does this just mean that your brain releases a 6th of the "feel-good-chemicals" which make orgasms feel good? If so, heroin does the same thing (as an orgasm, not a sneeze) and eating does it to, but probably less than a 6th.

The largest living organism (that we know about) is a honeycomb fungus that spreads over approx. 3 states in the US (not actually over it, it would be prettymuch common knowledge then!)

I cant find anything to back this up, but we got told that in a 3rd yr microbiology lecture, so im assuming they wouldnt bullshit us that much this year?

I knew that too. Cos we had this anal retentive asshole of a biology teacher who put the 'largest living organism' in a class test and since nobody knew of this huge fungus we all failed....yeh that day really sucked.
