The myelinated nerve fibers in my right eye bear a surprisingly strong resemblance, from a certain angle, to one of the publicly available pictures of quasar PG 1012+008, taken by the Hubble.

I've also apparently given out around 2615 +1's so far, and am pretty sure this one of the larger reasons for the karma inflation.

Case in point: Approx. 22.22% of Squigs' karma originates from me, lol

The Anglo-Saxon word “hlafdiga” which eventually became lady means “bread maker”.

In Old English the word starve just meant “to die”. So you could starve from overeating or from drinking too much.

There are more non-human cells in your body than human cells.
