    I know this is in funny stuff but...

    --Humans and dolphins are the only species that have sex for pleasure.
    Very unlikely - I would assume that most primates have sex for pleasure.
    And you state that a pig have a 30 minute orgasm.

    --Did you know that you are more likely to be killed by a champagne cork than by a poisonous spider?
    Again I find that very hard to belive.

    --Right-handed people live, on average, nine years longer than left-handed people do.
    Dont know where u found that, but thats just silly.

    I think you missed the point of funnies...


    Nevertheless, i did look up the points, quickly, just outa interest..

    Its incorrect: Dolphins and Pygmy Chimpanzee's (Bonobos) are the only species other than Humans to have "Sex for Pleasure" Source

    The 2nd point i can believe, as 99.9% of spiders couldnt kill you with their venom (including Tarantula's) they will either have no effect, a slight iritation or make you ill... Added to which they usually run when a human approaches.

    The 3rd point was probably based upon this:

    There was a controversial study done in 1980 by Halpern & Cohen that suggested left-handed people had an average life expectancy of 9 years less than right-handed people. Data was based on second-hand information: surveys from the next-of-kin of recently deceased persons asking about right/left handedness and age of death. They found left-handed average age of death was 66; right-handed average age was 75.
    I have no idea how correct that data is; however i would suggest that the word "Contraversial" means that it is not accepted universally...



    I suggest you get out more...

    Laugh

    Funny or not I just dident like you posting Urban legends as "facts".
    Some kid might get the wrong idear.

    And you better not trust the first link on the first page that google shows you.

    I could probably show you 10 links that says the earth is flat -that dosent make it so.

    And for the spiders: Spider bites have killed 15 in Texas since 1980, according to that state's agriculture department. Source
    Think they would have outlawed champagne corks by now...

    And I did think your post was funny, so relax.

    because if they were right handed they would live 9 years longer

    it’s an election with no Democrats, in one of the whitest states in the union, where rich candidates pay $35 for your votes. Or, as Republicans call it, their vision for the future.

    Did you find out many people had been killed by champagne corks in Texas too?

    Think of all the children that would try and shake the left paw of a polar bear too Cheese

    Texas is more concerned with fatalities due to pretzels
