Dumber than smart

For those who find themselves dumber than smart and smarter than dumb, and just try to find excuses for their incompetence. We are all far from perfect, but the least we can do is aspire towards it.

Multimedia search engine

A cool music, movie, and actor search engine that sorts search results by affinity to what you actually searched for.
A good way to discover new bands and movies through your taste in the subject.

Enjoy!

Interesting coincidence

For those who might feel concerned, the silicon gel used in breast implants was invented by... General Electric.

:-)

It's freeky how the answers are soooooo simple.
Enjoy...

tip: all the ones I found were simple every-day expressions (EXACTLY like the example), requiring only common sense or basic knowledge.

what the...? (alcohol related)

The word "toast," meaning a wish of good health, started in ancient Rome, where a piece of toasted bread was dropped into wine.

The origin of the word cocktail is said to have come from the metaphor of the morning rooster while drinking small quantities of alcohol at the break of dawn to lessen the effect of a hang-over, & also from putting a cock's tail in the glass to mark it as alcoholic (this came after).

The longest bar in the world is 684 feet (or about 208.5 meters) long and is located at the New Bulldog in Rock Island, Illinois... bloody americans.

Each molecule of alcohol is less than a billionth of a meter long and consists of a few atoms of oxygen, carbon and hydrogen. At least you know now what's going down your throat.

One glass of milk can give a person a .02 blood alcohol concentration on a Breathalyzer test. That’s enough in some places for persons under age 21 to lose their drivers license and be fined.

If a young Tiriki (Kenya) man offers beer to a woman and she spits some of it into his mouth, they are engaged to be married. Hmmmmm....that makes the single life seem a little more attractive.

In the 1600's thermometers were filled with brandy instead of mercury... Ever got drunk with Brandy and felt a little warmer?

Methyphobia is fear of alcohol... back to that dream I had after a weery Friday night.

Dipsomania refers to an abnormal or insatiable craving for alcohol... back to just before that weery Friday night.

"The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" is commonly believed to be the only English sentence devised to include all the letters of the alphabet. However, typesetters have another such sentence: "Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs."

Most vegetable, and virtually all fruit juices, contain alcohol.

There is a cloud of alcohol in outer space with enough alcohol to make four trillion-trillion drinks. It's free for the taking. . . but it's 10,000 light years away.

Chinese fortune...

Cow with no legs, ground beef.

A man who sneezes without his hanky takes matters into his own hands.

A man who drops his watch in the toilet is bound to have a shitty time.

He who thinks by the inch and talks by the yard deserves to be kicked by the foot.

Never have sex with a stranger unless you are stranger than them.

Babies conceived on the back seat of a car with automatic transmission grow up to be shiftless bastards.

War does not determine who is right, war determines who is left.

Just because men have one, doesn't mean they have to be one.

Support bacteria -- it's the only culture some people have!

Men who run behind cars get exhausted.

It's ok to let a fool kiss you, but don't let a kiss fool you.

Virginity is like bubble, one prick & it's all gone.

I am what I am...
