The phrase "piss poor" comes from back in the day, poor would save thier urine and sell it to trappers who would use it to treat and tan hides. Then there was "So poor didnt have a pot to piss in" also came from same era, literally so poor you didnt have a pot to collect your urine

 

Also, Kellogs Corn Flakes were originally released as a medicine cereal to curb masturbation habits, the Kellogs brothers were freaks when it came to that

sure it wasn't pornflakes,  or was it rice krispys ...when pour milk on it you can hear snatch, nipple and crotch

You can’t bring a Furby to the Pentagon.

Since its release in 1998, Furbies have been a staple in the toy industry. You may find them adorable or creepy, but one thing for sure is that the American government doesn’t trust them. If you’ve ever encountered conspiracy theories about satanic Furbies, you’d be surprised that Furbies are banned from the Pentagon. One of Furby’s main features is speech imitation.  Since most (if not all) of the communications in the Pentagon are confidential, they can’t risk a rogue Furby leaking everything to the public. As of 1999, the National Security Agency has banned Furbies from the Pentagon.

7-UP is a straightforward name. 

When Charles Leiper Grigg created in 7-UP in 1929, he named it after the original 7-ounce bottle (7) and the direction that the bubbles go in a soda (up).

Americans eat enough burgers to circle the earth over 32 times.

Americans eat an estimated 13 billion hamburgers each year, which is enough to go around the Earth more than 32 times.

When forming a burger for the grill, aim for a ¾" to 1" thickness and a 3" to 4" diameter. The burgers will shrink slightly as they cook, so you want the raw patties to skew a little larger than the buns onto which they'll eventually land. so say 3.5 inches

The equatorial circumference of Earth is 24,901 miles (40,075 km). However, from the North Pole to the South Pole, the so-called meridional circumference is smaller, at 24,860 miles (40,008 km).

inches in a mile 63360 so divide 3.5 = 18,102.85714285714 round out 18,102.86 in a mile now times 24,901 = 450,779,245.7142857 roundout   is 450,779,245.71 burgers arournd the world so times 32 = 14,424,935,862.72 burgers have been eaten in a year  TBB let the math speak

A second is called a second for a reason.

The first division of an hour is by minutes. If you divide minutes, the next measurement is by seconds. The term “seconds” derives its name from being the second way to split an hour.

Bees have 5 eyes.

The 3 small eyes on a bee’s head detect light and help them escape from predators approaching from above. The 2 visible front eyes help them with navigation and recognizing shapes.

Kuchisabishii is Japanese for unconscious eating.

It describes the act of eating when you're not hungry because your mouth is lonely.

Cleopatra, the queen of Egypt, supposedly credited her health and good looks to her love of pickles, and Roman general Julius Caesar was said to have fed pickles to his troops in the belief that they would make them stronger.
