I’m currently sat at the Salon getting my hair highlights redone. In other words, I have plenty of time to kill over the next 2-3 hours. So I am back on google doing what I love to do the most during my spare time … search for quirky facts on the web. How people even come up with some of these facts is beyond me. But they always succeed in making me chuckle. Well most of them do anyway. I tried real hard to come up with one myself and the best I could do was ‘Humans read their own message after clicking on “send” followed by plenty of typo corrections.’ Why are we always in such a hurry? I should probably quit and just stick to the one’s I found on the web, right? Lol …
Ok, so here are my top 10 for this week. I have included my first thoughts after each one. So I suggest you don’t read too much into them either and allow yourself to be surprised and laugh a little.
95% of people text things they can’t say in person ….
And I can guarantee 100% it will result in a misunderstanding.
Facebook, Skype and Twitter are all banned in China ….
So where do all the pics I constantly see Chinese tourists taking actually go?
During your lifetime, you will produce enough saliva to fill two swimming pools …
So at this rate, a water bed should be way quicker. Ewww, I know!
If you lift a Kangaroo’s tail off the ground then it won’t be able to hop ….
And you probably won’t be able to walk either if you dare try and get near its tail.
Heart attacks are more likely to happen on a Monday …
Make that Sunday night now out of fear of which day is tomorrow.
The longest time between two twins being born is 87 days …
Wait, whaaat? How is that even possible?
Women blink twice as much as men ….
Btw ladies, have you ever noticed we tend to apply mascara with our mouth open?
No piece of paper can be folded more than 7 times ….
Unless it’s a really poor report card – then one will find a way.
The name Australia contains 3 A’s and each one of them is pronounced differently ….
Now we are all sat saying Australia with an ‘oh yea’ smirk on our face.
Camels can hold a grudge and wait patiently for their opportunity to take revenge.
Any other camels out there, besides me? 🙂
You’re enjoying this post right now …
Sorry, it wouldn’t be me if I didn’t throw in a real lame one right towards the end!
Do you have any fun or interesting facts to share with me?
Needless to say if you’ve enjoyed todays post, then don’t forget to like and comment.
Until the next post, ‘Lets Keep it Strictly Lighthearted!’
Great post. I’m still smiling!

Thank you! Only one way to find out … time to get a piece of paper and tell me how many times you were able to fold it in half! If you exceeded 7 then you just busted a myth/fact! 😁

“The longest time between two twins being born is 87 days.” Now I wanna know how this is possible, too. Lol! And I don’t know about that thing with camels. They look super innocent, tho! HAHA

Ha! Love this! And we are blog design twins!
I’m still trying to wrap my head around the fact that “twins” could be born almost three months apart… how does that even work, LOL. Although, I did see a fictional episode of TV where someone was pregnant with multiples, went into early labor, and then they stopped the labor after the first one came out… so maybe it IS possible? Hahah
Lastly, I noticed the mouth open mascara process a few years ago and made a conscious decision to not do that anymore hahah… now I kind of duck lip when I apply it. So not much better I suppose.
Love your lighthearted blogging! 🙂
