You can lick your own elbow, just cut off your arm and lick to your hearts content. :)

Phelyx: // There are not two credit cards for every person in the United States however they may average to be two.

It means the exact same thing. The sentence rearranged is: For every person in the USA, there are two credit cards.

I beg to differ. I have a friend who can indeed lick her own elbow...I've seen her do it. Out of respect for her privacy, I'm not posting a pic, so don't ask.

A man says average 4850 words in 24 hours.

Heh, I wonder what the numbers are for women.


---my girlfriend says women talk twice that amount, because they have to repeat everything....and i said "what?"

:-)

goodnight folks.

What exchange student wrote this article? The grammar in this list is almost offensive to the English language.

The "pound" (#) key on your keyboard is called an octothorp.

Some of these "facts" are true, but this one's just bullshiat.



You are right. It is called a key or a button just the same as the rest of them.

Once I could not decode number 10 and found 11 lacking in content I could not make myself read any more of these for fear of a head asplosion

Same here.

Oddly enough, I got close though. If I had the tongue of Gene Simmons, i could get it. I'm about an inch short.

It means the exact same thing. The sentence rearranged is: For every person in the USA, there are two credit cards.

For every two person credit in the USA there are cards.

The position of words in a sentence, along with many other things affects the meaning.

Capitalization is the difference between "I had to help my uncle Jack off a horse.." and "I had to help my uncle jack off a horse.."

I never tried, but I am guessing that it would only require one person could handle those duties. You know, unless you want to, well, er...

It is a good thing they included references with all those grammatically correct facts, other wise you'd have to assume a large portion of them were bullsh*t urban legends.

/Bets subby submitted the link just because he believed the thought of all those farkers out there trying to like their elbows would be funny.

Personal favorites:

#24 - Look at your zipper. See the initials YKK? It stands for Yoshida Kogyo kabushikigaisha, the world's largest zipper manufacturer.

- This was actually true for me.


#63 - The three wealthiest families in the world have more assets than the Combined wealth of the forty-eight poorest nations.

#111 - American Airlines saved $40,000 in 1987 by eliminating one olive from each salad served in first-class.

- i'm taking operations management and i found this one funny


my vote for worst grammar:

#4 - 4% people drink cold drink daily.

I always heard that blinking quickly was a sign of lying. No wonder women blink twice as much as men! (no. 96)

And I thought the stuff about the statues was cool to know.

Ummmm, nick394, I hate to break it to you, but unkempt ends with mpt, not mt. Maybe you should use the preview function.

Its not important if you can lick your own elbow.

It is important however that you can lick your own breast...

This counts for you guys too.

Owner of a long tongue here, but my ability to lick my own elbows is impeded by my ability to touch my own kneecaps without bending over.

88: If you leave Tokyo by plane at 7:00am, you will arrive in Honolulu at Approximately 4:30pm the previous day.

What if I don't want to go to Honolulu?

21: Alfred Southwick developed the idea of using electric current & Professionally he was a Dentist (MDS, DDS).

119: The electric chair was invented by a dentist.


I think that the general idea was that AS was a dentist who developed the electric chair and who also was a proponent of using one of the two types of electric current in the use of said chair...

27: Chocolate can be killed dogs! True, chocolate affects a dog's heart and nervous system. A few ounces is enough to kill a small sized dog.

Bull. I have a Pomeranian that ate most of a Hershey bar about 6 years ago with no ill effect. Another, his sister, stole most of a bag of Kisses off the table and ate those over the course of about a week (she hid them, we all silently blamed each other) and left the wrappers under the furniture. Of course, those dogs also ate raw beef and fish with no problems.

79: If the population of China walked past you in single line, the line Would never end because of the rate of reproduction

What if they ran past you? What if the entire population of Canada walked past you really slow? Relativity, people.

101: If you sneeze too hard, you can fracture a rib. If you try to suppress a sneeze, you can rupture a blood vessel in your head or neck and die.

Pics, or it never happened. Seriously, if you burst a capillary and die suppressing a sneeze, I'm betting that the sneeze was a bit player in a much bigger comedy.

107: Question - This is the only food that doesn't spoil. What is this? Ans. - Honey

You know, I really should get some new glasses. I read this the first time as 'anus honey'.

Can't lick my elbow though.

2007-02-28 02:50:15 PM
I'm pretty sure I could lick my elbow if I did some stretching (at the shoulder, not the tongue) but I pulled a muscle in my rib cage the other day sneezing and anything that torqs my upper body hurts right now. Why is it we guys get all excited by a long tongue. I'd thing that would be more of a turn on for women.
