    Posting comments early morning before coffee is not such a good idea.

    TIL William Wrigley Jr. began by selling soap and offered baking powder as an incentive to buy it. Finding the baking powder more popular, he switched to selling it instead and gave his customers gum as incentive. Again, he found that the gum was more popular and began to sell it instead.

    Today I learned that the box of cereal with Michael Phelps Olympic picture on it. And with the added sharpee marker art my old coworker did on it. A bong and the saying, "Before I eat a bowl, I smoke a bowl."
    Well that box, was in the refrigerator where I used to work for years. It was our prize possession. I used to clean out the fridge from time to time, and always set that box back in there. I really liked that box alot. Someone threw that box away finally. :/ *kitten*. 1f2dkkwvivms.jpg

    TIL the sun loses about 6 million tons of mass every second due to nuclear fusion and the solar wind. Despite losing that much material, it has only lost about 0.05% of it's original mass over the past 4.5 billion years.

    TIL that when you leave your deodorant in a hot car it melts. And when you open it, it explodes everywhere. AND when it explodes everywhere and you have the AC running in said car it hardens when it lands. I learned this because it happened to me on my way into work this morning, and now the inside of my car looks like someone was videoing a porno in my car because there is white globs all over. So there's that

    This is terrible. And it also made me laugh.
