Some of those weird facts and my interpretations:

About a third of all Americans flush the toilet while they're still
sitting on it.
It's a good practice, for sooner the filth is flushed away the less foul smell for the next person waiting outside. I call it "drop n' flush" policy.

A Woman's heart beats faster than a man's.
Next time I get confused whether a person is male or female I might have to feel that person's heart with one palm and feel mine with the other. It sure sounds like a perfect recipe for getting a bitch slap from a tom boy.

Even if you cut off a cockroach's head, it can live for several weeks.
God forbid but if the insect doctor says my pet cockroach has a terminal cancer and has only one week to live, then I will  definitely go ahead and cut off it head so that it will live longer.

The world population of chickens is about equal to the number of people.
The smaller the bodily size of a species is, the larger is its population except for humans. Think of millions of microbes on a piece of filth and limited number of gigantic elephants in the wild.

Every time Beethoven sat down to write music, he poured ice water over
his head.
He was not the only one. Bizarre habits of other genuises include:
The poet Friedrich von Schiller used to keep rotten apples under the lid of his desk, open it, inhale deeply and compose.
Colette first picked fleas from her cat, then wrote.
Voltaire used his lover's naked back as a writing desk.
It's said that Edgar Allen Poe wrote with a cat on his shoulder.
T.S. Eliot preferred writing when he had a head cold.

Bird droppings are the chief export of Nauru, an island nation in the western Pacific.
They make incredibly nutrient-rich manure.

Mosquitoes have teeth.
However, it's the female mosquito that sucks (your blood). No wonder they say the female of the species is more deadlier than the male.


27% of U.S. male college students believe life is "a meaningless existential hell."
It's that 27% that had difficulty getting laid (even in college).

Aztec emperor Montezuma had nephew, Cuitlahac, whose name meant "plenty of excrement."
Most likely that chap was able to devise a secret fiber-rich dietary formula for himself.

Thomas Edison was afraid of the dark.
Duh! Why do you think he invented the light-bulb in the first place?
Here is another instance when the adage, necessity is the mother of all inventions, held true. Dayton, Ohio was such a boring place to be living in that the Wright Brothers had to invent the airplane to get the hell out of there.
