that the Earth is NOT round? No no, it's not square either (that was just a stupid assumption by our forefathers)...
It's actually pear-shaped!

So did you know hammers are for smashing especially magical ones embued with the power of thunder and lightining?
I did not, you learn something new every day.
Did you know that disagreeing with almighty gods is not only frowned upon but is a futile activity leading only to you getting smashed with all manner of mythical weapons.
Will your dad do a guest talk on mythology at my university?

Then how come it doesnt rot, overnight in some kind of turbo rotting. Apples - rot over time, pears rot instantly within about 30 seconds. going from too hard to complete mush instantaneously.

Actually I did and the proper term is acronym. An anagram is when you mix the letters to make a different word
Edit: I think it's Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation

I knew it was expanding all the time but I didn't realise it was by so much so quickly.

Did you know that the mass of a black hole is equal to that of the star that it was created from, just compressed into a space 1km in size? that's why black holes are so dense.
did you also know...
The sun is a mass of incandescent gas
A gigantic nuclear furnace
where hydrogen is built into helium
at a temperature of millions of degrees
Yo ho it's hot
The Sun is not
a place where we could live
but here on earth there'd be no life without the light it gives
We need it's light
We need it's heat
We need it's energy
Without the sun
Without a doubt
There'd be no you and me
The sun is a mass of incandescent gas
A gigantic nuclear furnace
where hydrogen is built into helium
at a temperature of millions of degrees
The sun is hot
It is so hot that everything on it is a gas
Iron
Copper
Aluminum
and many others
The sun is large
If the sun were hollow a million earths could fit inside
and yet the sun is only a middle-sized star
The sun is far away
About 93 million miles away!
and that's why it looks so small
And even when it's out of sight
the sun shines night and day
The sun gives heat
The sun gives light
The sunlight that we see
The sunlight comes from our own sun's atomic energy
Scientists have found that the sun is a huge atom-smashing machine
The heat and light of the sun come from the nuclear reactions of
Hydrogen
Carbon
Nitrogen
and Helium
The sun is a mass of incandescent gas
A gigantic nuclear furnace
where hydrogen is built into helium
at a temperature of millions of degrees

Black holes are still mysterious, namely because they can't be seen. Where'd you hear that it's 1km in diameter? What's cool though is that it's gravity is so strong and it wouldn't pull your entire body at once. Instead you would be stretched into a fine spaghetti

Did yall know that an apple, a potato and an onion all have the same taste?
The differences in flavor are illusioned by their smell .

Onions are spicy, last I checked apples are sweet and potatoes are starchy(unless you cook 'em).

No seriously, they're the same.

Did you know that a square piece of dry paper can't be folded in half more than 7 times? Try it. I haven't

Onions are spicy and apples are sweet. How is that the same taste?
