Ear wax is useful

Ear wax or cerumen, is naturally produced by our body and helps to clean, protect, and lubricate our ears.

But if this honey-look-like-but-not-taste-like substance builds up excessively, it may block your ear drum, and then cause irritation of the ear canal and lead to a rupture of the eardrum. Sad, huh?

Cerumen is apparently constituted of 40% of fat and is a sticky and shiny substance (reminds me something else...)

BON APPETIT.

I have some "facts on farts"©

Why do farts stink?

First of all, let me introduce the topic with a quotation of my own: "The quieter and warmer, the smellier it is"©.

The odor of fart comes from a mixture of hydrogen sulfide gas and mercaptans! Nitrogen rich compounds do also add some nice smell to your fart.

In a nutshell, the more sulfur rich is your diet, the more your farts will stink. So if you want to produce a Hiroshima-like fart, have a healthy dinner composed of eggs, cauliflower, raclette cheese and salami!

And I have found for you a delicious video of DJ fart (Don't forget to add it to your Christmas playlist):

Burping is good

A burp is medically known as an "eructation".

It is a universal body language that consists of releasing small (or not) amounts of air that is trapped on its way down with food burger and drink coke.

Why knowing how to burp on command is good?

1- It feels good when you are bloated! (farting is a good way too!).

2- To impress your friends and show who is the ALPHA in da room.

3- And finally, in some cultures, it is considered a compliment if you burp after a meal!

That is why you should always bring beer to your husbands after a good meal you had cooked for 2 hours!

Ladiz N Genz, here is a funny video of a cute burping gal:

And here: Learn how to burp in 5 steps:

1- Stand up

2- Drink a fizzy soda

3- Close your mouth and nostrils so no air can come in (OK if you are blond, please don't forget to breathe afterwards)

4- Ask someone to GENTLY pat you on the center of your back

5- Close your mouth as you burp and let the gas come out from your nose.

ET VOILA!

France is fantastic

- We don't eat Frog leg soup everyday in France

- Yearly, it rains more in Paris than in London (Check it on World Climate website)

- It is not the daisy, but the iris that is the national flower of France

- Wine can only be labeled "Champagne" if it is made in the Champagne region of France (North East)

- The rumor has it... that the "coupe" (the oblong glass used for drinking champagne) of champagne was modeled in the shape of Marie Antoinette's breast! (Too bad Boob jobs did not exist at that time...)

- Mont blanc is not only a delicious creamy dessert, it is also the highest mountain in the Alps and Western Europe

- French like to make fun of people, especially the Belgians.

- French was the official language of England for over 300 years!

- French loves to complain and believe that Canadians don't speak French.

Au revoir.

F*cking F*ck

Did you know that the F word was a difficult word to trace until recently? It looks like the origin of the F*** was found first in a 15th century poem written in bastard Latin (yeah you heard me right!);

"Non sunt in celi

quia fuccant uuiuys of heli"

Apparently meaning (sorry I can't confirm it): "They (the monks) are not in heaven because they fuck the wives of (the town of) Ely."

Another early example of F***ing comes from Scottish, (of Scandinavian origin) from a word resembling to a Norwegian dialect "fukka" meaning "copulate," or Swedish dialect "fock" meaning "penis."

Anyways... For those who wants more details about F*ck: you can look on the Online Etymology Dictionary: here.

At least it does not directly come from French (My beautiful mother tongue is not based on a bastard latin... No!)
