Shitty facts about animals, from Trashpandas to Slowbears to Jackdaws. Cute pictures accompanied by shitty titles, like "TIL Zoos can only have one emperor penguin at a time; any more leads to a political coup d'état."

Rule #1: Only the shittiest facts allowed. If your post ends up being correct you are instantly banned. No exceptions!

Rule #2: No YouTube. Post an image or a gif. Because mods are tired of removing spam.

Rule #3: No douchebaggery. Mods will ban at will. Or even just for funsies. Consider this your final warning.

Rule #4: Only shitty users repost. You can title something literally anything you want (so long as it's not true) so you really have to be a lazy piece of shit to repost an existing shitty fact. It's not forbidden, but if you choose to repost, expect a public shaming for your shitty behavior, you shit head.

The Bay Cat is one of the funniest members of the cat family. When you find them during the day, they'll do a stand-up comedy act before they devour you. No one has ever survived to retell their jokes, but it has been assumed that they like self-deprecating humour and laugh at their own jokes.

When birds get eerily quiet during a solar eclipse, it's not because they are confused by the darkness. They are are confused by all those people suddenly coming outside, celebrating for a few minutes, and then going back inside.
