The male praying mantis cannot copulate while its head is attached to its body.
The female initiates sex by ripping the male's head off.
("Honey, I'm home. What the...?!")
An ostrich's eye is bigger than its brain.
(I know some people like that.)
haha
I like your jokes. I actually look for them. Keep it up.
Two points about this joke which was supposedly listing facts.
The female praying mantis only rips the head off of its mate when in captivity.
She does not do this in the wild. In the wild the male praying mantis actually
copulates with many females and lives to drink at the singles bar another night.
(Which may be the motive for head-ripping once the female is alone in private
with him.) I have had a couple girlfriends like that. My head is still growing
back from the last one. And no, of course I did not do anything to have my head
ripped. Geez, you girlfriends are sooooo paranoid!
It is biologically impossible for the eye to be bigger than the brain. The eye
is part of the brain. More accurately, the line should state 'the ostrich
eye is the largest part of its brain'. Have faith that the universe will unfold as it should  |
