My name is Jimmy. Pottermore: NoxKnight50. I'm a jerk when I want to be, a friend when I have to be, and an adventure waiting to explode into the world. I want people along for the ride. I'm 22, I'm stupid, I'm still learning, and I have random thoughts. These are those thoughts.
Controversial anatomist Dr. Gunther von Hagens has taken a hacksaw to one of his own exhibitions, to get around German decency laws.
Officials in Augsburg had banned him from displaying one of his trademark BodyWorlds exhibits, where corpses are injected with a plastic to preserve them and skinned to show muscles and organs.
But it wasn’t the gore they objected to, or the fact the bodies were in a reverse cowgirl sexual position, but apparently the faces they were pulling.
As a result Von Hagens said he will cut the off the limbs and then put only the most intimate parts on display, no-one could have a problem with that, right?The bodies used in the reverse cowgirl goriest are said to be those of lung cancer patients who volunteered their bodies to Von Hagens before they died.

Caves.
Maybe it’s just how I learned it, but I know there are still some people who don’t know the difference between a stalactite and a stalagmite. You know, the pointy rocks that make the cave look like a giant toothy mouth that could eat you at any moment?
Here’s how I learned. Stalactites have a C, and therefore are on the ceiling.
Stalagmites have a G, and are on the freaking ground.
That’s how I learned it, and that fact has stuck with me since the second freaking grade. And there are still people my age who get confused. Here’s hoping this clarifies so I can stop correcting stupid people.
