share your fun facts that normal people should never know
I'll start: don't quote me on this, but I've heard that you can use blood instead of eggs when you bake stuff
also you can make chloroform with hydrogen peroxide and vinegar

This isn’t really something one of my characters would need to know but…
It’s possible to rupture seven vital organs in a cat with a deep enough slash to the belly. Hard, but possible.

This one sounds disturbing asf (especially since i have a cat sleeping on my lap)
Still, entertaining enough to know XD

As for my random fact, if you die inside your house, your cat or rabbit will eat your corpse without hesitation. Dogs would wait a few days until hunger wins them over

A rabbit?!

@Kinarymo

A rabbit?!

yes, a rabbit. Not so cute and cuddly now huh :'))

Well they never were. But eating corpses is another level.

@Kinarymo

If you really stop and do some digging, you might realize rabbits are actually quite morbid, despite them being considered cute

@The-N-U-T-Cracker

So that's why there are two popular Vocaloid horror songs about murderous rabbits… Huh

pops in at the mention of rodents

Actually most rodents (excluding guinea pigs) eat their cagemates when they pass away.

Some breeds of hamster actually kill their cagemates so they can eat them. For example I saw a story of a little girl who had robot hamsters, one of their brains exploded (it fell I think) and the rodent fucking ate it, it was so gruesome but awesome. Idk I'm dark man.

But on a lighter note, guinea pigs, when a cagemate passes, most will lick the eyes shut or sit vigil until they are taken out.

Wow.

Yeah. I know an absurd amount about rodents looolllll

Did you know that most rodents are actually very clean animals? Just cus they eat their poops doesn't mean they are filthy.

Sometimes if water is cold enough it can numb you enough not to know you've been injured until the numbness wears off.

You need a force greater that 3000 Newtons to crack the cervical spine.

Titanium has a melting point of 1668 Celsius.

@The-N-U-T-Cracker

Dry ice inside a sealed coke bottle can and will explode if left long enough

@The-N-U-T-Cracker

Same with a mixture of pool chlorine and brake fluid, if you leave it inside a sealed container, it will explode. The main differences between these two bombs are the dry ice will most likely take hours to explode and will burst into a cloud of gas, not doing much damage, while the chlorine/brake fluid will explode into flames after about one minute.

When you come across a body, do not assume it is dead.

@dvisalln

Don't let up for at least a minute after they stop breathing

If you're doing CPR, think of the song "Another One Bites the Dust" by Queen. The rhythm of that song maches the essential beat you need to take on to possibly save their life.

Also, if you feel something crack, that's a good sign, keep going.

group

Actually, something cracking is not good. That means you're too high up, and you are doing more damage than necessary. (I just got done with CPR in gym)

Actually actually, the heart is located within the ribcage, and breaking the ribs out of the way is essential for the person to live.

We learned CPR in Health and they specifically said ribs breaking is good.

group

I learned CPR in Health too, and they said rib breaking is bad.

They wrong hon.

@dvisalln

breaking ribs during cpr is bad

@The-N-U-T-Cracker

Yeah, breaking ribs doesn't sound like a good thing…

group

Anywho:

When someone plays an overplayed song, it is NOT okay to punch them.

…is a sign that you are performing good, strong compressions.

But mostly the cracking is the sternum and not the ribs, that's where I was mistaken, sorry.

From what I learned breaking is bad but not the worst.
