If a woodchuck could chuck wood, it would chuck 700lbs of it per day. And if a head louse could give head . . .

Apparently the most painful place to be stung by a bee is inside the nostril - unless you have either a) a ballsack, or b) eyes.

You lose enough dead skin cells in a lifetime to fill a 16kg bag - but that's just what you lose! Wait till you see the skin I've KEPT!

Most toilets have an aggressive vibe, which makes sense - I'd be aggressive too if people kept shitting in my mouth.

Dolphins shed the top layer of their skin every two hours. Dude. Head & Shoulders cures 99.9% of dandruff.

Joseph Goebbels, the Nazi Minister for Propaganda, was the same height as Lindsay Lohan. However, she auditioned better for Mean Girls (which was nearly a VERY different movie).

At my gym, I have not one, but TWO trainers. Much better for my feet.

A newborn giant panda weighs the same as a cup of tea, but is much harder to dip a biscuit in.

Camel urine is as thick as syrup, but only half as good on ice cream. OR SO I'VE HEARD.

Sheep in mazes tend to turn left. Sheep in corns tend to have sore feet.

Charlie Chaplin had sex with 2,000 women, which is crazy. I reckon I could manage two at once, max.

'Cheiloscopy' is the study of lip-prints, and can be used to solve crimes. Now, when my girlfriend burgles a house, she doesn't kiss or sit on ANYTHING.

The word 'fizzle' used to mean, 'fart without making a noise.' Honestly, I heard that, and I was absolutely fizzling.

Penicillin was originally called 'Mould Juice.' Sales, admittedly, were poor.

Bees can fly higher than Mt Everest, which can't fly at all.

Cows only have bottom teeth, so who knows what their mouths are for.

A female butterfly has a second stomach attached to her vagina. Nice.

My trainer is as personal as it gets... really targeted with his insults and hurting my feelings.
