Yes I do... Does anyone know why carrots are orange?? Is there any particular reasons??

 

10 million years :O Well... I am just going to have to determine my own strangeness then *pulls out buzzer helmet*

Carrots are orange because their tissue contains a pigment that inhibits the reflection of certain light wavelengths. :nerd:

No, but you see things because they reflect light into your eyes. Hence the pigments make the carrot orange. As for the actual biological purpose of the pigments, I can't be bothered to look that up. :P

:P I love doing that. In real life it annoys people, and stops them from bothering me so much.

I'm lucky enough to be pretty much immune to tickling. XD

 

Random fact: there are two different types of tickling, the scientific terms for which are knismesis and gargalesis.

Oh yay, an invitation for poking! *loads rapid-fire poke cannons* :evil:

 

XD I need to get an assignment done for tomorrow and I'm busy messing with my search indexer's configuration instead.

Well if it's done by somebody who has very little experience... :P I'm kind of a poke war veteran, having inadvertently gotten caught up in several poke wars in the past.
