    What a pickle back shot is. A shot of Jameson followed by a shot of pickle juice. I’m told it is amazingly awesome. Sounds disgusting to me.

    If you let your sbs sample sit in the pao for more than a few minutes, before titration... It will ruin the sample and you will have to walk all the way back to discharge for a new sample... Which is lame

    Mama June passed up 5000 to do a lap dance for some guy. I’d shake it for a Cadbury egg and some lottery scratchers at my age

    Did you know that if you keep calling someone by a name they ask you not to call them by it is considered intentionally hurtful? (hint hint, nudge nudge)

    The metric system is much easier to convert than the English system is. Curse the pirates!!! :s

    TIL Garfield was never intended to be funny. It was a conscious (and very successful) effort to create a comic strip that would be marketable and make money, not laughs.

    TIL Why people give "The Finger" gesture. The middle finger is the penis and the curled fingers on either side are the testicles. By doing it, you are offering someone a phallic gesture. Basically go *kitten* yourself.
    I now like this much better than I did five minutes ago. Also, search Wikipedia for The Finger...it does not disappoint.

    so that old tale about bandit archers getting their middle fingers cut off if they got caught is a fib?
