Patrick must eat rocks in order to completely digest his food. The rocks that Patrick eats are called gastroliths, these rocks further grind fibers to ease Patrick's digestion.

How do you stab a Post-It note?
You must take a wooden stake, saw it down to a sharp point at 15.75 centimeters, then hold the Post-it 6 centimeters above a bulletin board, then proceed to stab it. It will then become lodged into the board with the stake.

Storm troopers do not always miss however they do have a tendency to miss. Because they are clones, they tend to have the same skill and hand-eye coordination therefore playing a major role in their ability to aim. It is, however impossible to always miss because, assuming that their aim is completely random (coming from the idea that they lack in hand-eye coordination and skill), there is always a small chance they may hit their target.
