One of the most common misconceptions about bananas is that they grow on trees. Turns out, bananas are actually herbs (I know, your whole life is a lie). Oh and herbs don't grow on trees, they grow on herb plants. So when you see a banana "tree" it's actually a giant herb. And now the reason that bananas are considered herbs is because for something to be considered a fruit, it has to have some sort of woody tissue connecting the fruit to the plant and bananas don't have that... And there's not a specific reason that bananas are considered fruits other than the fact that they're sweet-ish and are fruit-looking I guess.

Nasty water
In the past 200 years or so the sanitation of water has increased greatly. The fact that there is filtration and processing for every drop of water that we drink is amazing. If you look at the sewer systems in chicago and new york and such, you can see all of the filth that has to be removed from the system for it to be clean. And i'm glad the sewers are underground and not on our streets and all over the place. The thing that fascinates me the most is that this was revolutionized in the mid 1800s which took lots of thinking and genius for back then.

election results -_-
I feel ok about the election I guess. I would tell them that the results are the results so we're going to have to deal with it right now. I feel like most people weren't happy because the voting was strategic and not because they liked their candidate, they just disliked them less. This causes lots of disappointment. But this is how politics works :/.

Fearrrr
I am very much so scared of Bears with Chainsaw arms. I'm also scared of responsibilities and girls. Psalm 27:1 clearly states that there is no need to fear because I have God. Fear can cause people to be less explorative or fun. This can lead to a more boring life style.
