Grøss og gru. Den filmen minnet meg på ordtaket "If it ain't broke, fix it, then add duct tape".

"Varmt vann veier mer enn gull"

 

forklar med hvordan det er fysisk mulig, fra kjemi timen min så veier vann mest når det er på 4C og gull veier nesten 20 ganger så mye som vann.

I norge "promillekjøres" det daglig - en lengde som tilsvarer jorda rundt over tre ganger!

 

Dødsrisikoen for en sjåfør under 25 år - er 900 ganger større med promille - enn for en edru sjåfør på samme alder.

 

(vet ikke om jeg skal kalle dette for unyttig, men måtte bare ha det med.)

 

Til tross for denne viten kjører omlag 11 000 normenn med promille hver eneste dag.

 

Jeg blir 16 om ikke så lenge, og kan snart øvelseskjøre. Får heller holde meg til cola.

 

Øl + Trafikk = Selvmord

Siden jeg ser på det som helt uinteresant så velger jeg å sitere første post.

 

Siden enkelte må ha det inn med teskjeer:

Det postes kun UNYTTIGE FAKTA og ikke UINTERESSANTE fakta. Det som postes må følgelig ha en viss almen interesse. Dette er definitivt ikke en tråd for å fortelle om private forhold som hva dere har på brødskiva eller hvilket skonummer dere bruker!

Slikt bes rapportert og de som fortsetter å forsøple tråden kan vente seg reaksjoner.

Nesbyen i Hallingdal er målt til Norges varmeste sted med 35,6 grader celsius i skyggen.

Dette skjedde på 70- tallet en gang.

Jau, det er ikke alltid varmt her nei... Hadde -50°ish (Flyplassen ble vel målt til -49.8) en nyttårsaften for ikke lenge siden (1999 -> 2000 eller 2000 -> 2001 dagen)

[Hunterz]

Dersom du presset alle bakteriene ut av innvollene dine, så vil du nesten kunne fylle en kaffekopp.

 

Om du kombinerte alle musklene i kroppen til et gjennomsnittsmenneske til en stor muskel, så ville den muskelen kunne skape en kraft på nesten 18 meganewton. (Men fortsatt ville det vært enkelte syltetøyglass som ville vært umulige å få opp.)

 

Hver dag svelger en gjennomsnittsperson nesten en liter snørr. (Det fine her er at snørret heldigvis passerer bakerst i svelget og ikke tar turen om munnhulen der tungen sitter. Urk...)

 

Du bruker 150 kalorier i timen på å dunke hodet i en vegg.

 

Gutter med uvanlige fornavn har en større sjanse til å få psykiske problemer enn gutter med vanlige fornavn. Jenter har ikke slike problemer. (Noen uvanlige navn som muligens bekrefter dette: Ari, Elling, Carl Ivar, Saddam, Adolf, Vidkun og Harald)

 

Blodet i menneskekroppen beveger seg nesten 100.000 km gjennom kroppens blodårer i løpet av et døgn. (Eller over 900 ganger rundt jorden i løpet av et år.

Vidkun var vistnok ikke et uvanlig mannsnavn i Norge frem til andre verdenskrig. Ifølge hjemmesiden til Statistisk sentralbyrå er det 21 mennesker som per idag har Vidkun som fornavn.

 

En ting som jeg nettop fant ut som er litt snodig er at på navnesøk-siden hos SSB får en ikke opp noen historisk referanse (graf) over hvor mye navnet Vidkun er brukt. Dette er noe som kommer opp på alle andre fornavn jeg har søkt på på den siden....
