Argentina's Mosquito Tornado! (And Other SCIENCE News)
Here's something interesting. According to a new study from London, "night owls" are twice as likely to perform poorly at work and take disability than "early birds" are. In a related story, there's a new study by worms that says early birds suck balls.
In Argentina, thousands of insects swarmed together to form what officials are calling a "mosquito tornado". It's either the most nightmarish insect phenomena I've ever heard of, or a damn fine premise for a Nicolas Cage movie.
In Israel, animal rescuers have found a miracle cure for treating turtles caught in oil spills: mayonnaise. They say it works especially well if you grab a roll of bread and make them into a delicious turtle hoagie.
In Indonesia, a fisherman has found a mutant baby shark born with a "human face". He even gave the little guy a nickname-- Casper the friendly Klansman.
Did you guys catch this? The FDA has granted emergency use authorization for Johnson & Johnson's single-shot vaccine. The good news is, it's also available in a new tear-free formula! The bad news is, you have to inject the Johnson and Johnson in your johnson.
Finally, researchers say social media users desperate for likes "have thinking patterns similar to lab rats seeking food". Uh whatever, sounds like BS to me. Now listen guys, daddy's gotta eat, so smash the crap out of that Like button, OK?!
