useless facts... vol.1

well everynow and again i try to post some useless facts in my status on fb...

so i figured hey i havent done it in a while and i need some laugh time so i found a couple and figured i would share with all of you

enjoy some of the more golden stupid useless facts in life..

ok here we go...

and when im done please go ahead and share some of your useless knowledge with me..


1.On average, 100 people choke to death on ballpoint pens every year.


2.Thirty-five percent of the people who use personal ads for dating are already married


3. It's possible to lead a cow upstairs...but not downstairs.


4. The electric chair was invented by a dentist. (hmmmmmmm)

5. "Go." is the shortest complete sentence in the English language.

6. If Barbie were life-size, her measurements would be 39-23-33. She would stand seven feet, two inches tall.

7. The cigarette lighter was invented before the match.


8. Spiral staircases in medieval castles are running clockwise. This is because all knights used to be
right-handed. When the intruding army would climb the stairs they would not be able to use their right hand which was holding the sword because of the difficulties of climbing the stairs. Left-handed knights would have had no troubles, except left-handed people could never become knights because it was assumed that they were descendants of the devil.

9.The house fly hums in the middle octave key of F.

10. The longest place name still in use is:
Taumatawhakatangihangaoauauotameteat uripukakapikimaungahoronukupokaiwhenua kitanatahu
-- a New Zealand hill. (See if your spell check has this word)

How do they come to that conclusion? 7'2 sounds larger than life-size to me... Wouldn't it make more sense to shrink her down to a more normal height and decrease the other measurements proportionally?

yeah i always heard people say if she was real she would be very tall and too top heavy she would be handicaped from her boobs having her height and waste size...

See, that's what I think is silly; if they make her taller than normal then her boobs will be bigger than most even if she's averagely proportionate. The interesting thing is, how big would they be if she was of average height? We have to establish this once and for all! smile

Really, her head is disproportionately small compared to her body? It rather looks disproportionately large to me, as far as I can remember (I don't have a Barbie doll right in front of me, lol).

If the hips or waist are smaller than average I don't think it matters much. There's usually a lot of variation in that department anyway. But I agree that it would be weird if the head would be totally the wrong size...

Actually you may be right about her head. Her proportions definitely don't look normal

Cool thread. I used to have a book entitled The Book of Styrange Facts and Useless Information. I'm pretty sure I got on my friends' nerves quoting stuff from it. For instance...

- Aside from humans, the only other animal that mates face to face is the two-toed sloth.

- A sneeze exits tthe mouth at 100 mph.

- The female preying mantis bites off the males head as he copulates because his death throes intensifies the thrusts. She then eats the male once insemination has occured.

- Elephants can't jump.

- The average human eats 8 spiders in their lifetime at night.

- The name of all the continents end with the same letter they begin with.

- No word in the English language rhymes with purple.

1)The sentence "the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" uses every letter in the English language.

2)The word racecar and kayak are the same whether they are read left to right or right to left.

3)TYPEWRITER, is the longest word that can be made using the letters on only one row of the keyboard.

4)Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia is the fear of long words.

5)A raisin dropped in a glass of fresh champagne will bounce up and down continually from the bottom of the glass to the top.


Finally some were to share my fun facts calendar Thank you

OP Barbie fact applies to the Barbie furthest on the right - note small head, tiny waist and very wide ribcage and bust. Head size has increased since on several models!

I remember in drawing class ideal human proportion was 8 heads high or something hmmm That older Barbie was more like 9 heads high.
