In germany it's legal to carry guns, which were designed before 1871 and which are using spark ignition, without having a liscence to carry them. You do need a liscence to buy blackpowder and to reload them though.

On average, 4 out of 5 people involved in gang rape enjoyed it.

 

Venom is something that kills you if injected into you (such as a bite). Poison is something that kills you if you eat it. So you could drink venom and be completely fine (assuming you have absolutely no wounds between your mouth and stomach).

 

Ambidexterity is when you are good at using both your left and right hand. It comes from the latin words ambi (both) and dexter (right). So it quite literally means "two right hands".

Ambisinister is when you got poor motor skills with both your left and right hand. it comes from the latin words ambi (both) and sinister (left). So it quite literally means "two left hands".

 

Electricity moves at the speed of light, and so does radio waves such as WiFi signals. People often assume that fiber is better for networking because the info travels faster. The reality is that it's better because the signal is much MUCH cleaner, so less error checks and corrections has to be done (there are more reasons why fiber is better, but it becomes more complicated to explain).

 

"Luke, I am your father" is never said in any of the Star Wars movies.

 

When a flat chested girl hugs you, she holds you closer to your heart than a big breasted girl.

 

The full name of "Pablo Picasso" was:

Pablo Diego José Francisco de Paula Juan Nepomuceno María de los Remedios Cipriano de la Santísima Trinidad Ruiz y Picasso

 

Mozart composed a song called "leck mich im Arsch" which translates to "Lick me in the arse".

There is a petite woman I'm interested in that I think feels a little intimidated because my ex-wife and last serious girlfriend were both double D.  I'm gonna use this.  :)

60% of all statistics are taken out of thin air.

Just like this one :P

The quote is "No, I am your father". Not "Luke, I am your father".

 

 

Another Star Wars fact: Ewoks are never called Ewoks in the movie Return of the Jedi. We only know the names of them because they were called Ewoks in the credits, in books, toys and other non-movie things.
