Bet ya didnt know.....
Heres a place for the useless trivia that we all have heard at some time:D
Eg: In a park, if a statue of a person on a horse has the horse's both front legs in the air, the person died in battle. If the horse has one front leg in the air, the person died a result of wounds received in battle. If the horse has all four legs on the ground, the person died of natural causes. |
Winston Churchill was born in a ladies' room during a dance
Donald Duck's middle name is Fauntleroy If you were locked in a completely sealed room, you will die of carbon dioxide poisoning before you die of oxygen deprivation |
Everytime you lick a stamp, you're consuming 0.1 calorie
No word in the English language rhymes with month, orange, silver or purple An ostrich's eye is bigger than it's brain |

PS - a booger is a sign that your nose is working properly :D |
OK Sharni, I'll try to get this back on track...for now anyway.-- In the northern hemisphere, the sun is closer to the earth in the winter than it is in the summer.

Thanx luv2please for the new one...:) A pregnant goldfish is called a twit :D |

The average American has 7 pounds of rotting red meat in their intestines.
Sorry...I don't know how that translates into kilos or stones! :) Humans lose an average of 40lbs of dead skin cells in a lifetime! Ophelia |
uh... uh... 'racecar' spelled backwards is 'racecar'. yeah! beat that! *thrusts arms into the air in celebratory fashion*
|
Rev, that's what's called a "palindrome"... and the longest palindrome (as far as I know) is, "A man, a plan, a canal, Panama"
|
Able was I ere I saw Elba.
2 letters shorter, but by Napoleon, also shorter. A palindrome, to be true, should form a sentence or so the purists say. Phrase or word will do. |
sure, just ruin my fun.
|
Hey, it all qualifies as useless knowledge, right?
|
Bet you didn't know that I was sitting here in a wet chair..... :(
And yes that was usless information to tell you...lmfao!:D :p The moon is a completely silent place as noises cannot be heard, as there is no air to carry sound from one place to another. :) |
Diva, the info on your chair is not really useless... but neither was it a real newsflash to those of us that know you lol...
|
Is it that obvious???;) :D
|
useless trivia....
if you drink too much alcohol, you'll get sick and probably won't remember what happened :D |
Reverend Silky:
the strongest magic spell of "Catweazle" is: SATOR AREPO TENET OPERA ROTAS You can read the same words not only back and forth, also up and down! Try to beat this... (the words are latin, but don´t ask me the meaning) Planes do not have sear rows numbered 13, and hotels do not have a 13th floor |
2.2 lbs. = 1 kg

that's 15.4 lbs of rotten meat and 88 lbs. of skin cells.... :cool:that only Americans [and the English] can equate to.:o [and a stone probably equal an uneven number of pebbles (which NOBODY knows the density of:confused: )] TRUE STORY- One of my customers is a small firm of ALL Russian born fellows doing development of vacuum plasma vapor deposition (tool coatings) who are an extremely sharp bunch of guys that have a super sense of humor. Having worked on a number of projects with them, they share some of their “inside jokes” with me. They say that after they get here, they understand how the US beat the USSR in the space race days. They are introduced to the stupid system of measurement we work with:mad: and immediately know that :confused:“every American HAS TO BE A GENIUS.” |
PF - I would have thought that US scientists would be using the SI units (eg kilogram, metre etc.)....if they aren't then they should be.
|
Did you know that elephants can't jump.
Sorry that is my fav useless piece of info :) |
Tale is told of the millions USA spent developing a "space pen",
while the Russians just used crayons. Spend enough money and you can re-invent a wheel. It's still a wheel, just more expensive. |
Legend,
A Mars probe was lost because some scientists were working in SI and others in Imperial. Only cost about $800 Mill I Think, about a trillion Aussie Pesos. |

I have heard that old joke about "Americans have so many pounds of undigested red meat in their intestines" for years, AND IT ISN'T SO! At the clinic I manage, our Doctors do colonoscopies all the time, and we have to do a "bowel prep" which means the patient takes nothing by mouth except for a liquid laxitive the night before the procedure. This cleans you out! Completely! And no one has lost more than a pound ir two, and most of it is water! I know Americans eat too much red meat, but that is seen in heart disease and being overweight, not carrying around undigested meat in their tummies! *Removing the nursing suit and cap... much more comfy this way!* WW |
Go to the supermarket, pick up a 3kg (6.5lb) roast and picture
that in your innards. Not so, I think, he chuckled.... |
The average human head weighs 8 pounds.
A pit bull terrier has 2000 pounds of pressure per square inch in their jaws. In Japan, Akitas are used as babysitters. Helen Keller brought the first Akita to America. You can make napalm by mixing gasoline and styrofoam. A squirel fish looks nothing like a squirel. |
Petrol, mothballs, topped up with lux flakes will give
you either get napalm or something harmless but smelly. |
OF - either way, there aren't going to be any moths around :)

If you recieve the "Death Penalty"for a crime.They will not give you a "lethal injection"unless a sterilised(sp)needle is used and
they use an antiseptic agent to sterilise the injection site!The sentence has been heldup or postponed because this could not be performed.Why? If you are raped.If the person that rapes you has"AIDs";you cannot find out because if you are told;it is-an invasion of their "Privacy." Aquaman---In most states"Sodomy"is illegal.As an "Ass Man";why aren't you active in the repeal of this law? Irish |
