“average person eats 3 spiders a year” factoid actualy just statistical error. average person eats 0 spiders per year. Spiders Georg, who lives in cave & eats over 10,000 each day, is an outlier adn should not have been counted

Thanks, creator of spiders georg, and thanks unknown hero with the spidersge.org domain, for being indirectly responsible for the most statistically outlying post I’ve ever made.

Sometimes just sharing other people’s coolness around is the most popular thing you can do and that’s okay.

(Spiders Georg himself wasn’t even the first. https://cowbirdsinlove.com/957 had an earlier example of the same joke, but it’s lost to the ravages of time, leaving only a ghost in the ohnorobot machine. Which is part of why it’s important to still keep creating, forever. Even if everything has been done, yours might be the one that lives.)
