Just something of interest that is nonpolitical. Be sure to click on "View as List" to avoid the slideshow.

I found #52 to be particularly fascinating: "Do liberals really understand how the world works? No, they do not." OK...even though that's true, it's not on the list. The other 51 others are real, though.

I stopped after I read #1. When I noticed I had to click “next” to see the next one I didn’t want to click 52 times.

Do you have a synopsis that you could give us?

Booze doesn’t kill brain cells and vaccines are harmless?

Hmmm..

Particularly like the salt doesn’t make a difference in boiling but it may make it take longer. Which is it?

That was good.

The list was also interesting.

Nice to take a break from politics where the truth is hard to find.

Thanks for posting.

Wait wait wait:

If a bullet fired up into the air can come down with enough velocity to kill a person, why not a penny dropped from a high building?

Physics majors please opine.

Oil in pasta absolutely keeps it from sticking together. Maybe it makes no difference in the boiling pot, but once you pour it into a strainer, it makes all the difference in the world.

Thanks to all you bullshitters out there, we have the truth! Why do people spread these lies? Just to feel the power?

Regarding swallowing spiders at night. CPAP users beware, that nose/face piece and hose assembly is a great place for bugs of all sorts, including spiders, to hangout in when the machine is not in use. You will not swallow the bug, but it gets in your mouth or nose.

There are more facts that are actually false, such as the earth is going through a period of warming caused by man.

I like this one:

“Vaccines cause autism: Groundless fears based on fraudulent research that’s been shown to have been manipulated.”

How many things in this category can you think of in 60 seconds?

Celebrities die in threes.

Everyone knows that's true. ;-)

Did it wriggle and jiggle and tickle inside her?

sugar=hyperactivity

Poor or rowdy behavior still occur in children with sugar free diets.

Well duh.

However sugar or fast release energy food do tend to make children wiggly.

bulls are color blind

Also false. They see color but it is not as intense as humans see color.

Everest is only the tallest mountain above sea level.

Highest point on earth = Tallest mountain. Talk about nit-picky.

Ben Franklin - Turkey...

He wanted it as our national bird. Once again, nit-picky.
