You give me weird and random facts about minimal things and I give weird and random facts about other minimal things in exchange. To start:
In ancient Greece Lilies were thought to be the result of Hera's breast milk. Zeus waned hercules to drink Hera's milk but she pushed him away and the milk splat onto the ground, creating lilies. You're welcome

A similar thing happened when Heracles subdued Cerberus and brought him to his cousin, the King of Thebes. As Heracles brought the monster into the light of our world, the monster howled, and spat, and from his spit came the flower hemlock. Dante Alighieri references this in his epic poem, Divine Comedy as well, when Dante and Virgil enter the 8th Circle of Hell, or the City of Dis

Speaking of Greek Gods and myths, the food cereal is named after the Goddess of grains Ceres

That's cool! And speaking of cereal, it's the best way to get all of the healthy chemicals and elements one might need in the morning, and depending on the kind you eat, it can have the perfect nutrient intake as well, if eaten with milk, and here we are, back on the subject of milk, full circle!

nice

Wait a second, isn't Ceres her Roman name? Her Greek name is Demeter, isn't it!

Ya!

Yes, I was like, "Hold on?" I dunno! Either way!

Now you guys know the truth. I know a very minimal amount of Greek mythology. I'm sorry, but I'm afraid you'll have to keep quiet about this situation

Did you guys know that the 57 on Heinz ketchup bottles represents the number of varieties of pickles the company once had?

It's fine @Winter, you know a good amount more than most! Mistaking one person's name for another when they're the same person is easy to do!

The longest recorded flight of a chicken lasted 13 seconds.

Weed was used by Chinese emperors dating back to Emperor Shen-Nung in 2700 B.C.

YAAAAAS!

1. The American constitution was made of hemp paper, and all of your favorite of American Presidents (Excepting a certain one who ran a smear campaign against it, and thus shall not be named) either grew cannabis, or used it!
2. The name of weed, cannibis, in Latin, means "The dog twice" or "Double Dog" y'know!
3. The strain "Blue Dream" is widely believed to be the most balanced sativa/indica hybrid!
4. "OG Kush" means Ocean Grown, not Original Gangsta.
5. Weed was illegal largely thanks to a smear campaign in the 1950's this campaign was set because cannabis is a cheaper, more efficient source of lumber, paper, and even fabric, among other things, than wood is but it's legal here in Cali!!!
6. Morgan Freeman smokes weed, or did at one point!

Wow

My religion is Stoneratholicism.

Fact: you will not break your mother's back if you step on a crack.

XDXDXDXD

NOTHING CAME UP ON GOOGLE FOR STONERATHOLICISM WHAT IS THIS MADNESS

I will explain to you my son!

But literally it was a blank page. Not even the deep web knew.

Every Saturday, we all get together on the couch, roll a woods, or whatever, then we pray to our Allknowing, Almighty Gods, Snoop Dogg, Bob Marley, Willie Nelson, and the Majestic Consuls, Cheech and Chong, and then we take a nap!

That's because I made it up on the fly! Wow, it's an honor to beat the internet at making random things up!!!

That is… quite the lineup of gods.

Yes! They are quite amazing!
