Fact for the Day

[hellison]

According to the very instructive and educational How Animals Have Sex" book, which I bought for thipe but now covet for myself, Male Weevils have a penis so... spikey and nasty that each mating significantly reduces the lifespan of the female.


Which probably explains why they prefer Canadians. And Wingnut.

ION you people have DESTROYED my mind. Was just having perfectly normal and unwrong conversation with cow-orkers about new star trek movie. Someone mentioned Christian Bale being it.
I TRIED to enquire if he was to play Young Kirk.
It came out 'So will he be Cock then?'.
*sobs*

Same as bed bugs, apparently! The wee sperms swim round the body til they get to the ovaries..*


JIZZ IN THE BRAIN is *not* a pleasant thought. So don't think it.

Now, who remember's Aldiss' Helliconia?

I was about to say 'How DO you know so much about the sex lives of insects?' Then I remembered who I was talking to...

*tries VERY HARD not to think about any of it*

Also, is that Stoaty in your icon? With his BEADY DEAD EYES?

It is him! I think Mrs Tard will cremate him soon, so this could be his last hurrah. :-(

Re: Bugsex, it was actually in a New Scientist I was reading when I met Thesme during her Great Edinburgh Adventure. Hence Rodette's 'stab me' tattoo...

Ah, it was obviously FATE then. Rather like the book, which i did not know involved weevils in anyway, never mind being dedicated to the Poor Lady Weevil!

I would say awww about stoaty, but alas, I'm with Mrs tard on this one, those things give me the creeps ;p
