    Hahaha

    I did mean actually hitting my head, the lockers outside my old history room have a pretty big dent in thanks to me!

    I wouldn't have done the other though - I was far too innocent and naive at school.

    3. Chewing gum while peeling onions will keep you from crying.

    Announced to the wife I could chop onions without a tear. Popped a piece of gum in, commenced onion chopping and proceeded to cry like a baby. So number 3 is nonsense!

    Also I didn't think honey had been digested as the pollen is carried in pouches on legs then stored and possibly an enzyme on it
    Sort of. Honey isn't digested, it is nectar that is swallowed and then regurgitated. Pollen is carried on the leg pouches. Honey feeds grubs, pollen feeds adults.
