Maybe to settle everyone down we need a good thread about absolutely nothing.  So how about some useless trivia.  I'll start:

The Australian White-Throated Snapping Turtle can breathe through its anus.

So you are saying they are politicians?......

That's only true about politicians because they have no other choice. All politicians have their head up their ***.  They function exactly like a direct impingement M16. They **** where they eat.

They used to diagnose diabetes in the Middle Ages which they called the honey disease by the sweet taste of the urine.

I know this is true, but always wondered why when it's easy to smell the candy like smell of sugar in urine, or the smell of ketones in urine when a person is metabolizing fat instead of sugar.

It could be like wine tasting.  You inhale the bouquet then you sample the taste.  I’m sure hoping it was just a small sample.  Maybe taste was considered confirmation to the smell.

Cringe-worthy bit of trivia:

The above mentioned brother of the founder of Kellogg cereal felt like child masturbation was a real problem.  To the point he endorsed a procedure where a piece of silver wire was sewn into the penis in a way that made getting an erection impossible if the child could not be made to stop via more conventional means.

Graham crackers were made for that too.
