dumb stuff in your head?
 
Here’s something new…I think.
Post a stupid fact that you know. Something that you really don’t have any reason to remember but you do anyway. Don’t be shy, show us all how “trivia smart” you are.

I’ll start:
Tom Hanks first television role was on the Mr. Rogers program as one of the “Flying Zucchini Brothers”

oh yeah... the phrase "THE SQUARE ROOT OF ANY TWO SIDES OF AN ISCOSOLES TRIANGLE IS EQUAL TO THE SQUARE ROOT OF THE REMAINING SIDE" spoken by the scarecrow in the wizard of oz when he received his new brain is mathmatically incorrect.

I guess that scarecrow guessed that if he said the theorem really FAST, no one would notice!
Yeah, I laughed too. I'm such a nerd! :D

From another post I made earlier: those little plastic things on the end of shoelaces are called aglets.

"Kemo Sabe" actually means soggy shrub in Navajo.
Almonds and pistachios are the only two nuts mentioned in the bible.
In ancient Egypt, when the cat died, the entire family would shave their eyebrows as a sign of mourning.

All true, and all useless!

I memorized a license plate on a white Avalanche because my friend's dad has a white Avalanche but I couldn't get close enough to see if it was him, so I thought, "Next time I go over to my friend's house I'll just check to see if their license plates match." That way I'd be able to say to my friend, "Dude, I saw your pops on my way over to school." (my friend's dad works at a hospital close to our university). Kinda pointless for me to have done that, because later on I found out that his dad doesn't even have license plates on it yet (the truck is new). License plate: 6ZTV33. Doesn't really help ya if you don't at least know what state I'm in, so... stuff.

• Peanuts are one of the ingredients of dynamite.
• There are more chickens than people in the world.
• Two-thirds of the world's eggplant is grown in New Jersey.
• Al Capone's business card said he was a used furniture dealer.
• A dragonfly has a life span of 24 hours.

And on the subject of the "Wizard of Oz"

• The name for Oz in the "Wizard of Oz" was thought up when the creator, Frank Baum, looked at his filing cabinet and saw A-N, and O-Z; hence the name "OZ".

Okay i'm done.

Did you know that Whinnie the Pooh was a hippie? That is why he is always so laid back. He smokes heaps of pot. That also explains why he is always looking for honey. Sever munchies. He never wants to hurt anyone. Even in the most stress provoking situations he still remains calm. And it also explains why he doesnt wear pants.

Piglet is his homosexual lover and dealer. Piglet is the bitch in the relationship. He is always submissive, gives Pooh whatever he wants and loves doing housework.

Tigger is on speed which is why he is always bouncing all over the place and why he is always so happy.

So next time your reading Whinnie the pooh to your kids think about the message your sending to them...

Tomato leaves are fatal to humans.

A spider's silk thread wound together with the thickness of 1/2 inch can stop a 747 in flight.

skier 07-06-2004 01:03 PM

oooo cool one spider silk is so crazy strong. I don't think you could get enough silk together in time before it decomposed though.

The famous scene in When Harry Met Sally when Billy Crystal starts talking with the funky accent was not scripted. You can see Meg Ryan look at the director for help at one point.

unoaman 08-10-2004 09:42 AM

Putting bandages, and catsup on a kid, and having him lay out on the curb...doesn't make many motorists stop to help.

Untrue, but close. The waveform of a duck's quack looks exactly like the decay rate of an echo, so the echo gets wrapped in with the orginal sound and you don't notice it. Source: Mythbusters.

Bentley Little 08-10-2004 10:15 AM

if the thread of a spider were woven together tightly to make a rope the diameter of 1/2 inch (and strung across the sky), it would stop a 747 in flight by ripping it in half; since it would be many many times stronger than steel.
