed, yes.

Many types of wood pop in a fireplace. Any time there is enough space in the grooves/fibers of the wood for pressure to build.

Actually a bit of both leaning towards the 2003 anime where he appeared in a small hand full of episodes. The thing is before Osama tezuka became a manga artist he was in fact a doctor this is where most of his medical knowledge stemmed from. Oh also there were easter eggs in the show/manga such as Astro boy, phoenix, kimba, etc. heck Sharaku another character from another piece of work of his was somewhat of a main character in the anime. And i mean the Anime anime not the OVA from like the 90s/80s
