Exactly. I hear so many "fails" on school books from across the world. I think a lot of the time school books are not getting reviewed enough before being published, and the author will see if his/her prank fails. Sometimes, however, there is intentional propaganda being peddled.

That image will stick in the mind of every school boy (and possibly girl) who sees it. That's a win for the textbook.

You know there's a Canadian sports exec named Dick Pound?

Mr and Mrs Pound had a baby, looked at it, and said "were going to name him Richard, and he will be known as Dick. With a hard D".

Really makes you wonder.

They missed a boner.

Anyone around for early '00s internet knew that already...

Preemptive edit: Connect keeps deleting the text of my post before I can post it and it's really annoying. As a result this might not be as articulate as I tried to make my first attempt at a response.

Where I grew up, there was a horse pasture at the end of the road. (And another at the other end, but that one was at the top of a big hill so I never really saw the horses there. I only know it was a pasture because apparently my sister had a horse there, then lost it when she started getting younger brothers.)

Once my mom was driving my brother and me somewhere, doesn't really matter where, and while she waited at the intersection adjacent to the pasture we could see, my brother and I observed a horse in an odd pose. While waiting to be able to cross traffic, she realized we were trying to figure out the horse's unusual stance and said "and that, gentlemen, is how horses pee."

Thank you for reminding me of my mother, if in an unconventional manner.

That's why it's dangerous to have sex with animals. The size alone can be trained for, but you're dealing with an animal that does not understand consent. Allegedly most horse sex videos featured the animals being drugged to avoid such incidents.

Seriously, just get a horse dildo instead of sexually abusing animals. There's some evidence that they suffer from it, even if the animals can't speak of the harm they suffer.

Of all the NSWF things I'm not clicking, I'm not clicking this one the most

When they say how much a heart weighs, does that include the weight of all the blood inside it? That doesn't seem appropriate because the blood isn't part of the heart, it's actively being pumped through it.

If the blood is not included, then holy crap how is it 5 kg?

oh lawd she commin!

This would probably rupture a humans organs.

there was a boeing engineer who died in this exact manner lol

This time, we fill the man with horses?

It's a Troy under the glorious Soviet Russia protection, tovarish.

In Soviet Russia, you don't stuff the horse. The horse stuffs you!

Yep. Morphologically, that is the horse's wrist, not its elbow. And at the end of the limb is essentially just one big toe, with the hoof being an adapted toenail.

Now imagine being the teacher, trying to proceed with the class when they first open it at this page.
