that's not my birthday, i just saw it in the list and thought it was funny

but of course a birthday by itself is not secret information, you'd need to have a security-question type of information like the street you grew up on or your high school's mascot

Many of the examples in that thread were cool & good. I myself have oft repeated the story of the mysterious knives in the ceiling.

The one about the attracting egg seemed less good, but it turns out that is only because the tweeter did a terrible job of summarising Dr Martin’s findings. :shobon:

:eng101: The first ever described dinosaur fossil was named Scrotum humanum because it looked like a ballsack.

When the rest of the animal was described it was (and still is) dubbed Megalosaurus because of a rule in the taxonomic code that allows retiring names that haven't been in use since 1899.

Edit: well, that explains how they were allowed to rename it, but the reason why they did is probably because, as that tweet says, the world of zoological nomenclature was populated by buzzkills for a time

Botany is worse.

They don’t even allow tautonyms.

Ziziphus zizyphus had been in use since 1882, but in 2011 it was decided that it was too close to being a tautonym, so it got renamed.

Zoologists are like “the western lowland gorilla? Gorilla gorilla gorilla seems appropriate.”

It’s called the “calyx”. It’s where the flower, part of the plant’s genitals, used to be. Fruits are themselves the enlarged ovaries of a plant.

Medlars have an extremely prominent calyx. Shakespeare referenced medlars in multiple jokes.



Romeo and Juliet, Act II, scene 1

Place: A lane by the wall of Capulet’s orchard.

Speaker: Mercutio

If love be blind, love cannot hit the mark.
Now will he sit under a medlar tree,
And wish his mistress were that kind of fruit
As maids call medlars, when they laugh alone.
Romeo, that she were, O, that she were
An open et caetera, thou a poperin pear!
Romeo, good night: I'll to my truckle-bed;
This field-bed is too cold for me to sleep:
Come, shall we go?
