This is amazing! I randomly selected somewhere in the middle, and the driver had to jump out of the tram to extinguish a fire and quickly jump back in to carry on.
The trouble with having an open mind, of course, is that people will insist on coming along and trying to put things in it.

Apparently the female seminal receptacle is also very long. In fact, the increasing length of this receptacle is one of the explanations for the extreme sperm length.
Drosophila females have evolved to fertilize their eggs with particularly long sperm. Only large, healthy males are able to produce large quantities of gigantic sperm, and if a female reproduces with healthy males, her offspring will have genes that make them healthy, too.
Same. I have zero fashion sense and it shows. Doesn’t mean I can’t appreciate something nice. But always scared if I compliment someone, that it will do more harm than good.
Thanks for sharing, somehow reassuring to know I’m not alone.
Recently learned it’s actually “Eagles”, not “The Eagles”. (For example, take a look at the album covers. There are also documentaries in which they talk about it.)
But even the band themselves will use “the” when it grammatically makes sense. So confusing.
