He musta been talk'n bout the parades at WDW.





My useless fact :


Humans aren't the only mammals with eye boogers.

I prefer the term: "Opti-Goop"!

Are any facts really useless?

Yes, some facts are useless.

Example :

Where does the word "fart" come from?

According to Eric Partridge in his excellent book of word origins , our word fart comes from the Old English word feortan, presumably of echoic origin, meaning that the word was chosen to sound like the object named.



See,,pretty useless.

That is not useless. Everyone should know that!

That is not useless. Everyone should know that!

However, I could have done without the booger statistics. Some things in life should remain a mystery.

Laugh and the world laughs with you; fart and they'll stop laughing.

Laugh and the world laughs with you; fart and they'll stop laughing.

Unless it happens to be a man hearing the fart. In that case, they'll laugh for an hour.

I love to fart loudly in a crowded public men's room...its like telling a joke without words...and everybody gets the joke...even the kids!

Did you know they sell such a thing as "fart spray".
I kid you NOT. How do I know that you ask . I have sons.
One summer my younger son and his friend thought it was the most hilarious thing on earth to go into the campground bathroom and make fart sounds and spray this. They would laugh their butts off watching people finish their "business" and run out of there..totally disgusted. Then one day they met a REALLY big guy, who didn't appreciate their idea of fun. They went running for their lives! (but they didn't loose the can of fart spray)
I had to remind Mr. Funny guy, that while he was spraying that stuff, he wasn't just stinking up the bathroom...He WREAKED. We made him strip naked before we let him back into the camper.
Boys..ya gotta love 'em!

If they laughed their butts off, how did they keep farting?

Useless fact of the day:

People photocopying their buttocks are the cause of 23% of all photocopier faults worldwide.

 

[BigDaddyRog]

And the cause of WINDEX's sales increase of 23%......so this practice stimulates the economy, creates jobs for copier machine repairmen, and has been making people laugh for at least the last 20 years or so............SO GET OUT THERE AND PHOTOCOPY YOUR BUTT!!!!
