It's like if ObviousPlant did PSAs

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 days ago

It's actually easily readable which gives it points from me

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

TIL I am a deer. Thank you science!

Well that's a mystery solved. There are road sections here that get foggier than the rest of the area. I've wondered about that for years and never would've guessed it's the corn.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 2 days ago (3 children)

OP is just atheist propaganda. It's actually because of ghosts. Don't get complacent near the corn fields.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Turns out ghosts also like corn.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Ghosts love to possess the scarecrows of the cornfields.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Oh, I thought it was produced by the creepy kids who hide out in the corn fields. Guess I should maybe stop hitting them with my car as they walk out.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

Oh.

Then I'll try to hit them twice as hard. Gotta correct those poor life decisions.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

Atheists and ghosts are not mutually exclusive. They're just not allowed to worship the ghosts.

First time I've ever seen/heard transpire used in that way. I'm one of today's lucky 10,000!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

"Transpire" is the plant version of "perspire." TIL, too!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Fun fact, that's the origin of the word.

That kid is one of my favorite things to come out of the internet.

Have you ever seen the lady who attaches the corn to a drill so she can eat it really fast?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The one who get scalped by the drill?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

I was thinking of the one who lost her front teeth but I remember the scalping one too.

I always get a bad case of corn fog when I eat too much caramel corn

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I wonder how come, since C4 plants, such as corn, have high water-use efficiency

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 days ago (1 children)

A plant can use water efficiently, in terms of getting a lot of CO2 in exchange for the water they transpire, and still use a lot of water.

Corn grows super fast at peak season.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

In some cases, such as no wind, you can evem hear it growing. It's like bamboo in that regard, which makes sense since they're both grasses

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

Yeah, it’s a very creepy experience to walk through a corn field at night in July.

Definitely no place for children. If you see any, run like hell. ;)
