humans have the largest penises in proportion to the rest of their body this is what happens when you click ranom website links when you're bored.
Wrong, haven't you been paying attention? the barnacle has the largest by proportion. it's got one that's over three times its body length.
Sorry my mistake I meant in mammals. I'll rectify it now.

Apparently Mountain Dew reduces sperm count, funny considering its the gamer's drink of choice.
Seeing how the "mountain dew gamer" is the loneliest virgin on the planet, somehow I don't think it matters.
That's what I thought was funny.

Well, if you go without food for an extended amount of time (or a strenuous activity like swimming the English channel) you start to digest your own fat cells. Once those have run out your body starts to digest it's muscle cells. After than it moves to all the internal organs like the heart. I would call that self-cannibalization. You probably meant that they will bight the side of their body and swallow it which is very odd and sounds like a rather inefficient system since I would assume you need to heal that chunk of your body that is missing.

Fun Fact: eating less than what you should can actually make you live longer. If you do this then your body will be incredibly efficient about it's energy output. Plus, this mean less oxidants in your body messing up your DNA which means a lessened chance for cancer.
