This is a game I used to play on other forums... Though, granted, it doesn't sound fun to begin with, but certain answers can be interesting. It's somewhat of a learning experience, I guess.
The premise is simple; you post a single fact. It can be about anything within reason, as random as you like, but the only condition is that it must be correct. The title is misleading; you can post more than once in one day (without double posting and the like) but as long as one person learns one new thing a day, I'll be satisfied.
So, let's begin.
---
Solanine is a deadly poison, typically found in the berries of the nightshade bush- you only need a small amount to have an effect in the adult body, about 25mg causes nausea and 400mg can kill you.
It's also found in potatoes and tomatoes. Yes, those potatoes and tomatoes.

stomach acid is constantly eroding your stomach wall? Your stomach has to constantly regrow so it doesn't spill out. Stomach lining is one of the fastest growing tissues on the body, the fastest being the eye. Your stomach acid is actually very potent. Hypothetically speaking, if you threw up on some steel girders and if it never solidified or evaporated it would eventually melt through.

you can rupture a blood vessel
in your head or neck and die.

they can pop out

And if you walk out of the door you could get hit by a bus. These facts are fairly meaningless.
Here's a fact: 39% of statistics are made up on the spot!

That's funny Allie.
There are traces of Cyanide inside of apple seeds. Cyanide was used in gas chambers by Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin. It is estimated that 85 grams of dry seeds is lethal. This is a minimal amount, however, a person may need to take 2 or three times this amount. This is because not all seeds germinate the same. |

There are no land snakes in New Zealand. It’s part of New Zealand’s bio security to keep all snakes out and if a person is aware of a snake, by law it must be reported.

I totally fucking tried this and it worked. I have a very very very sensitive gag reflex, like - just brushing my teeth will do it - but I like - practically fisted my mouth and nothing! FUcking genius! Please explain. I can't wait to show Adder! I mean tell him.
My facts:
Every year about 98% of the atoms in your body are replaced.
The word "nerd" was first coined by Dr. Seuss in "If I Ran the Zoo."
