Random and possibly untrue facts about badgers.

I heard that badgers evolved legs on January 5th, the year 841 A.D. My sources aren't confirmed yet, though.

I'd like to drink some koolaid, however, my sources is not a cult. I also don't belong to a cult. However, I do know some badgers who do belong in one. Atleast, they claim to be a member of some kind of k cult.

I heard that the first tank used in WWi was based on a design of wooden badgers that were commonly used as siege weapons. After years of fighting, the attackers would pretend to surrender and give a gift of a large wooden badger. In there, there were the best soldiers and when night fell, those soldiers would get out and kill everyone.

Those incidents had a profound impact on Josef Mengele, who started breeding dogs with badgers, creating dashhunds, a fierce breed that aided German soldiers in WWII. The allied forces retaliated in the Battle of Hamburg, when they set fire to the Hamburgers and their dashhunds. Thus the name 'hot dog' was born.

There is a rumour that Newton was bitten by a rabid badger shortly before he discovered the laws of physics.

Hmm. This leaves me pause to reflect on the accuracy of FOX news. Or of this thread.

Absolutely, there are many stories that follow this pattern; Jesus was scratched by badgers around the age of 12, disappeared for a couple of decades and returned with divine revelation. Coincidence?

Benjamin Franklin lost the tip of his left pinky to a badger before 'inventing' an incredibly efficient stove. Ghandi, whilst lawyering is South Africa, spent a whole day in the badger carriage of a train on the way to Rodesia (now Zimbabwe). Not long after, he returned home to lead a nation. It won't surprise you to hear that Ghandi's assassin had affiliations with the red menace, otherwise known the vulpesy vulpes. How about Abraham Lincoln and John Wilkes-Booth? John's nickname was Lupine Lou. Need I say more?

The number of stories that involve so-called 'human achievements' where a badger (and their eternal nemeses) makes an appearance is astounding.

Excellent analysis. I also should add that Rupert Murdoch is rumoured to have had a nasty encounter with a badger from outer space.

Perhaps. I am not against badgers. Are you?

Do you mean to say that you favor badgers?

I don't know any badgers, to be specific, I'm not familiar with their way of thinking so I can't say I am against badgers or that I am for badgers.
