FUN FACT! THE TERM 'TICKER' WAS USED TO REFER TO HUMAN HEARTS AS FAR BACK AS THE 1930'S(ON HUMAN CALENDARS), AND EVEN SAW A RESURGENCE OF THE TERM BEING USED IN THE LATE 90'S TO EARLY 2000'S(AGAIN, IN HUMAN YEARS). I WAS AWOKEN FROM MY NAP JUST FOR MY ROXY TO TELL ME THIS INFORMATION BEFORE THEY SCAMPERED OFF BACK UPSTAIRS. I (PLATONICALLY)LOVE THEM TO DEATH BUT MY OWN 'TICKER' ALMOST JUMPED OUT OF MY CHEST WHEN THEY SHOUTED 'FUN FACT!' YOU THOUGHT I ADDED THE SHOUT POLE FOR WHIMSY? NO, THIS WAS AN ALMOST DIRECT QUOTING
FUN (DEBATABLE)FACT: GAMBLING ADDICTION, NO WHAT WHAT IT'S BASED ON, IS STRONGER IN TROLLS THAN IT IS IN HUMANS. THIS IS BASED OFF OF THE TROLLS' SURVIVAL INSTINCT OF 'CULL OR BE CULLED', THUS FUELING THE GAMBLING PROBLEM BY NEEDING TO WIN.
