Did you know that probably before dnosaures come to north Carolina, the Carnufex used to roam the place; the thing is a giant 9 foot crocodile that walks on two feet like humans?

I'm god, I know everything.

Did you know that the series "Doctor Quinn" is extremely good, despite sounding incredibly dull if you try to describe it? It's about a woman who wants to be a doctor in an old western town, and people don't want her to because they're all sexist. My wife convinced me to watched a couple of episodes, and I got hooked and watched all 5 seasons or however many there are! But it's impossible to make it sound interesting.
Feel free to send me a private message.

Did you know that Sigurd the Mighty, a ninth-century Norse earl of Orkney, was killed by an enemy he had beheaded several hours earlier. He’d tied the man’s head to his horse’s saddle, but while riding home one of its protruding teeth grazed his leg. He died from the infection.

Did you know this is now my new favourite dinosaur..

Carnufex (meaning "butcher") is an extinct genus of crocodylomorph suchian from the Late Triassic of North America. The genus was first described in 2015 by Zanno et al., who named the binomial Carnufex carolinensis, meaning "Carolina butcher"

It has the coolest of cool names. Meet the Crocodylomorph, Carolina Butcher.

That's extremely interesting - if it's true. Source?

Did you know that your teeth can regenerate naturally, but all the sugar we eat (and the bacteria that feed off it) destroy it a bit faster.
Ancient people's remains have been found with pearly whites...all thanks to a decent diet.
