"Cats don't treat humans as "bald kittens" for them to tardwrangle and look after. IIRC They see you as other cats, with a pack mentality. It's why they don't mind you dealing with their kittens, as it's you sharing the parenting job. It's also why they bring back surplus food in the form of dead animals, for the old, sick, and parents of the colony. You're not going out catching food so they bring you some back when they do. They also understand as much as dogs do, they just don't give a shit, and haven't been bred as servants like dogs have. So you can teach them tricks and communicate with them as you would a dog. They're not little dumbasses who think you're a six foot hairless kitten for them to raise, they do understand they're part of a colony, even if it's a Human-Feline mix. They're pretty neat, even if they're not everyone's cup of tea "

"Waiting 30 minutes after eating before going back to swimming. It won't get you cramps. And as any physical excercise it's important to stretch out before doing it to minimize cramps. Edit: stretching cold muscles are bad too and another myth. I stand corrected Edit 2 : where i come from the pool and eating thing was told to us like this "if you dont wait 30 minutes minimum, you'll get a cramp which will hinder your swimming capabilities and make you drown." Vomiting was never said "

The belief that the daddy long legs is actually the most venomous spider in the world, but the only reason it's venom can't hurt you is because it's fangs are too short to puncture human skin. IIRC, daddy long legs technically aren't even spiders, and even if they were, their fangs are actually as long as other more dangerous spiders. And for the record, the most venomous spider in the world is the Brazilian wanderer, whose venom has a very interesting side effect on human males before it kills them...

That milk is the best source of calcium: there's actually plenty of foods that have more calcium than a glass of milk, like salmon, spinach, kale, almonds, and oatmeal Good news for our lactose intolerant friends Edit: I researched the calcium content in spinach more and this article says cooked spinach contains 115 mg calcium per half cup. A whole cup of milk has about 300mg per cup. My mistake! This article goes into the different calcium absorption levels for different foods too, which I had no knowledge of before this, and it says that you absorb more calcium from milk per serving than spinach, so yeah! The more you know! (thanks to u/tryhardfit for pointing this out)
That drinking milk will make your bones strong that you have to wait an hour or more after a meal to go swimming that you get a cold from being cold that one human year is seven dog years.
Blood is blue/purple until it hits oxygen. Edit: I mainly said this because I got into it with some people in a friend group and no matter what I told/showed them they refused to accept anything.
That knights in full armor were clunky, heavy and slow, or that their swords were blunt and used as bats This is wrong in so many levels. In truth it's the complete opposite
""The customer is always right" was put about by salesmen who's job is to find what products their customers want. E.g. "don't tell your customer what they want, they'll tell you." It does not apply to any other field of business. Whoever started saying this about other jobs has never met a customer. "
