This week on Blurry Hysteria, we’re going from botany to debauchery faster than a cucumber can… well… explode.
First up: Meet the squirting cucumber—a totally real plant that launches its seeds like a veggie cannonball at speeds up to 29 mph. It's evolution’s answer to “hold my beer,” and yes, scientists are weirdly excited about its fruit-based fireworks.
Then, things get extra juicy as we head to the quiet English village of Festival shame—I mean fame. Hundreds of adventurous couples descended upon a sleepy town for Swingathon, the UK’s biggest sex festival. Camping, classes, and copulation abound—turns out the only thing louder than the exploding cucumbers might be the neighbors complaining.
We’re mixing nature’s naughtiness with human hilarity in an episode that will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about produce and polite British society. And yes, Flora makes all the cucumber jokes you’re already thinking of (and worse).
