That butterflies taste with their feet.
One of the numerous vampire legends claims that stealing someone's shadow (by measuring it against a wall and driving a nail through its head) can turn the victim into a vampire. (You can't do anything similar or analagous to a vampire of course, since they don't have shadows!!)
Most babies are born with 250 bones. However, adults typically have only 206 bones in their bodies.
According to a book with the dubious distinction of being titled: "The Illustrated Book of Sexual Records.", the most maligned and vilified sexual practice in the world is - brace yourselves................ masturbation. Folks, including some doctors, have tried to tell hormone-filled teens for centuries that "self abuse" can cause impotence, hairy fingers, shrinking sexual organs, stunting of growth, sexual obsessions, every variety of mental illness imaginable, tabes dorsalis (whatever that is....), pulmonary consumption, dyspepsia, dimness of sight or blindness, vertigo, epilepsy, hypochondriasis, loss of memory, fatuity, hysteria, asthma, melancholia, mania, dementia, paralysis and death! In order to preserve at least SOME modicum of decency in this otherwise family-friendly feature, i shall cut this article short - but suffice it to say that the laundry-list of supposed dangers (and "officially recommended" remedies for!!) related to masturbation is to sexual scare topics and tactics, what terrorism is to "shrub-related" policies and politics: a grain or two of truth which should be taken with a few tons of salt.
