Phandom refers to a community of fans who follow the popular YouTubers, AmazingPhil and danisnotonfire. Phandom members often draw cat whiskers on their faces as a symbol of their fandom and are known as the Phamily. The fans are divided into two groups, one for each YouTuber, with Dans side being associated with more internet drama, and Phils side being perceived as sweeter and more innocent. Each group has its own respective animal symbol, with Dans being llamas and Phils being lions. Some fans of Dan may also have an interest in placentas and Delia Smith. Phans of Phil may draw him naked, despite his innocent image.

George IV (1762-1830) was the King of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and also served as the King of Hanover from 1820 until his death in 1830. He is often remembered for his extravagant lifestyle that contributed to the fashions of the Regency era, while his charm and culture earned him the title of the first gentleman of England. However, overshadows of his political irresponsibility, his dissipated lifestyle, and his failed marriage to Caroline of Brunswick have tarnished his legacy. Before ascending to the throne, he served as the Prince Regent due to his fathers, George III, mental illness, a period which is referred to as the Regency Era. His reign is also noted for a series of major events such as the Catholic Emancipation and the defeat of Napoleon.

The litre (international spelling) or liter (American English spelling) (SI symbols L and l, other symbol used: ℓ) is a metric unit of volume. It is equal to 1 cubic decimetre (dm3), 1000 cubic centimetres (cm3) or 0.001 cubic metre (m3). A cubic decimetre (or litre) occupies a volume of 10 cm × 10 cm × 10 cm (see figure) and is thus equal to one-thousandth of a cubic metre.
The original French metric system used the litre as a base unit. The word litre is derived from an older French unit, the litron, whose name came from Byzantine Greek—where it was a unit of weight, not volume—via Late Medieval Latin, and which equalled approximately 0.831 litres. The litre was also used in several subsequent versions of the metric system and is accepted for use with the SI, although not an SI unit—the SI unit of volume is the cubic metre (m3). The spelling used by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures is litre, a spelling which is shared by most English-speaking countries. The spelling liter is predominantly used in American English.One litre of liquid water has a mass of almost exactly one kilogramme, because the kilogramme was originally defined in 1795 as the mass of one cubic decimetre of water at the temperature of melting ice (0 °C). Subsequent redefinitions of the metre and kilogramme mean that this relationship is no longer exact.

The rete Malpighii is a layer of the skin also known as the stratum germinativum or stratum malpighii. It is the innermost layer of the epidermis where cellular division takes place and new cells are formed, which then migrate to the outer layers of the skin. Named after its discoverer, the Italian anatomist Marcello Malpighi, the rete malpighii is responsible for skins regenerative properties.
