I'll tell you that this, is not the...
"I already know!" or "Yer a long tongued lout!" or "Ha! Dumbass!" or "yur spiellnj sux0rs.!" thread...

Let's see how much of a smartass you all are!
Tell some neat and unusual facts about anything in general, we might all learn something!

Did you know:

-The great emperor Julius Cesar "Keisar", pronounced the words, "I came, I went, I conquered", like this: "Waynie, Weedie, Weekie!". Latin was a common language used amongst the Northern Romans in 5th Century B.C.

V's = W's
AE's = I's
C's = K's
G's = Go's
Grey the Stampede

Don't mess with powers you don't understand.

And yes. That means donuts.

I did not. Did you know that if enough of the chemical in chocolate that triggers pleasure in a person's brain is consumed in a short enough time, the person that consumes it can experience an orgasm? However, we're talking about tons of chocolate here, more than a person'd possibly be able to eat without their stomach exploding from being overfilled.

Did you know that if you type "weapons of mass destruction" without the quotes (duh...) in google; click on the top first link, it leads to an alternate 404 error?

Probably historical documents of the time.

I saw in a chanel called Infinito (some of you may know this chanel, knuck surely knows it) in a program called 'the seven maian prophecies' (in Brazil it is this name, but in portuguese, i dont know if in other countries it uses this name for the program, anyway...) that they estimulated people's minds since they were babies.
It is like this:

When you are baby, your parents put in your forehead a rock, between your eyes. Like this (being '@' the rock, 'o' the eye):

....@....
o.......o

that place were the small rock is attached is the region of the so known 'third eye', and when the maian were babies they didnt know what was 'touching' or attached in their foreheads, so they forced their eyes to try to look above to their forehead.
This 'vision forcing' attitude estimulate a gland, and the development of this gland's functions would affect the brain and estimulate the telepathy technique.

They were very wise, since it was such older times and they knew this kind of stuff. The point is that we can't understimate our psychic capacities just coz we don't even try to develop them.

Also, I'll try to come back w/ more details (my description of the process was a bit vague ) about how they did this things, after some web searching

So what, looking up a lot makes you psychic?

DID YOU KNOW THAT...
Time is metric to the people who invented it. Originally, a day consisted of 12 hours, 120 minutes each. Because the society who designed it used base 12 numbering (2 more digits between 9 and 10), this was metric to them. (Later the system was changed to 24 60-minute hours.)
NOW YOU KNOW.
